0:00:00 > 0:00:03Welcome to the quiz show that demands nothing less than perfection.
0:00:03 > 0:00:07These four contestants hope their knowledge is flawless.
0:00:07 > 0:00:09One mistake can give the game away.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11This is Perfection.
0:00:18 > 0:00:20APPLAUSE
0:00:22 > 0:00:26Welcome to the quiz show where only perfect play is good enough.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29Behind me are the contestants, the "usual suspects",
0:00:29 > 0:00:31in an isolation room.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34One of them will be randomly selected to play Perfection.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37They'll face a series of true or false statements.
0:00:37 > 0:00:38So if I said...
0:00:40 > 0:00:42..would you say that's true or false?
0:00:42 > 0:00:45If you said true, you'd be right.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48Answering true or false might seem easy,
0:00:48 > 0:00:52but if the contestant gets an answer wrong, the usual suspects come into the game
0:00:52 > 0:00:54to capitalise on their mistakes.
0:00:54 > 0:00:58You know how the game works. Let's meet the usual suspects.
0:00:59 > 0:01:05Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a London taxi driver from Enfield, London, and this is my first game.
0:01:05 > 0:01:10I'm Denis, from Glasgow. I'm an advertising consultant. This is my second game.
0:01:10 > 0:01:15Hi, I'm Mo, an administrator from Sheffield, and this is my fifth game.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19I'm Matt, a local government officer from Bournemouth. This is my sixth game.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- Welcome, all, especially Bill. - Thank you, Nick.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24- Looking forward to playing? - Absolutely.
0:01:24 > 0:01:29- Do you want to come down for the cash or hang up there? - I'm going to nick as much as I can.
0:01:29 > 0:01:35Welcome and good luck, as we find out who will be randomly picked to play Perfection.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Denis, you've been selected.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43Please come and play Perfection.
0:01:45 > 0:01:46Denis, welcome to the game.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49- Thank you.- Advertising consultant. - Yes.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53- People ask what you think of an advert and you go "Not bad." - No, I sell advertising.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56- Oh, you do?- Yes.- Denis, it's you versus the usual suspects.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Your team mates are now enemies. Their job is to stop you winning.
0:02:00 > 0:02:06Your failure means the prize money rolls over and one of them could be playing for a bigger total.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10Every game on Perfection is worth £1,000. Here's the good news.
0:02:10 > 0:02:18Nobody's won the past nine games so the prize fund currently stands at £10,000.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24That is the highest it's got to on this series so far,
0:02:24 > 0:02:27and you're in with a chance of winning it. What would you spend it on?
0:02:27 > 0:02:30About two years ago, my kids emigrated to Australia.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34I've never been to Australia so I'd really love to take my mum
0:02:34 > 0:02:37and my wife over to Australia to see where they live.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Go for a couple of weeks and take my mum round with the kids.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44That sounds great. Australia's great to see. A nice part of the world.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48Best of luck with it. You'll play three rounds, then a final.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Every time you achieve perfection makes the final easier.
0:02:51 > 0:02:57But if your performance is less than perfect, the usual suspects can step in, making the final harder.
0:02:57 > 0:03:01More of that later. Usual suspects, we'll switch you off for now,
0:03:01 > 0:03:05so you can't see or hear anything. Cheerio and away they go.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09Denis, you can now talk without giving away any vital knowledge. OK?
0:03:09 > 0:03:15- Yep.- Each round consists of four true or false statements, you're against the clock.
0:03:15 > 0:03:20You'll have 45 seconds. The first answer you give will be locked in. Happy?
0:03:20 > 0:03:23- Happy.- Ready?- Let's do it. - Let's play Perfection.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36- No, that's false. That's where Noel Edmonds was. False.- False.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40- False.- False.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- No, that was Billy Joel. False. - Thank you.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53I think that's false as well.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56I'm sure it was named after the inventor who was Mr Bunsen.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59With time to spare, you answered all four statements.
0:03:59 > 0:04:03- You sounded very positive. - I feel good about that, actually.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- Perfection?- Could be. Yeah, I think so. Yeah.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10Before we see how you did, let's bring back the usual suspects.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14Usual suspects, these are the four statements with Denis's answers.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Bill, has he achieved perfection?
0:04:16 > 0:04:18I'm afraid so!
0:04:18 > 0:04:21- Ooh. Mo, do you agree? - It's looking good.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Matt, is it perfection?
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Unfortunately, I agree. I think it's perfection.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- Say it again, Matt, say it again! - Not a chance!
0:04:30 > 0:04:34Not a chance. Denis, you need to have answered all statements perfectly
0:04:34 > 0:04:38to have won the round. How many are correct?
0:04:49 > 0:04:52Denis, you have achieved perfection. That's the way to do it.
0:04:52 > 0:04:58Very good. Let's take a look at the answers. If a statement is true, it turns green, false, it turns red.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07- Do you know where Postman Pat does work?- No.- Greendale.
0:05:12 > 0:05:17Piano Man is a greatest hits album by Elton John. It certainly isn't.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- Who did you say it was?- Billy Joel. - Absolutely right.
0:05:20 > 0:05:26The Bunsen burner is named after a Bavarian town. True or false? That is false.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29- It's named after... - Is it Heinrich Bunsen?
0:05:29 > 0:05:32Robert, actually. But you were absolutely right.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Well done. Fantastic.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37- You don't get a look in!- Not a lot. - Not at the moment.- Denis,
0:05:37 > 0:05:42with that perfect performance, you've made winning the prize fund easier.
0:05:42 > 0:05:47Here is your final board. The six blank spaces need to be filled with subject categories.
0:05:47 > 0:05:52Behind each category is a true or false statement. You'll need to answer all six correctly.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Here are your final round categories.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58Because you won the round, you can choose two categories.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01- Which two do you fancy playing in the final?- '80s movies.
0:06:01 > 0:06:06- '80s movies. - And...fictional animals.
0:06:06 > 0:06:11Fictional animals goes across. Usual suspects, see you in the next round.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13In the meantime, we'll switch you off.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Away they go.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19Denis, now the usual suspects can't hear you, what would you like to avoid?
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Prince Charles.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25- All I know about him is he's got big ears.- Anything else?
0:06:25 > 0:06:29- Binary code, cos that's just ones and zeros.- OK.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33Denis, you've made a great start to the game. Let's keep up the momentum.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Let's play Round Two.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45- False.- False.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52- That is true.- True.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00Erm... Do they have badgers in America?
0:07:02 > 0:07:04- False.- False.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12Now I believe that is true. But he wasn't a lady.
0:07:12 > 0:07:13True.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15We have time to spare.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18You answered all four statements.
0:07:18 > 0:07:23- Happy with that round? Not so happy. - The badger one's a bit weird.- Yeah.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27Before we see how you've done, let's bring back the usual suspects.
0:07:27 > 0:07:32Usual suspects, these were the four statements with Denis's answers.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Mo, has he achieved perfection?
0:07:34 > 0:07:36I think he has, Nick.
0:07:36 > 0:07:37Matt?
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Yeah, much as I hate to admit it, I think so.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44The only one is Boutros Boutros-Ghali, but I'm not sure.
0:07:44 > 0:07:49Denis, you need to have answered all four statements perfectly to have won the round.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Let's see how many are correct.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02Close, but no cigar. You needed to achieve perfection and you failed.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05You've let the usual suspects into the game.
0:08:05 > 0:08:10Usual suspects, can you steal the round? You need to change just one answer.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14- You weren't sure about B. - No, I wasn't sure.- I was thinking about that.
0:08:14 > 0:08:20- What do you think?- I think it's C that's wrong, but don't put your money on me!
0:08:22 > 0:08:28- I reckon it's B or C.- I think B. - We're going to go for B, from true to false.
0:08:28 > 0:08:33B changes from true to false, leaving A, C and D as answered by Denis.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Let's find out what the correct answers are.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39The Tate Modern Gallery is a converted church. True or false?
0:08:39 > 0:08:42It is false. It's a converted power station.
0:08:42 > 0:08:47Boutros Boutros-Ghali was UN Secretary General. True or false?
0:08:49 > 0:08:52True. You changed the wrong one.
0:08:52 > 0:08:57Usual suspects, you had a chance to steal the round but failed to achieve perfection.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01Could you achieve perfection at home? Still on for it?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04Wisconsin is known as the Badger State. True or false?
0:09:04 > 0:09:07It's actually true.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10David Walliams has appeared in EastEnders. True or false?
0:09:12 > 0:09:15Yes, he has appeared in two episodes.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Let's have a look at the board.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21Two choices on there already chosen by Denis.
0:09:21 > 0:09:26But because neither side won the round, those two categories will be carried over to the next round.
0:09:26 > 0:09:32So four categories will be on offer, making it a good one to win for either side.
0:09:32 > 0:09:36Usual suspects, I'll switch you off. See you in Round Three. Away they go.
0:09:36 > 0:09:41Denis, with four categories on offer, the next round is crucial.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44- Ready?- Let's do it. - Let's play Round Three.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57- True.- True.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06I've only ever had one of them, nutmeg.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10- True, why not?- True. - Got to come from somewhere.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18No, that's false cos it's Miller... No, Miller and Webb...
0:10:18 > 0:10:20- No, it's false.- False.
0:10:24 > 0:10:30- I may as well toss a coin. Cricket is a game I hate. So true.- True.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34With seconds to spare, you've answered all four statements.
0:10:34 > 0:10:40- So?- Apart from the last one and the first one and the second one
0:10:40 > 0:10:43and the one in the middle, I'm fairly confident!
0:10:43 > 0:10:48Before we see how well you've done, we'll bring back the usual suspects.
0:10:48 > 0:10:53Usual suspects, these are the four statements with Denis's answers.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56- Bill?- Notting Hill Carnival is a lot later than April.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00- Ain't got a clue about nutmeg and mace.- All right. Mo?
0:11:00 > 0:11:03I don't know anything about D cos I'm not a cricket fan.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06But I'm a bit unsure about B.
0:11:06 > 0:11:11Denis, you need to have answered all four statements perfectly to have won the round.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13Let's find out how many are correct.
0:11:18 > 0:11:24Just two of the four. Not perfection. You've allowed the usual suspects back into the game.
0:11:24 > 0:11:29Usual suspects, can you steal the round? Four subjects on offer here. It's a good one to win.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32You need to change two of Denis's answers.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35- It's C and A.- C and A.- Yep. - We're in agreement.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- A is true to false. - A goes from true to false.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42- And C is false to true. - False to true. Thank you.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Leaving B and D as answered by Denis.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Let's find out what the correct answers are.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Every August bank holiday.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04Robert Webb is Ben Miller's comedy partner. True or false?
0:12:06 > 0:12:08False!
0:12:08 > 0:12:13Alexander Armstrong. So there you go. Unfortunately,
0:12:13 > 0:12:18you had the chance to steal the round from Denis but failed to achieve perfection.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22Did you achieve perfection at home? Let's find out.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30False. He's one of the all-time great jockeys.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Usual suspects, had you achieved perfection,
0:12:32 > 0:12:38you could have made Denis's chance of winning the prize fund much harder. Let's see the board.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43Still only two categories on there, chosen by Denis.
0:12:43 > 0:12:48Nobody managed to win Round Three either. So we have four blank spaces to fill.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51So you'll take it in turn to choose a category.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Denis, you get to choose first. What do you fancy to take into the final?
0:12:55 > 0:12:56Cities.
0:12:56 > 0:13:01Cities goes in. Usual suspects, choose a category you think will trouble Denis.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05- Binary code?- Yeah, I thought that. - Binary code?- OK. - Binary code, please.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09Binary code goes in. Denis?
0:13:09 > 0:13:14- I'm scared to pick phobias, but I think I'll pick it! - See what you did, there!
0:13:14 > 0:13:18Phobias goes across. Finally, usual suspects?
0:13:18 > 0:13:21- I'm thinking equine anatomy. - Equine. I thought that.
0:13:21 > 0:13:26- Equine anatomy.- Equine anatomy, please, Nick.- Equine anatomy
0:13:26 > 0:13:30goes across. We now know our six final categories. They are:
0:13:35 > 0:13:39Usual suspects, we'll switch you off for the final time. Cheerio!
0:13:41 > 0:13:45- What do you reckon, Denis? - Binary code could be anything.
0:13:45 > 0:13:50Equine anatomy. They've got four legs, a tail and a head! Can't be much different!
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Denis, it's for £10,000. The largest sum we've had so far.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55- It's a lot of cash.- It's a lot.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59For £10,000, it's time to play the final.
0:14:01 > 0:14:08Denis, if you can achieve perfection you could leave with a prize fund of £10,000. Sound good?
0:14:08 > 0:14:11- Sounds very good.- If you fail, you leave with nothing at all.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13- Not so good.- But I've met you!
0:14:13 > 0:14:17There's always a bonus. Every cloud has a silver lining!
0:14:17 > 0:14:20I don't think that'll make up for not getting £10,000!
0:14:20 > 0:14:27But it will be great news for the usual suspects, as one of them could be playing for a rollover of £11,000
0:14:27 > 0:14:31on the next game. Let's play the final round.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36Denis, here are your final six categories.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46You must answer all six statements correctly to win the £10,000.
0:14:46 > 0:14:51There's no time limit, but once you've given an answer, your answer is locked in. Ready?
0:14:51 > 0:14:55- Yep.- Let's reveal your first statement. Is it true or false?
0:15:02 > 0:15:05Right. Ron Howard is the guy from Happy Days.
0:15:08 > 0:15:09No.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11- False.- False.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22Rikki-Tikki... It doesn't sound very wolfy. Wolves are hard and mean.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24That's a bit...
0:15:25 > 0:15:27- False.- False.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34True. Straight in with that one.
0:15:34 > 0:15:35True.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45101.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49- False.- False.
0:16:00 > 0:16:05I don't know if you can have a fear of phobias, cos then you'd live in a box, terrified!
0:16:07 > 0:16:09- False.- False.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18The fet...
0:16:18 > 0:16:20The name would...
0:16:23 > 0:16:25- True.- True.
0:16:27 > 0:16:32Those answers are locked in. If there's one mistake, you leave with nothing.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35- Which ones are you unsure of? - Rikki Tikki-Tavi.
0:16:35 > 0:16:40And the binary one. I knew the binary one would get me.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43- B and D, then.- B and D.- All right.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47Let's bring back the usual suspects and see what they say.
0:16:47 > 0:16:53Usual suspects, you can now see the final six statements and Denis's answers.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56Denis, your answers are locked in. You can't change them.
0:16:56 > 0:17:03But if you think you've made a mistake, you can get help from the usual suspects, but at a cost.
0:17:03 > 0:17:07Usual suspects, I'm going to ask you how well you think Denis has done,
0:17:07 > 0:17:11if you want to help and if you do, how much it will cost.
0:17:11 > 0:17:15All of you, you can't refer to any statement specifically.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18- Denis, who would you like to hear from first?- Spike - Matt.
0:17:18 > 0:17:23There's one that I am 98% sure that you have wrong.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27The others I think you've done pretty well on.
0:17:27 > 0:17:33So I'm not sure at the moment. I'll have a think. Come back to me.
0:17:33 > 0:17:39- There's £100 in it if you want to come down!- That'll do me fine, Denis! No!
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Let's have a go with Mo.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44Denis, I know you've got at least one wrong.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48But I'm not prepared to come down cos I'm not too sure on the others.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51- I don't want to waste your time or waste money.- Buffalo Bill?
0:17:51 > 0:17:58I can't help you here, Denis. Good luck, Matt. If he knows what's good for him, he should come down.
0:17:58 > 0:18:02I'm going to ask you one question, Denis, not to mess you around.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06How confident are you on the remaining... On the questions you've answered?
0:18:06 > 0:18:11I'm fairly positive. There were two I was a bit hazy on.
0:18:11 > 0:18:16But if you're saying one, then the other one we could work out.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19But I want more money than you. I'm going to be fair.
0:18:19 > 0:18:235,100 to me, £4,900 to you. Come down and let's do this.
0:18:23 > 0:18:28- OK. Sounds good.- So you're going to do it?- Yeah, I'll do that. - Negotiations are over.
0:18:28 > 0:18:35Matt has accepted £4,900 of the £10,000 pot.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Come and join us, Matt.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40OK, Denis, you've asked Matt for help.
0:18:40 > 0:18:46If you achieve perfection, it'll cost you £4,900 of your prize fund of £10,000.
0:18:46 > 0:18:52Matt, you've forfeited your chance to play in the next game. This is your only shot at winning.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Was it the right decision? Let's find out.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58Here are the final round statements.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Matt, which answers do you want Denis to change?
0:19:00 > 0:19:05The one I thought was incorrect was F.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- Where do you think they are?- Legs.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10Cool.
0:19:10 > 0:19:15The one that I was hoping you'd back me up on is the decimal number.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17Five in binary. Not got a clue?
0:19:17 > 0:19:22That was one of the ones I was hoping you'd be sure of!
0:19:22 > 0:19:26- Want to make some changes? - Change yours and go for it.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29- OK.- I'll change F to False.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32F changes from true to false.
0:19:32 > 0:19:36- Anything else? Or is that it? - Keep the rest in?- OK.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40- Keep everything else the same. - Everything remains the same.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43Lock those answers in. The answers are now locked in.
0:19:43 > 0:19:50£10,000 now at stake. £5,100 to Denis, £4,900 to Matt.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Six answers away. Let's see if you've achieved perfection.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59Starting at the top. Dirty Dancing was directed by Ron Howard.
0:19:59 > 0:20:04You had to think about it. You need this to turn red to get a good start.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Is it true or false?
0:20:07 > 0:20:09It is false.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11Least we got that one!
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Emile Ardolino was the director.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18Let's go to Rikki-Tikki-Tavi being a wolf. You said false.
0:20:18 > 0:20:22- It didn't sound wolfy enough to you. - No. Wolves are hard.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26You stuck with false even after Matt came down. You need this to turn red.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is a wolf. True or false?
0:20:30 > 0:20:31It's false.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38From a famous Rudyard Kipling story, he is a mongoose.
0:20:38 > 0:20:45- Oh.- Oh.- Where do we go from here. Memphis is the capital of Tennessee. Denis, you said true.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47- That was your quickest answer.- Yes.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50So, is it true or false?
0:20:53 > 0:20:55It's false!
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Does it ring any bells, Nashville, Tennessee?
0:20:58 > 0:21:03- Nashville.- Nashville, I'm afraid. Denis, Matt, I'm afraid you didn't achieve perfection.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Perhaps you achieved perfection at home.
0:21:06 > 0:21:11The decimal number five is written as 101 in binary.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13True or false?
0:21:13 > 0:21:16It's true, so that one's wrong, too.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20On to the next one. Phobophobia is the fear of phobias.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23You said that was plainly ridiculous. So you said false.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25Is it true or false?
0:21:25 > 0:21:26True!
0:21:26 > 0:21:28It's true, I'm afraid.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Then we get to the one that Matt came down to help you with
0:21:31 > 0:21:34and got you to change. A horse's fetlocks are on its neck.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37You said true. Matt got you to change it to false.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Is this true or false?
0:21:40 > 0:21:43It is false.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46- It's just above its hoof.- Hoof. - On its legs.
0:21:47 > 0:21:51So usual suspects, great news for you. The prize fund rolls over
0:21:51 > 0:21:55where one of you could be playing for a new total of £11,000!
0:21:56 > 0:21:59Looks like you're posing for a photo!
0:21:59 > 0:22:00OK!
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Denis and Matt. Bad news for you, I'm afraid.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07- You failed to achieve perfection so you go home with nothing. - Sorry, mate.
0:22:07 > 0:22:12- Enjoyed it?- No!- I know you haven't, Denis, you've hardly been here!
0:22:12 > 0:22:16- Matt, you've been captain. Enjoyed it?- Thoroughly. Had a fantastic time.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Lovely. Matt and Denis, everybody.
0:22:22 > 0:22:27Time to meet the next usual suspects hoping to play Perfection today.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31Usual suspects, please introduce yourselves.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Hi, I'm Dafydd. I'm a science communicator from Cardiff.
0:22:34 > 0:22:38Hi, I'm Linda. I'm a customer assistant from Manchester.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42Best of luck to all of you as we find out who will be picked to play Perfection.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51Mo, you've been selected. Please come and play Perfection.
0:22:52 > 0:22:57- Mo, welcome to the game.- Thank you. - We know you're an administrator. - Yes.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00- Any hobbies?- I collect Betty Boop porcelain dolls.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03- Betty Boop porcelain dolls.- Yes.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06- That's a narrow market, isn't it? - No, it's not.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09- A few about, are there? - There's a lot about, yes.- OK.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12- If you do well, you can buy a few more!- Yep!
0:23:12 > 0:23:15Mo, it's you versus the usual suspects. They were your team mates,
0:23:15 > 0:23:18now they're your enemies.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Here's the good news. Nobody's won the past ten games.
0:23:21 > 0:23:26The prize fund currently stands at £11,000.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28That'll do me!
0:23:28 > 0:23:31What would you do with £11,000 if you won it here?
0:23:31 > 0:23:34I'd like to take my mum on holiday.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36She's not been very well and she's 81.
0:23:36 > 0:23:41She can't travel abroad, and there's plenty of nice places in England to take her.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45Good luck. Three rounds and a final to come. Usual suspects,
0:23:45 > 0:23:48we'll switch you off so you can't see or hear anything.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52As soon as Mo makes a mistake, you'll be back in the game. Away they go.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56Mo, you can now talk without giving away any vital knowledge.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59- Ready?- Yes, fine. Let's go. - Let's play Perfection.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Round One. Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10- True.- True.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18- False.- False.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24- False.- False.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34- Sounds like it could be. True.- True.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38With time to spare, you answered all four statements. Good round?
0:24:38 > 0:24:43- 50/50.- Before we see how you did, let's bring back the usual suspects.
0:24:43 > 0:24:48Usual suspects, these were the four statements with Mo's answers.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52- Dafydd, how's she done? - As far as I'm concerned, that's not perfection.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56I think Tchaikovsky did write the music for Swan Lake.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59And Stinking Bishop is a cheese.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03- Linda?- I don't think she's got perfection this time.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06- I think she may have two wrong. - Same two as Dafydd?
0:25:06 > 0:25:10- No, a different two. - Which two?- B and C.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11OK, Mo.
0:25:11 > 0:25:16You need to have answered all four statements perfectly to have won the round.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25Just two of the four. You've failed to achieve perfection
0:25:25 > 0:25:28and let the usual suspects into the game.
0:25:28 > 0:25:33Usual suspects, can you steal the round? You need to change two of Mo's answers.
0:25:33 > 0:25:39- Tchaikovsky, I think. - A is definitely right. - A and C are definitely right.
0:25:39 > 0:25:43- OK. B is wrong.- It's B and D to change. She's only got two.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45- Yeah.- Do that, then.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47Being the pirate that I am,
0:25:47 > 0:25:52- we'll change B to true. - B changes from false to true.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55And D changes from true to false.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57D changes from true to false,
0:25:57 > 0:25:59leaving A and C as answered by Mo.
0:25:59 > 0:26:05Let's see the correct answers. If a statement turns green, it's true. If it turns red, it's false.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08In Porridge, Fletcher's first name is Norman. True or false?
0:26:11 > 0:26:14At the start they'd announce Norman Stanley Fletcher.
0:26:14 > 0:26:18Tchaikovsky wrote the music for Swan Lake. True or false?
0:26:20 > 0:26:22It's true.
0:26:22 > 0:26:26Habeas Corpus was a Roman governor of Britain. True or false?
0:26:26 > 0:26:27It is false
0:26:27 > 0:26:30so you know where this is going.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33Stinking Bishop is a variety of fungus. True or false?
0:26:33 > 0:26:34It's false.
0:26:34 > 0:26:39Congratulations, usual suspects, you have achieved perfection.
0:26:41 > 0:26:46Stinking Bishop is, in fact, a cheese. You were right.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49It's also, oddly enough, a variety of pear.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52Mo. They succeeded where you failed. They've stolen the round.
0:26:52 > 0:26:59- Yeah.- Usual suspects, you can now make Mo's chances of winning the prize fund that much harder.
0:26:59 > 0:27:03Here's how. Mo, this is your final board appearing.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06These six spaces need to be filled with subject categories.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09Here are your final round categories.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13Because the usual suspects have stolen the round from you,
0:27:13 > 0:27:17they choose two categories hoping to make the final harder for you.
0:27:17 > 0:27:22- Usual suspects, which two would you like Mo to play in the final? - What do we think?
0:27:22 > 0:27:25What about mythical beasts?
0:27:25 > 0:27:30- Yeah, I'll go for that.- It's quite hard.- Yeah, that's generally a guess one.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34So that one's going across. Mythical beasts.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37- New York?- What about New York City?
0:27:37 > 0:27:42- I should think the questions are a bit limited.- It just depends.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46- Could be a thousand questions. - OK, New York City. I'll listen to my team.
0:27:46 > 0:27:50New York City goes across as the second category in the final.
0:27:50 > 0:27:55Usual suspects, you've won the first round. We'll switch you off and see you in Round Two.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58Away they go.
0:27:58 > 0:28:02Mo, they can't hear you. What do you reckon on what they've chosen?
0:28:02 > 0:28:06Well, not too bad. Harry Potter there's a lot of mythical beasts.
0:28:06 > 0:28:10- New York City. I've been to New York.- Yes? What do you want to avoid?
0:28:10 > 0:28:13Prime ministers and battles.
0:28:13 > 0:28:18Prime ministers and battles. It's only the first round. You have two more rounds to find perfection
0:28:18 > 0:28:23- and choose your own categories for the final. That's the way forward. Ready?- Yes.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26- Shall we press on?- Press. - Let's play Round Two.
0:28:29 > 0:28:31Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38- False.- False.
0:28:43 > 0:28:45- True.- True.
0:28:49 > 0:28:50True.
0:28:58 > 0:29:00- True.- True.
0:29:00 > 0:29:03With time to spare, you answered all four. How did that feel?
0:29:03 > 0:29:07- Not too bad. I've been to Tallinn in Estonia.- You've been there?- Yes.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10Before we see how you did, let's bring back the usual suspects.
0:29:10 > 0:29:15Usual suspects, these are the four statements with Mo's answers.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Bill, what do you reckon?
0:29:17 > 0:29:21- Being the brain that I am, I haven't got a clue, Nick! - Thanks for your input, Bill!
0:29:21 > 0:29:25- Dafydd, what do you reckon? - That's exactly how I would have played that.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28All the same answers.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30That's not to say it's true.
0:29:30 > 0:29:32- Sounds promising. - It does, doesn't it?
0:29:32 > 0:29:37You need to have answered all four statements correctly to have won the round.
0:29:37 > 0:29:38Let's see how many you got correct.
0:29:44 > 0:29:45Oh! Nearly!
0:29:45 > 0:29:50Close ain't good enough. You had to achieve perfection to hold on to it.
0:29:50 > 0:29:53That means the usual suspects are allowed in once again.
0:29:53 > 0:29:56Usual suspects, you can see Mo's answers.
0:29:56 > 0:30:00You need to change just one of them. But which one?
0:30:00 > 0:30:04- Which one do you think is definitely right?- I think Fame Academy is right.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06And I think Tallinn is right.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09A and C, I think, are right.
0:30:09 > 0:30:13You think A and C are right. I think D is correct.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15What about B, then? Alex Rider.
0:30:15 > 0:30:19- I've never heard of him. - I don't know anything about it.
0:30:19 > 0:30:23There's something hitting true in there, with Alex Rider.
0:30:23 > 0:30:26Something's niggling in the back of my brain.
0:30:26 > 0:30:33- It's got to be a guess. - I say B.- I'll go with B, then. - You're going B?- Big gamble.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35Change B from true to false, please.
0:30:35 > 0:30:39B changes from true to false, leaving A, C and D as Mo answered.
0:30:39 > 0:30:43Let's find out what the correct answers are.
0:30:43 > 0:30:46Lemar won the first series of Fame Academy. True or false?
0:30:47 > 0:30:49It is false.
0:30:49 > 0:30:51He came third in that series.
0:30:51 > 0:30:55The literary character Alex Rider is a teenage spy. True or false?
0:30:56 > 0:30:58It's true.
0:30:58 > 0:31:01Alex Rider appears in the books by Anthony Horowitz.
0:31:01 > 0:31:06Unfortunately, usual suspects, you had the chance to steal the round from Mo
0:31:06 > 0:31:10but failed to achieve perfection. Can you achieve perfection at home?
0:31:10 > 0:31:13Let's take a look at the rest of the answers.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16Tallinn is the capital of Estonia. True or false?
0:31:16 > 0:31:20Everyone was convinced that was true and they were right.
0:31:20 > 0:31:24Escorial is the language of the Basque people. True or false?
0:31:26 > 0:31:28- False.- Never heard of it.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31El Escorial is a royal palace near Madrid.
0:31:31 > 0:31:35So, usual suspects, had you achieved perfection,
0:31:35 > 0:31:39you could have made Mo's chances of winning the prize fund much harder.
0:31:39 > 0:31:44Let's look at the board. Here it is. Two categories chosen by the usual suspects. Mo,
0:31:44 > 0:31:51because neither side won the round, the two categories will be carried over to the next round.
0:31:51 > 0:31:55So four categories will be on offer. Usual suspects, I'll switch you off.
0:31:55 > 0:31:58We'll see you in Round Three. Away they go.
0:31:58 > 0:32:02Mo, with four categories on offer, this is a really important round to win.
0:32:02 > 0:32:05It could prove crucial. Let's play Round Three.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17- False.- False.
0:32:21 > 0:32:22- True.- True.
0:32:28 > 0:32:32- Seems too daft to be true. I'll say true.- True.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40- True.- True.
0:32:40 > 0:32:45With time to spare, you've answered all four statements within time.
0:32:45 > 0:32:48A bit... I know one's right.
0:32:48 > 0:32:50- That's about it!- Really?- Yeah.
0:32:50 > 0:32:53Before we see how well you've done,
0:32:53 > 0:32:55time to bring back the usual suspects.
0:32:55 > 0:33:00Usual suspects, these were the four statements, with Mo's answers.
0:33:00 > 0:33:04- Dafydd, what do you think?- B is correct, but that's all I know.
0:33:04 > 0:33:11- Linda, has she done well?- B is correct and she may have another... I think she's got A wrong.
0:33:11 > 0:33:18You think maybe A is wrong. Mo, you need to have answered all statements perfectly to win the round.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20Let's see how many are correct.
0:33:26 > 0:33:28- Again!- Close, but not perfection.
0:33:28 > 0:33:32Which means you've let the usual suspects into the game.
0:33:32 > 0:33:37Usual suspects, can you steal the round? You need to change one of Mo's answers.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39- B is right. We all agree. - B is definitely right.
0:33:39 > 0:33:46I think Emile Heskey could be called Ivanhoe. Tresco and Bryher, I've never heard of them.
0:33:46 > 0:33:50- Tresco is a town in Cornwall, isn't it?- I don't know.- I think it is.
0:33:50 > 0:33:53- Giants from Cornish myth. - Don't know if it's a myth.
0:33:53 > 0:33:57Mary Rose definitely didn't sink off the Bay of Biscay.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59- So C or D, then.- It's C or D.
0:33:59 > 0:34:03Emile is a funny name anyway, so she might have called him Ivanhoe as well.
0:34:03 > 0:34:09- I don't know. It's up to you.- Sounds illogical. As captain, I'm going to change D from true to false.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12D is changing from true to false.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15So A, B and C remain as Mo answered.
0:34:15 > 0:34:18Usual suspects, let's see what the correct answers are.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21The Mary Rose sank off the Bay of Biscay. True or false?
0:34:23 > 0:34:24It is false.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26It sank in the Solent.
0:34:26 > 0:34:30Conjunctivitis is a condition affecting the eye. True or false?
0:34:30 > 0:34:36Yes, that's true. One of Emile Heskey's middle names is Ivanhoe.
0:34:36 > 0:34:37True or false?
0:34:40 > 0:34:42Yes, it is true.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45Tresco and Bryher are giants from Cornish myth. True or false?
0:34:45 > 0:34:49It is false. Usual suspects, you have achieved perfection.
0:34:53 > 0:34:57In fact, Tresco and Bryher are two of the Isles of Scilly,
0:34:57 > 0:34:59which are just off the end of Cornwall.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01Oh, dear, Mo. Oh, dear.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04- I did better than I thought. - Really?- Yeah.
0:35:04 > 0:35:09- Not good enough, though.- No. - They succeeded where you failed and have stolen the round.
0:35:09 > 0:35:14Usual suspects, you can make Mo's chance of winning the prize fund as hard as it could be.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17Let's see the final board.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20Two subject categories on there, already chosen by you.
0:35:20 > 0:35:25Because you won the round, you choose the next four categories to add to the board.
0:35:25 > 0:35:29That's two from this round and two that rolled over from last round.
0:35:29 > 0:35:32Which four would you like Mo to play in the final?
0:35:32 > 0:35:36- What about Battles?- Battles. I think so. Yeah, Battles.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38Battles goes across.
0:35:38 > 0:35:42- Asia? What do you think? - I'll go with Asia.- Yes, Asia.
0:35:42 > 0:35:47- Asia.- Looks like she's had a few drinks in her time, so not Liqueurs.
0:35:47 > 0:35:52- He knows me!- Charles Dickens could be an easy one.- Prime ministers can be nasty!
0:35:52 > 0:35:54- Which one?- Prime ministers.
0:35:54 > 0:35:56Prime ministers goes across.
0:35:56 > 0:36:00- One more.- What about poetry? That can be quite hard, that.
0:36:00 > 0:36:03Yes, let's have something that rhymes. Poetry.
0:36:03 > 0:36:08Poetry goes across. We now know our six final categories. They are...
0:36:12 > 0:36:15OK, guys, time to switch you off for the final time.
0:36:16 > 0:36:17Away they go.
0:36:17 > 0:36:23Mo, for £11,000, it's time to play the final.
0:36:26 > 0:36:32The all-important final. If you achieve perfection, you could leave with a prize fund of £11,000.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35- Very nice!- If you fail, you'll leave with nothing.- Well.
0:36:35 > 0:36:40But great news for the usual suspects, as one of them could play for a rollover
0:36:40 > 0:36:42of £12,000 on the next game.
0:36:42 > 0:36:46- Ready?- Ready as I'll ever be. - Let's play the final round.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51Here are your final six categories.
0:36:56 > 0:37:00You must answer all six statements correctly to win the £11,000.
0:37:00 > 0:37:04No time limit, but once you've given an answer, it'll be locked in.
0:37:04 > 0:37:09- Right.- Ready?- Yep. - Let's reveal your first statement. Is it true or false?
0:37:15 > 0:37:18The Andes. Cold in the Andes.
0:37:18 > 0:37:20Yeti, yeti, yeti..
0:37:20 > 0:37:22- False.- False.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30I've been. I'm trying to think.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32Manhattan Island.
0:37:32 > 0:37:33False.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35False.
0:37:41 > 0:37:43Crimea. Sedan.
0:37:43 > 0:37:44Sedan. Sedan.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47- False.- False.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56Krakatoa. Indonesia.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02- True.- True.
0:38:10 > 0:38:13I know he was prime minister, but whether it was over ten years...
0:38:15 > 0:38:17- False.- False.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27John Milton.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30I know Paradise Lost, but I don't know who wrote it.
0:38:31 > 0:38:33- True.- True.
0:38:33 > 0:38:34Mo,
0:38:34 > 0:38:38those answers are locked in. One mistake, you leave with nothing.
0:38:38 > 0:38:45- Which ones are bothering you? - B. I've been to Manhattan. It's an island, not a borough.
0:38:46 > 0:38:50- But I don't know.- So B is really getting on your nerves.- Yes.
0:38:50 > 0:38:54All right. Let's see what the usual suspects have got to say.
0:38:54 > 0:39:00Usual suspects, you can now see the final six statements and Mo's answers.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02Mo, you can't change an answer by yourself,
0:39:02 > 0:39:06but you can unlock them with the help of the usual suspects.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09This will, however, come at a cost.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12Remember, you can't refer to any of the statements specifically.
0:39:12 > 0:39:16- Who would you like to hear from first?- Dafydd.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19I'm not touching that with a ten-foot pole! No way.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22- You're not coming down for anything? - Definitely not.
0:39:22 > 0:39:27- Linda.- Hiya, Mo. I think you may have two wrong.
0:39:27 > 0:39:31- But I'm not sure and I'm not prepared to come down and help you. Sorry.- Next?
0:39:31 > 0:39:34There's only Bill left!
0:39:34 > 0:39:38- That's a big intro, isn't it? - Thank you! Very good.
0:39:38 > 0:39:43- Sorry, Bill.- Mo, I'm so sorry, there are too many irregularities there in my brain.
0:39:43 > 0:39:49I really wish I could help you. I hope you've won, but I honestly don't know. I really don't know.
0:39:49 > 0:39:55- OK. I'll go it alone, then.- You're on your own. £11,000 at stake.
0:39:55 > 0:39:59Six answers away. Let's find out if you've achieved perfection.
0:40:01 > 0:40:06The Yeti is said to live in the Andes. You had to think about this. You went for false.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09To get you started, we need this to turn red.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11Is it true or false?
0:40:13 > 0:40:17- I were worried about that!- Were you? - Really worried about that.
0:40:17 > 0:40:21- Himalayas. Does that ring a bell? - Yeah.- Is where it's said to live.
0:40:21 > 0:40:26The next one. In area, Manhattan is the largest borough.
0:40:26 > 0:40:30You said false. You've been there and you were angry that you didn't know.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32We need this to turn red.
0:40:32 > 0:40:38If it turns green, you go home with nothing. If it goes red, you're still on your way. True or false?
0:40:39 > 0:40:41Ooh!
0:40:43 > 0:40:48It is, actually, the island of Manhattan, the smallest of the boroughs.
0:40:48 > 0:40:53All right. Sedan was a battle of the Crimean War.
0:40:53 > 0:40:55Could you get three red in a row
0:40:55 > 0:41:00and be halfway towards the £11,000?
0:41:00 > 0:41:01We need this to turn red for you.
0:41:01 > 0:41:04Sedan was a battle of the Crimean War. True or false?
0:41:11 > 0:41:13The Franco-Prussian war was the one.
0:41:13 > 0:41:18Krakatoa is an Indonesian island. You've had a run of three reds. You need this to turn green.
0:41:18 > 0:41:22If it turns green, you're still in touch for the £11,000.
0:41:22 > 0:41:26If it turns red, you're going home with nothing.
0:41:26 > 0:41:30Krakatoa is an Indonesian island. True or false?
0:41:30 > 0:41:32I daren't look!
0:41:33 > 0:41:35- Ooh!- It's true.
0:41:37 > 0:41:38I'm surprised at myself!
0:41:38 > 0:41:41Let's continue. Look at that so far.
0:41:41 > 0:41:47For a board you said you didn't have a clue on. Four ticks on the right there.
0:41:47 > 0:41:54Four out of four. You're just two answers away from £11,000. All right.
0:41:54 > 0:41:59Let's press on. Gladstone was prime minister for over ten years in total.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01- Was this a guess? - They're all guesses.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03- Really?- All guesses.
0:42:03 > 0:42:07Wow. Luck's been with you so far. Can it hold out?
0:42:07 > 0:42:11Gladstone was prime minister for over ten years in total. True or false?
0:42:14 > 0:42:16Come on!
0:42:16 > 0:42:17Go on!
0:42:20 > 0:42:22Oh!
0:42:22 > 0:42:24Eeee!
0:42:26 > 0:42:33I'm afraid 12-and-a-half, so he was prime minister for over ten years in total.
0:42:33 > 0:42:36I'm afraid you haven't managed to achieve perfection.
0:42:36 > 0:42:40Can you achieve perfection at home? Let's check out the last answer.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42John Milton wrote Paradise Lost.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44You said that was true.
0:42:45 > 0:42:46It is true.
0:42:47 > 0:42:52You were one answer away from £11,000
0:42:52 > 0:42:57- on a board that was seriously ugly. - Stinky!- A stinker of a board.
0:42:57 > 0:43:02Usual suspects, fantastic news for you. The prize fund rolls over to the next game.
0:43:02 > 0:43:06One of you could be playing for a total of £12,000.
0:43:06 > 0:43:11- Good money, isn't it?- Fantastic. - Didn't she do well, though? Didn't she do well?
0:43:11 > 0:43:14- Fair play.- That was a nightmare of a board. Nightmare.
0:43:14 > 0:43:18Mo, you failed to achieve perfection so you go home with nothing.
0:43:18 > 0:43:22- Had a good time?- A fantastic time. I've met some nice people. And you.
0:43:22 > 0:43:25Very nice of you. Thank you. Let's hear it for Mo.
0:43:28 > 0:43:30That's all we have time for. Join us next time
0:43:30 > 0:43:34when our usual suspects have the chance to play for £12,000.
0:43:34 > 0:43:41But five out of six just isn't good enough. On this show, we only pay for perfection. Goodbye!
