Episode 14 Perfection

Welcome to the show that demands nothing less than perfection.

Behind this screen are four contestants who hope

their knowledge is flawless,

because one single mistake could give the game away.

This is Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Hello and welcome to Perfection,

the quiz show were only perfect play is good enough.

Behind me are the contestants.

We call them the Usual Suspects, and 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.

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

For example, if I said...

..would you say that's true or false?

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

Answering true or false might seem easy, but if the contestant

gets a single answer wrong, their opponents, the Usual Suspects,

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

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

Hello, my name is Andrew. I'm from Alkrington in Kent.

I'm a hotel manager by trade, and this is my first game.

Hi, I'm James, from Sunniside, Tyne and Wear.

I'm a business intelligence developer, and it's my second game.

Hello, my name is Chris. I'm from Sittingbourne.

I run a domestic cleaning company, and this is my third game.

Hi, I'm Madeleine.

I'm retired, I live in Kington, and this is my fourth game.

Good luck to all of you, as we now find out which one of you has been

randomly picked to play Perfection.

Chris, it's you. Please come and join us and play Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Chris, welcome to the game. Are you looking forward to playing?

-I really am.

-Chris, it's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

They were your team-mates, now they are your enemies.

Their job is to stop you winning the prize fund, because, of course,

your failure means the prize money rolls over to the next game,

where one of them could be sitting here playing for a bigger total.

Look at their expression. That's what they want. They want to fail!

They want the cash themselves. Every game on Perfection is worth £1,000.

Here's the good news - nobody has won the last eight games,

so the price fund currently stands at £9,000.

APPLAUSE

-That's a lot of cash.

-It's a very lot of money, yes.

-Yeah.

What will you spend it on when you walk out of here in a few minutes?

I would love to take my grandchildren on a safari.

-That would be great, wouldn't it?

-It'd be wonderful.

Good luck with that,

and we hope you win some money and you can carry that dream out.

Here's how the game works. You'll play three rounds and a final.

Every round you achieve Perfection makes the final easier for you,

but if your performance is anything less than perfect,

the Usual Suspects have a chance to step in and steal the round,

making the final that much harder for you.

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

so you can't see or hear anything.

Each round consists of four true or false statements.

You'll be answering against the clock.

You'll get 45 seconds, and once you give an answer,

your first answer, it'll be locked in.

Right. Let's play Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Round 1. Your 45 seconds starts now.

Is that true or false?

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False.

-False. I think it's a person.

-False.

And, with plenty of time to spare...

-False.

-False.

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

-How did that feel?

-Not too bad.

-Anything you're worried about?

-D.

-D.

OK. Before we reveal exactly how well you've done, time for us

to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So, Usual Suspects, these were the four statements

and next to them are Chris's answers.

-Madeleine, has she achieved Perfection?

-I'm not quite sure.

D is one that I'm not sure of.

OK. Andrew, what do you make of it?

I'm also in a quandary, I think, about question D.

And I'm also querying about Prince Harry running the London Marathon.

All right. Chris, the moment of truth.

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

-Let's see how many are correct.

-Right.

Two out of four.

Certainly not Perfection, and as a result, you've opened the door

to the Usual Suspects so that they can step into the game.

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

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

-We all had doubts about D, didn't we?

-Yeah.

-So that's one.

I think A, to change as well.

-OK, captain.

-Right.

-Yeah.

We'll change A from true to false, please.

A from true to false.

And D from false to true.

And D from false to true, leaving B and C as answered by Chris.

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

It's false. Very well done, Madeleine.

He didn't run it in 2012, but Princess Beatrice ran it in 2010.

-It's true.

-GROANING

There are over 15,000 airports in the USA.

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

but you failed to achieve Perfection.

Let's have a look at the rest of the statements and answers

in case you at home have managed to achieve Perfection.

It's false.

One or two people might have wanted to turn him into one over the years,

but no, he is in fact a former Lib Dem MP.

That's false. Rob Grant and Doug Naylor wrote Red Dwarf.

Douglas Adams, of course, wrote Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy.

Usual Suspects, had you achieved Perfection,

you'd have had the opportunity to make Chris's chances

of winning the prize fund much harder in the final.

And here's how.

Chris, appearing before you is your final board.

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

Here are the final round categories appearing,

starting with Comics, going through Tigers, Grease,

Dogs On Film through to The Internet and many more in-between.

Because neither side won the round, the two categories that were due

to be chosen will now be carried over to the next round,

meaning four categories will be on offer next time.

Usual Suspects, time to switch you off.

We'll see if you get a look in in Round 2. And away they go.

Now that they've gone, let's have a talk about the categories up there.

-Which ones would like to avoid?

-The Internet and Top Of The Pops.

Well, the way to do that, of course, is to achieve Perfection

in the next round, and then you get to choose your own category.

Especially as there is going to be four on offer.

-Let's play Round 2, then.

-APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-False.

-False.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False. And finally...

Not sure on that, but I'm going to say true... No, false.

You have to take true. You managed to get true out.

-I'm going to have to accept true.

-Yeah.

Sorry about that, but as I said at the beginning,

I have to take your first answer.

And you got enough true out, that I had to take it, I'm afraid.

Didn't give you the chance to change.

-That didn't feel like a great round for you.

-No.

-No.

Before we reveal exactly how well you've done,

it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So, Usual Suspects, these were the four statements,

and next to them are Chris's answers.

Andrew, has she achieved Perfection?

There's certainly one I know that's definitely wrong, which is C.

C, you think, is wrong. Madeleine?

I'm not sure of a couple.

A and D are the two I'm not sure about.

A and D you're worried about. OK, Chris, the moment of truth.

Let's find out many you got correct.

One out of four.

-Not great, but then you had an idea...

-I'm not surprised.

-Yeah, you kind of felt that, didn't you?

-I did.

OK, Chris, you failed to achieve Perfection,

which means your enemies, the Usual Suspects, are into the game.

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

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

-Know anything about Harry Potter?

-Issey Miyake is definitely...

They make perfumes and what have you,

so I think that probably is a Japanese fashion designer.

I think Stonehenge is a UNESCO site.

Keep D and change A, C and D, is it?

-Nick, we'll change A from false to true.

-A, change from false to true.

-C from false to true.

-C from false to true.

And D from true to false.

D from true to false, leaving B as answered by Chris.

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

It's true. Andrew, can I just say,

what an amazing interest you have in fashion there.

-I like to smell nice.

-You smell nice, is that what it is?

LAUGHTER

It is true, so you've got a good idea where this is going now,

don't you, Usual Suspects?

That's true.

It is false.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Chess was written by Tim Rice and Bjorn and Benny from Abba.

Usual Suspects, you now have the opportunity

to make Chris's chances of winning the prize fund of £9,000 much harder.

Let's see the final board.

Well, no subject categories chosen so far,

because two categories were carried over from the last round.

Because you won the round, you've earned the right to choose

four categories to add to the board.

Two from this round, and two that rolled over from Round 1.

So which four would you like Chris to play in the final?

-We'll choose one each and decide on the fourth one.

-THEY AGREE

-I think the Internet.

-The Internet goes in. OK.

-And I'll choose Comics.

-Comics goes across.

Grease.

Grease becomes the third category and we need one more.

-It's got to be something like Top Of The Pops.

-THEY AGREE

Top Of The Pops, please.

And Top Of The Pops goes in.

Thank you very much. Congratulations, Usual Suspects.

You have won the second round, it's time to switch you off

and we'll see you in Round 3.

With unnerving accuracy they went straight for the two -

-Top Of The Pops and the Internet, that you really didn't want.

-Yes.

-How about the other two. Comics?

-The thing is,

it just depends what question comes up.

I know a little bit and it might just be the right question,

or it could be the lot that I don't know.

Well, I tell you what, the way to make sure you get something in the final you like

is to win this third round by achieving Perfection.

-I'll try.

-Let's have a go, shall we?

-Right.

-Let's play Round 3.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False.

-True.

-True.

And finally...

-True.

-True. And with loads of time to spare,

you answered all four statements. That sounded better.

-You sounded more confident.

-Yeah, I felt a bit better.

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

those Usual Suspects. So, Usual Suspects,

these are the statements and next to them are Chris's answers.

-James, how has she done this time?

-Quite good. I'm not too sure about oysters and Kent,

but I think she's done really well.

Andrew, can you find anything wrong with that round?

The only question I'd have is on B, about Wilkie Collins.

-The others, I think she's done really well.

-OK.

It's the moment of truth. How many have you actually got correct?

Ah! Three out of four. Almost.

And, as a result, the Usual Suspects are in again.

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

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

-Are we happy with A,

Edinburgh's Royal Mile, four miles long?

-It sounds as if it might be right.

-Yes? Wilkie Collins?

-It'll have to be B, won't it?

-I'm game for that, yes.

-Yes. Right.

We'd like to change B, please, from false to true.

B changes from false to true

leaving A, C and D as answered by Chris.

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

Edinburgh's Royal Mile is actually four miles long,

is that true or false?

It's false.

You've blown it straight away. It's approximately one mile.

-Oddly enough(!)

-LAUGHTER

The clue's actually in the name.

Let's see the rest to see whether you can still achieve Perfection at home.

Wilkie Collins was a 19th-century highwayman. Is that true or false?

That's false. He was a writer.

Water polo is an Olympic sport, is that true or false?

It is of course true.

And Whitstable in Kent is renowned for its oysters,

is that true or false?

Is absolutely true.

They have a huge oyster festival there,

world-renowned for its oysters.

So, Usual Suspects, had you achieved Perfection,

you would have had the opportunity to make Chris's chances of winning the prize fund harder.

But you didn't. Sorry to rub it in. Let's have a look at the board.

Here it is. Four subject categories already chosen.

We have to blank spaces to be filled, how are we going to do it?

Well, you're going to take it in turns to choose a category.

Chris, as the single player, you go first.

What would you like to choose

-to go into the final?

-Canada, I think.

Canada goes in.

Usual Suspects,

one subject category from you.

Go for Weapons?

-I'm happy with Weapons, yes.

-Weapons, please, Nick.

Weapons goes into the final.

We now know our six final categories.

They are...

Usual Suspects, it is time to switch off for the final time. And away they go.

You only got to choose one subject category for the final.

The other five were chosen by the Usual Suspects. You chose Canada.

-So you know a bit about Canada?

-A little bit, yes.

Chris, for £9,000, it's time to play the final.

APPLAUSE

Chris, this is the all-important final.

If you can achieve Perfection, you could leave with a prize of £9,000.

-That would be nice, wouldn't it?

-It would be fantastic.

However, if you fail, you will be leaving with nothing, which will be good news for the Usual Suspects

as one of them could be playing for a roll over of £10,000

on the next game.

So let's play the final round.

APPLAUSE

Chris, here are your final six categories and they are....

You must answer all six statements correctly

if you want to win the £9,000. Think carefully. There's no time limit,

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

-Right.

-Are you ready?

-I am, Nick.

-Then let's reveal your first statement.

True.

True.

-True.

-True.

-True.

-True.

Top Of The Pops.

-False.

-False.

Canada.

-True.

-True.

And, finally, Weapons.

I think it's a type of rifle.

-So you're saying?

-False.

-False.

And with that, all your answers are locked in.

-What are you worried about there?

-A. Not 100%.

-Worried about A.

You said you didn't know anything about computers.

You didn't want that one. Are you feeling good about the rest?

I think so, yes.

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

Right.

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements

and next to them are Chris's answers.

Chris, your answers are now locked in.

You can't change them yourself,

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.

Usual Suspects, I'm now going to ask you to tell me

how well you think Chris has done, if you want to help and, if you do,

how much it is going to cost her.

Chris, who would you like to hear from first?

Madeleine, please.

-Not too sure of a couple, Chris, so I think I'll rule myself out.

-OK.

-Andrew?

-There are certainly one and a half questions

that I'm not too sure on.

I'm not confident enough to know definitely,

-so I'll rule myself out.

-Right. OK.

-James?

-There's one question I would question,

but it would be expensive.

£6,000.

£6,000 of your £9,000 prize fund.

He would like to come down and join in.

I wouldn't give you 6,000. I'll go five.

Five?

HE LAUGHS

-Five. OK, then.

-Is it a deal? Everybody?

-It's a deal.

OK, James, for £5,000 of the £9,000 prize fund,

please come down and join us.

APPLAUSE

Chris, you've asked James for help.

If you achieve Perfection, it will cost you £5,000

of your potential prize fund of £9,000.

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

This is your only shot at winning Perfection.

Have you made the right decision? We're about to find out.

Here are the final-round statements.

James, which answers do you want Chris to change?

The one I was really questioning was B, about the alter ego of Wonder Woman.

I wasn't sure about that at all.

-Now I've looked again, how confident are you on D?

-On D?

-Yes.

-I think D is right.

-D's right?

-I think so.

I'm definitely happy with all of the rest. It's just B.

Do you think it's false?

I can remember watching Wonder Woman, the series,

and I don't recognise the name Mary Jane Watson from that.

Remember, it is still your decision, you don't have to listen to James.

-No.

-So would you like to make any changes?

Keeping?

-I'll keep them.

-All of them?

-Yes, please.

OK, so they are now locked in. £9,000 at stake,

£4,000 to Chris, £5,000 to James.

No changes made. Six answers away.

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

Just before we start, I want to pop over to Andrew.

What was the one you thought was wrong, Andrew?

Er, the one I thought was wrong outright was B, Mary Jane Watson.

-So that makes that one extra interesting, doesn't it?

-Oh, yes.

-Shall we start at the bottom and go up towards it?

-Go on then.

-Why not?

So a blunderbuss is a type of sword. Is that true or false?

It is false.

Very good.

APPLAUSE

It is a firearm.

The population of Canada is over 20 million.

The interesting thing is this is the only subject

you chose for yourself. You said that was true.

Is it true or false?

It's true.

APPLAUSE

34 million, in fact.

So two out of two, a third of the way towards the cash.

Cliff Richard was the first act on Top Of The Pops.

You had a discussion about this.

Chris, you stood your ground and said you thing it is false,

it was somebody else.

You need this to turn red to get you halfway towards the money.

Is it true or is it false?

It's false. Well played.

APPLAUSE

-Rolling Stones were first up on Top Of The Pops.

-Oh!

In the musical Grease, Danny's surname is Zuko.

Do you like the musical?

-Yes.

-So you've seen it a few times?

-Yes.

So you have no doubt I'm about to say "true". Is that right?

-I hope so.

-OK.

You said "true". Is it true or false?

Well, well, well.

APPLAUSE

Now we get to the one we're interested in.

Mary Jane Watson is the alter ego of Wonder Woman.

Chris, you said that was true. James got you to consider that again.

He wasn't 100%, he said maybe you should change that,

because maybe that is wrong.

You stuck to your guns and decided it was still true.

If it turns red, you should have listened to James's advice

and the money is gone.

So Mary Jane Watson is the alter ego of Wonder Woman.

Is that true or is it false?

It is false.

AUDIENCE GROAN

-She's a character in Spider-Man comics.

-Ah!

-Oh!

Andrew, your hunch was right, as well. Here's the big question -

you did not discuss the last one.

So would you have gone home with the £9,000 between you

if you'd have listened to James?

OK, Google is named after one of the moons of Mars,

is that true, or is it false?

-It's false.

-False, anyway, yeah.

Its a misspelling of "googol", which is a very large number.

And so, therefore, being false,

it wouldn't have made any difference, anyway,

because even if you had changed the one that James wanted you

to change, you still would have lost on the last one, anyway.

So Usual Suspects, that's great news for you.

The prize fund rolls over to the next game where one of you could be playing for a total of -

listen to this - £10,000.

APPLAUSE

That's a huge lump of cash. All right, Chris and James,

I'm afraid you failed to achieve Perfection, which means you go home with nothing.

But I hope you enjoyed playing along the way.

I've had a fantastic time playing.

That's great. Thank you very much.

-I hope you enjoyed playing, James?

-Certainly, yes.

James and Chris, ladies and gentlemen.

APPLAUSE

Now time to meet the next Usual Suspects hoping to play Perfection today.

New Usual Suspects, please introduce yourselves.

Hi, I'm Kassa, I'm from London and I'm a student.

Hi, my name is Phil, I'm from Stockport

and I'm a product specialist.

Good luck to you and to the rest of you as we now find out which one of you

has been randomly picked to play Perfection.

Madeleine, it's you that's been chosen.

Please come and play Perfection.

-Madeleine, welcome to the show.

-Thank you.

Do you fancy the idea of walking off with £10,000?

-Yes, very much.

-You timed it well to come down and actually win the £10,000.

-The question is now...

-Can I?

-Can you? Exactly right.

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

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

Here's the good news. As nobody's won the last nine games,

the prize fund currently stands, as I say, at £10,000.

APPLAUSE

Have you got a few ideas how to spend that?

-I'm sure the grandchildren will.

-Good luck with that.

Three rounds to come. Usual Suspects, we'll switch you off,

so you can't see or hear, but as soon as Madeleine makes a mistake,

you'll be back in the game. And away they go.

-Are you ready to play?

-Yes.

-Then let's play Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Madeleine, Round 1, your 45 second starts now.

True or false?

-True.

-True.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False. And finally...

-False.

-False.

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

-Happy with that?

-Yes, I think so.

-Could have been easier?

-Yes!

Before we reveal how well you've done,

it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects. Remember they'll hear what you're saying.

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

Andrew, how has she done?

I don't believe she's got Perfection.

Andre Villas-Boas, he's Portuguese to start with.

-And he's a football manager.

-Interesting. Phil?

-I agree. He's a football manager.

Alfred Nobel invented dynamite, I think,

so I don't think he was killed in an explosion

and I'm not sure whether B is Cancer or Capricorn.

All right, Madeleine, the moment of truth.

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

Let's see how many are correct.

Three out of four are correct.

It's not Perfection, but it's not bad, given but the Usual Suspects were saying.

However, you have let them into the game.

Can you steal the round? You can see Madeleine's answers, you need to change one.

-Do you think we are all agreed?

-I think we agree.

-A?

Right, Nick, we'd like to change A from true to false.

A changes from true to false,

leaving B, C and D as answered by Madeleine.

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

Andre Villas-Boas is a leading Spanish opera singer, is that true or false?

It is false. He is Portuguese and he is a football manager.

Very well done, Usual Suspects.

You know where the rest of this is going. You can smile, because you know you've won already.

The Tropic of Cancer is north of the Equator - true or false?

Yes, that's true.

Alfred Nobel was killed in an explosion, is that true or false?

That's false, although, interestingly,

his brother was actually killed in an explosion.

But Alfred Nobel died of natural causes

and you're right, they were involved with explosives.

Madonna invented the fitness system Pilates. Is that true or false?

It is false. Congratulations, Usual Suspects,

you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Pilates was developed by Joseph Pilates and quite a long time ago.

Usual Suspects, you now have the opportunity to make

Madeleine's chances of winning the prize fund much harder in the final.

And here's how. Madeleine, take a look in front of you.

This is your final board.

The six spaces need to be filled with subject categories.

Here are your final-round categories appearing...

Because the Usual Suspects stole the round,

they get to choose two categories, hoping to make the final much more difficult for you.

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

-What do you think? Football?

-Yeah.

-Football, I think.

-PHIL:

-Boy bands?

-And Boy Bands.

-We'd like Boy Bands.

-Boy Bands goes across.

-And Football, please.

And Football goes across. Thank you very much.

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

Time to switch you off, but we will see you in Round 2.

-And away they go. Do you like your boy bands?

-I might be lucky.

-Do you follow football much?

-I know a bit about it.

OK, so looking at the list on the left,

which ones would you desperately like to avoid?

-Economics and Cloning - I don't like the look of those two.

-OK.

You have two more rounds to find Perfection

and choose your own categories for the final.

So if you're ready, let's play Round 2.

APPLAUSE

Madeleine, your 45 seconds starts now.

-True.

-True.

-I know it's celebrated at some time, but I don't know. False.

-False.

-False.

-False. And finally...

-False.

-False.

You had a bit of time to spare, but you didn't need it because

-you've answered all four statements. Was that better?

-Not really. LAUGHTER

-Having a bit of a rough time, at the moment?

-Yes.

Before we decide how many you've got correct,

let's bring back the Usual Suspects.

Hello, Usual Suspects, these were the four statements

and next to them are Madeleine's answers.

Kassa, how has she done this time?

I agree with three, I'm not sure about A.

A, you think that might be false?

Andrew?

I'm not too sure about B, because I don't know

when World Smile Day is, but I think she might have got Perfection.

OK, Madeleine, the moment of truth. Let's find out how many you got correct.

Three out of four. Close, but as they say, no cigar.

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

Usual Suspects, can you steal the round?

You've seen Madeleine's answers. Once again, you need to change just one, but which one?

Definitely not the bottom two. I'd change B.

OK, Nick, can we change B from false to true, please?

Yes, B changes from false to true, leaving A, C and D as answered by Madeleine.

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

David Cameron first became an MP in 2001 - is that true or false?

It's true.

World Smile Day is celebrated every October - is that true or false?

It's true and you know where this is going, don't you?

Christina Aguilera is a Colombian singer - true or false?

That's false. She's American.

And Albert Einstein invented the Post-it note -

is that true or false?

It's false, congratulations,

Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Can we clear up the Albert Einstein thing? He had no association with Post-it notes as far as we know.

-They weren't invented till the 1970s.

-No!

Let's see the final board.

Already two categories chosen to go into the final by the Usual Suspects.

Because you won that round, you have chance to choose two more.

-Which two do you fancy?

-Anything jump out at you guys?

-PHIL:

-What about War Films?

-We'll try War Films, please, Nick.

-War films goes across. And one more.

-Radio Stations?

-And Radio Stations, please.

-And Radio Stations.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, two out of two so far, very well played.

We'll see you in Round 3. And away they go.

-They keep nicking it off you, don't they?

-Not good, is it?

-You're being hard on yourself.

-Three in the first round, three in the second round, you're not that far off each time.

-No.

OK, you still have one more chance to find Perfection.

Let's play Round 3.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False.

-True.

-True. And finally...

-False.

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

-Now that felt good.

-It felt a bit better, that one did, yes.

-I can see that.

-Yes.

-Do you think you've done it this time round?

-I hope so.

-Before you find out exactly how well you've done,

it's time for us to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So Usual Suspects, these are the four statements

and next to them are Madeleine's answers.

-Kassa, has she achieved Perfection?

-No.

-What's she got wrong?

-C, I'm questioning.

-You think C might be wrong?

-Yes.

Andrew?

My only doubt is about how many countries belong in NATO.

It might be less than that.

All right, Madeleine, let's see how many are correct.

-LAUGHTER

-Three out of four. Well, you're consistent!

-Yes!

Unfortunately, it's not Perfection. The Usual Suspects get a chance again. Can you steal the round?

You can see Madeleine's answers. You need to change one. Which one?

-Shall we trying A, NATO?

-Yes, I think so.

-Right, Nick, can we change A from true to false, please?

-You can.

A changes from true to false, leaving B, C and D as answered by Madeleine.

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

-Madeleine, have they nicked it off you one more time?

-I think so.

Over 50 countries belong to NATO - is that true or false?

It is false.

There are 28 member nations

and, already, you know where this is going.

Frankie Boyle is the step brother of Susan Boyle -

is that true or false?

It's false.

No relation whatsoever. Queen's Brian May has a PhD

in astrophysics - is that true or false?

That is actually true.

He has done work with NASA.

Britain's first launderette opened in the 1980s - true or false?

That is, of course, false.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection again.

APPLAUSE

The first launderette opened in 1949.

Usual Suspects, you have the opportunity to make Madeleine's chances of winning the prize fund

much more difficult again. Let's see the final board.

Four subject categories chosen by the Usual Suspects,

and because they won that round,

they get to choose the last two. So which two is it going to be?

-What do you think, guys?

-Animation's jumping out at me.

-Animation?

Animation. OK, first one we'll try is Animation please, Nick.

Animation goes across.

What about Cricketers?

-That could be quite interesting. Are you happy with that?

-Yep.

-The last one will be Cricketers.

-The last one is Cricketers.

So we now have our six final categories...

Well played, Usual Suspects, it's time to switch you off, but we'll see you later.

-And away they go. They haven't done you any favours, have they?

-No!

Madeleine, for £10,000, it is time to play the final.

APPLAUSE

Madeleine, this is the all-important final.

If you can achieve Perfection, you could be leaving with £10,000.

-That would be nice, wouldn't it?

-Lovely.

However, if you fail, you will leave with nothing, which will be great news for the Usual Suspects

as one of them could be playing for a roll over of £11,000 on the next game.

Let's play the final round.

APPLAUSE

Madeleine, here are your final six categories.

-Lovingly chosen for you by the Usual Suspects(!)

-LAUGHTER

Think carefully, there's no time limit, but once you give me an answer, your first answer,

-it will be locked in.

-Yes.

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

-False.

-False.

Um, was it played in Uruguay?

-True.

-True.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False.

-False.

-False.

-True.

-True.

And with that all your answers are locked in.

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

-Which ones are you unsure of?

-B, D and C.

-The sort of middle three?

-Yes.

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

Usual Suspects, you can see the final statements

and next to them are Madeleine's answers.

Madeleine, your answers are locked in and you can't change them by yourself.

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. Who would you like to hear from first?

-Kassa.

-I believe two are wrong.

Does that mean you'd like to come down and help?

No, I'm going to leave it up to these two.

-You're going to bow out, are you?

-Yes.

-Do want to hear from somebody else?

-Yes, I'll hear from Phil.

You've definitely got at least one wrong. I'd be willing to come down.

-For how much?

-£7,000.

He wants £7,000 of your £10,000, what are you going to do?

I'll see what Andrew's got to say.

I know that you've also got one definitely wrong.

I'd be prepared to come and help you for 6,500.

LAUGHTER

6,500. Still 6,500 of your 10,000.

-It still leaves you with only 3,500.

-I know!

Phil is offering to come down for £7,000,

Andrew's offering to come down for £6,500.

What do you think and what do you want to do?

Split it. 50-50, Phil?

Phil, you're being offered a 50-50 split. £5,000 each.

Er, 50-50, yep.

-Is that agreed?

-Yes.

-Agreed.

So, Phil, for £5,000 of the £10,000 prize fund, please come and join us.

OK.

APPLAUSE

Madeleine, you've asked Phil for help.

If you achieve Perfection it will cost you £5,000 of your potential prize fund of £10,000.

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

This is your only shot at winning Perfection.

-Have you made the right decision?

-I think so.

-We're about to find out.

Here are the final-round statements.

Phil, which answers do you want Madeleine to change?

I think you should definitely change C.

Matt Damon played Ryan and Tom Hanks was looking for him.

-I haven't seen it...

-So I'd definitely change that one.

The only one... I think you've done really well. The only one I'm not sure of is D.

-The Radio Luxembourg.

-I used to listen to it in the '60s.

-Right.

I don't know when it...

If we know it was there in the '60s, then...

Could it have started that early?

That's the only one I'm not quite sure about.

-I'd definitely change C.

-I'll change C to false.

C changes from true to false.

OK, is there anything else before you close the rest?

I'll take my chance with Radio Luxembourg and lock it all in.

-Lock all those answers?

-Yep.

-All those answers are now locked in.

OK. Six answers away. Let's find out if you've achieved Perfection.

I want to do one last check. Andrew, you said you thought there was one wrong.

Which one did you think was the one that should've been changed?

The same one, C.

That's interesting. All right,

we can start at the top and see how we go.

Judd Trump became famous as lead singer of McFly.

You said that was false, Madeleine. Is that true or false?

-That is false. Well done.

-APPLAUSE

He's a snooker player.

Uruguay won the first-ever Football World Cup.

You said that was true.

Is it true or false?

It's true.

APPLAUSE

Then you get to the interesting ones because you've got C,

Tom Hanks played Ryan in Saving Private Ryan

and you came down to change that, Phil.

You also had a discussion about D,

Radio Luxembourg began transmitting in the 1930s.

I'm really not sure of D.

The two of those are the interesting ones. Let's hop over those and carry on and come back to them at the end.

Let's go on to E, the Flintstones lived in Little Rock.

You thought that was false, Madeleine. Is it true or false?

You're quite right, it's false.

It's Bedrock.

Then you get to Ian Botham being well known for his charity walks.

You thought this was true. Is it true or is it false?

-APPLAUSE

-Well.

So here you are. Two thirds of the way for the £10,000 and this is

where we find out whether it was worth having Phil come down or not.

Let's go back up to those two that were interesting.

Tom Hanks played Ryan in Saving Private Ryan.

Madeleine, you thought that was true,

but Phil came down to tell you that's not true.

Because you think it was Matt Damon that played the character Ryan in Saving Private Ryan.

So is it true, or is it false?

It's false.

APPLAUSE

Private Ryan is played by Matt Damon.

The question is now, should you have listened to him about Radio Luxembourg?

-Or, although you weren't so forceful about this one, were you?

-No.

-Not sure.

-He wasn't sure.

Or were you right to stick with the false answer you gave straight away?

You need this to turn red for you to share £10,000. £5,000 each.

What would 5,000 mean to you, Phil?

We've just had a small baby and I'd love for my wife to be able

to bring him up and not have to pay somebody else to do it

and miss out on his first words. So that would go a long way to help.

-OK, and Madeleine?

-Holiday.

-A holiday?

-Yes.

-Can I come?

-LAUGHTER

You're staying at home to help your wife with the baby.

-I'll send you a postcard.

-Let's find out where we stand.

Radio Luxembourg began transmitting in the 1930s.

You said "false". You stuck with false.

Is it true, or is it false for £10,000?

-It's true.

-Oh, no!

SHE LAUGHS

It began transmitting from Luxembourg to England in English in the 1930s.

I'm afraid you failed to achieve Perfection, which is great news

for the Usual Suspects, because the prize-money rolls over to the next game.

Some hand rubbing going on there from Andrew! Very pleased with that.

Where one of you could be playing for a total of £11,000.

-You've got to be pleased with that.

-APPLAUSE

I'm afraid, Madeleine and Phil, you failed to achieve Perfection,

-which means you go home with nothing. I hope you enjoyed playing.

-I've enjoyed it.

Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it for Phil and Madeleine.

APPLAUSE

Well, 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 £11,000.

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

We only pay for Perfection. Goodbye.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
