What Is “Liars” the British Thriller on Which Netflix’s Lies and Deceit Is Based On?

As much as we try to make it sound like the original is always going to be the
best, the story re-told loses its essence, we cannot deny that re-telling a
story is indeed a beautiful art, and it is indeed the very art that has given us
every tale we know. Think about it, every single idea that the world lives and
abides by is an idea re-written and re-told. Hence, it comes as no surprise that
Netflix is trying to do the same with its new Spanish drama series, Lies and
Deceit. Well, we are here to tell you everything about the show this series is
based on.

The brand new Spanish drama that revolves around the themes of truth, deception,
and trust is actually a remake of another spine-chilling physiological thriller,
Liar. The original show’s name also explains the Spanish title of the Netflix
series, which is Mentiras literally translating to lies. So, what exactly is
this British series all about? Here is everything you need to know about it.


WHAT IS THE SHOW “LIAR” ABOUT?

The British mystery-thriller revolves around a date between Laura Nielson and
Andrew Earlham, and how things go unfathomably wrong after that one interaction.
It all starts when Laura, who is going through a breakup, goes out on a date
with a newly widowed Andrew. However, something goes terribly wrong on their
date, which causes problems for them as well as their families and friends.
