Who lies three times
Anyone who lies three times was a TV quiz . The title goes back to the saying : "If you lie once, you won't believe you, even if you speak the truth." The quiz was broadcast in German-speaking countries in the 1970s and 1980s.

In each episode six short film reports about curious circumstances were shown, three of which were fictitious. The gender-split studio audience had to guess which of the three stories were lies. It was not uncommon for very dubious representations to surprisingly turn out to be real facts. The group with the most hits when identifying invented articles received the so-called “Skeptics Medal” with the words “Veritas” ( Latin for truth) on one side and “Mendacium” ( Latin for lie) on the other.
