Season 1

Is That a Fact? is a South African celebrity panel comedy game show hosted by comedian Chris Forrest which attempts to separate the balderdash from the believable by putting celebrity tales under the spotlight, asking whether they're fact... or fiction.

Each week, four celebrity panelists take on the audience and each other in a variety of truth-discerning games designed to keep audiences guessing while simultaneously tickling the funny bone.

Each week celebrities spin extraordinary tales in pursuit of that exclusive and much-coveted prize: bragging rights as the Is That a Fact? celebrity champion.

Is That a Fact? is executive produced by Donald Clarke and Chris Green for Lucky Bean. The series producer is Kat Weatherall and the series director is Josh Feldman.

The celebrities featured in Season 1 are:
