    Nah, granny part was obviously a lie. It’s a play on sir mixalot, who had a song out late 80s or 90s and nosey a granny would know of sir mixalot, or funny enough to change his name for a cue

    ​@@GagzoD82 Sir Mixalot itself is a play on Sir Lancelot. Sir verb-a-lot was already a stock pun well before Sir Mixalot was known. Sir Mixalot merely caused them to become even more common. It was an obvious lie, but Sir Mixalot wasn't the reason.

    @johnny207........Mmm - he did when he wanted something! I was a big snooker fan back in the '80's and '90's [played in a number of amateur tournaments] and Steve Davis and Stephen Hendry came to our snooker club to play an exhibition match. When they both entered our club, Steve [Davis] immediately started greeting everyone, saying 'hello' and signing autographs etc. Meanwhile, Stephen [Hendry] just stood there silently. After a while, he looked at us all and said, 'Right - who's going to buy me a drink then?'

    I feel like very often the panelists lose sight of what the aim of this game is. If the aim is to let the opposing team guess wrong, surely when the story sounds or feels genuine, it must be a lie, right? Because... why would they sell a true story as true and allow the opposing team to score a point?
