0:00:02 > 0:00:07Welcome to the quiz show that demands perfection. Four contestants hope their knowledge is flawless
0:00:07 > 0:00:11because one mistake could give the game away. This is Perfection.
0:00:20 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE
0:00:22 > 0:00:26Welcome to the quiz show where only perfect play is good enough.
0:00:26 > 0:00:30Behind me are the contestants called the Usual Suspects.
0:00:30 > 0:00:36In a moment, we'll find out which one has been randomly selected to join me here to play Perfection.
0:00:36 > 0:00:40They'll then face a series of true or false statements. If I said...
0:00:41 > 0:00:44..would you say that's true or false?
0:00:44 > 0:00:47If you said "true", you'd be right.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50Answering "true" or "false" might seem easy,
0:00:50 > 0:00:55but if a contestant gets an answer wrong, their opponents join the game to capitalise on their mistakes.
0:00:55 > 0:01:00So you know how the game works. Let's meet the Usual Suspects.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hi, I'm Steph from Newcastle. I'm a doctor and this is my first game.
0:01:04 > 0:01:09Hi, I'm Mal from Shrewsbury. I'm an accountant. This is my first game.
0:01:09 > 0:01:14Hello, I'm John, I'm from Wolverhampton. I'm a local operation manager. This is my second game.
0:01:14 > 0:01:20Hi, I'm Nicola, I'm from Great Yarmouth. I'm a mystery shopper and this is my fourth game.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24Welcome to you all. We find out which one of you has been picked to play Perfection.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Steph, you've been chosen. Please come and play Perfection.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36- Steph, welcome to the game. A doctor in the house?- That's right.
0:01:36 > 0:01:42- A lot of years of study? - Yes, especially when you do another degree before Medicine.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46- Years of noodles and cabbage?- Yeah. - It's you versus the Usual Suspects.
0:01:46 > 0:01:50Their job is to stop you from winning the prize fund
0:01:50 > 0:01:56because your failure means the prize money rolls over and one of them could play for a bigger total.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Every game on Perfection is worth £1,000. Nobody won the last game,
0:02:00 > 0:02:04so the prize fund currently stands at £2,000.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07APPLAUSE
0:02:07 > 0:02:10If you leave with £2,000, what do you spend it on?
0:02:10 > 0:02:16Me and my best friend have talked about doing a trip down through America, doing a Thelma and Louise.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20- A little convertible car, something like that?- Yeah, defo.
0:02:20 > 0:02:26You'll play three rounds, then a final. Each round that you achieve perfection makes the final easier.
0:02:26 > 0:02:33But if it's less than perfect, the Usual Suspects can steal the round, making the final that much harder.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37Usual Suspects, we'll switch you off for now, so you can't see or hear anything.
0:02:37 > 0:02:43- And away they go. You can talk without giving away vital knowledge as they can't hear you.- OK.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47Each round consists of four true or false statements.
0:02:47 > 0:02:52You only have 45 seconds and once you've given your answer, your first answer, it's locked in.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55- Ready?- Yeah. - Let's play Perfection.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58APPLAUSE
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Round 1. Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08I've never seen The Wire.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10- True.- True.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- False.- False.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26- This had better be right. True.- True.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33True. It's a guess, but true.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35True. With loads of time to spare,
0:03:35 > 0:03:40- you've answered all four statements. Important to get C right?- Yes, very.
0:03:40 > 0:03:45Before we reveal how well you've done, it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48These were the four statements and Steph's answers.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52- Nicola, has she achieved perfection? - Definitely not.
0:03:52 > 0:03:57- I know for a fact that "A" is wrong, so she's not got perfection. - Nicola's not impressed.
0:03:57 > 0:04:04You need to have answered all four statements perfectly to have won the round. How many are correct?
0:04:10 > 0:04:17Three out of four is pretty good, but it's not perfection. You've let the Usual Suspects into the game.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21Can you steal the round? You need to change one of Steph's answers.
0:04:21 > 0:04:27- It's got to be "A". He was in Luther. He wasn't in The Wire. - Yeah, we're all agreed.
0:04:27 > 0:04:33- Can we change "A" to "false"? - "A" changes to "false", leaving B, C and D as answered by Steph.
0:04:33 > 0:04:38Let's see what the correct answers are. This first one will make all the difference.
0:04:38 > 0:04:43"Idris Elba played Stringer Bell in The Wire." Is that true or false?
0:04:43 > 0:04:45It is true.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Yes, he did.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50He was in Luther and he was also in The Wire.
0:04:50 > 0:04:56Well, well, well! Usual Suspects, you've failed to achieve perfection, so you've failed to take the round.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00I wonder whether you could achieve perfection at home?
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Let's run through the statements.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06"Beau Geste is a book by Robert Buchan." True or false?
0:05:06 > 0:05:11It's by PC Wren in actual fact, so it's false.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14"Quinine is a traditional treatment for malaria."
0:05:14 > 0:05:17You'll be very pleased to know it's true.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21- Thank God for that!- You can go back to practising. Well done.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24"Jack the Ripper lived at 10 Rillington Place."
0:05:24 > 0:05:26False.
0:05:26 > 0:05:32That was John Christie that lived at 10 Rillington Place. Usual Suspects, had you achieved perfection,
0:05:32 > 0:05:37you could make Steph's chances of winning the prize fund much harder in the final. Here's how.
0:05:37 > 0:05:43In front of you, Steph, are six blank spaces, all of which need to be filled with subject categories.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47You must answer all six correctly to win the prize fund.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Here are the final round categories.
0:05:52 > 0:05:58Had you achieved perfection, you could now add two categories of your choice,
0:05:58 > 0:06:03but because neither side won the round, the two categories are carried over to the next round,
0:06:03 > 0:06:09meaning four categories will be on offer. Usual Suspects, we'll switch you off.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12And away they go. What do you really want to avoid?
0:06:12 > 0:06:17- Margarine? I don't know. - You'd like to avoid Margarine?- Yeah.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21- Are you ready for the next round? - I am.- Let's play Round 2.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24APPLAUSE
0:06:25 > 0:06:27Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37- Not a clue. False.- False.
0:06:40 > 0:06:44She did sing with Robbie Williams. Was it No.1?
0:06:44 > 0:06:46- I think true.- True.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- I think that's true.- True.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Gatwick... I live in London. I should know this.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04- I think it's false.- False.
0:07:04 > 0:07:08With time to spare, you've answered all four statements.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11- That felt like a better round for you.- Hmm. Maybe.
0:07:11 > 0:07:16Before we reveal how well you've done, it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.
0:07:16 > 0:07:22- These were the four statements and Steph's answers. Has she achieved perfection, John?- She's done well.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24I'm a bit unsure about "A".
0:07:24 > 0:07:27But the other three I think she's got right.
0:07:27 > 0:07:33Steph, you need to have answered all four statements perfectly to have won the round. How many are correct?
0:07:40 > 0:07:44Congratulations, Steph. You have achieved perfection.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47Let's take a look at those answers in more detail.
0:07:47 > 0:07:52"A dumbledore is a type of spicy Irish sausage." You said that was false.
0:07:52 > 0:07:59It is false. It's actually an English dialect term for a bumblebee or a hedgehog.
0:07:59 > 0:08:00Ah!
0:08:00 > 0:08:04"Nicole Kidman has sung on a UK No.1 single." You said that was true.
0:08:04 > 0:08:09It is, of course, true. Something Stupid with Robbie Williams.
0:08:09 > 0:08:14"Americans often refer to aubergines as eggplants." They absolutely do.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18"Gatwick Airport is in Hampshire." That's false.
0:08:18 > 0:08:25It's in West Sussex. As a result of that perfect performance, you've made winning the prize fund easier.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29Let's look at your finals board which has nothing on it at all.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33Because you won that round, you can choose four categories -
0:08:33 > 0:08:36two from the last round and two from the first round.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Which ones do you fancy?
0:08:38 > 0:08:42I'll go with Catchphrases and The Brain.
0:08:42 > 0:08:46Catchphrases goes across and The Brain goes across.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50- I'm going to take The Internet. - The Internet. And finally...?
0:08:50 > 0:08:55- Let's go with Funny Cats, just to se what it is.- Funny Cats goes across.
0:08:55 > 0:09:00- She did well.- Very well. - You might get another chance in Round 3. I'll switch you off.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04- Away they go. Are you ready to play the next round?- I am.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07- Let's play Round 3. - APPLAUSE
0:09:08 > 0:09:11Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19- I think that's false.- False.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27- It sounds true. I'll say "true".- True.
0:09:33 > 0:09:38- I think I would have heard of that. I'm going to say "false".- False.
0:09:42 > 0:09:46- I don't think it is. I'm going to say "false".- False.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50With time to spare, you've answered all four statements. Good round?
0:09:50 > 0:09:56- I can never tell. Maybe.- Before we reveal how well you've done, let's bring back the Usual Suspects.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00These were the four statements and Steph's answers.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02John, has she achieved perfection?
0:10:02 > 0:10:09- I don't think she has this time and the one that I'd have doubts about is B.- Mal, what do you think?
0:10:09 > 0:10:13I tend to agree with John. I don't think there's 100,000 black cabs.
0:10:13 > 0:10:17There may be 100,000 taxis, but definitely not black cabs.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21As to the other three, I'm not 100% certain, so I won't comment on them.
0:10:21 > 0:10:27You need to have answered all four statements perfectly to have won the round. How many are correct?
0:10:31 > 0:10:34Just two out of four this time.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38You haven't achieved perfection, so you let the Usual Suspects back in.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42Can you steal the round? You need to change two of Steph's answers.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44I would definitely change B.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- I think that's far too many. - Which other one?
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- "A" would be my fancy. - Yeah, I think so.- Yeah.
0:10:51 > 0:10:55Yeah? A and B? A and B, please, Nick.
0:10:55 > 0:11:01OK, "A" changes from "false" to "true", B from "true" to "false", leaving C and D as Steph answered.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Let's find out the correct answers.
0:11:03 > 0:11:08"The dot over the letter 'i' is known as a fipple." True or false?
0:11:08 > 0:11:12It's false. Usual Suspects, you had the chance to steal the round,
0:11:12 > 0:11:17but you failed to achieve perfection at the first hurdle again.
0:11:17 > 0:11:23It's a tittle. Have you achieved perfection at home? Let's go through the rest of the statements.
0:11:23 > 0:11:28"There are over 100,000 black cabs in London." Is that true or false?
0:11:29 > 0:11:32It's between 20,000 and 25,000. That was false.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36"The author Dr Seuss worked as a GP." True or false?
0:11:36 > 0:11:39No, not a doctor at all.
0:11:39 > 0:11:43"Atlantic City is located in New Jersey." True or false?
0:11:43 > 0:11:46True. Usual Suspects, had you achieved perfection,
0:11:46 > 0:11:53you could have made Steph's chances of winning the prize fund much harder in the final, but you didn't.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56Let's have a look at the board.
0:11:56 > 0:12:01Four subjects on there all chosen by Steph so far and nobody managed to win Round 3,
0:12:01 > 0:12:06so you will take it in turns to choose a category. Steph, you get to choose first.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10- Which one would you like? - Let's go for The Seaside.
0:12:10 > 0:12:15The Seaside goes across. Usual Suspects, choose the only category.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19It's got to be Margarine to find out what they can ask about margarine.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22I don't think she would know much about Frank Sinatra.
0:12:22 > 0:12:28- I was thinking also because of her age, Old Money or Strikes. - Strikes, I think.- Yeah, fine.
0:12:28 > 0:12:34- We'll go for Strikes.- Strikes goes across. John, you won't get to find out about the margarine.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37- LAUGHTER - We know our six final categories.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47Usual Suspects, we switch you off for the final time.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51- An interesting board, given that you've chosen five of them.- Yeah.
0:12:51 > 0:12:56Well, Steph, for £2,000, it's time to play the final.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58Steph, this is the all-important final.
0:12:58 > 0:13:04If you achieve perfection, you will leave with £2,000, but if you fail, you leave with nothing
0:13:04 > 0:13:09and one of the Usual Suspects could be playing for £3,000 on the next game.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13- You need to stop that happening. - Yeah.- Let's play the final round.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16APPLAUSE
0:13:16 > 0:13:21Here are your final six categories. You must answer all six statements correctly to win £2,000.
0:13:21 > 0:13:27- There's no time limit, but once you've given an answer, it's locked in. Are you ready?- Yeah.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Let's reveal your first statement. Tell me whether it's true or false.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40I can picture Les Dawson
0:13:40 > 0:13:43in quite a few sketches
0:13:43 > 0:13:46and I can't see him saying that at all.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48So...
0:13:49 > 0:13:51I'm...
0:13:53 > 0:13:55..going to say "false".
0:13:55 > 0:13:57False.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08I have held a human brain in my hands.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10They are heavy.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13I think that could be true.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15True.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Jimmy Wales, have I heard of Jimmy Wales?
0:14:26 > 0:14:28I'm going to say "false".
0:14:28 > 0:14:29False.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40I'm trying to hear Garfield in my head.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46And I can't, but I don't think it was Bill Murray.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48- I don't think so. False.- False.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57- It's a guess. I'm going to say "true".- True.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09- It doesn't sound right. I'm going to say that's false as well.- False.
0:15:10 > 0:15:15And with that, Steph, those answers are now locked in.
0:15:15 > 0:15:20- If there's one mistake, you leave with nothing. Which ones are you worried about?- C...
0:15:22 > 0:15:26- And E, mainly.- OK, let's switch on the Usual Suspects.
0:15:26 > 0:15:31Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements and next to them are Steph's answers.
0:15:31 > 0:15:36Your answers are now locked in, but if you think you've made a mistake,
0:15:36 > 0:15:42you can unlock the board with the help of the Usual Suspects. This will, however, come at a cost.
0:15:42 > 0:15:48Usual Suspects, tell me how well you think Steph has done, if you want to help and how much it will cost.
0:15:48 > 0:15:53You can't refer to any statement specifically. Steph, who would you like to hear from first?
0:15:53 > 0:15:58- Mal first, please.- You've got two wrong and there's one other that I'm not sure about,
0:15:58 > 0:16:04so I'm not convinced that I could help you on this particular occasion, Steph.
0:16:04 > 0:16:09- You won't be coming down, no matter how much of the £2,000 is offered? - Not at this stage.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11OK. Can we try John?
0:16:11 > 0:16:16Hello, Steph. I know that you've definitely got one wrong
0:16:16 > 0:16:21And I'm doubtful about one other, so I don't know if I could help you to achieve perfection.
0:16:21 > 0:16:26- Are you ruling yourself out? - Yeah, I'll be out of that one.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30Right. I guess it's down to Nicola then.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33There's one I know is absolutely, definitely wrong.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37I would be prepared to come down for £1,000.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41I would be very happy to have you for £1,000.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44OK, negotiations have been concluded.
0:16:44 > 0:16:48Nicola, for £1,000 of the £2,000 pot, please come down and join us.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52Steph, you've asked Nicola for help.
0:16:52 > 0:16:58If you achieve perfection, it will cost you £1,000 of your £2,000 prize fund.
0:16:58 > 0:17:03Nicola, you cannot play in the next game. This is your only shot at winning perfection.
0:17:03 > 0:17:07- Have you made the right decision? - I hope so.- We're about to find out.
0:17:07 > 0:17:12- Here are the statements. Nicola, which answers do you want Steph to change?- Definitely E.
0:17:12 > 0:17:17I come from Great Yarmouth myself. It's in Norfolk, so that is definitely wrong.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21- OK.- The only one that I still wasn't sure on was F.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23- The 1970s?- How sure were you of that
0:17:23 > 0:17:27- Not at all.- I really wouldn't like to say on that one.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31So we're pretty sure on about five o them, then debatable on the last one
0:17:31 > 0:17:36- OK.- Steph, it is still your decision You don't have to listen to Nicola.
0:17:36 > 0:17:41However, the board is now unlocked, so you can change any or all or none of your answers.
0:17:41 > 0:17:47- Do you want to make any changes? - I definitely want to change the Grea Yarmouth one.- So E is changing
0:17:47 > 0:17:49from "true" to "false".
0:17:49 > 0:17:53- Then the Winter of Discontent... - Go with your gut feeling.
0:17:53 > 0:17:58But then my gut feeling was wrong, so my rule was go with the opposite.
0:17:58 > 0:18:02- So maybe we should change it to "true".- Yeah?- Yeah.
0:18:02 > 0:18:07- You want to change F?- Yeah. - From "false" to "true"?- Yeah.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10- Lock them in?- Lock them in. - Lock them in.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14£2,000 at stake.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16£1,000 to Steph, £1,000 to Nicola.
0:18:16 > 0:18:20Six answers away. Let's find out if you achieved perfection.
0:18:23 > 0:18:29Where shall we start? Let's start with the two that you changed. Let's start down at E.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33"Great Yarmouth is in Suffolk." Steph, you thought this was true.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37Nicola came down to change this to "false". As you live there...
0:18:37 > 0:18:42- I should know, shouldn't I? - You're fairly confident of this one. Is it true or false?
0:18:42 > 0:18:45It is false. Well done.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47APPLAUSE
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Yes, it is in Norfolk.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52"The Winter of Discontent took place in the 1970s."
0:18:52 > 0:18:56You originally said "false". Nicola came down and said,
0:18:56 > 0:19:02"Go with your gut feeling." You went against your gut feeling and changed it to "true".
0:19:02 > 0:19:04You now need this to turn green.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Is it true or false?
0:19:07 > 0:19:09- It is true.- Oh, my God!
0:19:09 > 0:19:11APPLAUSE
0:19:11 > 0:19:14Very good. So up to the top now.
0:19:14 > 0:19:19"'How tickled I am' was Les Dawson's catchphrase." You said "false".
0:19:19 > 0:19:22You need this to turn red. Is it true or false?
0:19:23 > 0:19:26- It is false. - APPLAUSE
0:19:26 > 0:19:30- It is in fact Ken Dodd's catchphrase.- Of course it is!
0:19:30 > 0:19:36Nothing to do with Les Dawson. We move on to The Brain which is one you chose yourself.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40"The average human brain weighs more than 10kg." You are a doctor.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43So this one should be fairly straightforward.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47- You said you've actually held one. - I have.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51You felt it was really heavy, so you said "true" and stuck to "true".
0:19:51 > 0:19:56You need this to turn green to put you just two away from the £2,000.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Is it true or false?
0:20:01 > 0:20:05- It's false.- Oh, no.- Oh, no!
0:20:05 > 0:20:07They average about 1.5 kilos.
0:20:07 > 0:20:12- Oh, no!- Seriously, that's half a sac of spuds, ten kilos.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14LAUGHTER
0:20:14 > 0:20:20I wonder if you can achieve perfection at home? Let's look at the rest of the statements.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24"Jimmy Wales is a co-founder of Wikipedia." You said "false".
0:20:24 > 0:20:27- It's true.- Good.- It's actually true.
0:20:27 > 0:20:32- Yes, that's a relief. - Makes you feel better.- That wasn't the only one you lost on.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36"Bill Murray provided the voice of Garfield." True or false?
0:20:36 > 0:20:39That's true, actually. Yes, he did.
0:20:39 > 0:20:44In the end, it was a 50-50 round, three right, three wrong.
0:20:44 > 0:20:49Usual Suspects, that's great news for you. The prize fund rolls over to the next game
0:20:49 > 0:20:52where one of you could be playing for £3,000.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55APPLAUSE
0:20:55 > 0:21:01Steph and Nicola, you haven't achieved perfection, so you go home with nothing. Did you enjoy it?
0:21:01 > 0:21:05- Yeah.- It's been fantastic.- Ladies and gentlemen, Nicola and Steph!
0:21:07 > 0:21:12It's now time to meet the next Usual Suspects hoping to play Perfection today.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16New Usual Suspects, please introduce yourselves.
0:21:16 > 0:21:21Hi, I'm Richard, I'm from Huddersfield and I'm an insurance claims analyst.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25I'm Ruth from Barnet in London and I'm a receptionist/administrator.
0:21:25 > 0:21:29Let's find out which one of you has been picked to play Perfection.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37John, you've been selected. Please come and play Perfection.
0:21:37 > 0:21:44John, welcome to the game. Wolverhampton is a quiet fishing village just outside Birmingham(?)
0:21:44 > 0:21:50- It's a really long walk to the beach.- About as far as you can get! - I think it is, yeah.
0:21:50 > 0:21:57OK, John, it's now you versus the Usual Suspects. They're now your enemies.
0:21:57 > 0:22:04Every game is worth £1,000. As nobody's won the last two games, the prize fund now stands at £3,000.
0:22:06 > 0:22:12- What would you spend it on? - I said I'd get as many members of my family together
0:22:12 > 0:22:16- and have a really good weekend. - Nice. Good luck.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20Usual Suspects, we'll switch you off. And away they go.
0:22:20 > 0:22:25- John, you ready?- Yeah, no problem. - Then let's play Perfection.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Round One. Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:22:34 > 0:22:38- Em...I'll go False with that. - False.- Yeah.
0:22:42 > 0:22:47- I think that's True. I seem to remember that being a soup.- True.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53George W Bush...
0:22:53 > 0:22:58- How old's he now? Vietnam War... True. I'll go True with that.- True.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00And, finally...
0:23:04 > 0:23:09No, that would have been quite recent, so I'll say False.
0:23:09 > 0:23:13With time to spare you've answered all four. Good round?
0:23:13 > 0:23:17I'm kind of sure about three. Not too sure about one.
0:23:17 > 0:23:23It's time to bring back the Usual Suspects. These were the four statements and John's answers.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27- Mal, has he achieved perfection? - I don't think he has.
0:23:27 > 0:23:35I'm not sure about one. I'm pretty sure Vera Lynn did have a number one album in her 90s.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39They re-released all her war records. That's probably wrong.
0:23:39 > 0:23:45John, you need to have answered all four perfectly to win the round. Let's find out how many are correct.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52Two out of four. I'm afraid that's not perfection
0:23:52 > 0:23:57and you've let the Usual Suspects in. Can you steal this round?
0:23:57 > 0:24:03- You need to change two. Which two? - Vera Lynn needs changing. So we need to change one other.
0:24:03 > 0:24:08Bouillabaisse is definitely a fish stew. So is it A or C?
0:24:08 > 0:24:14I'm not convinced if George W Bush fought in Vietnam or... Trying to think how old he is.
0:24:14 > 0:24:19- He possibly could have done. - They were all in their late teens. - The top one?
0:24:19 > 0:24:26- He was definitely in Star Trek, but I don't know what character. - That's what's worrying me.
0:24:26 > 0:24:31- Was it Sulu? Could it be Sulu? - I think that's right.
0:24:31 > 0:24:36- So we'll leave A as it is. - And we'll change... - Change C and D.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39We'll change C to False and D to True.
0:24:39 > 0:24:45C changes from True to False and D from False to True, leaving A and B as answered.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49Let's find out the correct answers.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53George Takei played Chekov in Star Trek. True or False?
0:24:53 > 0:24:57It is False. He played Sulu, just as you said, Ruth.
0:24:57 > 0:25:03Bouillabaisse is a type of fish stew or soup. Is that True or False?
0:25:03 > 0:25:08It is True. George W Bush fought in the Vietnam War. True or False?
0:25:09 > 0:25:14False. He famously didn't go to Vietnam.
0:25:14 > 0:25:20And, finally, Vera Lynn had a number one album in her 90s. True or False?
0:25:20 > 0:25:22It is True. Congratulations.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26You've achieved perfection.
0:25:27 > 0:25:32It was in 2009 at the age of 92 that she had a number one album.
0:25:32 > 0:25:38John, they have stolen the round. You can now make the chances of John winning the prize fund much harder
0:25:38 > 0:25:41and here's how.
0:25:41 > 0:25:47John, this is your final board. These six blank spaces need to be filled with categories.
0:25:47 > 0:25:55Here are your final round categories. Statues, singers, Trojan War and a few others.
0:25:55 > 0:26:02Because they stole the round, they choose the two categories to make it harder for you to win.
0:26:02 > 0:26:08- Which two would you like John to play in the final?- I'm thinking Spongebob.- He has grandchildren.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11- Ah, right. OK.- Might leave that one.
0:26:11 > 0:26:16- He didn't do too well with US politics.- Yeah, that could be one.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20OK, yeah. US politics, please, Nick.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23Goes across. We need one more.
0:26:23 > 0:26:28- Statues?- Whodunnits? - Statues is quite an open subject.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32- Or the Navy.- What about statues? It's quite an open subject.
0:26:32 > 0:26:36- It could be... - It's quite vague, isn't it?
0:26:36 > 0:26:41- I'm quite happy with statues. - Statues, Nick, is the consensus.
0:26:41 > 0:26:47Statues is going across. Well done. It's time to switch you off and we'll see you in Round Two.
0:26:47 > 0:26:51- What do you think? US politics? - I'm not worried about either.
0:26:51 > 0:26:56- I'd have preferred Spongebob. - Would you?!- Yeah.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59- Which ones do you want to avoid? - Whodunnits.
0:26:59 > 0:27:06- And...Australia.- All right. It's only the first round. You still have two more to achieve perfection.
0:27:06 > 0:27:10- Are you ready?- Ready, yeah. - Let's play Round Two.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Your 45 seconds start now.
0:27:17 > 0:27:23- Yeah, the team's nickname is The Hatters. I'll go for True.- True.
0:27:28 > 0:27:3019th century...
0:27:30 > 0:27:35- Em, I'll go with False. I think he's older than that.- False.
0:27:39 > 0:27:45- I'm not good at geography, but I think they are actually. I'll go with True.- True.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47And finally...
0:27:50 > 0:27:57- Yeah, that's True.- True. And with time to spare, you've answered all four statements. Happy?
0:27:57 > 0:28:03- Yeah, I'm quite happy. - OK, it's time for us to bring back the Usual Suspects.
0:28:03 > 0:28:09These were the four statements and John's answers. Richard, has he achieved perfection?
0:28:09 > 0:28:14He's not. C is wrong. The Faroes are part of Denmark.
0:28:14 > 0:28:21- Mal?- I agree with Richard. And the Romans, I think that one is False as well.
0:28:21 > 0:28:26John, you need all four to win the round. How many are correct?
0:28:29 > 0:28:36Just one out of four. You certainly haven't achieved perfection and you've let your enemies in.
0:28:36 > 0:28:41Can they steal the round? You need to change three answers.
0:28:41 > 0:28:46- Dead easy. Luton is hat-making. - Picasso I think was 20th century.
0:28:46 > 0:28:51- Nick, we'll change B to True. - B changes from False to True.
0:28:51 > 0:28:54- C to False. - C changes from True to False.
0:28:54 > 0:28:59- And D to False.- True to False. Leaving A as answered by John.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02Let's see the correct answers.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05The town of Luton was famous for hat-making. True or False?
0:29:05 > 0:29:07True.
0:29:07 > 0:29:11Picasso was born in the 19th century. True or False?
0:29:11 > 0:29:13Yeah, absolutely true.
0:29:13 > 0:29:17The Faroe Islands are part of the UK. True or False?
0:29:17 > 0:29:23It is False, actually. A self-governing territory of Denmark. Quite right, Richard.
0:29:23 > 0:29:28The Romans occupied Britain for over 1,000 years. True or False?
0:29:28 > 0:29:33False. Congratulations, Usual Suspects. You achieved perfection.
0:29:33 > 0:29:39The Romans only occupied Britain for about 350 years. It certainly wasn't a thousand.
0:29:39 > 0:29:46John, the Usual Suspects have stolen the round. Let's see the final board. Two subjects on there
0:29:46 > 0:29:51and because you won the round you choose the next two as well.
0:29:51 > 0:29:59- So, Usual Suspects, which two would you like?- I'm thinking Musicals. He doesn't seem a musical guy.- No.
0:29:59 > 0:30:05- Yeah, well, I agree. Musicals could be hard. - We'll go with Musicals, Nick.
0:30:05 > 0:30:11- Musicals goes across. I need one more.- Fawlty Towers is wide-ranging.
0:30:11 > 0:30:15- There's only 12 episodes.- Yeah. - And most of them are well-known.
0:30:15 > 0:30:18- Yeah. And they're well-repeated. Whodunnits?- Yeah.
0:30:18 > 0:30:24- Whodunnits, please, Nick. - Whodunnits goes across. You won the second round.
0:30:24 > 0:30:28Time to switch you off and we'll see you in Round Three.
0:30:28 > 0:30:34- They've worked you out! - They said I don't look musical. What do they mean?- I don't know!
0:30:34 > 0:30:38You still have one more chance to choose your own categories.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42- Shall we press on?- Yeah. - Let's play Round Three.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47Your 45 seconds start now.
0:30:50 > 0:30:52Kes...
0:30:52 > 0:30:55- Yeah, I'll go for True with that. - True.
0:31:01 > 0:31:05- No, wasn't he a dancer? I'll go False with that.- False.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15- Yeah, that's True. I remember that. - True.- That's True.- And finally...
0:31:25 > 0:31:29- I can't think of five, but I'll go True.- True.
0:31:29 > 0:31:38- You've answered all four statements. What do you think?- I thought it was OK. It's as OK as the others!
0:31:38 > 0:31:43All right, before we reveal how you did, time for the Usual Suspects.
0:31:43 > 0:31:48These were the four statements and John's answers. Richard?
0:31:48 > 0:31:54I think he's done a good job there. The only thing I'm not certain about is the US states.
0:31:54 > 0:31:58I can only think of four, so that one may be wrong.
0:31:58 > 0:32:05- Mal?- I'm in agreement with Richard. I can only think of four US states with the word New in.- OK, John.
0:32:05 > 0:32:10You need all four to win the round. Let's find out how many are correct.
0:32:16 > 0:32:22- Three out of four's not bad, but it's not perfection.- No. - You've let your enemies in.
0:32:22 > 0:32:27You can see John's answers. You need to change one of them.
0:32:27 > 0:32:32- But which one?- New Jersey, New Hampshire, New Mexico...
0:32:32 > 0:32:36- New Jersey.- Yeah, we'll change D, Nick, to False.
0:32:36 > 0:32:41D changes from True to False, leaving A, B and C as answered.
0:32:41 > 0:32:48Let's find out the correct answers. Ken Loach directed the film Kes. Is that True or False?
0:32:48 > 0:32:49True.
0:32:49 > 0:32:54Nijinksy was an 18th-century Russian composer. True or False?
0:32:54 > 0:32:56False. Yes, a ballet dancer.
0:32:56 > 0:33:01Bruce Forsyth was awarded a knighthood in 2011. True or False?
0:33:01 > 0:33:08True. And quite right, too. The names of five US states start with New. True or False?
0:33:08 > 0:33:10Yeah, it's False. Congratulations.
0:33:10 > 0:33:14You have achieved perfection.
0:33:14 > 0:33:21We'll run through them if you like. New Mexico, New Jersey, New York and New Hampshire.
0:33:21 > 0:33:25There are only four. Let's see the final board.
0:33:25 > 0:33:31Four subjects on there. Because you won the last round, you choose the last two categories
0:33:31 > 0:33:36to add to the board. Which two do you think will trip him up?
0:33:36 > 0:33:41- I thought of the Navy. That's a massive subject.- Yeah, it's fine.
0:33:41 > 0:33:46- OK? The Navy, please, Nick. - Navy goes across.
0:33:46 > 0:33:50- Spongebob?- I think Spongebob. - OK, Ruth?- I'm happy.
0:33:50 > 0:33:56- Spongebob, please, Nick. - Spongebob goes into the final. We know our six final categories.
0:34:02 > 0:34:06OK, guys. Time to switch you off. And away they go.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09- The Navy?- You never know with that.
0:34:09 > 0:34:17- And they did you a favour. - With Spongebob, yeah.- For £3,000, it's time to play the final.
0:34:18 > 0:34:25John, this is the final. If you can achieve perfection, you could leave with £3,000. Or you get nothing,
0:34:25 > 0:34:31which is great news for them as one could play for £4,000 on the next game.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34Let's play the final round.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38Here are your six final categories.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42You must answer all six correctly to win the £3,000. Think carefully.
0:34:42 > 0:34:48- There's no time limit, but your first answer is locked in. Ready?- Born ready.
0:34:48 > 0:34:52Let's reveal your first statement.
0:34:58 > 0:35:03I'll go False with that. I remember the bodybuilder. Schwarzenegger.
0:35:03 > 0:35:07- Wasn't he a governor? I'll go False.- False.
0:35:14 > 0:35:22That's that little statue of the boy... We'll leave that there. I'll say that's True.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24True.
0:35:33 > 0:35:37- Evita... Yeah, I think that's True.- True.
0:35:45 > 0:35:49I seem to remember hearing that's the longest-running play.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52I couldn't remember when it started.
0:35:54 > 0:35:57- Yeah, I'll go with True with that. - True.
0:36:03 > 0:36:08- Yeah, I'd say that's True. I'd say that's True.- True.
0:36:08 > 0:36:11And, finally, Spongebob.
0:36:15 > 0:36:20- Definitely, yes.- So you're saying? - Definitely True.- True.
0:36:20 > 0:36:24And with that, John, those answers are locked in.
0:36:24 > 0:36:30- If there's one mistake, you go home with nothing. Which worry you? - C and D, really.
0:36:30 > 0:36:36Let's switch on the Usual Suspects. You can see the final six statements and next to them are John's answers.
0:36:36 > 0:36:42Answers are locked in, but if you think you made a mistake, you can unlock them with the Usual Suspects.
0:36:42 > 0:36:46However, this will come at a cost. Who would you like to hear first?
0:36:46 > 0:36:53- We'll go with Ruth first, please. - Can you tell me how confident you are with these answers?
0:36:53 > 0:36:57I'm quite confident with four. Two I'm not sure with.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00I'm confident on half of them.
0:37:00 > 0:37:04I don't think I'm confident enough to risk the money,
0:37:04 > 0:37:11- so I would like to rule myself out. Thank you.- Ruth ruling herself out of £3,000. Out of interest,
0:37:11 > 0:37:14what if he offered you £2,900?
0:37:14 > 0:37:21- Would you consider coming down? - If he was happy to do that and risk that on a 50/50 basis,
0:37:21 > 0:37:27- I'm happy to do that. - So it's not that she can't be bought. It's the amount.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31- Who next?- Richard.- I think you possibly have three wrong.
0:37:31 > 0:37:36However, I'm not entirely confident so I'd like to rule myself out.
0:37:36 > 0:37:40- Richard's not coming to help. Who's next?- Just Mal, then.
0:37:40 > 0:37:45I think you've got two wrong and there's one other I'm not certain of.
0:37:45 > 0:37:50I don't want to waste your opportunity. I'm out this time.
0:37:50 > 0:37:58Doesn't want to waste your opportunity! Do you think you've done it or do you want to throw cash
0:37:58 > 0:38:05- towards Ruth, who might consider it? What do you think?- What if we went half each, Ruth?- £1,500.
0:38:05 > 0:38:10- Yes, I'll come down for £1,500. - OK, negotiations are complete.
0:38:10 > 0:38:14For £1,500, please come and join us.
0:38:15 > 0:38:22John, you've asked Ruth for help. It will cost you £1,500 of your potential prize fund of £3,000.
0:38:22 > 0:38:28Ruth, you've forfeited your chance to play in the next game.
0:38:28 > 0:38:34Here are the final round statements. All six are now unlocked. Which answers do you want John to change?
0:38:34 > 0:38:40- I don't know for sure that he's got any wrong.- I'm not sure about The Mousetrap.
0:38:40 > 0:38:46- Think it's been going longer than 50 years, 60 years?- I'm trying to go through the number of shows
0:38:46 > 0:38:53rather than the years it's been playing. It has been going a long time. It's whether you'd like
0:38:53 > 0:39:01- to change your answers on a "not sure" guess of mine.- OK. - Or whether you're happy.
0:39:01 > 0:39:09I didn't come down here to bluff, but I don't want you to lose by my giving you the wrong answer.
0:39:09 > 0:39:14John, it's still your decision. You don't have to listen to Ruth,
0:39:14 > 0:39:20- but you can change any or all or none of your answers. - I'll change D to False.
0:39:20 > 0:39:26- D changes from True to False. Is that the only change you want to make?- And...
0:39:26 > 0:39:33If you're not sure, go with gut instinct. Whatever that is, it's probably the answers you gave.
0:39:33 > 0:39:37- I'll leave it. - All the rest get locked in.
0:39:37 > 0:39:41Your answers are now... locked in.
0:39:41 > 0:39:47£3,000 at stake - £1,500 to you, John, and £1,500 to Ruth.
0:39:47 > 0:39:51Six answers away. Let's find out if you've achieved perfection.
0:39:52 > 0:39:59Let's start at the top. Only those born in the US can be state governors. You said False.
0:39:59 > 0:40:03You need this to turn red. Is it True or False?
0:40:04 > 0:40:08- Good start.- It is False. - We haven't got them all wrong!
0:40:08 > 0:40:14And Arnold Schwarzenegger is a prime example. Governor of California.
0:40:14 > 0:40:19So the Manneken Pis is a famous Brussels landmark. You said True.
0:40:19 > 0:40:23Is it True or False? ..It is True.
0:40:24 > 0:40:29Oh What A Circus is a song from Evita. You said that's True.
0:40:29 > 0:40:33You need this to turn green. Is it True or False?
0:40:33 > 0:40:35It is True.
0:40:37 > 0:40:44- Well, well.- The big moment. - Halfway to the £3,000. Ruth, what would you spend the money on?
0:40:44 > 0:40:51I've got a big family function coming up early next year, so it would go towards that.
0:40:51 > 0:40:55Lovely. The Mousetrap play premiered in the 1950s.
0:40:55 > 0:41:00This was the only one you were unsure of, so let's leave that
0:41:00 > 0:41:07and move on to the others. Royal Navy Commodores rank below Rear Admirals. You said True.
0:41:07 > 0:41:09Is it True or False?
0:41:09 > 0:41:11It is True.
0:41:13 > 0:41:18Ruth, when he was looking through this, he actually wanted Spongebob.
0:41:18 > 0:41:25I wonder if you've given him the ammunition to help you get to the £3,000.
0:41:25 > 0:41:30Spongebob Squarepants lives in Bikini Bottom. You said True. You were most confident.
0:41:30 > 0:41:34- This will turn green?- I hope so! - Is it True or False?
0:41:34 > 0:41:36True!
0:41:38 > 0:41:45- Just the one now. Oh, no! - Here's where you find out whether having Ruth unlock the board for you
0:41:45 > 0:41:51has won you the £3,000 or has lost you the £3,000. It all rests on this.
0:41:51 > 0:41:57If you get this right, John, you go home with £1,500, Ruth, you go home with £1,500.
0:41:57 > 0:42:03Wrong and you go home with nothing. The Mousetrap play premiered in the 1950s.
0:42:03 > 0:42:09You thought about it. You need this now to turn red to win the £3,000.
0:42:09 > 0:42:15So has bringing Ruth down made you £1,500
0:42:15 > 0:42:18or lost you £3,000?
0:42:18 > 0:42:22You need this to turn red.
0:42:22 > 0:42:26The Mousetrap play premiered in the 1950s.
0:42:27 > 0:42:33For £3,000, is it True or False?
0:42:42 > 0:42:44It's True!
0:42:44 > 0:42:51- Oh! You got it all right on your own! You had it all right. - Never mind.- Oh, God. I'm so sorry.
0:42:51 > 0:42:55It's all part of the game. You didn't achieve perfection
0:42:55 > 0:42:58so you haven't won the cash.
0:42:58 > 0:43:02Well, Usual Suspects, great news for you. The prize fund rolls over
0:43:02 > 0:43:06and one of you could play for a total of £4,000!
0:43:06 > 0:43:11I'm afraid on this occasion you failed to achieve perfection
0:43:11 > 0:43:18- and you both go home with nothing. I hope you enjoyed playing. - It's been a good laugh.- Great.
0:43:18 > 0:43:20Ruth and John!
0:43:22 > 0:43:26Wow. That's all we have time for. Please join us again next time
0:43:26 > 0:43:31when the Usual Suspects play for £4,000. This can be a cruel game
0:43:31 > 0:43:35and we only pay for perfection. Goodbye.
