For anyone outside the UK, this might be a good point (heh heh) to mention the British habit of calling a ballpoint pen a "biro". The first functional ballpoint was invented by the Hungarian László Bíró and his name stuck here as a generic term for those pens, so please don't be confused if anyone asks to borrow your biro, unless it's Lee Mack, in which case it's fine to tell him to find one himself.
When I worked in an office, I used Pilot G-TEC-C4 pens. They were in lots of different colours and I would choose a different colour each time I had to write something in my diary. This made it easier to see where one diary entry ended and the next one began.
Seriously Jodie, as soon as you started on about your pens, it was obvious you were genuinely passionate about your pens. You seened too keen and earnest to be telling fibs You 2 are so lovely🎉
You have to remember that they have been doing this program for years with about 9 or 10 shows a season. Since Lee and David pretty much get a card every show, there just can't be that many yrue stories about their lives that they can do. David's turns of phrase are brilliant. "That pen was dead to me," "In an effort to make myself seem..normal would be an exaggeration."
Even though Jodi said she was going to make up a three point system on the spot, it was completely believable. By the end I was like "she's just pretending to make that up but it's what she really does" lol
Okay, you can get 10 for a pound in Poundland. My 3 point plan would be, buy 50 pens for 5 quid, give them to whoever wants them and be the popular pen giver. Keep a few for yourself, make loads of friends and live happily ever after!
I always have an assortment of Sharpies in various colors or sizes. I think I must have a vibe that says "these are not for loan" lol. Maybe it's the fancy Coach leather zip pouch they live in.
Brilliant 😂 Would love to see you do the wilty clips below (this is what they’re called on here) Mack and Keys - Lee Mack on Would I Lie To You? Justin - David Mitchell’s ping pong pal?

Here’s a thought- carry a cheap pen with your good pen that you don’t want to lose and when a friend or colleague asks to borrow a pen you loan them the cheap pen and don’t have to stress about your good pen 😎
I am a Cash Collector and I have to use pens a lot while I'm working but I lose so many of them each week due to various reasons so I can relate to not wanting to lend out a pen🤣🤣
I am very particular about my pens. I have two Parker ballpoints in a leather pouch, one with blue ink and one black. I also have a Parker fountain pen. When I am at my desk, I use pencils. I wouldn't lend pens out.
Cats Do Coutdown! :D Now those episodes would be loooong! Mind maniulation! ALWAYS carry a 'good looking' fake pen (to you) that you don't mind losing. In Jodie's case a nice one but with the tip slightly bent. You can still wait for it back and make sure you get it back, but you won't sit there worried about it in the mean time :)
As an add on, I have a large drawer in my desk at home with a huge number of pens, I collect them and am reluctant to lend them to people even if it is a pen I don't like to use
I've been using Papermate pens for 40 odd years, simply because they will continue to work if you're leaning on a vertical surface or even upside down!
It's a fine line with ones like this. Basically it's a choice of something David made up or something the production staff made up I'd have a pen management policy where I'd replace a pen as soon as it started to run out, but keep the old one for lending out. That would also justify collecting pens wherever possible as it would at least add to my stock of B graders.
A lot of people can't use fountain pens properly and won't ask for one because they look silly trying to use them, getting covered in ink. The old refillable types are very sturdy, the cartridge refill is just a disposable pen trying to be reusable...
My recollection of fountain pens at school is coming home with ink all over my shirt where it leaked- I’ve never been brave enough to have one since for fear of some sort of leakage ruining clothes
I am a fan of parker pens, I also have a thing for fountain pens. I would expect David to have a pen or pens on him but will use the BBC pen and then put it in his pocket when he leaves
I can relate to Mitchell in get furious about little things. Like people that higher or lower the volume on the TV and leave it on an odd number. That means I can't watch it. Anyone who does that is sick in the head.
@dave_h_8742 I don't really understand your reply. You mention 40, 50 (that's fine) 55? Fifty-five...? I'd wrestle the remote out of your hand and lob it at your head. Donate your TV to charity and check yourself into a mental health clinic. 55...? 'kin lunacy... smh...
My daughter worked for a solicitor a few years back and she brought this very posh pen home.She went to work the next morning and I couldn't resist picking up the said pen she left on the table.Now this was after close inspection a rather good quality pen and believe it or not it even had a little light on the end if you needed to use when dark to put your key in the front door.I don't remember how it got into my small box off similar items hidden on top off my wardrobe but I do take it out occasionally and admire it .😊
Nick's reaction n the beginning tells me he is not that kind of person. I am completely on David's side here, I love pens, and I'm the same. It's not ridiculous, it's just that different things are important to different people.
A few references in future programmes to Lee's trustworthiness and a lot of fun , I remember back to bygone days we had a teacher who wouldn't accept work unless done with a fountain pen , and one class where we had nib pens and actual inkwells on the desk . Thank God for the modern roller ball which combines the precision of the ever failing biro with the elegance of a real pen .I think there was a clue when David called it a BBC pen , but I really enjoyed your reactions and Jody would be good at this , still not sure about her pen policy .
Why not say to the pen borrower how it’s your policy to exchange Ten dollars for the pen that you only get back if the pen is in pristine condition. Too weird!
Btw - they are close to 100k and if you didn't dislike this why not sub? I carry A7 notebook + pen with me.. Easier to make notes while having notes on the phone, shopping lists, sudden idea flashes (which will otherwise lose for ever) ect.

The reason it was short is because it was the final round of the show before the winners were revealed. Round 1: Home Truths. The standard truth/lie format you're used to (Sometimes including a "Possession" card introducing a prop). Round 2: This Is My... A guest comes on and all 3 members of a team claim to know them. Guess which one. Round 3: Quick-Fire Lies. Same as round 1 but generally quicker to record and edited extra short to speed through a few different panellists. This is where Lee and David usually pull their own cards.
Saying "no need" is an exagerration. Having pen and paper lying about can always come in handy. Even for something as simple as leaving a note for someone, a neighbour maybe. There are plenty valid reasons they still get used.

Whether you think his pen policy sucks or not doesn't change the fact that it is true.
Everything is literal.

I'm a cleptopeniac. You don't want me in the same building as one of your pens.
Here’s a thought- carry a cheap pen with your good pen that you don’t want to lose and when a friend or colleague asks to borrow a pen you loan them the cheap pen and don’t have to stress about your good pen 😎
Here's a thought, that hasn't been a problem since 2001
Save your old used up pens for giving to people who ask for one.
But then people will think that I think it's acceptable to carry a bad pen.
Defo enjoying the reactions more now u guys know what we know
I use Pilot V5 Hi-Techpoint pens. (Mainly Black, but I also like to have purple, pink and light blue to make short easy-to-see notes). 😎😎
I am a Cash Collector and I have to use pens a lot while I'm working but I lose so many of them each week due to various reasons so I can relate to not wanting to lend out a pen🤣🤣

Parker pens for everyday use, Rotring for technical drawing/artwork

Last nights episode was very funny. Always get a laugh out of it. As far as Pens are concerned - just prefer one that works !

I think Jodie's drunk on this one and im here for it 😂
The Bermuda video is fantastic, deffo take a look
My pen policy is exactly the same as his.
Why do I get the feeling that Jodie didn’t really need to ‘invent’ that policy on the spot?
Pen Anorak. (That's geek to you)
You i mean. Jodie the Anorak, a lovely one, but still... Anorak!

OMG you missed the biggest opportunity then to say, "T-Rex here," "Marc Bolan there." Have you not heard of the band T-Rex? Hugely famous.

You can bring your own pen, but if the program has pencil’s so why do you used you’re own, when you used the bbc pen you’re pen stay safe in your bag.
Cant remember the last time I used a pen... It has been at least 6 years... Just no need in modern world
I was thinking the same thing. It is a very rare event to put pen to paper outside of administrative work.
