Boris Johnson: A Faking It Special
Colorful and controversial, Boris Johnson has been one of Britain's most loved and most hated public figures. But was his relentless rise to the top littered with lies? Our Faking It experts analyze the words and actions of the former Prime Minister and his complicated relationship with the truth. The Watcher, The Listener and The Profiler uncover the lies, deception and rhetorical tricks that punctuate his personal and professional life. From his time at Eton, where he developed his "funny, bumbling, eccentric" persona, to Fleet Street, where he was fired for making up quotes, to Downing Street, where he was found to have deliberately misled Parliament. But it was the Covid crisis and revelations of lockdown parties in Number 10 that would test the former Prime Minister’s honesty to the limit.
