A fact about onions: they contain a natural sedative. A fact about swans: in England, the Crown technically owns all unmarked mute swans in open waters. A fact about Ancient Egypt: they used crocodile dung as a contraceptive. All of those are true. None of them sound like they should be.

Welcome to The Unbelievable Truth.

Three more episodes of BBC Radio 4's finest panel game, hosted with magnificent weary precision by David Mitchell. The format is simple — four comedians, twelve subjects, sixty facts that are lies, fifteen that aren't. The trick is knowing which is which. This compilation covers: Table Tennis, Butterflies, Fish and Sausages. Ancient Egypt, Ice, Rubbish and British Food. Magic, Austria, Swans and Onions. Somewhere inside each lecture, hidden between the confident nonsense and the deliberate absurdity, are the truths. Some of them you'll spot immediately. Some of them you'll argue about. And at least one per episode will make you say out loud that it simply cannot be true — at which point it almost certainly is.
