  1. Claimed to be false after some further investigation. Joly has since insisted that the story is true, but that bin Laden was leaving the school at age 18 as Joly entered it at 6, and he has no memory of meeting him — something never stated on the programme.
  2. Lee's team's reasoning is that David had never in his life watch Kill Bill, which was actually incorrect.
  3. Notably beginning the show's tradition of Show, Don't Tell
  4. He surrendered on bluffing this question immediately because he didn't know who Raj Persaud is, or was a reboot is.
  5. Alright, Dave?
