Episode 24 Perfection

The quiz show that demands nothing less than Perfection.

Behind the screen, four contestants all hoping their knowledge

is flawless - one, single mistake could give the game away.

This is Perfection.

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're in our isolation room.

In a moment, we'll find out which one of them

has been randomly selected to join me here to play Perfection,

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

For example, if I said Africa is larger by area than Europe,

is that true or false?

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

Answering true or false might seem easy,

but if a contestant gets a single answer wrong,

their opponents, 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.

Hi, I'm Jenny, I'm from Braintree, I'm a freelance artist

and this is my first game.

I'm Matt, I'm from south-east London, I'm a charity media officer

and this is my first game.

I'm Nicola, I'm from Great Yarmouth, I'm a mystery shopper

and this is my second game.

I'm Terry, I'm originally from Hull but now I live in Chesterfield.

I'm a retired lorry driver and this is my third game.

OK, welcome to you all and best of luck as we now find out

which one of you has been randomly picked to play Perfection.

Terry, it's you that's been chosen. Please, come and play Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Terry, welcome to the game. You are representing Great Britain in...

-Three sports, yeah.

-..three different sports.

Sledge hockey, golf and horse driving trials.

You did a long time in the military, as well.

-You've had an interesting life.

-12 years. I've been about a bit.

It's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

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

Their job is to stop you from winning the prize fund,

cos your failure will mean the prize money rolls over

to the next game, when one of them could be

playing for a bigger total.

Every game on Perfection is worth £1,000.

Here's the good news, nobody's won the last three games

so the prize fund currently stands at £4,000.

APPLAUSE

What would you spend the cash on, Terry?

It's so expensive keeping horses and that would go a long way

for me to carry on doing the sport.

Keeping horses is expensive, so best of luck to you.

-Thank you very much.

-Here's how the game works.

You'll play three rounds and then a final.

Every round that you achieve Perfection will make the Final easier for you.

If your performance is anything less than perfect,

the Usual Suspects will have the chance to step in

and steal the round, making the Final that much harder.

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

so you can't see or hear anything.

And away they go.

Terry, each round consists of four true or false statements.

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

once you've given your answer, your first answer, that'll be locked in.

-You ready?

-Yes.

-Then, let's play Perfection.

Round 1. Your 45 seconds starts now.

-False.

-False.

-He's a spin bowler.

-I believe that's true, yes.

-True.

Um. Not really sure on that but I don't think so.

So, I'll say false with that.

False. And finally...

-A coot is a bird so I'll say yes.

-So, you're saying...

-True.

-True.

Thank you very much.

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

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

So, Usual Suspects,

these were the four statements and next to them are Terry's answers.

Nicola, has he achieved Perfection?

I think he's pretty close.

The only one that I would've said the opposite to is A.

I think that that is true.

But apart from that, I think he's pretty close.

-Jenny, what do you think?

-I think he could have Perfection

but I just remember Crash Bandicoot being a computer game

and that little thing was a little Tasmanian devil so maybe D is wrong.

Terry, you need to have answered all four statements perfectly

to have won the round. Let's find out how many are correct.

Pretty good but not good enough. You failed to achieve Perfection,

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

Usual Suspects, can you steal the round?

You can see Terry's answers, change one of them.

-But which one?

-K2, I'm sure that is the second highest.

-That's true.

Clint Eastwood, I'm sure he didn't direct Platoon.

-Shane Warne is a spinner, he's not a fast bowler.

-Is he? Right.

Take your word for that.

-So, should we go D?

-Yes.

-We'd like to change D to false, please, Nick.

D changes from true to false,

leaving A, B and C as Terry answered.

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

The cricketer Shane Warne was a fast bowler, true or false?

It is false. He was, in fact, a leg spin bowler.

K2 is the world's second highest mountain, is that true or false?

It is absolutely true.

Clint Eastwood directed Platoon, true or false?

It is false. It was Oliver Stone.

You can see where this is going now, can't you, Usual Suspects?

The bandicoot is a type of bird, is that true or false?

It's false.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

So, they managed to succeed where you failed

and, I'm afraid, they've stolen the round.

Usual Suspects, you have the opportunity

to make Terry's chances of winning the price fund much harder in the Final and here's how.

Appearing before you, Terry, is your final board.

These six blank spaces need to be filled

with subject categories starting with

Adele, Mythology, Alphabet, Parks with many more in between.

Because the Usual Suspects stole the round from you, they choose

the two categories, hoping to make the Final harder for you to win.

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

-I can't see him being a fan of Friends.

-No, maybe not.

-Is that going across?

-Yeah, Friends, please.

Friends goes into the Final, and one more please.

-I was thinking maybe Adele.

-Or possibly fashion, maybe.

-Not that I'm saying that Terry's unfashionable.

-OK.

We'd like fashion, as well, please.

Fashion goes across becomes the second category the final.

Well done, Usual Suspects, you won the first round.

It's time to switch you off but we will see you in Round 2.

And away they go. I don't know what they meant with fashion, there.

-You are wearing the in-colour this year.

-I know, salmon.

And Friends? What Phoebe, Ross, Joey.

They've played into your hands, there, haven't they?

So, which ones do you really like?

Rugby Union, possibly Flags, Wild West.

-And which ones do you desperately want to avoid?

-Poets and Adele.

-OK.

-Terry, you ready for the next round?

-Yeah.

-Good. Let's play Round 2.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-False. No reason, I'm not sure.

-False.

-True.

-True.

-Yeah.

-False, I believe.

-False.

-Yeah. For no other reason...

-And finally...

-True.

-True.

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

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

So, Usual Suspects,

these were the four statements and Terry's answers.

Jenny, has he achieved Perfection?

I think he has achieved Perfection this time.

I don't think I'd change any of them if I was in his place.

-So, well done, Terry, I think you've got them all right.

-Wow.

You need to have answered all four statements perfectly

to have won the round.

I wonder how many are correct.

-Oh.

-Congratulations, Terry, you've achieved Perfection.

Very good, let's run through those.

Renoir painted Girl With A Pearl Earring, you said false.

And it is, of course, false.

Vermeer is the person that you're looking for, who painted that.

New Jersey is known as the Garden State,

you said that was true and, of course, it is true.

Edward V was king of England for 30 years,

you said that was false and you're right, it is false.

-Less than three months.

-Yeah.

Teenage Dream is an album by Katy Perry

and you said that was true, and it is absolutely true.

Terry, as a result of that perfect performance,

you've made winning the prize fund a lot easier.

Let's see the final board.

First two subjects chosen for you by the Usual Suspects

but because you won that round,

you've earned the right to choose two categories for yourself.

-So, which two would you like to play in the Final?

-Rugby Union, please.

-Rugby Union goes across.

-Wild West.

-And Wild West.

-Yes.

OK, Usual Suspects,

I'm now going to switch you off - see you in the next round. Cheerio.

And away they go. Terry, if you're ready, let's play Round 3.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-True.

-True.

-Yeah.

-I think that's false.

-False.

-I think she was married to Tyson.

-True, off Australia.

-True. And finally...

-Um, I'll say true.

-True.

Thank you, Terry.

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

Usual Suspects, these were the four statements,

and next to them, are Terry's answers.

-Matt, has he achieved Perfection?

-Not this time, Nick.

-Ben Ainslie, he's a sailor, not a rower.

-Course he is.

Not too sure Ethan Hawke, but he's certainly got A wrong.

-Nicola?

-I'm sure that C and D, he's got right.

B was the one that I wasn't certain of and A, I really didn't know.

Terry, the moment of truth, let's find out how many are correct.

Just two out of four, certainly not Perfection.

And as result, you've let your enemies, the Usual Suspects,

back into the game.

Usual Suspects, can you steal the round? You can see Terry's answers.

You need to change two, but which two?

-Certainly A.

-Definitely A.

And B, I think, cos we're sure that C is right.

And D, I'm sure that's right.

-Definitely rings a bell with me, as well.

-So, A and B.

-A and B.

We'll change both A and B, please.

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

leaving C and D as answered by Terry.

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

Ben Ainslie is an Olympic rowing champion, true or false?

It is false. And you're right, Matt, it is sailing.

Ethan Hawke was once married to Robin Wright, true or false?

It's false. You've blown it, Usual Suspects.

We had the chance to steal the round but you failed to achieve Perfection.

Robin Wright was married to Sean Penn.

I wonder whether you can still achieve Perfection at home.

Let's have a look at the other statements.

Tasmania is an island, true or false?

-Yes, of course, it's true. Off of Australia, as you said, Terry.

-Yeah.

And Sandy Gall was the BBC's first newsreader, true or false?

False.

Let's have a look at the board.

Four subjects chosen, two by the Usual Suspects, two by Terry.

And because no-one managed to win that round, we have two blank spaces

still to be filled by you taking it in turns to choose a category.

Terry, you get to choose first. Which category you would you like?

-Mythology, please.

-Mythology goes across.

And Usual Suspects, please, choose a category to complete the board.

-What do you think?

-What do you think his Shakespeare's like?

I'd be tempted with Othello.

-He's just chosen Mythology. Yeah.

-He surprised me by picking that.

-So, I don't know. Parks?

-Do you think he would know many parks?

-That could be, that's quite a wide range.

-Go for Parks?

Can we have, please, Nick.

Parks goes across. We now know our six final categories. They are...

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

And away they go.

-Now, they've gone, Terry, Parks, could be anything, really.

-Could be.

All right, well, look, Terry, for £4,000, it's time to play the Final.

APPLAUSE

Terry, this is the all-important Final.

If can you achieve Perfection you could be leaving

with the prize fund of £4,000.

If you fail, you'll be leaving with nothing,

great news for the Usual Suspects as one of them

could be playing for a rollover of £5,000 on the next game.

-You ready?

-Yeah.

-Let's play the Final Round.

APPLAUSE

Terry, here are your six final categories.

You must answer all six statements correctly

if you want to win the £4,000. Think carefully.

There's no time limit but once you've given an answer, your first answer is locked in.

-Yeah.

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

Let's reveal your first statement. Friends.

There's been quite a lot of major celebrities

that have been in Friends.

-I think I'll say true on that.

-True.

-Yes.

-Fashion.

Not sure. Fashion is, you know, pair of jeans and a T-shirt.

Christian Dior.

-I'll have a go at true. Purely a guess but I'll go with true.

-True.

Rugby Union, the first of the subjects chosen by yourself.

Um...

No, I think Martin Johnson was, played number eight, lock forward.

-So, you're saying?

-I would say that's false.

-False.

Wild West.

-That's false. I think he died of consumption.

-False.

-Yeah.

Mythology.

It was Helen of Troy.

If she was in Troy that made her part of the Trojans

so it was the Greeks, I think, that were inside the horse.

So, that makes that...

-..false.

-False.

-Yes.

-And finally, Parks.

False. That's in Wales. I've done my training exercise up there

in the early years, yeah.

False. Thank you. Terry, those answers are now locked in.

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

Yeah.

Which ones are you unsure of?

I would say the New Look and Julia Roberts.

-So, A and B are the ones that worry you?

-Yes.

-OK.

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

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements

and next to them are Terry's answers.

Terry, your answers are locked in, you can't change them by yourself

but if you think you made a mistake, you can unlock them

with the help of the Usual Suspects. This will, however, come at a cost.

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

-Nicola.

-Hi, Nicola.

-Hi, Terry. How confident are you?

As confident as anybody else who's sitting here can be.

I'm not 100% certain on two of them.

-So, come back to me in a minute.

-Yeah, OK. Matt.

-Hi, Terry.

There's certainly a couple that I'm not so certain about.

So, I could help you out with those.

I think it would probably cost you 2,500.

So, he wants £2,500 of your prize total of £4,000.

Yeah, well, we don't always get what we want in life, do we? Jenny.

-Hi, Terry. How are you?

-I'm fine.

I think, for me, definitely three of them would be a total guess

because I've got no idea.

And it's my first round up here and I just think, for that reason,

I'm not going to come and help you, I'm out of this one, I'm sorry.

No problem, thanks, Jenny.

-What do you want to do know?

-I'll talk to Nicola again.

I'm not 100% certain on the two

so I think I'm going to have to rule myself out too.

So, you're back to Matt, then.

Unless, you think they're wrong and you can achieve it on your own.

You have to decide whether you need Matt's help and, if you do,

you need to start negotiating.

I would be happy with £2,000, I've had a good day.

If he wants to go 50:50 and you think you can help me, Matt.

£2,000 is the offer, Matt, what do you think?

I could do it for £2,000, certainly.

-OK, are we agreed?

-We're agreed.

-Yay.

OK, Matt, for £2,000 of the £4,000 prize pot, please, come and join us.

APPLAUSE

OK, Terry, you have asked Matt for help.

If you achieve Perfection, it will cost you

£2,000 of your potential prize fund of £4,000.

Matt, you've now forfeited your chance to play in the next game -

this is your only shot at winning Perfection.

Here are the Final Round statements.

All six answers are now unlocked.

Matt, which answers do you want Terry to change?

Well, it's a bit of a bluff

because I don't think he should change any of them.

I think Terry may well have achieved Perfection.

So, essentially,

you've bluffed your way down here for £2,000 of Terry's £4,000.

-That was the idea, yes.

-How do you feel about that, Terry?

I would probably have done the same.

OK, Terry, it's still your game, still your decision.

The board is now unlocked

so you can change any or none of your answers.

Have a chat through them before you make a decision.

Do you remember Julia Roberts being in Friends?

Absolutely, definitely, that's true.

New Look, Dior, that certainly rings a bell with me.

C is correct, he's a second row forward.

I think Doc Holliday died of consumption. The Trojans.

It might be the Spartans who hid inside the horse.

-And Brecon Beacons that's...

-Yes, cos that's in Wales.

-Are you locking them in?

-I think so, yeah, why not?

All right, locking all the answers in.

Matt, we haven't heard from you, what would you spend the money on?

I've spent the past four years studying part-time

while I've been working, training to be a solicitor

and that was a fairly chunky loan that I took out to do that

so it would, certainly, help ease the payments for that.

And, Terry, this £2,000 is going towards your horses, right?

Either that or, you know, leave the horses in the field

and go on holiday.

I'm sure there's someone to look after them. OK.

£4,000 at stake, six answers away,

let's find out if they've achieved Perfection.

C was, actually, the first category that you chose,

-wasn't it, Terry?

-Yes.

-So, let's start with those, shall we?

Martin Johnson usually played prop for England,

you said that was false because he played number eight.

He's just too tall for a prop, he's a massive man.

So, you said false, we need this to turn red

to get you off to a good start. Is it true or false?

It is false. He was, of course, second row, predominantly.

D, Doc Holliday died at the OK Corral, you said this was false.

Matt had no reason to disagree with you

and hoped that you knew this one.

You need this to turn red to get two out of the six. Is it true or false?

It is false.

Yes, died several years later.

Let's go to E. The Trojans hid inside the Trojan Horse.

You thought it was the Greeks inside, possibly,

Matt thought that it might be the Spartans but it wasn't the Trojans.

So, you said false. And Matt agreed with you, so you stuck with it.

You need this to turn red to get you halfway to the cash.

The Trojans hid inside Trojan Horse, is that true or false?

It is false.

And you're absolutely right, it was the Greeks who were inside there.

-Shall we finish off the bottom of the board?

-Yeah.

The Brecon Beacons National Park is in Scotland.

-You had absolutely no doubt about this one.

-No.

-You've been to the Brecon Beacons.

-Yeah.

-You've been on exercise there.

Matt was quite happy to go along with that.

Is it true or false?

It is false.

And you're absolutely right,

in Wales. So, look at that, four out of four,

just the two that you were most worried about.

So, let's get to those. Julia Roberts has appeared in Friends,

you weren't sure about this, you went with true.

Matt came down to say that it was absolutely true,

he was absolutely sure.

So, if he's right, you'll be one away from the £4,000.

Julia Roberts has appeared in Friends.

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

It's true.

APPLAUSE

How interesting. The New Look was created by Christian Dior.

Now, it was actually Matt who suggested this category

in the first place when he was a Usual Suspect.

Came down, didn't want to change anything.

And when you asked him about this particular one,

you weren't really sure either, were you?

An inkling but probably no more than an inkling.

I wonder whether you're going to get Perfection or whether

you're going to fail on the question you suggested for the Final.

We're about to find out. The New Look was created by Christian Dior.

You said true.

Matt agreed with you, true.

-You need it to turn green.

-I do. I do.

The New Look was created by Christian Dior,

is that true or false?

For £4,000.

Yes!

It's true. Congratulations, you got all six answers right.

You have achieved Perfection.

-Oh, thank you.

-Fantastic. Well played, indeed.

-Oh.

£2,000 to Terry, £2,000 to Matt. How you feeling, guys?

First time I've really won anything like this. Absolutely brilliant.

Matt, you can now claim to be an expert on fashion.

Yeah, I feel really, really, really pleased.

And feel like that was the easiest money I've ever made

-and for doing nothing for it.

-Yes, it was.

-Yes, it was, from Terry.

Nonetheless, you have achieved Perfection

and you won £4,000 between you.

Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it for them.

Unfortunately for you, Usual Suspects,

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

Congratulations to Terry and Matt.

You achieved Perfection and you leave here with £4,000.

It's now time to meet the next Usual Suspects,

hoping to play Perfection today.

New Usual Suspects, please introduce yourselves.

Hi, Nick, I'm Val, I'm from Nottingham

and I'm an aircraft fitter.

Hello, I'm John, I'm from Wolverhampton

and I'm a local operations manager.

Nice to meet you both, welcome to the show.

Now, which one of you is it that has an alter ego?

-That'll be me, Nick, that would.

-What's the name of your alter ego?

-It's Dwayne Pipe.

-And what does Dwayne Pipe do?

Dwayne Pipe appears on the local radio every morning,

talking about interesting facts about Wolverhampton.

I shall look forward to finding out

what you do and don't know during the course of the quiz.

And, Val, bit of an inventor on the quiet, I understand?

Well, I've got one or two things I've been looking at, over the years.

And to actually win a few bob and help me on that pursuit,

-it'd be lovely.

-Welcome to you both.

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

Jenny, it's you that's been chosen. Please, come and play Perfection.

APPLAUSE

-Jenny, welcome to the game.

-Thank you very much.

Let's find out a little bit more about you -

you're making a living as an artist.

Yeah, I'm part-time artist, part-time little bit of everything.

-And you paint murals to order.

-I do, yeah.

What do people like to have painted on their walls?

I've done a few in primary schools.

So, it's been rainforest scenes and underwater scenes.

What a lovely idea.

And the money, if you won it, would be about getting a van, would it?

Yeah. It would be about trying to get in a vehicle of some sort

because I am a cyclist at the moment.

It'd be lovely to put £1,000 towards a car.

All right, Jenny, it's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

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

Every game on Perfection is worth £1,000.

Unfortunately, as a result of the previous game being won,

the prize fund is now reset to £1,000.

But £1,000 is good money by anybody's standards.

-Yeah, I would still love to win a grand. So, you never know.

-OK.

Three rounds and a final to come.

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

so you can't see or hear anything.

But as soon as Jenny makes a mistake, you will be back in the game.

And away they go.

-You ready?

-I'm ready.

-Then let's play Perfection.

Round 1, your 45 seconds starts now.

I think she's Australian so I'm going to go false with that one.

False.

I am really bad at politics.

At a total guess, I'll go true, but I really don't know.

True.

Erm, I've just been to the US actually,

and I think a nickel is a small one.

And I think it is ten cents so, yeah, true for that one.

-True.

-And finally,

I think that is true. Yes, I will go true with that one.

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

Before we see how you've done, let's bring back the Usual Suspects.

So these are the four statements and next to them are Jenny's answers.

-Nicola, has she achieved Perfection?

-I think she's nearly there.

There's one, B, I'm not 100% certain that he was Conservative but I think she's nearly right.

-John, what do you think?

-She's nearly right but I would chance C.

-I'm almost sure that a nickel is not worth ten cents.

-All right, Jenny.

You need to have answered all statements perfectly to have won the round. How many are correct?

Two out of four. Not Perfection.

Which means you've let your enemies, the Usual Suspects, into the game.

Can you steal the round? You've seen Jenny's answers.

You need to change two of them, but which two?

It's not D because that's definitely right.

-Nicole Kidman, do you think she was born in the USA?

-She's Australian.

-Australian.

-Yeah, I think Anthony Eden was a Liberal.

Not 100% sure myself on the nickel. I would change B and C.

We'd like to change B and C, please, Nick.

OK, B changes from true to false,

C changes from true to false,

leaving A and D as answered by Jenny.

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

It's true.

She was actually born in Hawaii.

Obviously spent a long time in Australia so everyone believes her to be Australian.

You had a chance to steal the round from Jenny but failed to achieve Perfection.

I wonder whether you're still on Perfection at home.

Let's go through the rest of the statements and find out.

It's true, in actual fact.

It's false, a nickel is worth five cents.

Yeah, that's true.

Had you achieved Perfection you'd now have the chance

to make Jenny's chances of winning harder in the final. Here's how.

Jenny, in front of you is your final board.

The blank spaces need to be filled with categories.

Here are the final categories, starting with Sausages

and ranging through Javelin, Mythology,

on to Human Body with many more in between.

Because neither side won, the categories that were due to be chosen

will be carried over to the next round, meaning four categories will be on offer.

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

"Could do better" is the report.

We'll see you in Round 2, and away they go.

Looking at that list, which ones would you like?

Having just graduated, I'd have to say Universities, I'd probably quite like,

and maybe Actors.

OK, are you ready? Let's play Round 2.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

Erm, I think that sounds like a really long word

and a big shape so I'll go true on that one.

True.

Erm, I remember the poster for Cabaret

and it looked like Big Spender would be in that film so I'll go true.

True.

I think that goes through Hungary. I'm not sure.

-I think I'll say false on that one.

-False. And finally...

That's definitely true on that one.

True, and with time to spare, you've answered all four statements.

-Happy with that?

-Yeah, I think so.

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

These are the statements and next to them are Jenny's answers. Nicola, has she achieved Perfection?

I'm really not certain about the Big Spender one.

I can't remember hearing that in Cabaret. I don't think she's got Perfection.

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

Let's find out how many are correct.

Just two out of four. Certainly not Perfection.

Usual Suspects, you now have the chance to steal the round.

You need to change two answers. Which two?

-I don't think Big Spender was in Cabaret.

-Neither do I.

We want to go for B. Do you know any novels by Terry Pratchett?

It doesn't sound like the sort of novel he would write.

B and D, do you think?

-I definitely agree with B.

-What's it going to be?

I'm going to say change B to false and D to false, please.

B changes to false

and D changes from true to false,

leaving A and C as answered by Jenny.

Let's find out what the answers are.

Is that true or false?

Yeah, it's true.

Is that true or false? It is false, it's from Sweet Charity.

Is that true or false?

It's true.

Usual Suspects, you failed to steal the round again.

I wonder whether you achieved Perfection at home.

Yep, that's true.

Let's have a look at the board. Strangely empty after two rounds.

Because no-one won the round, the four categories that were due to be chosen

will be carried over to the next round,

meaning all six categories will be on offer in Round 3.

Usual Suspects, it's time to switch you off. Away they go.

-Are you ready to play?

-Yeah, ready.

-Let's play Round 3.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

I have absolutely no idea so let's just go true.

True.

I really don't know that one either.

-Let's go true on that one.

-True.

Erm, I know Poland's quite far north. I'll say that one's false.

False. And finally...

Well I don't think I've got Perfection on these!

I think I'll just go false.

False, and with a bit of time to spare,

you've answered all four statements.

That wasn't your favourite round?

I think I've embarrassed myself on that

and I've definitely got a few wrong.

It's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

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

-John, has she achieved Perfection?

-I don't think she's achieved Perfection. B is definitely wrong.

And C's wrong.

The Usual Suspects think you might have a couple wrong. Let's see how many are correct.

Two out of four, again.

Consistent but consistently not Perfect, unfortunately,

which means you've let the Usual Suspects into the game. Can you steal the round?

You can see Jenny's answers and need to change two of them.

-A, are you sure that's right?

-Definitely sure of that one.

-That's the darts player.

-Do you know poetry?

I think Kubla Khan is a poem by Coleridge.

I think Jenny knows about poetry

so I think she'd have that right so we'll change B and C, yeah?

-Definitely.

-Can we change B and C, please?

B changes from true to false.

C changes from false to true,

leaving A and D as answered by Jenny.

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

It's true.

Is that true or false?

It's false. Died in 1985.

It's false.

Usual Suspects, you had the third chance to steal the round

from Jenny but you failed to achieve Perfection.

So can you achieve Perfection at home?

Let's clear up the details on that one.

Yeah, it's true.

Let's look at the board. Still empty. We have six spaces left.

To fill those spaces, you'll take it in turns to choose a category.

Jenny, which category would you like first?

I think I'll go with Universities.

Universities goes across.

-Usual Suspects, please choose a category.

-Monsters?

Monsters or Mythology?

-Mythology, please.

-Mythology goes across. Jenny?

-I'll just go with Actors, I think.

-Actors. Usual Suspects?

Monsters next? Yeah, Monsters, please.

Yeah. Monsters. Jenny.

Erm, I'll try Buildings.

-Usual Suspects?

-I think Javelin.

I was going to say Javelin or Prime Ministers.

I think she's too young to know many prime ministers.

-Javelin, OK.

-Javelin, please.

Thank you very much.

We now know our six final categories.

It's time to switch you off for the final time.

What do you make of the ones they chose you?

I'm actually really happy they chose Javelin over Prime Ministers

because I'd be less embarrassed by not knowing a javelin player than not knowing a prime minister.

Jenny, for £1,000, it's time to play the final.

Jenny, this is the final.

If you can achieve Perfection, you could be leaving with £1,000.

If you fail, you leave with nothing

- great news for the Usual Suspects as one of them could be playing for a rollover of £2,000

on the next game.

Let's play the final round.

Jenny, here are your final categories.

You must answer all correctly if you want to win the £1,000.

Think carefully. There's no time limit but once you've given an answer, it's locked in.

-Ready.

-OK, let's reveal your first statement. Universities.

It seems a shame that I've picked that category

because I really don't know.

We've got a St Andrews building at our university in Norwich.

St Andrew sounds like quite an old name.

I don't know on that one.

I'll go... I'll start true.

-Let's start with true on that one.

-True.

Mythology.

I seem to remember that in Jason And The Argonauts.

I think maybe he's a sea character with a fork.

I think I'll have to go with true on that one, because I do remember that somewhere.

True. Actors.

Again, I really don't have any idea on that one

but maybe it's a trick question. Maybe it...

-I'll go with false on that one.

-False.

Monsters.

I have no idea.

I guess werewolf would have a lot of different names in different languages.

Maybe true. Let's go true on that one.

True. Buildings.

I picked this subject. I don't even know that. Never been to Dubai.

Petronas Twin Towers. I'll say true on that one, as well.

True. And finally Javelin.

LAUGHTER

Ah, don't know.

Unfortunately, I've not known any of these answers

and they've all just been a total guess,

but seeing as I've got four trues, I'll go with another false and even it up a bit.

-So I'll go false.

-False.

And with that, all those answers are locked in.

Remember - one, single mistake and you leave with nothing.

Which ones are you unsure of?

Erm, pretty much all of them except maybe I took a stab at B and I was right with that,

but I could be wrong with that, as well.

So I'm not confident... on pretty much any of them.

Let's switch on the Usual Suspects.

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements

and Jenny's answers. Jenny, 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.

Jenny, who would you like to hear from first?

Let's hear from Val first.

Hi, Jenny...I don't know them all myself.

Actually, I would struggle on two of them.

Could you come back to me on that, please.

OK, we'll go next, John.

We'll, Jenny, I don't think you've got Perfection

but even if I could help you, I wouldn't come down there, I think, for a share of a 1,000,

-so I'll wait and see.

-John's waiting for the money to roll up...

-Fair enough, fair enough.

Go on then, Nicola, give us your views.

I also don't think you've got Perfection

but I'm not 100% certain either, and I would not like to take

the share from you, so I think I'm out, as well.

Well, you have £1,000 to play with here, so do you want to talk to Val again?

Well, yeah. Val, you know, it's 50/50.

I've got as good a chance as any,

if we can work together and go home with 500 quid each, I'd love that.

It's up to you, Val.

-What do you think, Val?

-I want to be a help, not a hindrance and I'm not 100% sure.

-Let's put our heads together and do two heads are better than one.

-What do you think, Val?

Are you coming down for £500 or not?

Yeah, why not?

-Thank you!

-OK, negotiations seem to have been concluded.

Val, for £500 of the £1,000 pot, please come down and join us.

OK, Jenny, you asked Val for help and if you achieve Perfection

it will cost you £500 of your potential prize fund of £1,000.

Val, you've now forfeited your chance to play in the next game.

Here are the final round's statements. All six answers are now unlocked.

Val, which answers do you think Jenny should change?

Actually, I think you have got a very good board and you've done very well.

I have to say I guessed on a lot of them. But I just thought 50/50,

and I've mixed it up with true and false,

and then I thought if you could come down and you knew some of them...

I'll go...I'll go with you on Poseidon.

Let's start at the top cos I wasn't sure of that one.

St Andrew's is Scotland's oldest university.

And I picked that category but I really don't know.

But I think I had an educated guess at that one

and St Andrew's is a building outside of my college.

It's certainly the oldest golf course, I think.

Maybe we could come back to that one. We're certain on B?

-Yeah, I think we'll go with B, Poseidon.

-True.

Vin Diesel, you said false.

-You know the actor more so?

-No, no. That was a guess!

Well, yeah, definitely.

Petronas twin towers,

I don't think they're in Dubai, I think they're in Kuala Lumpur.

-So what do you think?

-Change Petronas.

-Let's change Petronas, yeah.

Petronas changes from true to false.

Vin Diesel's thrown me cos I've seen him but would that be a real name?

What do you think, any more changes or are you going to lock those answers in?

-I really don't know.

-I was hoping you would've known Vin Diesel.

I know, I'm sorry, I really don't know that.

That sounds like... that sounds like it could be false.

-That sound like a stage name and people change their names...

-I think it could be true though.

-Really?

-Yeah.

I think it actually could be his real name.

Yeah, we should change it?

It's your game.

Oh, God. I really don't know. Go on then, let's change it.

Changing C, yes?

Yeah, I think we should change C.

C changes from false to true.

Any others before we close up?

-It's 50/50.

-It's 50/50. Let's stick with that one.

-Locking them in?

-Yeah, lock them in.

-All the other answers are now locked in.

£1,000 at stake. £500 for Jenny, £500 for Val, six answers away.

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

Right at the top there St Andrew's is Scotland's oldest university.

You thought about this, you thought about changing it but you stuck with true.

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

Is it true or false?

It's true!

APPLAUSE

So that's a great start. Well done, the two of you.

Well done for NOT changing.

Poseidon was the Roman god of the sea.

Jenny you thought this was true.

Val came down to confirm that it was true.

You need it to turn green again.

Is it true or false?

It's false!

-AUDIENCE GROANS

-He's the Greek god of the sea.

Neptune is the Roman god.

I'm afraid you've failed to achieve Perfection

and you're not going home with any money.

I wonder if you achieved Perfection at home. Let's have a look and see how close you got.

Vin Diesel is the actor's actual birth name.

You decide to change from false to true.

Is it true or false?

It is false.

Mark Sinclair Vincent.

Lycanthrope is another name for a werewolf.

Jenny, you thought this might be true, we expect this turn green.

Is it true or false?

Yeah, it's true.

The Petronas twin towers are in Dubai.

You changed to false, is it true or false?

Yeah, it is actually false. It's in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Steve Backley won an Olympic gold medal, is that true or false?

It is false.

Four right, two wrong,

-not bad overall for a board that you were really struggling with.

-Not bad. Thank you.

Usual Suspects, that's good news for you. The prize fund rolls over to the next game where

one of you could be playing for a total of £2,000.

And they're looking very happy.

Jenny, Val, I'm afraid you failed to achieve Perfection

which means you both go with nothing but I hope you enjoyed playing the game.

-I've had a really good time, it's been great.

-I've had an absolute ball.

Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it for Val and Jenny.

APPLAUSE

That's all we have time for.

Please join us next time when our Usual Suspects

have the chance to play again, this time for £2,000.

It's not an easy one to win, this, you know?

We only pay for Perfection. Goodbye.
