If your nose is growing to Pinocchio-like proportions, then fib your way over to Cumbria this November for your chance to be crowned the World’s Biggest Liar.
Contestants at the annual contest have five minutes to tell the biggest and most convincing lie they can think of. The winner is then picked by a panel of judges.

Entry is open to all amateur liars (politicians and lawyers excluded) who fancy themselves as masters of deception.
