Episode 43 Perfection

Welcome to the show that demands nothing less than perfection.

Behind me are four contestants who'll be hoping their knowledge is flawless.

One mistake could give the game away.

This is Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Hello. Welcome to Perfection, the quiz show where only perfect play is good enough.

Behind me are the contestants. We call them the Usual Suspects.

They're in our isolation room.

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

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

For example, if I said...

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

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

Answering true or false might seem easy,

but if a contestant gets an 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.

Hi. I'm Stewart. I live in Glasgow. I'm an administrator for a training provider and this is my first game.

Hi, my name is Becky, from Shrewsbury.

I'm a primary school teacher and this is my second game.

Hello. My name's Diane. I'm from Broseley in Shropshire.

I'm a school cleaner and this is my third game.

Hi. I'm Cheryl. I live in Stockport.

I work in manufacturing and this is my fifth game.

Welcome to you all, especially Stewart, playing his first game.

Good luck to you all. Let's find out who's been randomly picked to play Perfection.

Diane, it's you. Please come and play Perfection.

-Diane, welcome to the game.

-Hello.

-Let's find out more about you.

-There's something fascinating about you.

-Well, I'm one of a twin.

Yes. That's interesting, but it's not the weirdest thing.

-I've got twin brothers as well.

-That's really unlikely, to have two sets of twins in the same family.

-It is, yes.

-Are there other brothers and sisters as well?

I've got another sister who passed away a couple of years ago,

-and another brother.

-Your brother's older or younger?

-I'm the oldest.

There's five years gap between the oldest and youngest.

Not between you and your twin sister?

No. Different days, though.

-Different days?!

-Before and after midnight.

I'm glad to hear it!

It's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

Once your team-mates, they're now your enemies.

Their job is to stop you winning the prize fund.

Your failure means the money rolls over to the next game

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

Every game on Perfection is worth £1,000.

The good news is nobody won the last game.

So the prize fund stands at £2,000.

What would you spend £2,000 on?

A cruise. I'd love to go and see the Northern Lights and the glaciers.

-A Nordic cruise?

-Oh, yes. Lovely.

-Really.

Good luck. Here's how the game works.

You play three rounds, then a final. Every round you achieve perfection will make the final easier for you.

However, if your performance is anything less than perfect,

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

making the final much harder for you.

Usual Suspects, we'll switch you off now so you can't see or hear anything.

Away they go.

Each round has four true or false statements.

You'll answer against the clock. Your first answers will be locked in.

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Good. Let's play Perfection.

Round One. Your 45 seconds starts now.

-True.

-True.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False.

-False.

-False.

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

-Happy with that?

-Yes, I am.

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

Usual Suspects, these were the four statements, with Diane's answers.

Cheryl, how's she done?

I think she's done pretty well. I think she's got perfection.

-Becky, do you agree?

-No,

I think B might be false. I think it's Dorset's got the coastline on the English Channel.

I think Somerset's to the north.

-Stewart?

-She hasn't achieved perfection.

A is wrong. B, possibly Becky knows more than me, but yeah,

that's possibly wrong as well.

Diane, the moment of truth.

Let's find out how many are correct.

-Ooh.

-Just one out of four.

That's unexpected to you, and the Usual Suspects too.

You certainly haven't achieved perfection, so the Usual Suspects are in the game.

Can you steal the round?

You can see Diane's answers. You need to change three of them.

-Which three?

-The only one I knew for sure is Pippa Middleton is younger than Kate.

So you think that's the only one she's got right?

That's the only one I knew.

I'm pretty certain about B. You were confident with A.

-Operation Desert Storm was Iraq. Not Afghanistan.

-Right.

-So in which case...

-Change A, B and C.

-A, B and C.

-All happy?

-Can we change A from true to false.

-A changes from true to false.

-B from true to false.

-B from true to false.

-C from false to true.

-C from false to true.

Leaving D as answered by Diane.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

It was in Iraq. Exactly right, Stewart.

False as well. It has a coast on the Bristol Channel.

Surprisingly, he played a character called Randy!

Congratulations, Usual Suspects. You have achieved perfection.

Oh, dear, Diane. They succeeded where you failed

and have stolen the round.

You now have the opportunity of making Diane's chances of winning the prize fund much harder.

Here's how.

Diane, this is your final board appearing before you.

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

Here are your final round categories appearing.

If you'd won that round, you could choose two categories to add to the board.

But because the Usual Suspects stole the round from you,

the choose the two categories hoping to make the final harder for you.

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

I would think Marx Brothers.

Not too many people know that.

-Not too much into them.

-Shall we do...

-Yeah, Marx Brothers.

Can we move Marx Brothers over, please.

Marx Brothers. And one more, please?

-Golf.

-Golf.

-Golf. Golf over, please.

Golf goes into the final, too.

Well done, Usual Suspects. Time to switch you off. See you in Round Two.

-Away they go. Marx Brothers?

-I do know who the Marx Brothers are.

-But...

-Big golf fan?

-Golf? Oh, no!

Just stick and ball.

Yeah. Let's look at the subject categories on offer.

Which two would you choose, given the chance?

I'm quite keen on board games.

And probably dinosaurs.

OK. Which two would you like to avoid?

Jimmy Hoffa and politics.

Well, it's only the first round. You still have two more rounds to find perfection

and choose your own categories for the final. Ready for the next round?

-Yes.

-OK. Let's play Round Two.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

Is that the one coming out of a shell? Yes.

-I need the word.

-True.

-True. Thank you very much.

-False.

-False.

Ooh.

-True.

-True.

-Sounds familiar. True.

-True.

With time to spare, you answered all four statements. Happy?

-Yes.

-In with a chance of perfection?

-Maybe.

-Maybe! Not so keen to commit this time!

Cross fingers, cross legs.

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

-OK.

Usual Suspects, these are the four statements, with Diane's answers.

Becky, has she achieved perfection?

I don't think she has. I have a feeling Harrods might have a dress code for customers,

strange as that might sound.

I'd be inclined to change B from false to true.

-Stewart?

-I think C is definitely wrong.

The Tour de France started much later than that.

Cheryl, what do you make of it?

I think definitely B and C are wrong.

I think the Tour de France was later and Harrods,

I read somewhere they weren't allowed in with ripped jeans.

So definitely a dress code.

Diane, the moment of truth. Let's see how many are correct.

Just one out of four.

Consistent, but not particularly consistently good, I'm afraid.

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

You can see Diane's answers. But which three do you need to change?

B, C and D.

I'm confident that A is correct.

OK.

That was quick. Can we change B from false to true, please.

-B changes from false to true.

-C from true to false.

C from true to false.

-And D from true to false.

-D from true to false.

Leaving A as answered by Diane.

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

So you know, now, where this is going.

Stewart, you were right on that. It started in 1903.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects. You have achieved perfection.

Let's clear that up. He was the North Korean leader, for 17 years.

Diane, the Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed and stolen the round again.

You now have the opportunity of making Diane's chances of winning the prize fund much harder.

Let's see the final board.

There are two subject categories already chosen by the Usual Suspects.

Because you won that round, you can choose the next two as well.

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

-Dinosaurs, I think.

-I think dinosaurs.

Dinosaurs? Yes, go with that.

Can we move dinosaurs, please?

Dinosaurs goes into the final. One more, please.

I would think OK Corral. That's specialised.

-I think so. I don't think she'd know much about that.

-OK.

-OK Corral, please.

-OK Corral goes into the final.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects. Well played. You won the second round as well as the first.

Time to switch you off. We'll see you in Round Three.

What do you make of the two they've chosen? Dinosaurs and OK Corral.

Dinosaurs is not too bad. OK Corral could be anything.

I know it's Westerns.

OK. Look, hasn't gone too well in the first two,

-but this, I feel, will be the round where you're going to shine.

-That's it.

-Yeah.

-Bring it on!

-OK. Let's play Round Three!

Your 45 seconds starts now.

Apiary.

-Yes, true. True.

-True.

I'm only into the music ones. But she's a singer. True.

True.

I think that's false. Sounds...

-False.

-Yes.

-Yes. True.

-True.

With time to spare, you answered all four statements.

-How was that one?

-A little bit better.

-A little bit better?

-Yes.

I think I got more than one this time!

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

Usual Suspects, these were the statements, with Diane's answers.

Stewart, is that perfection you see before you?

Not quite. Diane's got one wrong as far as I can see.

And that's A. Apiaries are bee hives, I think.

-Becky?

-I agree with Stewart. A is a place to keep bees.

I think B as well should be false

because I think Alexandra Burke was the X Factor, not Fame Academy.

They don't believe you've achieved perfection.

Let's see how many are correct.

Two out of four is actually a vast improvement! It's double!

-Yes!

-But unfortunately, it's only half of what you need to achieve.

So you haven't achieved perfection so the Usual Suspects are in the game.

You know how this works. You can see Diane's answers.

You need to change two. But which two?

-B, definitely. X Factor.

-Yeah.

-Definitely.

-I'll go with you, cos I don't watch these.

We're quite confident, aren't we?

-Yeah. What about A?

-I thought it was bees, and so did you.

OK. So A and B, yeah?

Can we change A from true to false?

-A changes from true to false.

-And B from true to false.

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

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

You're absolutely right, Usual Suspects, Stewart and Becky. It's used for bees.

She won the X Factor in 2008, as you said.

You know where this is going, now.

It's from the shoulder of a pig.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects. You have achieved perfection.

Bad news for you, Diane. The Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed.

They've stolen the round. The news isn't getting any better.

Usual Suspects, because you won that round,

you now have the opportunity to make Diane's chances of winning the prize fund a lot harder.

Let's see the final board.

It contains four categories chosen by you, the Usual Suspects.

Because you won the last round, you choose the next two as well.

It's a full house for you. Which two would you like her to play?

-Shall we pick one each?

-Scotland, maybe.

-Yeah. OK. Can we move Scotland over, please?

-Scotland goes over.

-I think politics is always difficult, so maybe politics.

-OK.

-Politics, please.

-Politics goes into the final.

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

Very well played, Usual Suspects. A clean sweep for you there.

Time to switch you off for the final time.

-What do you make of those last two?

-I knew they'd choose politics!

-Well, it's worth a guess.

-You never know.

You have a 50/50 chance and, by the way, you're improving as you go along!

I might get three next time!

You need all six, and I think you're perfectly capable of doing it.

Diane, for £2,000, it's time to play the final.

Diane, this is the all-important final. If you achieve perfection,

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

If you fail, you leave with nothing, which is great news for the Usual Suspects

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

So, let's play the final round.

Diane, here are your final six categories.

You must answer all six statements perfectly if you want to win the £2,000.

Think carefully. There's no time limit.

Once you've given an answer, it'll be locked in. Are you ready?

-Ready.

-Let's reveal your first statement.

Tell me whether you believe it to be true or false?

Marx Brothers.

That's a familiar name.

I will... I think it's true.

True.

Golf.

It's one I've never heard of.

It could be true. No, I'm going to go for false.

False.

Dinosaurs.

I seem to have read somewhere they were not very tall.

So I'm going to go for false.

-False.

-Yeah.

OK Corral.

They had a fight there.

Lots of guns.

Yes, I'm going to say that is true.

True.

Scotland.

No, I've heard of this. This is one I have heard of.

I think it's something you eat.

So I'm going to say that's false.

False. And finally, Politics.

Ooh.

Difficult, this one.

I've got her face in my mind.

Yes, I think that's true. Yes. Definitely true.

True.

With that, Diane, those answers are locked in.

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

-Right.

-What are you unsure of?

-Velociraptors, maybe.

-That's bothering you?

-Yes.

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

Usual Suspects, you can see the final statements, with Diane's answers.

Diane, your answers are locked in. You can't change them,

but you can unlock the board with the help of the Usual Suspects.

This will, however, come at a cost.

Usual Suspects, I'll ask you how well you think Diane has done,

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

Who would you like to hear from first?

Stewart. What do you think?

You've got definitely one wrong. Possibly two.

But I'm not sure about the second one so I can't come and help you.

That's fairly clear.

Never mind. Cheryl, what about you?

I could only be sure on two, to be honest, Di.

So I wouldn't be able to help. Sorry.

Go on, then, Becky. What do you think?

Well, I'm pretty certain you've got three right

but the other three, I don't have a clue. So I can't help you out this time.

-OK.

-There are no offers of help coming from the Usual Suspects.

To be honest, they probably set you as difficult a board as they could.

So no Usual Suspects willing to help. You're on your own.

-OK.

-£2,000 at stake. Six answers away.

Let's see if you've achieved perfection.

Let's start at the top. One of the Marx Brothers was called Zeppo.

You thought Zeppo sounded right,

so you said true. If this turns green, you're off to a flying start.

If it turns red, you've fallen at the first hurdle and the money rolls over.

True or false?

It's true. Good start.

You said you'd never heard of it, therefore it must be false.

You need this to turn red.

I'm afraid that's true.

Diane, I'm afraid that means you haven't achieved perfection

-and you won't be taking home any cash.

-Oh, well.

I wonder whether you can still achieve perfection at home.

Let's go through the rest of the statements and see how you've done.

You said false.

Absolutely right. They were on average about six feet tall.

The OK Corral was in Deadwood. You said true. Is it true or false?

It was in Tombstone, Arizona.

An Arbroath Smokie is a type of sheep. You said you thought it was something you eat.

You do kind of eat a sheep, don't you? But anyway,

is it true or false?

It is false. Very well done.

-It's a smoked haddock.

-Right.

-And very tasty it is, too.

So in the end, you got four out of six, which isn't bad,

given that all the categories were chosen by the Usual Suspects.

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

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

Diane, you failed to achieve perfection, so you go home with nothing.

-I hope you enjoyed playing.

-I did, very much.

It's been lovely having you. Diane, ladies and gentlemen.

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

New Usual Suspect, please introduce yourself.

Hello, I'm Louis. I'm from Yorkshire and I'm a teacher.

Welcome, Louis. Best of luck to all of you

as we find out which of you has been randomly picked to play Perfection.

Becky, you've been chosen. Please come down and play.

-Becky, welcome to the show.

-Thank you.

Let's find out a bit more about you. I've been doing some research.

Something fascinating about you, you've taken up ballet.

A lot of people do ballet, but normally as children.

You took it up just two years ago.

I did. I wanted to do ballet as a child, as many girls do,

but for one reason or another, I never got around to it.

It was always a dream in the back of my mind.

Then a couple of years ago, I found an adults' ballet course which I didn't think existed for beginners.

-And some friends and I have been going.

-Enjoy it?

-Yeah.

I don't think I'm very good, but I enjoy it!

-Doesn't matter. It's taking part that matters.

-Exactly. Just bounce across the floor.

OK. Becky, it's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

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

The good news is nobody's won the last two games

so the prize fund currently stands at £3,000.

What would you do with that £3,000?

I'd quite like to go to a dude ranch in America and be a cowboy.

-What's a dude ranch?

-It's like an old cowboy ranch

but they've been converted for holidays

so you can go over there and pretend to be a cowboy

and go and herd cattle and ride the horses.

It sounds like a lot of fun!

OK. Three rounds to come and a final.

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

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

Away they go.

-Ready?

-Yes.

-Then let's get started and play Perfection.

Round One. Your 45 seconds start now.

-False. I think that's about Facebook.

-False.

That's false. Chicago, Illinois.

False.

I don't know, but I'll go true.

True. Finally...

Um, it sounds Spanish, so I'll say true.

True.

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

-How was that round?

-Um, we'll find out.

That's very true. I was wondering how you felt about it.

Did it feel like perfection?

-The first two I'm confident about. The second two were guesses.

-OK.

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

Usual Suspects, these were the four statements, with Becky's answers.

Is that perfection, Cheryl?

I'm not sure. I know A is definitely correct.

But the rest I'd be guessing at.

-Louis, welcome to the show.

-Hello.

What do you make of those answers?

I think she's done really well

because Social Network is not about Twitter, it's about Facebook.

So that one is false. B is true.

And the other two she's got correct.

-You think she's made a mistake with B.

-Definitely.

Stewart, what do you make of it?

She might possibly have perfection.

But I'm not sure about one, so I can't comment.

-Which one are you worried about?

-D.

She may have D wrong.

Becky, the moment of truth. You need to have answered all four perfectly to win the round. Let's find out.

Three out of four.

Not bad, but not perfection. You've let the Usual Suspects into the game.

Can you steal the round? You can see her answers.

You need to change one. Which one?

Is Chicago definitely the largest city in Michigan?

And I thought Hernan Cortes might play for Brazil. I'm not sure.

I know it's in Michigan. I know it's a big industrial city.

-But whether it's the biggest.

-Detroit is also Michigan.

-Yes.

So B we're unsure about.

Is there another one we're 50/50 on?

I don't know about Drambuie. I've never had it.

-I don't know.

-Yes, it does contain honey.

-Yeah? Right.

So it's either B or D.

I think B is correct, it's false.

-I think it's D, the footballer.

-OK.

-So go for D?

-Changing D?

-Change D.

-You're sure?

-Yeah.

-OK.

We'll change D.

We'll change D from true to false, please, Nick.

D changes from true to false,

leaving A, B and C as they are.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

You were quite right. It's about Facebook.

Chicago, Illinois. Detroit is the largest city in Michigan.

You know where this is going now.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects. You have achieved perfection.

Let's clear that last one up.

Cheryl thought he might play for Brazil.

He was a 16th-century soldier who conquered a lot of South America!

Oh. Never mind!

Either way, you got to the right answer.

Becky, they've succeeded where you failed and have stolen the round.

Usual Suspects, you can now make Becky's chances of winning the prize fund a bit harder.

Here's how. Becky, here's your final board.

These six spaces need to be filled with subject categories.

Here are your final categories.

Because the Usual Suspects stole the round, they can choose the categories

hoping to make the final that much harder for you.

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

-Cricket?

-Yeah, she won't know a lot about cricket.

-Yep.

-Can we move cricket over, please?

-Cricket goes into the final.

Cary Grant? He's quite old. Don't think she'd know about that.

-Yeah.

-Paul Newman? Bees?

-Bees.

-Bees?

-Yes.

-OK.

Louis smiled at that. We'll go for bees, please.

Bees goes into the final. Thank you. Well done, Usual Suspects.

You won the first round. Time to switch you off.

We'll see you in Round Two.

What do you think? Do you know anything about cricket?

Not very much, but they could have chosen worse ones, I think.

Which are the two you'd like to avoid in that list?

Cary Grant. They were right. I know absolutely nothing about.

Probably Paul Newman, similar reason.

Which two would you choose, given the opportunity?

I think maybe Populations

and Fairytales, depending on the statement, might be all right.

Becky, you have two more chances to find perfection and choose your own categories for the final

which is the way to go forward.

-Ready for the next round?

-Ready.

-Let's play Round Two.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

I would say it probably is, yes. True.

True.

I think that's also true.

True.

I've never heard of a kakapo.

So this has to be a guess.

I would say false.

False. Finally...

I came on the tube to get here. I don't think so. I'll say false.

False.

With time to spare, you answered all four statements. Is this a perfect round?

I don't think it is, unless I've been very lucky!

A couple were guesses.

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

Usual Suspects, these were the four statements, with Becky's answers.

Louis, is this a perfect board?

Potentially. She's done really well.

The one I'm a little worried about is the kakapo.

-It might be a flightless bird.

-OK.

-Stewart?

-Yes, I'd agree with Louis.

I think kakapo is possibly true.

Becky, the moment of truth.

They think you've got one wrong. Let's see how many are correct.

Three out of four's not bad, but not perfection.

Once again you've allowed the Usual Suspects into the game.

Usual Suspects, you can steal this round. You can see Becky's answers. You need to change one.

I wonder which one?

OK. We'll change C from false to true, please, Nick.

C changes from false to true,

leaving A, B and D as Becky answered.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

A kakapo is a flightless bird.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects. You have achieved perfection.

Let's clear up that last one. Trafalgar Square is a tube station.

It isn't. That's the answer to that!

The Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed and have stolen the round.

Usual Suspects, you now have the opportunity to make Becky's chances of winning the prize fund of £3,000

a little bit harder. Here's the final board.

Two subject categories chosen by the Usual Suspects.

Because you won that round, you choose the next two as well.

-What is it going to be?

-I'm drawn towards Cary Grant or Paul Newman.

-It's older and I don't know if she watches...

-Cary Grant is further back than Paul Newman.

-So I'd go for Cary Grant.

-Happy with that?

-I agree.

Can we move Cary Grant over, please, Nick.

Cary Grant goes over. I need one more.

-Anyone?

-Radio Comedy?

-Radio Comedy. Happy, Louis?

-Yes.

-Radio Comedy, please.

-Radio Comedy goes into the final.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you've won the second round.

We'll see you in Round Three.

-You said you didn't want Cary Grant!

-Yes.

Although they toyed with Paul Newman and then went for Radio Comedy.

-Is that any better?

-Well, probably not, no!

No. The thing is, you have to win the round yourself

in order to get your own selection.

One more chance now to do that. Are you ready?

-Yeah.

-Good luck. Let's play Round Three.

Your 45 seconds start now.

-I don't know. I'll say true.

-True.

Um, I don't know, either.

Petra sounds a bit Russian, to me.

-So I'd say false.

-False.

That sounds bizarre, so I'll say false.

False. Finally...

That is a Japanese island.

-So I'll say true.

-True.

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

Does that feel like the kind of round that might be perfect?

That was more difficult than the previous two, unfortunately!

Before we reveal how well you've done,

let's bring back those pesky Usual Suspects.

Usual Suspects, these were the four statements, with Becky's answers.

Stewart, what do you make of that board?

I think Becky's probably got perfection.

There's one I just don't know.

If that's right, it's perfection.

Cheryl, do you think this is a good board for her?

Yeah. I think I know two for definite.

Two I'd have to guess at.

But I'd have gone for the same answers.

OK. Moment of truth.

You need to answer all four perfectly to win the round.

Let's see how many are correct.

-Ooh!

-Congratulations, Becky. You have achieved perfection.

-That's exciting.

-It is.

Let's look at those in more detail.

He was a decathlete for the US team.

The World Heritage Site of Petra is in Israel.

You thought it might be Russian.

-Actually, it's in Jordan.

-Not Russia at all.

It's not Israel, and that's all you needed to know.

You said it sounded bizarre! That's because it's false.

-Generally thought to have originated in New Orleans.

-Yes.

Honshu being the largest island in Japan.

Becky, as a result of that perfect performance, you've made winning the prize fund a lot easier.

Let's have a look at the final board.

Four categories chosen by the Usual Suspects.

Now is a chance for your light to shine.

You choose the last two. What will you have?

I think I will go for Populations.

Populations goes across.

And I think I'll stick with what I said, and go for Fairytales.

Fairytales goes into the final.

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

It's time to switch off the Usual Suspects for the last time.

Away they go.

Becky, for £3,000, it's time to play the final.

Becky, the all-important final.

If you can achieve perfection, you'll leave with a prize fund of £3,000.

If you fail, you leave with nothing,

great news for the Usual Suspects, because one of them could play for £4,000 on the next game.

So, let's play the final round.

Here are your final categories.

You must answer all six statements perfectly

if you want to win the £3,000.

Think carefully. There's no time limit,

but once you've given an answer, it will be locked in.

-Ready?

-Yep.

-Let's reveal your first statement.

Tell me whether you believe it to be true or false.

Cricket.

I don't know for certain.

I'm assuming his real name isn't Dickie.

-So I'm going to say true.

-True.

Bees.

I think all worker bees are female.

So I'm going to say that's false.

False.

Cary Grant.

I know the film, but I haven't seen it.

A very famous film.

Cary Grant is certainly a name I'd associate with that era of film.

-So I'll say true.

-True.

Radio Comedy.

I think Kenneth Williams was the one from the Carry On films.

Unless I'm mistaking him with somebody.

I'm going to say he wasn't. So false.

False.

Populations.

I'd say that's true.

True. And finally...

I thought they were completely different fairytales, myself.

But I could be wrong.

I'll say false. That's my instinct.

False. Those answers are now locked in.

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

-Which ones are you unsure of?

-I'm not certain about any of them.

The real guess is A.

I've no idea what Dickie Bird's first name is.

That's the real guess. The others are educated guesses, but I don't know for certain.

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

Usual Suspects, you can see the final statements

and next to them, Becky's answers.

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

But if you think you've made a mistake, you can unlock the board

with the help of the Usual Suspects.

This will, however, come at a cost.

Who would you like to hear from first?

Louis first, please.

OK. How do you think you've done?

Well, I'm quite confident on three of them.

-And the other three have been educated guesses.

-Right.

I can see three that I'm fairly sure that you've got wrong.

There's one you've definitely got right.

And three to me look wrong.

That's my situation at the moment.

Would you be interested in coming down for some of the money?

If I were to come down, it would be for 2,000.

I wouldn't negotiate on that.

Would you like to hear from anybody else?

Yes, Stewart, please.

I think you've got one definitely wrong.

And another I'm not quite sure about.

But I wouldn't like to improve on Louis' offer.

-You're counting yourself out, Stewart?

-That's correct.

-Thank you.

-Cheryl, please?

There's a couple that I think you have got wrong

but I'd probably just be guessing, to be honest. Sorry, I can't help you.

-So Cheryl's not prepared to come down.

-No.

You have to make a decision. Are you being bluffed. Have you got it all right on your own?

You could win the money on your own.

Do you need some help? Do you want to negotiate with Louis?

I think £2,000 is a bit too much,

so I'd have to decline that offer.

Are you offering any other amount or will you go on your own?

-I'm happy to go on my own.

-OK. Negotiations have come to an end.

Louis, your offer has been turned down. Becky, you're going it alone.

£3,000 at stake. Six answers away.

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

Which is the one you're most worried about out of all of those?

I think it's A. I've got no idea.

All right. Let's start at the top and find out.

If you're right, this will turn green

and you'll be well on your way to the £3,000.

If it turns red, you've fallen at the first hurdle.

OK.

Good start. Very good.

Are worker bees are male. You said that's false.

-Yes.

-You thought all worker bees are female.

-Yes.

-I thought they were.

-So this should turn red.

It's false.

You're absolutely right. All worker bees are female.

-Right.

-Then we come to Cary Grant, starred in It's A Wonderful Life.

You said this was true because it was from around the right era.

If you're right, this will turn green and you'll be halfway to the money.

It's false.

I'm afraid it was James Stewart who starred in It's A Wonderful Life.

I'm afraid that means you haven't achieved perfection and you go home with no cash on this occasion.

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

-He was never in The Goons. He was in Round the Horn, on radio.

-Right.

And finally, Tom Thumb is Thumbelina's twin brother.

-They are two unrelated tales, as you said.

-That's what I thought. Yes.

So you got both your own categories correct. Look at that board.

Only one away, the Cary Grant question.

Louis, it's easy to say now,

but was that one of the ones you knew or wanted to change?

Yes, I thought that was wrong. Yes.

-But he also thought you had other ones wrong.

-He did.

So you may have ended up with a worse board.

Either way, you haven't achieved perfection.

Great news for you, Usual Suspects.

The prize fund rolls over to the next game where one of you could play for £4,000.

Becky, I'm afraid you failed to achieve perfection,

-so you go home with nothing on this occasion.

-Yeah.

-Hope you enjoyed playing?

-I did. I'm pleased to get fairly close, if not perfect.

Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it for Becky. Thanks for playing.

That's all we have time for. Join us next time when our Usual Suspects will play for £4,000.

Remember, on this show, five out of six isn't close enough.

We only pay for perfection. Goodbye!
