Episode 16 Perfection

Welcome to the quiz that demands perfection.

These four contestants will be hoping their knowledge is flawless

because one single mistake could give the game away.

This is Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Welcome to the quiz show where only perfect play is good enough.

We call our contestants the Usual Suspects.

They're in our isolation room and one will be randomly selected

to join me here to play Perfection.

They'll face a series of true or false statements.

If I said, "The aria Nessun Dorma was written by Puccini,"

would you say that's true or false?

Well, if you'd said true, I can tell you'd be right.

Answering true or false might seem easy

but if the contestant gets an answer wrong,

the Usual Suspects will be allowed into the game

to capitalise on their mistake.

So, you know how the game works. Let's meet the Usual Suspects.

I'm Ian, a market researcher.

I'm from Bridgend and this is my first game.

I'm Anthony, I'm a civil servant from Southport and this is my third game.

Hello. I'm Barbara. I'm a retired teacher from Purton near Swindon

and this is my fourth game.

I'm Mel. I'm a staff nurse from Nottingham

and this is my fifth game.

Best of luck as we find out

which of you will be randomly picked to play.

Barbara, it's you. Please come and play Perfection.

-Barbara, welcome to the game.

-Thank you.

-So a school teacher.

-I was deputy head of a large primary school.

-Deputy head!

-Yes.

-Ooh.

-Yeah.

-That's quite stressful,

-Very stressful.

I can imagine. So talking of stress, which one looks stressed and which looks calm?

I think Mel's got a pretty good handle on the game

because of how long she's been there.

Anthony's a very clever man and Ian's an unknown quantity,

so we'll see.

Good. Barbara, it's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

They were your team-mates, they're now your enemies.

Your failure will mean the prize money rolls over to the next game

when one of them could be playing for a bigger total.

-It would be much nicer to take the cash away.

-Absolutely.

Every game is worth £1,000. Nobody's won the last five games,

so the prize fund currently stands at £6,000.

APPLAUSE

So you can leave here on your way back to Swindon with £6,000.

-What's it going to be spent on?

-I want to start a small business.

I have Siamese cats, that I show, so I'm very into cats

and I want to be able to take their pedigrees

and put photographs of the actual cats in on the pedigree

and produce something to hang on the wall.

Well, if that's where you're going to put the money, good luck to you.

Here's how the game works. You'll play three rounds and a final.

Every round that you achieve Perfection makes the final easier.

If your performance is less than perfect, the Usual Suspects can steal the round,

making the final that much harder - more of that later.

Usual Suspects, we're going to switch you off,

so you can't see or hear anything.

And away they go.

Barbara, you can now talk without giving away any vital knowledge, OK?

-Yes.

-Each round consists of four true or false statements.

You only have 45 seconds and once you have given your answer, your first answer,

-it will be locked in, yes?

-Yes.

-Ready?

-Ready.

-Then let's play Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

Good grief, that's my generation but I...

-False.

-False.

I think that's true.

True.

-I've never heard that. False.

-False.

-False.

-False.

With loads of time to spare, you've answered the statements.

-You look fairly happy with that.

-Not really

because there's a lot of guesswork going on there.

The only one I'm fairly sure about is the Klondike

-because I don't think it's in California.

-Where do you think it was?

-Alaska.

Before we reveal how well you've done, we'll bring back the Usual Suspects.

So, Usual Suspects, these are the four statements with Barbara's answers.

Ian, how has she done?

There's a couple of them I'm not quite sure of.

-Which ones?

-I think the first one.

-Yeah?

And the Agatha Christie one, C.

All right. You need to have answered perfectly to have won the round.

Let's find out how many are correct.

-Yes!

-APPLAUSE

Congratulations, Barbara. You've achieved Perfection.

Let's whizz through those answers.

If the statement turns green, it's true,

and if it's false, it turns red.

Peter Gabriel is a former member of Pink Floyd.

We now know that to be false. It was, of course, Genesis

that he was a member of originally.

A flitch is a salted and cured side of pork.

We now know that to be true.

Agatha Christie worked as a code-breaker in World War II.

We know that to be false.

She worked in a dispensary at University College Hospital, London.

And the Klondike Gold Rush took place in California, that's false.

We know that that's not the case.

-It happened... Where did you think it was?

-Alaska.

-It was actually north-west Canada.

-Well, I was close.

-Well, what's a border between friends?

-What's a border, yes!

Barbara, as a result of that perfect performance

you've made winning the prize fund a lot easier and here's how.

Here's your final board.

Each blank spaces needs a subject category.

Behind each category will be a true or false statement.

You'll need to answer all six to win the prize fund.

Here are your final round categories.

You won the round, so you can choose two categories to add to that board.

If the Usual Suspects had won,

they'd be adding two categories of their choice,

making the final harder for you.

Which two do you fancy?

-I'll go for soap operas.

-Soap operas.

-And poetry.

-And poetry goes across.

Wonderful. Usual Suspects, we'll see you in the next round.

See you later. And away they go.

Now the Usual Suspects have gone,

what do you want to avoid on that list?

Prog rock. I don't even know what that is.

Probably best to avoid it, then. What would you like to get across?

-I would go for inventors and phobias.

-OK.

You've made a great start to the game.

-If you're ready, we'll see if you can do just as well in round two.

-Thanks.

Let's play round two. APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False.

-False.

-False.

-No idea. I will say false.

-False.

And with plenty of time to spare, you've answered all four statements,

-although you didn't look so comfortable that time.

-No.

I don't like any of those, really.

OK, well, it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So, Usual Suspects, these were the four statements and next to them are Barbara's answers.

-Anthony, has she achieved Perfection?

-I don't think she has.

-You've got one wrong.

-Which one?

Mark Lawrenson was born in Preston but he played football for Ireland.

Barbara, you need to have answered all four perfectly to have won the round.

Let's find out how many you've got correct.

Oh!

-Oh, dear.

-Not so good. You failed to achieve Perfection by a long way.

-If you're going to fail...

-You've let the Usual Suspects into the game.

Usual Suspects, can you steal the round?

You need to change three of Barbara's answers. Which?

-D needs changing to true.

-D from false to true, please, Nick.

D changes from false to true. Two more to change.

The metric system could've have been in France. It sounds French.

It does, yes. It's a Latin type, you know...

-Shall we change B and C, then?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

B and C change to truth, please, both of them.

B changes from false to true and C changes from false to true,

leaving A as answered by Barbara.

Usual Suspects, let's find out what the correct answers are.

The Metric System originated in France. True or false?

It is true.

Adopted there in the late 18th century.

Sylvester Stallone appeared in a Woody Allen film.

Is that true or false?

It is true.

In the film Bananas, he played Subway Thug Number 1.

LAUGHTER

Yeah. Brunei is located on the island of Borneo. True or false?

It is true.

And finally, Mark Lawrenson played football for Ireland.

You know where this is going now.

Yep, it's absolutely true.

Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

Mark Lawrenson won 39 caps for Ireland.

Barbara, the Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed

and they've stolen the round.

Usual Suspects, you can now make it harder for Barbara to win the prize fund.

£6,000 - you can make it harder to win.

Look at the final board here.

First two subject categories chosen by Barbara

but because you won the round, you choose the next two categories.

So which two do you think are going to trip Barbara up in the final?

-Prog rock.

-Prog rock.

-We all think prog rock's a bit of a one,

-so we'll go for that.

-Prog rock goes across.

-Er...

-Phobias. All these odd Latin names.

-Shall we go for that?

-OK, go for that one.

-Phobias as well, please, Nick.

-Phobias goes across

and becomes the fourth of six.

Congratulations, you've won the second round, time to switch you off

and we'll see you in round three.

And away they go.

-I think you're about to find out what prog rock is.

-I thought that.

You have one more chance to find Perfection.

-Are you ready to play the next round?

-Yes.

-Good.

Let's play round three.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

Crikey. The Full Monty.

-True.

-True.

Clean and jerk.

-False.

-False.

-True.

-True.

-Augustus. True.

-True.

And with time to spare, you've answered all four.

-More confident at the end of the round.

-Yes, definitely.

I like champagne, so I hope I've got it right.

I like Chardonnay, as well!

OK, before we real how well you've done, we'll bring back the Usual Suspects.

Usual Suspects, these are the four statements with Barbara's answers.

Mel, what do you make of her answers?

Pretty good, really, yeah. A could be true or false for all I know.

Barbara, the moment of truth.

You need to have answered perfectly to win the round.

Let's find out how many are right.

Three out of four's close but that's not good enough.

You need to achieve absolute Perfection and you failed to do that.

You've let the Usual Suspects into the game.

Usual Suspects, can you steal the round?

You need to change one of Barbara's answers. Which one?

-A.

-A.

-Are you definite?

I think he wishes he wrote it but I don't think he did.

Yeah, all right. I'll go with the boys for once.

A from true to false, please.

A from true to false, leaving B, C and D as answered by Barbara.

Let's find out what the correct answers area.

This is the key one, really, right at the top.

Richard Curtis wrote The Full Monty. Is this true or false?

-It's false.

-That's it.

APPLAUSE

Written by Simon Beaufoy.

So you know where this is going now, don't you?

Clean and jerk is a technique in boxing. True or false?

It's false. It's weight-lifting.

Champagne can be made from Chardonnay grapes. True or false?

True. It's usually made from Chardonnay grapes, though you can make it from a Pinot Noir grape.

The month of August is named after a Roman emperor. True or false?

It is, of course, true.

Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

As you said, named after Augustus Caesar.

-You said that, didn't you?

-Yes.

And the Usual Suspects have stolen the round.

You now have the opportunity

to make Barbara's chances of winning the prize fund much harder.

Let's see the final board.

Four subjects on there.

You won the round, so you may choose the last two categories.

What's it going to be? What could trip her up in the final?

I think, after that last round, British film.

-Yeah.

-We could do that.

-British film, please, Nick.

British film goes across.

-And the final category?

-Phone lines is a bit weird, so we'll go for that, thank you.

Phone lines becomes the sixth one.

We now know our six final categories. They are:

OK, guys, time to switch you off for the final time. See you later.

And away they go.

What do you think of those last two?

Erm, I might be all right with British films, it just depends.

Phone lines, I've no idea what it's likely to be, so we'll see.

OK, Barbara, it is for £6,000

and it is time to play the final.

APPLAUSE

Barbara, this is the all-important final.

-You could be leaving with a prize fund of £6,000.

-Wow.

-That's good, isn't it?

-It is very good.

If you fail, you'll leave with nothing. Not so good.

That would be great news for the Usual Suspects

because one of them could be playing for a rollover of £7,000

on the next game.

-If you're ready...

-I'm ready.

Let's play the final round.

APPLAUSE

Here are your six final categories.

You must answer all six statements correctly to win £6,000.

-Think carefully. No time limit.

-Thank you.

-Once you've given an answer, your first answer, it's locked in.

-Right.

If you're ready to go, we'll reveal your first statement.

Please tell me whether you believe it to be true or false.

Oh!

I know what Peter Beale looks like.

Pete Beale, Pete Beale.

Is it Pete?

I think I'm going to say false.

False.

-True.

-True.

Is it progressive rock, I wonder, prog rock?

Er, Rick Wakeman.

If he's a member of the band Yes, I think I've got to say no.

-False.

-False.

I've heard of the fear of fur but whether it would be doraphobia...

What would "dora" come from?

I'll say it's true.

True.

I can't imagine in what context

unless he was on TV at the time in it.

I've seen the film Alfie...

but I don't remember Benny Hill, so I'll say false.

False.

I'll say false.

False. Thank you, Barbara. Those answers are now locked in.

If there's one mistake, you'll leave with nothing.

Which ones are you unsure of?

I'm not sure who played...

Whether there was a Pete Beale, a brother of Ian,

earlier on when I wasn't watching

and so whether that's a possible, I don't know.

OK, well, let's bring back the Usual Suspects

and see what they've got to say.

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements and Barbara's answers.

Barbara, you can't change your answers by yourself

but you can unlock the board with the help of the Usual Suspects

but this would come at a cost.

Usual Suspects, I'm going to ask you to tell me how well you think Barbara has done,

if you want to help and if you do, how much it will cost.

Remember, you can't refer to any of the statements specifically.

-Barbara, who would you like to hear from first?

-Mel, please.

-Mel?

-I can't help you. I'm just not sure on too many of them.

-I'm sorry but I wish you well.

-Thank you. Thanks.

-Anthony?

-Hi, Barbara.

I can categorically tell you, I'm 100% certain, you've got one wrong.

With there being potentially £7,000 to play for next time,

-I'm going to sit here and hope to play for that. Sorry.

-Right.

OK. What about Ian?

There's a couple I just haven't got a clue on, to be honest

and I wouldn't be of any help to you at all, I'm afraid.

But you've got £6,000 to play with. You can make an offer.

-Are you married, Barbara?

-Yes.

Did you get any advice when you came to the show from your other half?

No, he just said don't come back without the money.

-Is that...?

-Yeah.

-LAUGHTER

Like I say, you've got £6,000 to play with.

Anthony might have one that I'm a bit uncertain of,

so I couldn't persuade you with £3,000?

-No, I'm going to...

-How about 4,000?

Erm, bearing in mind that I know it's going to be £7,000 next time,

I'm going to sit tight.

I'm sorry, Barbara.

-Would you come down for anything at all?

-I'm saying no.

It would seem that negotiations are completed

-and no-one is willing to help.

-Right.

-So you are on your own.

-Yes.

£6,000 at stake, six answers away

-and no home if you don't come back with some cash.

-Yes.

I'll be on the street corner.

Let's find out whether you've achieved Perfection.

If the statement turns green, it's true.

If it turns red, it's false.

Right, let's start at the top. It seems a sensible place to start.

John Altman played Pete Beale in EastEnders. You said false.

We need this to turn red for you to get off to a good start.

Is it true or false?

It is false. APPLAUSE

-John Altman played Nick Cotton.

-Oh, right.

-Or Nasty Nick Cotton, as he was sometimes known.

-Nasty Nick.

-Pete Beale was the father of Ian Beale.

-Oh, right.

-He was a market stallholder.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-OK, moving on.

Home Thoughts, From Abroad is by Rudyard Kipling.

You said that was true. We need this to turn green.

Is it true or false?

-Oh!

-It's false, I'm afraid. GROANING

I was sure about that one, too!

-Robert Browning.

-Yeah.

-So there you go.

What a shame. Barbara, you didn't manage to achieve Perfection.

Can you still achieve Perfection at home? Let's continue on through.

Rick Wakeman was a member of the band Yes. Is that true or false?

-Oh, I didn't...

-It was actually true.

And prog rock is progressive rock. It's shortened to prog rock.

Doraphobia is the fear of fur. You said that was true. Is that true or false?

It is true, actually.

Benny Hill appeared in the film Alfie. Is that true or false?

It is false.

Cheryl Cole has been the voice of the Speaking Clock.

Is that true or false, finally?

-It's true, actually.

-Oh!

-She did it for Comic Relief.

-Oh, fair enough, yeah.

So what have you done? Three out of six. So, you know...

-Well, I had a shot at it.

-You did have a shot at it.

The shot missed but you did get 50:50, which is not bad.

You're not going home with a board full of crosses.

Usual Suspects, good news for you. The prize fund rolls over

and one of you could be playing for a total of £7,000.

Little smug smiles, there. All very happy with that.

-Barbara, you failed to achieve Perfection...

-Not to worry.

-..but I hope you enjoyed playing.

-I have had a terrific time.

-Ladies and gentlemen, Barbara. Thank you.

-Thank you, Nick.

-APPLAUSE

Thank you.

Thank you. It's now time to meet the next Usual Suspect

hoping to play Perfection today.

New Usual Suspect, please introduce yourself.

Hi. My name's Angie.

I'm a commercial manager for a football club

and I'm from Staines in Middlesex.

This is your first game. Good luck.

We'll now find out which one of you will be randomly picked to play Perfection.

Ian, it's you. Congratulations, you've been chosen.

Come and play Perfection.

-Ian, welcome down here to play the game. Are you looking forward to it?

-I am.

-And from Bridgend. Lovely part of the world.

-Yes, it is.

People don't realise how nice South Wales is.

They still think of all the coal mines and the Welsh singing

but there's more to Wales than that.

But there are groups of men walking around,

threatening people with close harmonies, aren't there?

You can't stop them. If you put a few together, they break out in close harmony.

OK, Ian, it's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

They were team-mates, they're now enemies.

As no-one has won the past six games, the prize fund currently stands at

£7,000. APPLAUSE

So if you go home with £7,000, what will you use the money for?

Well, it's my daughter's 10th wedding anniversary this year

and she got married in Vegas, so we'd all like to go back there

as a first ten years reunion, as it were...

-Oh, that'd be nice.

-..the whole family.

-Big family do over in Vegas.

-Fabulous, yeah.

OK, three rounds to come and a final.

Usual Suspects, we're going to switch you off for now,

so you can't see or hear anything.

As soon as Ian makes a mistake, you'll be back in the game.

And away they go.

-Are you ready?

-I am, very much so.

Then let's play Perfection. APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False.

-False.

-False.

Mm.

Damned spot.

I'll say f... true.

-True.

-Yeah.

-And plenty of time to spare.

-You seemed very confident.

-Yeah, I feel quite confident of those.

All right, it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

Don't forget, they'll be able to hear what you say.

So, Usual Suspects, these are the four statements alongside Ian's answers.

-Angie, has he achieved Perfection?

-Er, no, I don't think he has, Nick.

I know Columbo did work for the LAPD.

OK, well, Ian, it's the moment of truth.

You need to have answered perfectly to win the round.

Let's find out how many you got correct.

Two out of four.

Just not good enough, I'm afraid.

You need Perfection and you have not achieved it,

letting the Usual Suspects into the game.

Usual Suspects, can you steal the round?

You need to change two of Ian's answers. Which two?

-Er, well...

-You think B, then?

-Definitely.

Columbo did work for the LAPD.

-Can we change B from false to true, please, Nick?

-You can. One more.

A costermonger, I think they are fruit and veg people.

That's my family. I'm sure we were costermongers years ago.

-Yeah, let's go with that.

-Let's go with that.

-C from false to true, please.

-C from false to true,

thus leaving A and D as answered by Ian.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

The Chinese gooseberry is another name for kiwifruit.

True or false?

It is true.

The TV detective Columbo worked for the LAPD.

True or false?

It is true.

Traditionally, a costermonger sold fruit and veg. Is that true or false?

-There!

-Well done.

-It is true.

So you know where this is going.

"Out, damned spot!" is a line from Macbeth. True or false?

It is true. Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

It's a line by Lady Macbeth,

who is desperately trying to clean her hands.

So, Ian, this is your final board appearing.

The six blank spaces need to be filled with subject categories.

Here are your final round categories.

The Usual Suspects stole the round so they choose the two categories,

hoping to make your final harder to win.

Usual Suspects, which two would you like Ian to play in the final?

-I'd say definitely pop stars.

-Pop stars goes across.

-Shall we be mean and do pop music as well?

-Yeah.

-OK.

-Pop music as well, please.

-Sorry, Ian.

-And pop music.

Thank you very much. Usual Suspects, you won the first round.

It's time to switch you off and we'll see you in round two.

And away they go. Ian, with the Usual Suspects gone,

-what do you think of their choices?

-It depends on the era.

The Welsh like their music. They like a sing-song.

That's right, yeah.

-Are you ready for the next round?

-As ready as I ever will be.

Let's play round two.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-False.

-False.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False.

-True.

-True.

Again, half the time left, you just piled through it.

-So you must be pleased with that.

-I'm pretty pleased with those, yeah.

It's time for us to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So, Usual Suspects, these are the statements alongside Ian's answers.

-Angie?

-I reckon you've got it.

I'm not sure about Jacques Cousteau. I don't know whether he invented that.

You could have it, all four of them.

The moment of truth. Let's see how many are correct.

-Wow!

-APPLAUSE

Congratulations. You've achieved Perfection.

Let's have a look at those answers.

The bazooka is a Greek musical instrument. You said false. It is.

It is a type of weapon. Bouzouki is the musical instrument.

The playing area is baseball is called the diamond. True or false?

Yes, it is. The shape made by the bases is a diamond shape.

The British Empire abolished slavery in the 1600s. You said that's false.

It is, of course, false.

-1833, as late as 1833...

-Yeah.

-..it was, which I think is extraordinary.

And Jacques Cousteau co-invented the aqualung. Absolutely true.

So, what a great round, Ian.

Let's have a look at your final board.

You can choose the next two categories. Which two do you fancy?

-I think American terms.

-American terms.

I'll take a shot at politicians.

Politicians goes across.

Usual Suspects, I'm going to switch you off

and we'll see you in the next round.

And away they go.

-Whilst you're on a roll, shall we carry on?

-The sooner the better.

Let's play round three.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-False.

-False.

Er, what shall I say? False.

False.

-True.

-True. And finally...

-False.

-False.

OK, Ian. What do you think?

Well, the last one, I haven't got a clue, to be honest.

That was a guess.

Before we reveal how well you've done, we'll bring back the Usual Suspects.

So, Usual Suspects, these are the four statements and Ian's answers.

Mel, this time, has he achieved perfection?

Possibly not, no. I'm not too sure about D,

if that's true instead of false.

Ian, the moment of truth.

You need to have answered all four statements perfectly to have won the round.

Let's see how many are right.

That means you did not achieve Perfection,

which is what you needed to stop the Usual Suspects getting into the game.

That's what's happened now.

Usual Suspects, can you steal the round?

You need to change two of Ian's answers but which?

The one's that are right - Labour didn't exist when Pitt the Younger was a politician,

so that's definitely false.

New York State - I think New York State is separate from New York City,

so I think he's got that right.

-So it's the bottom two.

-The bottom two.

We'll change the bottom two, C and D, please, Nick.

-So C changes from true to false...

-Yeah.

-..and D changes from false to true...

-Yeah.

..leaving A and B as Ian answered.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

William Pitt the Younger was a Labour politician. Is that true or false?

It is false. He was, in fact, a Tory.

New York City is the capital of New York state.

Is that true or false?

It is false.

Albany is. That catches a lot of people out.

Charles Dickens published over 40 novels. True or false?

False.

Less than 20, he published, interestingly.

You know where this is going now.

50 Cent's real name, or as he's known, Finny Cent, is Curtis Jackson.

True or false? Yep, it's true.

Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

-Oh, dear, Ian.

-Oh, dear, oh, dear.

-The Usual Suspects have stolen the round.

-Oh, dear.

Let's have a look at the final board.

Four subjects on there at the moment.

So what do you want him to play in the final?

Sport doesn't appear to be Ian's strong point, so we're going to go with British Olympians.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-British Olympians.

British Olympians goes across. And?

Scientific names? That's tough, isn't it?

-Or arts.

-Arts is a bit highbrow.

-Arts is a bit varied.

-Not that he's not but...

-Arts, please.

Arts, please, Nick.

Arts goes across into the final two.

We now know our six final categories.

OK, guys time to switch you off for the final time.

And away they go.

They say that's a bit highbrow for you, arts.

That's what happens when you're Welsh, they think...

you've been living in a cave all your life but it's not true.

All right, Ian. For £7,000 in the final... Are you ready?

-I certainly am.

-It's time to play the final.

APPLAUSE

Ian, if you can achieve Perfection, you could be leaving with £7,000.

If you fail, you leave with nothing

and one of the Usual Suspects could be playing for a rollover of £8,000

on the next game.

Let's play the final round.

Ian, here are your final six categories.

You must answer all six statements correctly to win.

Think carefully.

There's no time limit but once you give an answer, your first answer, it's locked in. Ready?

-I am.

-Please tell me whether you believe the first statement to be true or false.

-I'll say true.

-True.

Oh, dear. Erm...

I'll just have to say true. I don't know. True.

True.

-False.

-False.

-I'd have to say that was false.

-False.

Ooh. 1980.

I'll say that's true.

-True.

-Yeah.

-And finally arts.

Absolutely and definitely true.

True. Thank you very much.

How do you feel about those?

The first two, I just don't have a clue at all.

The first two are the worry.

But the rest of them I'm pretty...

The Daley Thompson one, I'm not sure if he won the decathlon in two Olympics or just one.

All right, let's bring back the Usual Suspects

and see what they have to say.

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements

and next to them are Ian's answers.

Ian, your answers are locked in

but if you think you've made a mistake, you can unlock them with the help of the Usual Suspects.

This will, however, come at a cost.

Remember, you can't refer to any of the statements specifically.

Ian, who would you like to hear from first?

My old pal Anthony.

-Hello, Ian.

-Hello, there, Anthony.

I can see you've definitely got two wrong.

Definitely got two wrong. I might be open to a deal.

Ooh!

Do you want to hear from anyone else or do you want to see how big a deal?

I'll see Angie. What do you think, Angie?

I'm declaring myself out because there's one I'm not sure about.

OK. Can I have a word with Mel, then?

Hiya, Ian. Yeah, I know you've got two wrong

but the other four are a bit ropy for me, so I'm not going to come and help you. I'm sorry.

So you are left with Anthony.

The question is, here, how much do you want to give him?

So what figure are we talking about?

-Well, we're on £7,000 at the moment, yeah?

-Yes.

OK, you're a lovely bloke and everything but I'm going to be quite hard-faced about this.

You're going home with nothing without my help, OK?

So I want £5,000.

-AUDIENCE GASPS

-You go home with £2,000.

-Phew!

I think it's got to be a bit fairer than that.

I'm willing to split it with you. £3,500 each.

No.

£4,500.

-No, I think, you know...

-OK.

You're going home with £2,500 or nothing.

-LAUGHTER

-I'm going to be hard on this, Ian.

-I can see that, yes.

-Come on, Ian.

-There's only one thing I have to say, Anthony.

-Go on.

-I'll go for the 2,500 but you'd better be right.

-Good man.

Good man.

OK, well, negotiations appear to have come to a conclusion.

I'm sure necessarily sure it's a happy conclusion.

Nonetheless, Anthony, for £4,500 of the £7,000 on offer...

please come down and join us.

APPLAUSE

OK, Ian, you've asked Anthony for help.

If you achieve Perfection, it will cost you £4,500...

LAUGHTER ..of the prize fund of £7,000.

Anthony, this is now your only shot at winning Perfection.

Have you made the right decision? We're about to find out.

Here are the final round statements.

All six answers are now unlocked.

Anthony, which answers do you want Ian to change?

OK, answer A. Alesha Dixon was a former member of Mis-Teeq,

-not the Sugababes.

-Mm-hm.

And answer B, it's not Conkers, it's Bonkers.

What about Daley Thompson, then?

Yeah. He definitely won his first Olympic gold in 1980.

-Absolutely positive?

-In Moscow. Yeah.

-So it's look you've won £4,500, then.

-Well...

Don't be hasty!

It does still come down to you. You have to make the decision.

What do you want to change?

A from true to false.

-Yeah, A from true to false and B from...

-True to false.

-..true to false, as well.

A changes from true to false. B changes from true to false.

C, D, E and F all remain the same.

-All remain the same.

-All the remain the same, yeah.

OK, there they go.

Your answers are now locked in.

£7,000 at stake.

Let's find out if you achieved Perfection.

We usually start at the top but as Anthony's come down to help you

I think it would be a good idea

to leave A and B and come back to them

because they're going to be the deciders, aren't they?

Let's start with C. Americans call a car's bonnet its fender.

Is it true or false?

It is false. APPLAUSE

It's called the hood. A fender is what we call a bumper on a car.

So, Shirley Williams is a former Bluebell Girl dancer.

Is it true or false?

-Yes.

-It is false. APPLAUSE

-We're doing well.

-And then we move onto E, Daley Thompson.

There was a bit of discussion about this one, too.

Let's leave that one till a bit later as well.

We move on to F. Henry Moore was a famous English sculptor.

We need this to turn green to get you halfway towards the money. Is it true or false?

It's green.

So, let's go back up to the top.

This is where it really matters.

Because, Ian, you said, "You'd better be right,"...

LAUGHTER

..before Anthony came down to join you.

Alesha Dixon is a former member of the Sugababes.

True or false?

It is false. APPLAUSE

Anthony was absolutely spot on when he said she was a member of Mis-Teeq.

-Never in doubt.

-So we come to the second one.

If this turns red, you're only one away from the £7,000.

If it turns green, you're leaving here with nothing.

So... Conkers was a UK number one for Dizzee Rascal.

Is that true or false?

It's false. APPLAUSE

-The track was, actually, Bonkers.

-You were right.

Now the one that you only had a brief discussion about.

You said you weren't sure about it, Ian.

If it turns green, you've won between you £7,000 -

£2,500 to Ian...

AUDIENCE LAUGHS ..£4,500 to Anthony.

If this turns red, you're both going home with nothing.

So, Daley Thompson won his first Olympic gold in 1980.

Is that true or false?

-It's true!

-Hooray!

Well done. Well done.

Oh, my word.

Well done. You have achieved Perfection.

You've got all six answers right and you are going home with cash.

That's fantastic news.

Anthony, what will you use the money for?

First and foremost, we've got a five-year-old boy

and we want to take him to Disney.

And my wife's engagement ring, I'd like to replace that

because there's a couple of stones missing and it's almost impossible to get it fixed.

That's really nice.

OK, well, the prize fund has been won,

so we reset the total back to £1,000 in our next game.

That's what one of you has the chance to play for.

What are you two chatting about now?

We're just having a love-in, you know.

It wouldn't have been much of a love-in if you'd got one wrong.

You wouldn't have seen me for dust.

Ian and Anthony, You have achieved Perfection.

You've won £2,500 and £4,500. You go away with £7,000.

Congratulations. APPLAUSE

-Thank you, Nick.

-Thank you.

-Cheers, mate.

-Well, please join us next time

when our Usual Suspects have the chance to play for £1,000.

But remember, on this show, as we've seen,

we do pay for Perfection.

Goodbye. APPLAUSE
