Episode 23 Perfection

Welcome to the quiz show that demands nothing less than perfection.

Behind the screen are four contestants hoping their knowledge is flawless.

One single mistake could give the game away. This is Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Hello, hello, and welcome to the quiz show where only perfect play is good enough.

Behind me are the contestants. We call them the Usual Suspects. They are in our isolation room.

In a moment, we'll find out which one has been randomly selected to join me to play Perfection.

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

For example, if I said, Parry and riposte are terms in fencing.

Would you say that's true or false?

If you said true, I can tell you you would be right.

Answering true or false might seem easy,

but if the contestant gets one wrong, their opponents,

the Usual Suspects, will be allowed into the game to capitalise on their mistakes.

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

Hello, I'm Terry, I'm originally from Hull

but I now live in Chesterfield.

I am a retired lorry driver and this is my first game.

Hi, my name is Ross. I'm from Fife. I work as a tourism lecturer.

This is my second game.

Hello, my name is Freddie. I'm from Exeter.

I'm an administrator and this is my second game.

Hi, I'm BB. I'm from Glasgow.

I'm a lawyer and an event planner and this is my fifth game.

Welcome to you all, and best of luck, as we now find out which

one of you has been randomly picked to play Perfection.

Freddie, you've been chosen. Please come and play Perfection.

Freddie, welcome to the game.

A bit of a singer, are you?

Yes, I was lucky enough to audition for the English Touring Opera, years ago.

I got in as a chorus member, which was quite exciting.

-It's lovely, musical theatre?

-It's a lovely experience.

-When you're in amongst a whole bunch of singers that can really sing.

-Yes.

Freddie, it's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

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

Their job is to stop you winning the prize fund, because that'll mean

it rolls over to the next game, where they could be here playing for a bigger total.

Every game on Perfection is worth £1,000.

Here's the good news - nobody has won the last game, so the prize fund stands at £2,000.

APPLAUSE

So if you walk out of here with £2,000, what would you spend it on?

-I'd like to go on a cruise, actually.

-Really?

-Yes.

Smashing, here's how the game works. You'll play three rounds and then a final.

Every round you achieve perfection will makes the final easier. If your performance is not perfect,

the Usual Suspects can step in and steal the round from you,

-making the final that much harder for you to win.

-OK.

Usual Suspects, we're going to switch you off for now, so you can't see or hear anything.

Away they go.

Freddie, now you can talk through your answers because they can't hear you.

-Right, OK.

-Each round consists of four true or false statements.

You'll be answering against the clock. You'll only have 45 seconds.

Once you've given an answer, your first answer is locked in.

-Are you ready?

-Yes, I am.

-Good, let's play Perfection.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-That's true.

-True.

-That's true.

-True?

-Yeah.

-Mmm. No, that's false.

-False?

-Yeah.

-That's true.

-True.

-Yeah.

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

-Happy with that?

-Not sure.

-Which one are you worried about?

-B.

-B?

-Yeah.

-OK.

Before we reveal how you've done, it's time for us to bring back the Usual Suspects.

Usual Suspects, these are the four statements

and next to them are Freddie's answers.

-Terry, has she achieved perfection?

-There's a couple wrong.

The standard rate of VAT, I think if it was 25%,

the country would be an uproar.

Lake Windermere is in the Lake District, not the Peak District.

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

Let's find out how many are correct.

Just two out of four,

certainly not perfection,

which means you've let the Usual Suspects into the game.

Can you steal the round?

You need to change two, but which two?

-BOTH: A and D.

-Yeah, A and D.

We will change A and D.

A changes from true to false.

D changes from true to false,

leaving B and C

as answered by Freddie.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

If the statement turns green, it's true, if red, it's false.

False, it's actually 20%

British troops once set fire to the White House. Surely that can't be true, can it?

It's true! In 1814, absolutely!

False. It was the Rat Pack movie, it did not involve Elvis.

You know where this is going now?

Congratulations Usual Suspects, you have achieved perfection.

Yes, sadly, Freddie, the clue was in the question.

Lake Windermere is in the Lake District.

You now have the opportunity to make Freddie's chances of winning the prize fund much harder in the final.

Freddie, appearing in front of you is your final board. These blank spaces, all six of them,

need to be filled with subject categories. Here are your final round categories,

starting with Rain running through Tipples, Television, Stand Ups

and all the way down to The Hulk and many more in between.

If you'd won, you could have added two categories of your choice,

but because the pesky Usual Suspects stole the round from you, they choose the two categories,

hoping to make the final harder for you to win.

Which two would you like Freddie to play in the final?

-I'm going to think Civil War.

-That was what I thought.

-What do you think?

-I think Capitals as well would be...

I think that's very good as well. That's perfect for her.

We're going to go with Civil War and Capitals.

Civil War goes across as the first subject and Capitals follows as the second.

Well done, Usual Suspects. You've won the first round. Time to switch you off

and we'll see you in Round Two.

Away they go, waving in a friendly manner, don't be misled.

-What do you make of the two they have chosen? Civil War?

-Oh!

-Really?

I'm not so sure on that. Capitals, I'm not too sure.

Capitals, I feel a bit comfortable with that. Yes, I'm OK with that.

Looking at the list, on the left there, which ones would you like?

The Theatre. Tipples, I mean, yes.

-You don't go to the theatre without a drink?

-You've got to drink after.

Also, which ones do you really not want?

-Hammer Horror, I think. And, The Hulk.

-OK, it's only the first round.

You have two more rounds to find perfection and choose your own categories for the final,

which is the way forward, really.

-Are you ready for the next round?

-Yes, I am.

-Let's play Round Two.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-False.

-False.

-False.

-False?

-Yeah.

-That's false, yeah.

-False?

-Yes.

Oh, goodness!

Cricket, um, no. I think that's false, too.

False. Loads of time to spare.

You've answered all four statements.

-You looked a little more uncomfortable with that one?

-I was thinking a bit more about it,

but I know about the haggis. I don't believe that's rabbit.

OK, before we reveal exactly how well you've done, it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

These are the four statements and next of them are Freddie's answers.

-Ross, has she achieved perfection?

-I don't think Freddie has.

The one I would probably change is question A.

-I think that could be true.

-Terry, what do you make of them?

The only one I'm not sure on is A. All the rest I think she's done OK.

Freddie, the moment of truth, they think you've got one wrong.

You need to have answered all four perfectly to win.

Let's see how many are correct.

It's better than last time, but not good enough. You failed to achieve perfection.

As a result, once again, you've let the Usual Suspects into the game.

Can you steal the round? You can see Freddie's answers.

-You need to change one, but which one?

-What do you guys think?

-I think A.

-A, sure?

-I'm sure I've heard of him.

We're not sure about the others but we're definitely leaning towards A.

-So you're changing.

-A to true.

From false to true, thank you, leaving B, C and D

as answered by Freddie.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

It's false. Thrillers and historical fiction.

I'm afraid, Usual Suspects, you've blown it.

Can you still achieve perfection at home? Let's run through the answers.

Could this be true? Look at all the Scots up there saying, "No."

It is, of course, false.

Yes, it's made from a combination of liver, stomach, hearts.

It was true.

From 1037 until 1040.

It's false. They are a rugby union team.

Usual Suspects, had you achieved perfection you would have had the opportunity to make

Freddie's chances of winning the prize much harder in the final. Let's look at the board.

Two subjects chosen on there by the Usual Suspects,

but no-one won the round, the two categories are carried over to the next round,

meaning four categories will be on offer in the next round.

Usual Suspects, I'm switching you off. We'll see you in Round Three.

Away they go.

-Freddie, with four categories in the next round, it's a good one to achieve perfection.

-Yes.

-Are you ready?

-Yes, I am.

-Let's play Round Three.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-Neptune... That's false.

-False?

-Yeah.

I don't think he was a pianist.

-I would say false for that one.

-False?

-Yeah.

-No, I think that's false as well.

-False.

-No, that's false.

-False?

-Yes.

And well within the time, you've answered all four.

-Happy with that?

-Yes, I think so, actually.

-You seem more confident now.

-yeah.

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

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

-BB, has she achieved perfection?

-No, she hasn't.

This is going to be really sad if I get this wrong, because I'm originally Nigerian,

and that's in West Africa. I should know all about that.

-Mauritania is in West Africa, if I'm right.

-Right.

-That's wrong.

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

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

-All right.

Three out of four, again. Good score, but it's not perfection.

As a result, once again, you've let your enemies into the game.

Can you steal the round? You can see Freddie's answers.

-You need to change one of them, but which one?

-It's going to be D.

-Yes.

-Yeah.

-I would agree.

OK, changing D from false to true,

leaving A, B and C as answered by Freddie.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

False. Sometimes known as the blue planet.

False, he is in fact... Do you know what he is?

-I imagine him playing windwood. Woodwind.

-He's a tenor.

-Tenor! OK.

False, although Paddy Ashdown did have links with the military.

And Mauritania is a country in west Africa.

It's perfectly OK, BB, you are perfectly safe.

You can show your face around the place again. It is true.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved perfection.

A great effort there by the Usual Suspects.

They succeeded where you failed, Freddie, and they've stolen the round. Let's see the final board.

Two subjects chosen by the Usual Suspects and because you've won the round you can choose

the next four categories to add to the board.

That's two from this round and two from the previous round.

Which four would you like?

-Rain, that's pretty non-descript.

-We could try, if you want. Rain.

OK, Rain goes across.

-I'm thinking The Hulk, what do you guys think?

-Yeah.

-The Hulk.

-The Hulk goes across.

Freddie looks like she might be a wine drinker, so perhaps doesn't know too much about Tipples.

-Yes.

-Shall we try that?

-Yes.

-Tipples goes across. We need one more.

-Stand Ups.

-Freddie looks like she likes a laugh.

But there's a lot of new guys in the stand-up thing now.

Were going to go for Stand Ups.

Stand-ups goes in and becomes the last.

We now know our six final categories.

Guys, it's time to switch you off for the final time. Away they go.

OK, what do you make of that final board? The Hulk?

-Not the Hulk.

-You said you didn't want that one.

-Tipples is quite nice.

-Stand Ups?

-Not so sure about Stand Ups.

Tipples was handy, one of the ones you fancied.

I quite fancy that, yes.

-Rain, it depends, really.

-It'll be interesting.

All right, Freddie, for £2,000, it's time to play the final.

Freddie, if you achieve perfection you could be leaving with £2,000.

If you fail, you'll leave with nothing, which would be great for the Usual Suspects, as one of them

could be playing for £3,000 in the next game.

-You don't want that to happen. You want to take the money home?

-I do.

Let's play the final round.

Here are your final categories.

You must answer all six statements correctly

if you want to win the £2000.

There is no time limit. Once you've given your answer, that answer is locked in.

-Are you ready?

-I'm ready.

-Let's reveal your first statement. Please tell me if it's true or false?

-That's true.

-True?

-Yeah.

I'd say that's false. I don't know why I'm saying that.

-False?

-Mm.

Gamp. I've never heard of that word at all.

-I think that's false, actually.

-False?

-Yes.

Norton.

-True. I'm going to go true with that one.

-True?

-Yeah.

Yes, that is true.

-True?

-Yeah.

Stewart Lee was in The Mary Whitehouse experience.

-True. I'd say that was true.

-True.

-Yeah.

With that, Freddie, those answers are locked in.

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

-Which ones are you worried about?

-F, I'm worried about that one.

-C, Gamp for umbrella.

-C?

-C and F are the ones you're worried about

-Mm.

Let's bring back the Usual Suspects and see what they say.

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements

and next to them are Freddie's answers.

Freddie, your answers are locked in. 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.

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

-BB.

-Hi, Freddie.

-Hello.

-How well do you think you've done?

Well, there is a couple I'm not really sure of at all.

There's some I know you've done really, really well on

and there's a couple I'm not sure of.

To be honest, I'm not sure if I want to risk it. You can come back to me later,

I'm still having a think.

-OK.

-Who would you like to hear from next?

-Ross, hi, Ross.

I would like to help you, Freddie,

but to be honest, I'm not really sure on most of these questions.

If I did come down, I will probably want to come down for,

let's say £1,200.

I'm not really sure I do want to come down.

I'm not sure I'd be a great help for you.

If Ross does come down, he will want £1,200 of your £2,000.

-Do you want to hear from Terry?

-Yes, Terry.

Just looking at them, there's one that I can see is definitely wrong.

One that I know is definitely right and the other four I have no idea.

I would be coming down and it would be blind leading the blind.

I think I would have to rule myself out for coming down and giving you a hand, Freddie. I'm sorry.

-Terry is ruling himself out.

-OK.

-What do you think?

I might take it on my own. I don't know why I'm saying that, but yes.

In that case, negotiations are suspended on the basis

that Freddie doesn't need your help and is going it alone. £2,000 at stake. Six answers away.

Let's find out if you've achieved perfection.

Let's start at the top and go down.

We need this to turn green to get you on your way.

Is it true or false?

Sadly, it's false.

Straightaway we know you haven't achieved perfection

and therefore won't be going home with the money.

-The Roundheads were, in fact, the Parliamentary troops.

-Right.

Can you achieve perfection at home? Let's go through the statements.

It is false.

-It's actually a place in the Lord Of The Rings.

-Oh, right.

It is, in fact, true. After Mrs Gamp from Martin Chuzzlewit.

It is true.

True.

-This was a guess.

-Yeah.

Usual Suspects, the prize fund rolls over to the next game

where one of you could be playing for a total of £3,000.

APPLAUSE

Freddie, you went it alone, but you failed to achieve perfection, which means you go home with nothing.

-I hope you enjoyed the game.

-It's been fantastic.

-Freddie!

-Thank you.

It's now time to meet the next Usual Suspect hoping to play Perfection today.

-New Usual Suspect, please introduce yourself.

-Hi, I'm Nicola.

-I'm from Great Yarmouth and I'm a mystery shopper.

-Welcome.

Best of luck, we now find out which one of you has been randomly picked to play Perfection.

BB, it's you! You've been chosen, please come and play Perfection.

-BB, welcome to the game.

-Thank you.

-We should talk about the pregnancy, it is close.

-Can you see all angles?

-You're carrying it all out the front, aren't you?

-Yes.

-Which means it's a boy.

-It's a boy.

-How close are we, do I have to be worried?

-Six weeks. You're fine.

-We've got hot water and towels...

-What is the hot water thing?

-Probably for me in case I pass out.

-What is the hot water for? Exactly?

-Do you know what, I'm not altogether sure.

BB, it's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

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

Every game on is worth £1,000. Here's the good news.

As nobody has won the last two games, the prize fund currently stands at £3,000.

-What would you spend the money on?

-My husband has been so hard-working, so dedicated...

-Send him to a spa, something really nice for him.

-What a lovely idea.

Smashing. Good luck. Three rounds and the final to come.

Usual Suspects, we're switching you off.

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

Away they go. You can talk through your answers without giving away any knowledge.

-Right.

-Let's play Perfection.

Round One, your 45 seconds starts now.

-True.

-True.

-True.

-True.

I'm not sure about that one.

-False.

-False.

False.

And with half your time left, you've answered all four statements.

-That sounded very positive.

-Yes. I'm sure of three.

OK, before we reveal how well you've done, it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

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

Let's start with you, Ross. Has she achieved perfection?

I think BB has a good chance of achieving perfection in this round.

However, I remember watching a programme on JK Rowling

and I'm pretty sure she does have a middle name.

I would probably change that one.

Terry, has she achieved perfection?

I'm a big JK Rowling fan. I've read all the books. I think the same.

I think that's the one she may have tripped upon.

Well, now they've made me feel really uncomfortable.

Don't you worry. It's the moment of truth. We'll put you out of your misery.

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

Let's find out how many are correct.

Congratulations, BB, you've achieved perfection!

I think you can say that's one over on the Usual Suspects. Let's have a look at those answers.

If it's true, it will turn green, if false, red.

Oddly enough, that is actually true.

It's used to lift water.

He is a member of the Democratic Party.

As a result of that perfect performance, you've made winning the prize easier.

Here's how. Appearing in front of you is your final board.

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

Here are your final round categories.

Starting with Broadcasting,

ranging through Italy, Philosophers, Rooney to Film Industry

and many more in between.

Because you won, you can choose two categories.

Which to do fancy?

-OK, erm, Film Industry.

-Film Industry goes across.

-Let's try Pop Stars.

-Pop Stars goes across.

Usual Suspects, we'll see you in the next round. Let's switch you off for now.

Now that they've gone, over on the left,

looking at those subjects, which ones would you not want to get?

Cavalry and funnily enough, Scotland.

Scotland, you're a bit worried on that one, as well.

My husband won't find it funny, he's Scottish.

-BB, you've made a great start. Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Let's get on with Round Two.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

That is...correct.

-So you're saying...

-True.

-True.

-That's true.

-True.

-No, that's false.

-False.

-False.

-False. And with time to spare...

-Ah, Jesus, Jesus.

You've answered all four statements.

Can I take it from the squeak that came out that you answered too quickly on one of them?

Yes, Human Torch, I think, was the Fantastic Four.

Now I'm thinking of the guy who used to throw fire in X-Men,

was he the Human Torch?

Then, "Here's looking at you kid," did Humphrey Bogart say that to what's her name in Casablanca.

-He did say it, didn't he?

-We can find out in a short while.

Before that, it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So, Usual Suspects, these were the four statements

and next to them are BB's answers.

Nicola, has she achieved perfection?

The last two I'm not 100% certain on, particularly the Human Torch one.

The first two I know she's definitely got right.

I think she's got a very good shot at it again.

-Terry, has she achieved perfection?

-I don't think so, no.

-I think a Mandrill is a type of monkey.

-All right, then.

BB, you need to have answered them all perfectly to have won the round.

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

Three out of four isn't bad, but it's not perfection,

and you've now let your enemies into the game.

Usual Suspects, can you steal the round?

You can see BB's answers, you need to change one of them. Which one?

-I think it's C, the Mandrill.

-That's the one I wasn't certain on.

We would like to change C to true.

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

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

Humphrey Bogart to Ingrid Bergman, as you said. Absolutely true.

Yes, it is true. Usual Suspects, well done. You know where this is going now.

Usual Suspects, you have achieved perfection.

He was, in fact, a member of the Fantastic Four.

Let's see the final board.

Currently there are two subjects chosen in the final by BB,

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

-Which two would you like?

-I remember BB saying she hadn't travelled that much in Europe.

I think Italy would be a good one.

I think she's travelled quite a bit,

I think, Philosophers would be a good one to go for.

-We'll go for Philosophers first of all.

-Philosophers goes across.

-And the next one?

-I also remember BB saying that she wasn't too clued up

on the history of Scotland. If it was a history question,

-that would probably be a good one to go for.

-Right, yes.

We'll go for Scotland, Nick.

Scotland goes cross. Usual Suspects you've won the second round.

It's time to switch you off and we'll see you in Round Three. Away they go.

You see, I told you they weren't so nice.

I have them right where I want them.

-Really?

-No.

-They picked Scotland which is one you said you didn't want.

-Yes.

-You'll have to get that right now, if you want to go home.

-For the honour of my in-laws and everybody.

-Yes.

-The history of Scotland.

-You have one more chance to choose your own categories for the final. Are you ready?

-Yes.

Let's play Round Three.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-False.

-False.

-I have no idea. I will say true, but I don't know.

-True.

-I think that is true. Not sure.

-True.

And finally...

False.

False, and with time to spare

you have answered all four statements.

-You look under more pressure.

-I am not sure about this one.

Not stressed, though, are you? I am worried about the baby!

Get the baby jokes out of the way!

It is not a joke, I am just worried for you!

-I am fine.

-We are not over-stressing you?

-Not at all.

Before we reveal how you have done,

time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

These are the four statements,

and next to them are the answers. Has she achieved perfection?

The only one I have issue with is an Bedfordshire clanger.

-Never heard of it, so it could be wrong or right.

-The moment of truth.

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

Three out of four. That is not perfection,

which means you have let the Usual Suspects back in.

Can you steal the round? You need to change one of the answers.

I think it could be A.

I think it's a group choice, we're going to go with A to true.

A changes from false to true, leaving B, C

and D as answered by BB.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

Bedfordshire clanger is a sponge cake, this is the important one.

Is it true or false?

It's false. Usual Suspects, you have blown it at the first hurdle.

Actually, the Bedfordshire clanger

is like a pasty, it has got jam at one end and meat at the other.

Can you still achieve perfection at home?

Let's run through it.

Herpetologists study reptiles and amphibians, that is true.

Pac-Man was the world's first computer game, true or false?

That's the one that's false.

-Pong, Pong. Do you remember it?

-Yeah.

You might have thought of it earlier.

Chairman Mao died in 1949, true or false?

That is false.

That is when he rose to power, not when he died.

1976 was when he died. Let's have a look at the board.

Four subjects on there, two chosen by BB, two by the Usual Suspects.

It will remain an even-handed final, because nobody won Round Three.

We still have two blank spaces to fill.

To fill those spaces, you will take it in turn to choose a category.

BB, you choose first. Which category would you like?

-I am going to try Italy.

-Italy goes across.

-Usual Suspects?

-I think we should go for Seas, but what do you think?

-I will go along with the majority.

-We will go for seas, Nick.

That goes across. We now know the six final categories.

Usual Suspects, it's time to switch you off for the final time.

That's really interesting, they were talking about

how you've travelled a lot, and then they pick Seas.

They might have a game plan, who knows?

BB, for £3000, it's time to play the final.

APPLAUSE

BB, this is the all-important final.

If you can achieve perfection you could leave with £3,000.

If you fail, you leave with nothing.

That would be great news for the Usual Suspects,

as one of them could play for a rollover of £4,000 on the next game.

-You do not want that to happen.

-Not really.

-Let's play the final round.

Here are your final six categories, BB.

There is no time limit, but once you've have given an answer,

it is locked in.

Let's reveal the first statement, tell me whether you believe it to be true or false.

The grips are the guys who work, the dolly is a camera,

so a dolly grip does not make special effects. I don't know!

-I am going to say false.

-False.

I think it was very briefly a number one, very briefly.

I'm going to say true.

Karl Marx? I know this, I did this in first year of law school.

-He was not, he was Polish. False.

-False.

This is the one you're worried about, Scotland.

Can I call my mother-in-law?

Sadly we don't have "call a friend" on this one.

I've never heard of it, so I'm going to say false.

False.

Italy.

That means "the most serene".

I've never heard it referred to for Venice,

but it is very serene

with the gondolas and everything, so probably.

Hmmm... Da-da-da...

-False.

-False.

The Dead Sea. I'm going to say true.

I'm going to go for true, but I'm not sure.

True.

BB, those answers are locked in, if there is one single mistake, you leave with nothing.

-Which ones are you worried about?

-All of them.

Let's bring back the Usual Suspects to see what they have to say.

Usual Suspects, you can see the final six statements and answers.

BB, your answers are locked in. You cannot change them.

If you think you have made a mistake you can unlock them with the help of the Usual Suspects, at a cost.

-Who would you like to hear from first?

-From Ross.

Hi, BB. How confident are you with your answers?

SHE LAUGHS

Quite confident, about a few.

I'm 100% confident you have one wrong,

I would be willing to come down to help you for 1,600.

He wants 1,600 of your 3,000. That is the lion's share.

Let me hear from Terry.

There's only one I would have issue with,

but I'm not confident on that myself.

If I came down, I would be looking for two.

Terry wants 2,000 of 3,000, so you're not short of offers at the moment.

-Nicola?

-I think you've done very well, again,

I think there's one there that is wrong,

but I am not 100% certain, so I'm counting myself out.

So you have a couple of offers there, what do you think?

Ross, why don't you come down for 1,200, and let us just do this.

-1,200 is the offer, Ross.

-Let's make it 1,500 and I'll be there in a second.

OK, it's a deal.

Negotiations are finished, Ross, for £1,500 of the £3,000,

come and join us.

You've asked Ross for help.

If you achieve Perfection it will cost you £1,500 of £3,000.

Ross, you forfeited your chance to play in the next game,

this is your only shot at winning Perfection.

Have you made the right decision? We'll find out.

Here are the statements. All six answers are unlocked.

Which answers do you want to change?

I hate to tell you this, but I was bluffing you.

I thought I would come down here and try for the prize-money,

because I think you've done really well.

Can I just check,

-Ross, you bluffed because you think she's done really well?

-Yeah.

He has piggybacked.

When you said you were confident on these, how confident were you?

-I was bluffing too.

-Essentially, you have bluffed each other.

Nice.

You want to have a little chat about these?

I used to work in the airline industry, before going

into teaching, and I know that dollies were used to stop things.

-I have a funny feeling it might be used as a prop to stop things.

-I know a dolly is a camera.

I think it is false.

Promise This, it came out, it was number one

-but for a very short time.

-I would say that was true.

Karl Marx, I should know this because I did this in my first year of law school.

I aced my philosophy, but I cannot remember.

I would be happy to keep that false.

You are Scottish, you should know this.

This is terrible, I've never heard of it,

so in that instance I would say false.

On this show, you cannot discount that. It could exist or something.

I hope not.

You do tourism, I speak Italian, that means "the most serene".

Venice is serene, but I have never heard it referred to as that.

I would be happy to keep that false. The last one is an issue for me.

It would seem, the Red Sea seems like a big thing, the Dead Sea

seems like a small thing, so logically that would be bigger.

Why put it as a question if it's so obvious?

You don't have to listen to Ross, however the board is now

completely open and you can change all of your answers.

Do you want to make any changes?

I'll be honest, I bluffed my way down here,

so I'm going to leave it to you as a final choice.

I'm going to hate myself later if I miss this,

but I am going to leave it as it is.

I can hear everyone at home screaming.

-Leave it as is, so lock them all in?

-Yes.

-All right.

Locking them in without any changes. £3,000 is at stake.

£1,500 to Ross, £1,500 to BB, let's find out if you achieved Perfection.

Let's start at the top. Dolly grips make special effects for films.

You were fairly confident this was false, BB.

If it is false it will turn red, and you're off to a flying start.

Is it true or false?

It is false. It is the person who operates the camera dolly.

Promise This was a number one for Cheryl Cole in 2010,

you thought this was true.

Ross had no reason to think otherwise.

You need this to turn green. Is it true or false?

True.

Karl Marx was born in Russia. You said this was false, BB.

This was something you studied, I wonder if you pulled the information out of the back of your mind.

Here it comes.

It is false.

He was a German philosopher, and he was born in Prussia in actual fact.

This one, a claymore is a Scottish meat pasty.

BB, you said you hoped you got this right,

with having a Scottish mother-in-law.

Luckily you had Ross come down, who's Scottish,

very proud of his heritage, and said he had no idea at all.

You stuck to false. If it is false, it will turn red.

Is that true or false?

It's false!

You can now face the in-laws.

Ross, you can show your face around town as well.

It's actually a mediaeval two-handed sword.

It's a giant ceremonial sword.

Just two questions away from £3,000.

We get to the next one.

-You know what that means, BB. It means...

-The most serene.

The most serene. You speak Italian, and have travelled a bit. Ross...

I work as a tourism lecturer now. I really hope this one's false.

You need this to turn red to get just one away from £3,000.

Is it true or false?

It's true.

BB and Ross, I'm afraid you didn't manage to achieve perfection,

and as a result you're not going home with any money.

Do you know what's interesting about that,

you said it means "the most serene", which is absolutely right,

you said that Venice is a very serene place,

with all the gondolas, the beautiful architecture, then you said false.

I wonder whether you've achieved perfection at home.

This is the one Ross thought you might change. You decided not to.

Is it true or false? It is false.

Usual Suspects, great news, the prize money rolls over.

One of you could be playing for a total of £4,000.

BB, Ross, I am afraid you failed to achieve perfection, which means

you both go home with nothing, but I hope you enjoyed playing.

-Thank you.

-Best of luck with the baby.

Ladies and gentlemen, BB and Ross!

APPLAUSE

That's all we have time for.

Join us next time when the Usual Suspects have the chance to play for £4,000.

Remember, on this show, we only pay for absolute perfection. Goodbye.
