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

0:00:020:00:05

Behind this screen are four contestants who hope their knowledge is flawless

0:00:050:00:09

because one single mistake could give the game away.

0:00:090:00:12

This is Perfection.

0:00:120:00:13

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

0:00:250:00:29

Behind me are the contestants, the Usual Suspects.

0:00:290:00:32

They're in our Isolation Room.

0:00:320:00:34

In a moment, we'll find out which one of them has been randomly selected

0:00:340:00:37

to join me here to play Perfection.

0:00:370:00:39

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

0:00:390:00:42

For example, if I said, "Tony Blair was born in the 1950s",

0:00:420:00:45

would you say that was true or false?

0:00:450:00:48

Well, if you'd said "true",

0:00:480:00:50

I can tell you you'd be right.

0:00:500:00:52

Answering "true" or "false" might seem easy,

0:00:520:00:54

but if the contestant gets a single answer wrong,

0:00:540:00:57

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

0:00:570:01:02

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

0:01:020:01:07

I'm Linda. I'm from Devon.

0:01:070:01:09

I'm a secretary administrator, and this is my first game.

0:01:090:01:12

Hi, I'm Mike from Sheffield.

0:01:120:01:13

I'm an architect, and this is my first game.

0:01:130:01:16

Hi, I'm Aubrey from Burton-on-Trent.

0:01:160:01:19

I'm a brewery worker, and this is my sixth game.

0:01:190:01:22

Hi, I'm Jessica from Stockport.

0:01:220:01:23

I'm a biology student, and this is my eighth game.

0:01:230:01:26

Good luck to you all

0:01:260:01:27

as we find out which one of you has been randomly picked

0:01:270:01:30

to play Perfection.

0:01:300:01:31

Jessica, it is you! You have been chosen.

0:01:350:01:38

Please come and play Perfection.

0:01:380:01:41

Welcome to the game.

0:01:420:01:43

-Thank you.

-Is it exciting or nerve-racking to be finally down here?

0:01:430:01:47

-It's nerve-racking. I'm used to my little chair up there.

-Right.

0:01:470:01:51

-LAUGHTER

-It's you versus the Usual Suspects.

0:01:510:01:53

They were, for a long time, your team-mates. They're now your enemies.

0:01:530:01:57

They have to stop you winning the prize fund. Your failure means the money

0:01:570:02:01

rolls over to the next game, where one of them could be playing for a bigger total.

0:02:010:02:05

Every game on Perfection is worth £1,000.

0:02:050:02:08

Now, unfortunately for you, the previous game was won,

0:02:080:02:11

so the prize fund is reset to £1,000.

0:02:110:02:14

APPLAUSE

0:02:140:02:15

It's a decent amount of money in this day and age.

0:02:150:02:18

What will you spend it on?

0:02:180:02:19

I want to go to Las Vegas for my birthday and hopefully do a tour

0:02:190:02:24

over the Grand Canyon, which would be a great help towards that.

0:02:240:02:28

I was worried you were going to put it on the cards!

0:02:280:02:30

LAUGHTER Yeah, just blow it all!

0:02:300:02:33

Very nice. Good luck. I hope it goes well for you, you walk out of here with the cash.

0:02:330:02:39

The game works by you playing three rounds and a final.

0:02:390:02:41

Each round you achieve perfection makes the final easier. If your performance is less than perfect,

0:02:410:02:46

the Usual Suspects can step in and steal the round, making the final harder for you.

0:02:460:02:51

More of that to follow.

0:02:510:02:53

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

0:02:530:02:56

so you can't see or hear anything.

0:02:560:02:59

And away they go.

0:02:590:03:00

-Jessica, you can talk through your answers without giving away any vital knowledge, OK?

-OK.

0:03:000:03:04

Each round has four true or false statements.

0:03:040:03:07

You answer against the clock. You only have 45 seconds.

0:03:070:03:10

Once you've given your answers, they'll be locked in.

0:03:100:03:13

-You ready?

-Yep.

0:03:130:03:14

OK, then let's play Perfection.

0:03:140:03:16

Your 45 seconds starts now.

0:03:200:03:23

That's false cos she played M.

0:03:260:03:29

I've no idea about football.

0:03:350:03:37

I'm going to say false, I think.

0:03:370:03:39

-False?

-Yeah.

0:03:390:03:41

Yes, I know that.

0:03:460:03:47

That's true.

0:03:470:03:49

I think she was a model, wasn't she?

0:03:540:03:56

So, I'd say false.

0:03:560:03:58

And with plenty of time to spare,

0:03:580:04:00

you've answered all four statements.

0:04:000:04:03

-That sounded like a fairly strong round for you.

-I hope so.

0:04:030:04:06

-Anything you're worried about?

-B.

0:04:060:04:09

I don't know anything about football.

0:04:090:04:11

-So, that's a bit of a guess?

-Yeah.

0:04:110:04:13

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

0:04:130:04:17

So, these were the four statements.

0:04:170:04:20

Next to them are Jessica's answers.

0:04:200:04:22

Aubrey, has she achieved perfection?

0:04:220:04:25

I believe she may have done.

0:04:250:04:27

If not, the only one that I could see wrong

0:04:270:04:29

-is C.

-Interesting.

0:04:290:04:31

Jessica, the moment of truth.

0:04:310:04:33

You need to have answered all four perfectly.

0:04:330:04:35

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

0:04:350:04:38

APPLAUSE

0:04:460:04:47

Congratulations, Jessica. You have achieved perfection.

0:04:510:04:54

You've kept the Usual Suspects out of the game.

0:04:540:04:58

Let's have a look at those answers. If the statement's true, it will turn green.

0:04:580:05:01

If it's false, it will turn red.

0:05:010:05:04

-It is false. She played...

-M.

-M, very good.

0:05:100:05:12

-Bit of a guess, that one?

-Yeah.

0:05:160:05:19

But it turned out to be a good guess

0:05:190:05:21

because it is false.

0:05:210:05:22

-Birmingham play at St Andrew's.

-Oh, right.

0:05:220:05:27

You're right. It was true.

0:05:290:05:32

-LAUGHTER

-And it was false.

0:05:320:05:35

It was actually Heather Small

0:05:350:05:38

who was lead singer of M People.

0:05:380:05:40

-So, fantastic!

-Yes.

-Couldn't have gone much better for you!

0:05:400:05:43

-Bad luck, guys. You didn't get a look-in there, did you?

-No.

0:05:430:05:46

Aubrey, she'll keep you out! Never mind sitting next to each other for six games!

0:05:460:05:50

She's taking the money! As a result of that perfect performance,

0:05:500:05:53

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

0:05:530:05:57

This is your final board. These six blank spaces need to be filled with subject categories.

0:05:570:06:02

Behind each category will be a true or false statement

0:06:020:06:06

and you'll need to answer correctly all six to win the prize fund.

0:06:060:06:10

Here are your final round categories,

0:06:100:06:12

ranging from UK Food, through Tudors, Hats,

0:06:120:06:15

Spice Girls and onto Wartime, with many more in-between.

0:06:150:06:18

Because you won the round, you can choose two categories to add to the board.

0:06:180:06:22

If the Usual Suspects had won the round,

0:06:220:06:24

they would be adding two categories of their choice, trying to make your life harder in the final.

0:06:240:06:30

-Which two do you fancy?

-It looks like a quite hard board today.

0:06:300:06:33

I think I'm going to rely

0:06:330:06:35

on my childhood obsession with Spice Girls.

0:06:350:06:39

Spice Girls goes across.

0:06:390:06:41

And...

0:06:410:06:42

Big Cats as well, please.

0:06:420:06:43

And Big Cats.

0:06:430:06:45

Lovely, thank you very much.

0:06:450:06:47

Usual Suspects, we'll see you in the next round. I wonder whether

0:06:470:06:50

she'll give you a look-in or whether you'll have to sit and watch.

0:06:500:06:54

In the meantime, we're going to switch you off. And away they go.

0:06:540:06:57

With the Usual Suspects gone,

0:06:570:06:58

which ones would you really not want to get?

0:06:580:07:01

I'm not very good at geography,

0:07:010:07:02

so definitely Deserts.

0:07:020:07:04

I'm not good at history, so Wartime.

0:07:040:07:06

All right, well, Jessica, you've made a great start.

0:07:060:07:09

-Are you ready to play the second round?

-Yes.

0:07:090:07:11

Good. Let's play round two.

0:07:110:07:13

APPLAUSE

0:07:130:07:14

Your 45 seconds starts now.

0:07:170:07:19

Um... No idea, but I'll say true.

0:07:230:07:25

Um... false.

0:07:300:07:33

Um...

0:07:380:07:40

I don't know.

0:07:400:07:42

True.

0:07:420:07:44

It sounds right, that name. I don't like Coldplay, but I'll go true.

0:07:500:07:54

And with time to spare,

0:07:540:07:56

you've answered all four statements.

0:07:560:07:58

You weren't so happy with that round.

0:07:580:08:00

-No, it was a bit iffier, that one.

-Yeah.

0:08:000:08:03

-Any in particular or was it just a rough round all round?

-All of them.

0:08:030:08:06

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

0:08:060:08:10

So, these were the four statements.

0:08:100:08:12

Next to them are Jessica's answers.

0:08:120:08:16

Linda, has she let you in with a chance here or has she got it all right again?

0:08:160:08:20

No, I know she's got one definitely wrong, maybe two. I think the Queen was married in Westminster Abbey.

0:08:200:08:26

OK, the moment of truth. You need to have answered all four correctly to have won the round.

0:08:260:08:30

Let's see how many are correct.

0:08:300:08:32

-Wow!

-AUDIENCE: Oooh!

0:08:360:08:38

That's not even close, really, is it,

0:08:380:08:41

after a blistering first round.

0:08:410:08:43

That can be classed as a very average round. You failed to achieve perfection.

0:08:430:08:47

You've let the Usual Suspects into the game.

0:08:470:08:49

Usual Suspects, can you steal the round?

0:08:490:08:52

You need to change three answers.

0:08:520:08:54

Which one has she got right and which three are you going to change?

0:08:540:08:57

-D is definitely right.

-That's the one we're all confident on.

0:08:570:09:01

We're unanimous that D is definitely right,

0:09:010:09:05

-so we'd like to change A to false.

-A to false.

0:09:050:09:08

-B to true.

-B to true.

0:09:080:09:10

-And C to false.

-And C to false,

0:09:100:09:12

leaving Chris Martin

0:09:120:09:14

finding fame with Coldplay as true.

0:09:140:09:16

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

0:09:160:09:20

In 1900, 100 years later.

0:09:280:09:30

You're way out with that one.

0:09:300:09:32

Not only once, but twice.

0:09:370:09:39

55 BC and 54 BC.

0:09:390:09:42

It was Westminster Abbey, just as you thought.

0:09:480:09:51

So, you know where this is going.

0:09:510:09:54

Congratulations, Usual Suspects. You have achieved perfection.

0:09:590:10:03

APPLAUSE

0:10:030:10:05

Jessica, the Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed, and as a result, they've stolen the round.

0:10:050:10:10

You now have the opportunity to make Jessica's chances

0:10:100:10:13

of winning the prize fund of £1,000 that much harder.

0:10:130:10:17

Let's see the final board. Here it comes.

0:10:170:10:19

Two subjects already chosen by Jessica -

0:10:190:10:21

Spice Girls and Big Cats.

0:10:210:10:23

But because you won the round, you've earned the right to choose the next two categories.

0:10:230:10:27

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

0:10:270:10:30

I think maybe Wartime wouldn't be good for her,

0:10:300:10:34

or Composers.

0:10:340:10:36

That's quite good, cos I was going to say the same two.

0:10:360:10:39

Shall we go with that?

0:10:390:10:40

-Wartime.

-Wartime goes across.

0:10:400:10:42

And Composers, please, Nick.

0:10:420:10:45

And Composers. Thank you very much.

0:10:450:10:47

Usual Suspects, you have won the second round.

0:10:470:10:50

It's time to switch you off but we will see you in round three. There they go.

0:10:500:10:55

So, Jessica, with the Usual Suspects gone, what do you think of their choices?

0:10:550:10:59

-We said you didn't want Wartime.

-No.

-They worked that out.

0:10:590:11:01

You still have one more chance to find perfection and choose your own categories for the final.

0:11:010:11:06

-You ready to play the next round?

-Yes.

-Let's play round three.

0:11:060:11:09

APPLAUSE

0:11:090:11:11

Your 45 seconds starts now.

0:11:130:11:16

I should know this!

0:11:200:11:21

I'll say true.

0:11:210:11:23

I have a feeling I've heard that somewhere,

0:11:290:11:32

and I don't know if it's the 1960s,

0:11:320:11:34

but I'll say true.

0:11:340:11:36

Um... Cons...

0:11:410:11:44

Yeah, I'll say true.

0:11:440:11:45

-True?

-Yeah.

0:11:450:11:48

Um... I can't remember. I'll say false.

0:11:520:11:55

And with time to spare,

0:11:550:11:58

you've answered all four statements.

0:11:580:12:00

-What did you think of that round?

-It's all mostly guesses and I panicked at the end cos of the time.

0:12:000:12:05

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

0:12:050:12:09

These were the four statements.

0:12:090:12:11

Next to them are Jessica's answers.

0:12:110:12:15

Mike, has she achieved perfection?

0:12:150:12:17

I don't think she has.

0:12:170:12:19

I'm thinking maybe B and C are both false,

0:12:190:12:21

not true as she said.

0:12:210:12:24

-Aubrey, how's your former buddy, now enemy, done?

-I believe she's got perfection.

0:12:240:12:28

If I was answering those questions, they're the answers I'd give.

0:12:280:12:32

-A lot of love is there?

-Yeah.

-Having sat together so long!

0:12:320:12:35

At the moment of truth, you need to have answered all four statements perfectly to have won the round.

0:12:350:12:41

Let's see how many are correct.

0:12:410:12:43

AUDIENCE: Oooh!

0:12:470:12:49

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

0:12:490:12:51

You haven't managed the perfect round.

0:12:510:12:53

You've let your enemies,

0:12:530:12:55

the Usual Suspects, into the game.

0:12:550:12:57

Can you steal the round?

0:12:570:12:59

You can see Jessica's answers.

0:12:590:13:00

You only need to change one of them. Which one?

0:13:000:13:03

Constantia just doesn't sound South African to me,

0:13:030:13:06

and I do drink a fair bit!

0:13:060:13:07

LAUGHTER

0:13:070:13:09

That's the one I was little touchy about as well.

0:13:090:13:12

-It's the wrong programme to go looking for help on that one, Linda.

-LAUGHTER

0:13:120:13:16

We're agreed now, that because Linda likes a drink...

0:13:160:13:19

LAUGHTER

0:13:190:13:22

..we're going to change C from true to false.

0:13:220:13:24

Lovely. C changes from true to false,

0:13:240:13:27

leaving A, B and D as answered by Jessica.

0:13:270:13:30

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

0:13:300:13:33

Jessica thought that this was true.

0:13:440:13:46

Usual Suspects, you agreed.

0:13:460:13:49

As unlikely as it sounds, could it be true?

0:13:490:13:51

I can't believe you all went with that! It simply wasn't true.

0:13:550:14:00

Made up entirely.

0:14:000:14:02

So, unfortunately, Usual Suspects, you had the chance to steal

0:14:020:14:06

the round from Jessica, but you failed to achieve perfection.

0:14:060:14:09

Have you achieved perfection at home? Let's take a look.

0:14:090:14:12

Yeah, since the 18th and 19th centuries.

0:14:160:14:19

D, the blue Peter dog...

0:14:190:14:20

Golden retriever. So, let's see the final board.

0:14:250:14:29

Nobody won round three, so we have two blank spaces to be filled.

0:14:290:14:33

We'll take it in turns to choose a category.

0:14:330:14:37

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

0:14:370:14:41

I'll try UK Food.

0:14:410:14:43

UK Food goes in as the fifth.

0:14:430:14:46

Usual Suspects, choose a category you think will trouble Jessica.

0:14:460:14:49

-She's not sporty.

-No, she's not.

0:14:490:14:53

-We'll go with that, then.

-FA Cup, please, Nick.

0:14:530:14:55

FA Cup goes in.

0:14:550:14:58

We now know our six final categories. They are...

0:14:580:15:01

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

0:15:080:15:11

-Away they go. Does that look like a decent board?

-I'll have a go at it.

0:15:110:15:17

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

0:15:170:15:21

APPLAUSE

0:15:210:15:24

Jessica, this is the all-important final.

0:15:240:15:26

If you achieve perfection, you could be leaving with a prize fund of £1,000.

0:15:260:15:31

If not, you'll be leaving with nothing

0:15:310:15:33

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

0:15:330:15:38

Let's play the final round.

0:15:380:15:41

APPLAUSE

0:15:410:15:44

Here are your six final categories.

0:15:440:15:47

You must answer all six statements correctly

0:15:470:15:50

if you want to win the £1,000.

0:15:500:15:51

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

0:15:510:15:55

-your first answer is locked in. Ready?

-Yes.

0:15:550:15:57

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

0:15:570:16:02

Spice Girls.

0:16:020:16:04

I can't remember if it's Mel C.

0:16:090:16:12

I think Mel B has a child that has a strange name as well.

0:16:120:16:16

Oh, I think I'm going to say false.

0:16:160:16:18

I think it's another one.

0:16:180:16:20

-False.

-Yes.

-Thank you.

0:16:200:16:22

Big Cats.

0:16:220:16:24

I think it's just Asia.

0:16:300:16:33

-I'm going to say false.

-False.

-Yes.

0:16:330:16:38

Wartime, the first of the subjects

0:16:380:16:41

chosen by the Usual Suspects.

0:16:410:16:43

Wow, I have no idea!

0:16:480:16:49

It sounds like a good name, so I'm going to say true.

0:16:490:16:53

Composers.

0:16:550:16:57

I know the name, but I have no idea what he's done.

0:17:030:17:06

I'll say true.

0:17:060:17:09

I've said it, so true.

0:17:090:17:11

UK Food.

0:17:110:17:14

Laver bread is made from edible seaweed.

0:17:160:17:18

Yeah, I have a feeling that's true.

0:17:200:17:22

I don't know why.

0:17:220:17:23

True.

0:17:230:17:26

-Finally, the FA Cup.

-Yes!

0:17:260:17:28

Royal Engineers?

0:17:310:17:33

Um...

0:17:330:17:35

False.

0:17:350:17:38

Jessica, those answers are locked in.

0:17:380:17:42

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

0:17:420:17:45

-Which ones are you worried about?

-All of them.

0:17:450:17:47

-LAUGHTER

-There wasn't a single one?

-No.

0:17:470:17:50

That's a really rough board.

0:17:500:17:53

I'm hoping luck's on my side.

0:17:530:17:55

-Yeah.

-That is a tough board.

0:17:550:17:57

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

0:17:570:18:00

You can now see the final six statements.

0:18:000:18:03

Next to them are Jessica's answers.

0:18:030:18:07

Jessica, you can't change them by yourself.

0:18:070:18:09

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

0:18:090:18:14

This will come at a cost.

0:18:140:18:17

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

0:18:170:18:21

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

0:18:210:18:24

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

0:18:240:18:28

Who would you like to hear first?

0:18:280:18:30

I'll go for my good friend Aubrey.

0:18:300:18:32

Well done, Aubrey, how has she done?

0:18:320:18:35

-Jessica, I believe you're going to go home with £1,000.

-Hopefully.

0:18:350:18:39

I believe you've got perfection, well done.

0:18:390:18:42

-Is he telling the truth or bluffing?

-I think he's bluffing, but...

0:18:420:18:47

-I'll go down the line to Mike, please.

-If I'm honest, I'm not sure.

0:18:470:18:51

Two or three I would be iffy about, but I'm not really that confident,

0:18:510:18:55

-so I suggest you stay with what you've got.

-OK.

0:18:550:18:59

-And Linda?

-Hello.

0:18:590:19:01

I'm really sorry, but this isn't a very good board for me to give you advice on.

0:19:010:19:05

I'm only sure about one, so I'm really sorry about that.

0:19:050:19:10

Fair enough.

0:19:100:19:11

No-one coming down, no matter how much the £1,000 is offered.

0:19:110:19:16

Negotiations are over and they've decided you have to go it alone.

0:19:160:19:19

£1,000 at stake, six answers away, let's find out

0:19:190:19:23

if you have achieved perfection.

0:19:230:19:26

Starting at the top.

0:19:290:19:31

You thought this might be...

0:19:330:19:35

-Someone else. I know someone's child is that.

-You think it's Mel B.

0:19:350:19:40

Another Spice Girls, maybe. I don't know.

0:19:400:19:44

If you're right, this turns red and you're off to a flying start.

0:19:440:19:47

Is it true or false?

0:19:470:19:50

APPLAUSE

0:19:500:19:52

Bluebell Madonna is Geri's daughter. A good start, well done.

0:19:520:20:00

So, we move onto the next one.

0:20:000:20:02

-You said false because you thought they were only in...

-Asia, I think.

0:20:050:20:08

So, this needs to turn red. Is it true or false?

0:20:080:20:13

-Oh, no!

-It's true.

0:20:140:20:17

I'm sorry, you failed to achieve perfection.

0:20:170:20:19

It means you're going home with no money at all.

0:20:190:20:22

How are you doing at home? Are you still on for perfection?

0:20:220:20:26

-That's OK.

-Second World War tank, not First World War.

0:20:320:20:35

Johann Strauss the Younger was known as the Waltz King.

0:20:420:20:46

It is absolutely true. And finally...

0:20:530:20:55

It is true,

0:21:000:21:02

-but it was a very, very long time ago.

-Yeah.

0:21:020:21:05

1875 was when they last won it. So, there you go.

0:21:050:21:08

-You said from the start it wasn't looking like a great board for you.

-No.

0:21:080:21:13

You'd think on a 50/50 question, it should be easier to win.

0:21:130:21:16

-It's not, is it?

-No, it's very hard.

-Usual Suspects, that's good news for you.

0:21:160:21:20

The prize fund rolls over to the next game

0:21:200:21:23

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

0:21:230:21:27

That's what you were looking for. None of you wanted to help

0:21:270:21:29

-because you wanted to have a go at £2,000.

-No.

0:21:290:21:32

At least Linda's telling the truth! OK.

0:21:320:21:36

You failed to achieve perfection, which means

0:21:360:21:38

-you go home with nothing, but you enjoyed yourself?

-Yes, I have.

0:21:380:21:41

-It's been lovely having you. Ladies and gentlemen, Jessica!

-APPLAUSE

0:21:410:21:47

Right, it's now time to meet the next Usual Suspect

0:21:470:21:50

hoping to play Perfection today.

0:21:500:21:52

New Usual Suspect, please introduce yourself.

0:21:540:21:56

Hello, I'm Mina from London, and I'm a policy officer.

0:21:560:22:00

OK, best of luck to you all as we find out which one of you

0:22:000:22:03

has been randomly picked to play Perfection.

0:22:030:22:05

Mike! It's you who's been chosen. Please come and play Perfection.

0:22:100:22:14

-Welcome to the game.

-Thank you very much.

0:22:160:22:18

I understand that you've drawn up plans, as an architect,

0:22:180:22:21

to get married. See what I did there?

0:22:210:22:23

Yes, indeed I have.

0:22:230:22:24

Although I'm not the chief architect on that one.

0:22:240:22:27

-That's down to the other half.

-You don't want to interfere?

0:22:270:22:30

I've got my own ideas, but I'm being told to take a back seat.

0:22:300:22:34

Do you know, I think that probably is the best idea.

0:22:340:22:38

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

0:22:380:22:40

Briefly they were your team-mates. Now they're your enemies.

0:22:400:22:43

The good news - as nobody won the last game,

0:22:430:22:46

the prize fund currently stands at £2,000.

0:22:460:22:50

We got an idea where that money's going - to the wedding,

0:22:530:22:55

or have you got some other idea for it?

0:22:550:22:57

No, no, as boring as it sounds, anything that I can take away

0:22:570:23:00

will just adds bits and pieces to the wedding, I guess.

0:23:000:23:03

Usual Suspects, we're going to switch you off

0:23:030:23:06

so you can't see or hear anything,

0:23:060:23:08

but as soon as Mike makes a mistake, you'll be back in the game.

0:23:080:23:11

Cheerio. And away they go.

0:23:110:23:14

-You can talk through your answers without giving away any vital knowledge.

-OK.

0:23:140:23:18

-You ready?

-Yes.

-Then let's play Perfection.

0:23:180:23:21

Round one,

0:23:230:23:25

your 45 seconds starts now.

0:23:250:23:26

Yep, do a bit of DIY. That's definitely true.

0:23:310:23:33

True.

0:23:330:23:34

Ah, it's a name that I've heard of,

0:23:400:23:42

but whether it's a bird or another animal...

0:23:420:23:44

I will say true.

0:23:440:23:46

True.

0:23:460:23:47

That's not true, I don't believe. It's obviously a novel.

0:23:520:23:55

I don't think it's by Samuel Johnson.

0:23:550:23:57

I couldn't tell you who by. False.

0:23:570:23:59

False. And finally...

0:23:590:24:01

Did he become leader for a short time? Er...true.

0:24:050:24:09

True.

0:24:090:24:11

Just in before time. You've answered all four statements.

0:24:110:24:14

How do you feel?

0:24:140:24:15

D - I'm not sure. Did he take over temporary leadership?

0:24:150:24:19

-Bristletail is a guess, I must admit.

-Before we reveal how well you've done,

0:24:190:24:23

let's bring back the Usual Suspects.

0:24:230:24:25

-They can hear you.

-Sure.

0:24:250:24:27

So, these are the four statements.

0:24:270:24:29

And next to them are Mike's answers.

0:24:290:24:32

Aubrey, how do you think he's done?

0:24:320:24:34

He's not got perfection. D is definitely wrong.

0:24:340:24:37

-It's Ed Miliband.

-OK, Mike, the moment of truth.

0:24:370:24:40

You need to have answered all four statements perfectly

0:24:400:24:43

to have won the round. Let's find out how many you've got correct.

0:24:430:24:46

Not bad, but it's not good enough.

0:24:520:24:55

-Mike, you didn't manage perfection.

-Sure.

0:24:550:24:57

You let your enemies into the game.

0:24:570:24:59

Usual Suspects, you can see Mike's answers.

0:24:590:25:01

You need to change two of them,

0:25:010:25:04

-but which two?

-B and D.

0:25:040:25:05

Yes, it's definitely B and D.

0:25:050:25:07

Well, Nick, we're definitely

0:25:070:25:09

going to change B from true to false.

0:25:090:25:12

B from true to false.

0:25:120:25:13

And D from true to false.

0:25:130:25:15

And D from true to false.

0:25:150:25:18

OK, that leaves And C as originally answered by Mike.

0:25:180:25:21

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

0:25:210:25:23

Here's an interesting one.

0:25:300:25:32

Mike, you said true.

0:25:340:25:36

The Usual Suspects said false.

0:25:360:25:38

It's an insect.

0:25:420:25:44

It is false. It's Daniel Defoe.

0:25:500:25:52

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

0:25:520:25:56

Usual Suspects, you've achieved perfection.

0:26:030:26:06

APPLAUSE

0:26:060:26:08

Absolutely, it was Ed Miliband. So, Mike, this is your final board.

0:26:080:26:13

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

0:26:130:26:17

Here are your final round categories.

0:26:170:26:20

Cricket, Funny Men,

0:26:200:26:21

Flags, Scotland and Swedes,

0:26:210:26:24

with many more in-between.

0:26:240:26:25

Because the Usual Suspects stole the round,

0:26:250:26:28

they choose the two categories,

0:26:280:26:30

hoping to make the final harder to win.

0:26:300:26:32

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

0:26:320:26:35

I'm tempted to go with Hair, because he hasn't got any.

0:26:350:26:38

Thank you!

0:26:380:26:40

-Don't beat around the bush, Linda(!)

-Do you think he's a bit of a Trekkie?

0:26:400:26:44

-He may be, but I'll go with it.

-So, what are you going for?

0:26:440:26:49

-Star Trek, Nick.

-Star Trek.

0:26:490:26:52

And because he hasn't got much, Hair.

0:26:520:26:54

Hair. Thank you very much.

0:26:540:26:56

The gloves are off, certainly.

0:26:560:26:58

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

0:26:580:27:02

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

0:27:020:27:05

The Usual Suspects, what do you think of their choices?

0:27:050:27:08

-Are you a Trekkie?

-I'm not a Trekkie. No, that'll be a guess.

0:27:080:27:12

-And who knows with Hair?

-Ready for the next round?

-Yes.

0:27:120:27:16

Let's achieve perfection.

0:27:160:27:17

Then you choose your own categories. Let's play round two.

0:27:170:27:20

Your 45 seconds start now.

0:27:240:27:26

Yep, big fan of golf. He definitely is, that's true.

0:27:290:27:32

Um, I'm not 100% sure.

0:27:360:27:39

Obviously, she was, I believe, involved in France,

0:27:390:27:43

but she was probably married in. I'm going to say false.

0:27:430:27:46

Sadly, I know that one. That's definitely true.

0:27:510:27:53

Er...yes, I think it possibly does. I'm going to say true on that one.

0:27:590:28:05

True. And with just a little time to spare,

0:28:050:28:07

you've answered all four statements. You're managing your time well.

0:28:070:28:11

-Happy with that round?

-Reasonably, yeah. Fingers crosses.

0:28:110:28:14

Before we see how you've done,

0:28:140:28:15

it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

0:28:150:28:18

So, Usual Suspects, these are the four statements,

0:28:180:28:20

and next to them are Mike's answers.

0:28:200:28:23

Linda, how's he done?

0:28:230:28:25

I think he's got one wrong.

0:28:250:28:26

-I think the Rhine would flow in the other direction.

-Aubrey?

0:28:260:28:32

He's got two definitely right, A and C.

0:28:320:28:34

The other two I'm not sure about.

0:28:340:28:37

So, if he hasn't got perfection,

0:28:370:28:39

they're the two I'd be looking to change.

0:28:390:28:42

Mike, you need to have answered all four statements perfectly

0:28:420:28:45

to have won the round. Let's find out how many you've got correct.

0:28:450:28:48

Two!

0:28:530:28:54

Just two of the four. Not nearly good enough to achieve perfection.

0:28:540:28:58

You've now let your enemies into the game.

0:28:580:29:01

Usual Suspects, you can see Mike's answers.

0:29:010:29:04

You need to change two of them,

0:29:040:29:05

but which two?

0:29:050:29:07

Er, Nick, we'd like to change

0:29:070:29:12

B from false to true

0:29:120:29:13

and D from true to false

0:29:130:29:16

Leaving A and C as answered by Mike.

0:29:160:29:19

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

0:29:190:29:23

Mike said that was false, Usual Suspects changed it to true.

0:29:310:29:34

Is it true or false?

0:29:340:29:35

It is true.

0:29:390:29:41

Mike embarrassingly said he knew this to be true.

0:29:450:29:47

Usual Suspects, you agreed it was true. Is it true?

0:29:470:29:51

It is. Which means, once again, you know where this is going, everybody.

0:29:530:29:57

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved perfection.

0:30:010:30:04

It does, actually, flow into the North Sea.

0:30:060:30:09

Mike, the Usual Suspects succeeded where you failed. Let's see the final board.

0:30:090:30:13

Two subjects on there already, chosen by the Usual Suspects.

0:30:130:30:17

Because you won that round, you've earned the right to choose the next two categories.

0:30:170:30:21

-So, which two do you think are going to trip Mike up?

-Flags?

0:30:210:30:25

Flags, yeah? Yeah, we'll go Flags.

0:30:250:30:27

Is Swedes about the nationality or the vegetable?

0:30:270:30:30

Could be either, really, couldn't it? Um, Flags and Swedes?

0:30:300:30:33

Flags and Swedes.

0:30:330:30:35

Flags.

0:30:350:30:36

-Flags goes across.

-And Swedes, please.

0:30:360:30:39

Swedes becomes the fourth subject in the final.

0:30:390:30:43

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you've won both rounds.

0:30:430:30:46

It's time to switch you off, but we will see you in round three.

0:30:460:30:51

Away they go. Mike, with the Usual Suspects gone, Flags?

0:30:510:30:54

-Depends what it is, yeah.

-And Swedes.

0:30:540:30:57

Same question as Linda - if it's the vegetable then maybe not

0:30:570:31:00

but if it's the nationality, who knows, we'll see.

0:31:000:31:03

You still have the chance to choose two yourself.

0:31:030:31:06

-In order to do that, you have to achieve perfection in this final round.

-Sure.

0:31:060:31:09

-Ready to go?

-Yes.

-Good. Let's play round three.

0:31:090:31:13

APPLAUSE

0:31:130:31:17

Your 45 seconds starts now.

0:31:170:31:19

Absolutely no idea, er... Can't see any reason why... I'll say false.

0:31:240:31:29

Definitely an artist, I'm sure sculpture's in there so true.

0:31:340:31:39

I could see no reason why it would.

0:31:440:31:47

I don't think it's ever been part of the Commonwealth, I'll say false.

0:31:470:31:50

Er, yes, I'll say true on that one.

0:31:560:31:58

No reason why, just true.

0:31:580:32:01

OK, well, you answered all four statements.

0:32:020:32:05

Let's find out how you've done. Before that, it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

0:32:050:32:09

So, Usual Suspects, these are the four statements.

0:32:090:32:12

Next to them are Mike's answers.

0:32:120:32:14

So, Mina, how do you think he's done?

0:32:140:32:17

I don't think he's achieved perfection. I think B is incorrect.

0:32:170:32:21

I don't think Anish Kapoor is a sculptor.

0:32:210:32:23

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

0:32:230:32:27

Let's see how many you got correct.

0:32:270:32:28

One. Just the one out of four. Well, obviously not the perfect round.

0:32:320:32:37

-No.

-You've now let your enemies, the Usual Suspects, into the game.

0:32:370:32:42

Can you steal the round?

0:32:420:32:43

Which one has he got right?

0:32:430:32:46

I think D is correct.

0:32:460:32:48

This is very difficult.

0:32:480:32:50

Shall we say he's got D right and change the others?

0:32:500:32:52

-We're going to change A from false to true.

-Thank you.

0:32:520:32:57

-B from true to false.

-Right.

0:32:570:32:59

And C from false to true.

0:32:590:33:01

C from false to true,

0:33:010:33:03

leaving D true, as answered by Mike.

0:33:030:33:06

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

0:33:060:33:10

It is true.

0:33:160:33:18

It is true!

0:33:240:33:26

Oh, dear, Usual Suspects, you had the chance to steal

0:33:260:33:30

the round from Mike but you failed to achieve perfection.

0:33:300:33:32

Are you still on for perfection at home? Let's run through the rest of the answers and find out, shall we?

0:33:320:33:36

It is true. It was discovered by Captain Cook.

0:33:420:33:45

It's false, what about the red deer? Yes, see, now you think about it...

0:33:510:33:54

So, let's have a look at the board.

0:33:540:33:56

Four subjects chosen by the Usual Suspects, nobody managed

0:33:560:34:00

to win round three, meaning we have two blank spaces still to be filled.

0:34:000:34:04

To do that, you will take it in turns to choose a category.

0:34:040:34:07

As the single player you get to choose first.

0:34:070:34:09

My one choice! I'll go for Royal Houses, please.

0:34:090:34:13

Royal Houses goes across.

0:34:130:34:15

OK, so Usual Suspects,

0:34:150:34:16

please choose a category you think will trip him up.

0:34:160:34:19

Do you think he'll know much about London?

0:34:190:34:22

Probably not, no. Or novels.

0:34:220:34:24

Whichever.

0:34:240:34:27

Because Mina said it first, we're going to go for London, please.

0:34:270:34:32

London goes in as the final subject.

0:34:320:34:34

We now know our final six categories. They are...

0:34:340:34:37

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

0:34:420:34:45

And away they go. What do you think?

0:34:450:34:47

It's difficult to choose.

0:34:470:34:48

You never know what the questions are going to be.

0:34:480:34:51

The only one I wouldn't have picked is Star Trek, I guess.

0:34:510:34:55

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

0:34:550:35:00

APPLAUSE

0:35:000:35:03

Mike, this is the all-important final.

0:35:030:35:05

If you can achieve perfection,

0:35:050:35:06

you could be leaving with a prize fund of £2,000.

0:35:060:35:10

If you fail, you'll be leaving with nothing, which is great news for the Usual Suspects

0:35:100:35:14

as one of them could be playing for a rollover of £3,000 in the next game.

0:35:140:35:19

-And you don't want that, do you?

-Nope.

-OK, let's play the final round.

0:35:190:35:23

APPLAUSE

0:35:230:35:26

Mike, here are your final six categories.

0:35:260:35:28

You must answer all six statements correctly

0:35:280:35:31

if you want to win the £2,000.

0:35:310:35:32

Think carefully, there's no time limit,

0:35:320:35:35

but once you've given your first answer, it's locked in.

0:35:350:35:39

Let's reveal your first statement. Tell me if you believe it

0:35:390:35:41

to be true or false?

0:35:410:35:43

-The one you dreaded.

-Yes.

-Star Trek.

0:35:430:35:47

Mr Spock's mother was human.

0:35:490:35:51

That sounds vaguely familiar.

0:35:510:35:54

I'm going to say true on that one.

0:35:540:35:57

Again, it's a familiar-sounding word.

0:36:040:36:06

So, it could well be...

0:36:060:36:09

I'm going to say true again. Yes. True.

0:36:090:36:13

It's definitely green, whether there's any red on it.

0:36:200:36:25

Um, Morocco. Think, think, think.

0:36:250:36:28

I know that part of the world quite well...

0:36:280:36:30

Um...

0:36:300:36:31

It's an Islamic country, which is the great... Yes.

0:36:310:36:34

I'm going to say true again.

0:36:340:36:37

Marcus Schenkenberg is a Swedish footballer.

0:36:420:36:43

Never heard of him. I like my football.

0:36:430:36:46

If he is a footballer, it sounds Swedish.

0:36:460:36:50

Um...

0:36:500:36:51

That might be a bit of a false...

0:36:510:36:55

I'll say...

0:36:550:36:56

false for that one, just as a hunch.

0:36:560:37:00

Now the one you chose for yourself.

0:37:000:37:02

Royal Houses.

0:37:020:37:06

Er...

0:37:080:37:10

Queen Anne.

0:37:100:37:12

That's...shouting true to me, I think.

0:37:120:37:17

I'm laughing. The practice that I work for are the architects

0:37:260:37:30

on the National Gallery and it is indeed in Trafalgar Square.

0:37:300:37:33

-The dice has fallen very well for you!

-Yes.

0:37:330:37:36

All right, well, Mike, you answered all of the questions

0:37:360:37:39

and those answers are now locked in.

0:37:390:37:42

-If there is one single mistake, you leave with nothing.

-Yeah. Yeah.

0:37:420:37:45

-Which ones are you unsure of?

-B, but it does sound familiar.

0:37:450:37:50

I'm not sure about the Moroccan flag.

0:37:500:37:51

I've got a feeling there's either white or red on there, possibly.

0:37:510:37:55

But one of them in the region is all green.

0:37:550:37:58

Is it Libya, Morocco, Tunisia?

0:37:580:38:00

They're all very similar, I'm not sure.

0:38:000:38:02

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

0:38:020:38:05

-and see what they've got to say.

-Sure.

0:38:050:38:07

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements

0:38:070:38:11

and next to them are Mike's answers.

0:38:110:38:13

Mike, your answers are locked in, you can't change them

0:38:130:38:15

by yourself, but if you think you've made a mistake,

0:38:150:38:18

you can unlock them with the help of the Usual Suspects. This will, however, come at a cost.

0:38:180:38:23

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

0:38:230:38:27

Who would you like to hear from first?

0:38:270:38:29

Let's start left to right. Mina?

0:38:290:38:31

Well done, I think you've got quite a lot there, correct.

0:38:310:38:34

Um, but there's a couple I'm not sure of.

0:38:340:38:39

I don't think I'll be able to help you any further on this, I'm afraid.

0:38:390:38:42

-All right.

-Fair enough, thank you. Linda?

0:38:420:38:46

Well, I think you've got one wrong.

0:38:460:38:48

-Right.

-I'm not confident in coming down to help you

0:38:480:38:51

so I'm afraid you're on your own.

0:38:510:38:53

-Thanks kindly.

-Not confident or there's not enough money on the go?

0:38:530:38:56

Whatever!

0:38:560:38:58

-Be honest!

-Whatever!

0:38:580:39:02

Aubrey, what do you think?

0:39:020:39:03

Er, I'm only sure of one question,

0:39:030:39:06

Mike, and I couldn't help you.

0:39:060:39:09

-Right. Well, they've decided not to come down, which means you've got to go it alone.

-Yep.

0:39:090:39:14

£2,000 at stake, six answers away.

0:39:140:39:17

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

0:39:170:39:20

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

0:39:230:39:27

Right, Mr Spock's mother was human.

0:39:270:39:30

When you got Star Trek, you didn't fancy this one at all.

0:39:300:39:33

Not for me, that one, no.

0:39:330:39:34

However, you said you thought it rang a bell and you said true.

0:39:340:39:39

We need it to turn green to get you off to a flying start.

0:39:390:39:43

Is it true or false?

0:39:430:39:45

It is true, well done.

0:39:450:39:47

APPLAUSE

0:39:470:39:48

Now, B and C, you said were the ones you were really worried about

0:39:480:39:53

so let's skip over those and go onto D.

0:39:530:39:55

Marcus Schenkenberg is a Swedish footballer.

0:39:550:39:57

We need this to turn red

0:39:570:40:00

for you to continue towards the money.

0:40:000:40:03

Is it true or false?

0:40:030:40:05

APPLAUSE

0:40:050:40:07

He is in fact a Swedish model.

0:40:070:40:10

-Right.

-Queen Anne was the last Stuart monarch.

0:40:100:40:13

You said you thought that was true.

0:40:130:40:17

If it turns green, you are halfway to the money.

0:40:170:40:20

Is it true or false?

0:40:210:40:23

-APPLAUSE

-It is true.

0:40:250:40:28

-Three out of three and halfway.

-Mm.

0:40:280:40:30

F, this should be fairly straightforward,

0:40:300:40:33

the company you work for actually looks after the National Gallery

0:40:330:40:36

so you should know where it is.

0:40:360:40:38

Hopefully. I'll be banned from work, I think, if I get this wrong.

0:40:380:40:40

You said true, we're expecting this to turn green,

0:40:400:40:44

is it true or false?

0:40:440:40:47

It is true, you're right.

0:40:470:40:48

APPLAUSE

0:40:480:40:51

-So, four out of six.

-Mmm. Better than the rounds, isn't it?

0:40:510:40:55

£2,000 on offer and you're now just two questions away from it.

0:40:550:41:00

That would be very handy coming up to a wedding and a honeymoon,

0:41:000:41:03

-wouldn't it?

-Indeed.

-OK, let's get back to the original ones, then.

0:41:030:41:07

B and C, these were the ones that you said worried you.

0:41:070:41:10

Now, you said this rings a bell, so you went for true.

0:41:130:41:17

Could it be a type of moustache?

0:41:180:41:20

Is it true or false, we need this to turn green.

0:41:200:41:22

It is true!

0:41:260:41:28

APPLAUSE

0:41:280:41:30

The Usual Suspects didn't want to come down and help.

0:41:300:41:33

Have you pulled this off all on your own?

0:41:330:41:36

We're back now to C, the one that you uhmed and ahed about.

0:41:360:41:40

In the end, you decided to plump for true.

0:41:440:41:47

You're one question away from £2,000. It all rests on this answer.

0:41:470:41:53

If you're right, this will turn green

0:41:530:41:55

and you're walking out of here with £2,000 all on your own

0:41:550:41:58

and you've beaten the Usual Suspects.

0:41:580:42:01

If you're wrong, it will turn red and you go home with nothing

0:42:010:42:05

and that £2,000 rolls over for the Usual Suspects

0:42:050:42:08

and becomes £3,000 in the next game.

0:42:080:42:11

It's all or nothing on this one question.

0:42:110:42:14

Will it turn green now to prove that it's true

0:42:170:42:20

and that you've won the money?

0:42:200:42:22

Is it true or false, for £2,000?

0:42:220:42:25

It's false!

0:42:290:42:31

AUDIENCE GROAN

0:42:310:42:32

It's a green star on what colour background?

0:42:320:42:37

-Red was my guess.

-Red.

0:42:370:42:40

My word, you couldn't have got much closer.

0:42:400:42:42

You identified it very early on as the one that could have gone either or.

0:42:420:42:46

On a 50/50 chance, you plumped the wrong way.

0:42:460:42:48

-As a result, I'm afraid you failed to achieve perfection.

-Yeah.

0:42:480:42:52

However, good news for you, Usual Suspects, the prize fund

0:42:520:42:56

rolls over to the next game, where one of you could be playing for £3,000.

0:42:560:43:02

-APPLAUSE

-They're looking pleased

0:43:020:43:04

but I think for a minute there, they thought you'd taken the cash away.

0:43:040:43:07

-Yeah.

-I'm afraid, Mike, you failed to achieve perfection, which means

0:43:070:43:11

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

0:43:110:43:14

-You played a good game and got really close.

-Thank you.

-Ladies and gentlemen, Mike.

0:43:140:43:18

APPLAUSE

0:43:180:43:21

Well, that's all we have time for. Please join us next time

0:43:210:43:25

when our Usual Suspects have the chance to play again, this time for £3,000.

0:43:250:43:29

But remember, on this show, close isn't good enough.

0:43:290:43:33

We only pay for perfection. Goodbye.
