Hello, welcome to Easy English.
So today, I wanted to play the game ''Liar''.
So I've enlisted the help from my sister, Ellie.
Hello, Ellie.
- Hi.
Ellie, how confident d'you feel about beating me?
Yeah, I'm feeling super confident.
- Very good.
Let's go!
So we're going to play the game, ''Liar''.
And the way Liar works is;
Isi, who is behind the camera...
hello, Isi.
- Hello.
She has created some subject matters,
all to do with British or English life,
whether it be British animals, let's say.
And then, she'll say animals
and then myself and Ellie will take it in turns
to say how many animals we can name within 30 seconds.
And, if I say I can name four animals...
yeah.
Ellie's option is either to say five or more
and try to overdo my score,
or to call me out and call me a liar.
And then, I must therefore, name four animals in 30 seconds.
Got it!?
Makes sense.
Good, let's go.
- Very good.
Round one:
How many English actors can you name?
Um...
five.
Six.
Ahh!
I...
I really feel confident.
Seven.
Liar.
How many did I say?
Seven?
- Seven.
F**k, that's a lot.
Go!
Ah okay, erm...
Rupert Grint.
Er...
Daniel Radcliffe.
Daniel Day-Lewis.
Where'd that come from?
Emma Watson.
Keira Knightley.
Michael Caine.
...
It hurts.
Erm... and...
...
I can't think of anyone.
Argh... it's harder when the timer starts.
I hope there's not many film things...
I went Harry...
I went Harry Potter and then went completely off road.
It's Ellie's go and we stay within the topic;
English films.
Erm...
Is it, films set in England?
Good question,
yeah, let's do, set in England.
Set in England, okay.
Erm...
I will go for five.
Six.
Oh no.
Erm...

call you a liar.
No!
I didn't want you to do that.
Okay, ready?
And start.

Mr... no Mr. Bean isn't in...

Or anywhere England.
Is Stuart Little set in London?
I have no idea where Stuart Little's set.
Erm...
Phantom Thread, we watched it on (the) BBC recently.
You're done.
- No!
So my original plan was to be like,
Harry Potter: Philosopher's Stone...
No, you can't do that!
Notting Hill!
Notting Hill, that's what I was trying to think of.
Okay, so it's 2:0 to you, I think.
So, through my...
I'm just calling you out.
Through my stupidity.
Okay, we go into geography.
Back to you.
How many English counties can you name?
Five.
Six.
Seven.
Erm...

Liar.
Oh dear.
Do we have someone who would be able to tell
if I'm right or wrong?
I don't know.
And go!
Hampshire.
Wiltshire.
Dorset.
London...

Yeah.

Okay, erm... the next one is; English bands.
Oh no.
Okay.

Busted.
- One Direction.
- Yeah.

Oh yeah, I was getting to that.
Yeah, I think you can do a lot,

The pressure.

Another one can be...
I was going to say er...

Isn't like, a chicken Tikka Masala properly English?
Oh yeah.
- I was gonna say that.
I didn't think about that.
But, I didn't think of like, Shepherd's Pie and all of that.
