0:00:02 > 0:00:06Welcome to the quiz that demands nothing less than perfection.
0:00:06 > 0:00:11One single mistake could give the game away. This is Perfection.
0:00:23 > 0:00:28Hello and welcome to Perfection. Behind me are the contestants.
0:00:28 > 0:00:34We call them the Usual Suspects. In a moment we'll find out which one has been randomly selected
0:00:34 > 0:00:41to join me here to play Perfection. They then face true or false statements. If I said...
0:00:43 > 0:00:47..would you say that's true or false?
0:00:47 > 0:00:49If you said true, you'd be right.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53Answering true or false might seem easy, but get a single answer wrong
0:00:53 > 0:00:58and the Usual Suspects are allowed in to capitalise on the mistake.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02So you know how the game works. Let's meet the Usual Suspects.
0:01:02 > 0:01:06Hi, I'm Tommy from Hamilton. I work in admin. This is my first game.
0:01:06 > 0:01:11Hello, I'm Pete from York. I'm a guitar teacher. It's my first game.
0:01:11 > 0:01:16Hi, I'm Rachael from Brighton. I'm a social worker. It's my third game.
0:01:16 > 0:01:21Hi, I'm Cheryl, I live in Stockport. I work in manufacturing and it's my 11th game.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Welcome to you all, especially Tommy and Pete.
0:01:24 > 0:01:29We'll now find out which one of you has been randomly picked to play.
0:01:31 > 0:01:35Tommy, it's you! Please, come and join us.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41Tommy, welcome to the game. No time to sit up there. Straight in...
0:01:41 > 0:01:47- And straight out here. - What other interests do you have? - Although I work in admin,
0:01:47 > 0:01:53I actually have an art degree, so I do a bit of commission work in my spare time.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57Ideally, at some point, I wouldn't mind being a wildlife artist.
0:01:57 > 0:02:03- Wow.- It's a long-term plan. Hopefully, eventually it can happen.
0:02:03 > 0:02:08All right. Good luck, Tommy. It's now you versus the Usual Suspects.
0:02:08 > 0:02:13Their job is to stop you winning so the prize money rolls over
0:02:13 > 0:02:19and one of them could play for a bigger total. Every game is worth £1,000. Here's great news -
0:02:19 > 0:02:26nobody has won the last seven games, so the prize fund currently stands at £8,000.
0:02:28 > 0:02:32- I have a feeling that would be a very useful chunk of money.- Yeah.
0:02:32 > 0:02:38A lot of it will actually be going to my mum. She's had a tough year so it would cheer her up
0:02:38 > 0:02:44- to have her new house looking tip-top.- Isn't that nice? Give him a round of applause.
0:02:45 > 0:02:50Well, look, best of luck. You'll play three rounds and then a final.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54Every round that you achieve perfection makes the final easier.
0:02:54 > 0:03:01However, anything less than perfect and the Usual Suspects can steal the round and make the final harder.
0:03:01 > 0:03:06Usual Suspects, we'll switch you off so you can't see or hear anything.
0:03:06 > 0:03:12Each round consists of four true or false statements against the clock. You have only 45 seconds.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16- Once you give me an answer, it's locked in.- Sure.
0:03:16 > 0:03:21- Good. Are you ready? - Ready as I'll ever be. - Then let's play Perfection.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Round 1. Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:03:29 > 0:03:34- No, I'm pretty convinced he was a Republican, so false.- False.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41I have absolutely no idea.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44I'm going to guess false.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46False.
0:03:48 > 0:03:54- I know this. I used to watch it. It's definitely true. - True. And finally...
0:03:58 > 0:04:00No, that's false. He's a sprinter.
0:04:00 > 0:04:05False. And with loads of time to spare, you've answered all four.
0:04:05 > 0:04:10- That felt pretty good.- I don't know B at all. That's a complete guess.
0:04:10 > 0:04:16Before we reveal exactly how well you've done, it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.
0:04:16 > 0:04:21These are the four statements and Tommy's answers. Cheryl?
0:04:21 > 0:04:26- I'm not too sure about B, but I think the others are right. - Rachael?- I agree.
0:04:26 > 0:04:31- B needs to change to true. - Pete, can you see anything wrong?
0:04:31 > 0:04:37- I agree with the ladies. I think B is the dodgy one. - OK, Tommy, the moment of truth.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41You need to have answered all four perfectly. How many are correct?
0:04:48 > 0:04:52Three out of four's not bad, but it's not perfection.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54You've let the Usual Suspects in.
0:04:54 > 0:05:00You can steal this round if only you can find the one Tommy appears to have got wrong.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Just one to change. Which one?
0:05:03 > 0:05:09- Definitely B?- I'm pretty sure I remember cassis being blackcurrant. - I'm pretty sure, too.
0:05:09 > 0:05:14- Change B from false to true, please. - Leaving A, C and D as answered by Tommy.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Let's find out what the correct answers are.
0:05:17 > 0:05:22Dick Cheney was Bill Clinton's Vice President. True or false?
0:05:22 > 0:05:27Yeah, it is false, of course. George W Bush's Vice President.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31Creme de cassis is a blackcurrant-flavoured drink.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35Yeah, that's true. You know where this is going.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Adam West has played Batman on TV.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42It is, of course, true. And Usain Bolt has an Olympic medal
0:05:42 > 0:05:44in the long jump. True or false?
0:05:44 > 0:05:46It's false.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50Congratulations, Usual Suspects. You have achieved perfection.
0:05:52 > 0:05:58Let's just clear that up. He is a very famous sprinter, not a long jumper.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01Tommy, they succeeded where you failed.
0:06:01 > 0:06:07Usual Suspects, you can now make Tommy's chances much harder and here's how.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11Tommy, this is your final board. Six blank subject categories.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15Here are your final round categories, starting with Roulette
0:06:15 > 0:06:18and on to Lone Ranger with more in-between.
0:06:18 > 0:06:23Because they stole the round, they choose the two categories to make the final harder.
0:06:23 > 0:06:28- Usual Suspects, which two would you like Tommy to play?- Scientists?
0:06:28 > 0:06:33Yeah, could be a good one. What about the Queen?
0:06:33 > 0:06:38- Do you want to go for the Queen and Scientists?- Yeah.
0:06:38 > 0:06:44- Can we move the Queen and Scientists, please?- The Queen goes across and so does Scientists.
0:06:44 > 0:06:50Very well played, Usual Suspects. Time to switch you off, but we will see you in Round 2.
0:06:50 > 0:06:55- Tommy, the Queen?- That'll probably be quite a difficult one for me.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59- Scientists? - I think I might be OK at that one.
0:06:59 > 0:07:05- Look at the categories on offer and give me two you'd avoid. - Chelsea will be a difficult one.
0:07:05 > 0:07:10And Miss World. I don't think I'd get anything related to that at all.
0:07:10 > 0:07:16- Which two will you be choosing, given the opportunity?- Probably Dogs and Mark Twain or Lone Ranger.
0:07:16 > 0:07:20It's only the first round. Let's play Round 2.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26Your 45 seconds start now.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33I think that's false. I'm sure I heard it was gold.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35- False.- False.
0:07:39 > 0:07:44- I don't believe it is. I'm sure it's a type of wool. False.- False.
0:07:47 > 0:07:52- I know that. I've read The Iliad. It's true.- True. And finally...
0:07:56 > 0:08:01I'm not too certain about that. I'm not overly familiar with her.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- I'm going to say false.- False.
0:08:04 > 0:08:11And again, with time to spare, you've answered all four. That felt good, perhaps until the end.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14Yeah, that last one's thrown me.
0:08:14 > 0:08:20Before we reveal how well you've done, it's time for us to bring back the Usual Suspects.
0:08:20 > 0:08:25These were Tommy's answers. Rachael, has he achieved perfection?
0:08:25 > 0:08:32- I don't think he has. I think I would change A from false to true. - Pete, what do you think?
0:08:32 > 0:08:36I don't think he's achieved it either, but I'd be changing D.
0:08:36 > 0:08:42- Cheryl?- D, I wouldn't have a clue, but the rest are right, I think.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Let's find out how many are correct.
0:08:50 > 0:08:54Three out of four is consistently close, but no cigar.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58You've failed to achieve perfection. You've let the Usual Suspects in.
0:08:58 > 0:09:04- You can see Tommy's answers. You need to change one, but which one?- I think it's D.
0:09:04 > 0:09:10Copper's an efficient conductor, but there are super-conductors that are better.
0:09:10 > 0:09:17- Usually they do copper wire. - But Barbara Hepworth has got a new gallery opened in Wakefield.- Really?
0:09:17 > 0:09:19- Do you know this for definite?- Yeah.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23- Let's go with D.- Go on, then. D from false to true, please.
0:09:23 > 0:09:28D changes, leaving A, B and C as answered by Tommy.
0:09:28 > 0:09:33Usual Suspects, let's find out what the correct answers are.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37Copper is the most efficient conductor of electricity.
0:09:37 > 0:09:42It is false, in actual fact. Silver is the most efficient.
0:09:42 > 0:09:47Copper is more widely used because it is cheaper.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50Angora is derived from beavers. True or false?
0:09:50 > 0:09:54Of course that's false. It would be hard to produce a lot!
0:09:54 > 0:10:01It's derived from goats or rabbits. The soldiers in the Trojan horse were Greek. True or false?
0:10:01 > 0:10:06That's true. Dame Barbara Hepworth was a famous sculptor.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08True or false?
0:10:08 > 0:10:12It's true. Congratulations, Usual Suspects. You've achieved perfection.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21- Oh, dear, Tommy. They've succeeded and stolen the round.- Yeah.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25You can now make Tommy's chances of winning much harder.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28Let's look at the final board.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32Usual Suspects, you get to choose again. Which two would you like?
0:10:32 > 0:10:35Goulash I like the look of.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37- Goulash?- Yeah.- Could be anything.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41- Or Miss World. - Miss World jumps out at me.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45- Yeah.- Miss World would be a good one.- Can we move Miss World, please?
0:10:45 > 0:10:49- Miss World goes across. - Mark Twain or Lone Ranger?
0:10:49 > 0:10:53- How about Mark Twain?- Yeah? I quite fancy that one.- Yeah.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57- Mark Twain, please.- Mark Twain goes into the final. Congratulations.
0:10:57 > 0:11:02You've won the second round. We'll see you in Round 3.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- You didn't want Miss World. - Yeah, that's a toughie.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09- But you did fancy Mark Twain. - I've not read any of his stuff,
0:11:09 > 0:11:16but I'm familiar with some of his stories, so I hope it's something I've heard or seen at some point.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20- You can't continue to let them choose the subjects.- No, no.
0:11:20 > 0:11:25You still have one more chance to find perfection and choose.
0:11:25 > 0:11:30So if you're ready, let's play Round 3.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Your 45 seconds starts now.
0:11:37 > 0:11:42- Oh, I'm not sure about that one. I'm going to say false.- False.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50- I think that's true. It's the only Brazilian city I know.- True.
0:11:55 > 0:12:00I don't know the name at all. Oh, that's another guess.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04- I'm going to say false. - False. And finally...
0:12:06 > 0:12:10I know this. It's a type of carp. It's definitely a fish. True.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14True. And with time to spare you've answered all four statements.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19- That, to me, didn't sound like you were comfortable all the way.- No.
0:12:19 > 0:12:25A and C I don't know. The only member of T.Rex I know of is...
0:12:25 > 0:12:29obviously, the singer, whose name I've just suddenly forgotten.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33I'm not allowed to give you any kind of information.
0:12:33 > 0:12:39- Marc Bolan. That's the one. - Before we reveal how you've done, we bring back the Usual Suspects.
0:12:39 > 0:12:46These were the four statements and next to them are Tommy's answers. Rachael, is this the perfect board?
0:12:46 > 0:12:53Nick, again it's not perfection. I'm fairly confident that B should be Brasilia, so that's false.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55- Pete, what do you think?- I agree.
0:12:55 > 0:13:00Three out of four again and the capital is Brasilia.
0:13:00 > 0:13:05- Cheryl?- Exactly right. - OK. Tommy, the moment of truth. How many are correct?
0:13:11 > 0:13:14You're consistent, I'll say that!
0:13:14 > 0:13:18But once again you've allowed them into the game.
0:13:18 > 0:13:23- You need to change just one again. Which one?- B we're thinking?
0:13:23 > 0:13:26Yeah. B from true to false, please.
0:13:26 > 0:13:31B changes from true to false, leaving A, C and D as answered.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Let's find out the correct answers.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38Bernie Taupin was a member of the band T.Rex. True or false?
0:13:38 > 0:13:44That is false. He was best known as the co-writer of Elton John's hit songs.
0:13:44 > 0:13:52He was the wordsmith. Rio de Janeiro is the capital of Brazil. Is that true or false?
0:13:52 > 0:13:58It is false. It's Brasilia, as the Usual Suspects said. You know where this is going.
0:13:58 > 0:14:04Malory Towers is a writer of crime fiction. True or false? That is, of course, false.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06It's a series of Enid Blyton books.
0:14:06 > 0:14:11And a koi is a type of fish. Is that true or false?
0:14:11 > 0:14:14It is true. Congratulations, Usual Suspects. You achieved perfection.
0:14:19 > 0:14:25- Tommy, you saw that coming.- Yeah. - They succeeded where you failed and they've stolen the round.
0:14:25 > 0:14:30You've already chosen the first four and it's clean sweep time.
0:14:30 > 0:14:35You get to choose the last two as well. Which two do you fancy?
0:14:35 > 0:14:39- Dogs could be a big category. - It could be, yes. Good thought.
0:14:39 > 0:14:44- Goulash? You liked goulash. - I just thought it was... Yeah.
0:14:44 > 0:14:49- We'll go with you, skipper.- Dogs and goulash. Not dogs in the goulash!
0:14:49 > 0:14:53- Dogs and goulash, please.- Dogs goes across and so does goulash.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56We know our six final categories.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04OK, guys, time to switch you off for the final time.
0:15:04 > 0:15:10- Dogs and goulash. You wanted dogs. - Yeah, I'll give that one a chance. As for goulash, I've eaten it,
0:15:10 > 0:15:15- but that's about it. - Have you cooked goulash?- No, never.
0:15:15 > 0:15:19Tommy, for £8,000 it's time to play the final.
0:15:21 > 0:15:26This is the all-important final. Achieve perfection and you could leave with £8,000.
0:15:26 > 0:15:31Fail and you leave with nothing, which would be great for the Usual Suspects.
0:15:31 > 0:15:37One of them could play for £9,000 in the next game. So let's play the final round.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41Here are your final six categories.
0:15:41 > 0:15:45You must answer all six correctly if you want to win the £8,000.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49There's no time limit, but once you give an answer, it's locked in.
0:15:49 > 0:15:55- Ready?- Yeah.- Let's reveal your first statement. Is it true or false?
0:16:04 > 0:16:08I'm pretty sure it was in reference to the year Diana died.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12So I'm going to say that one's false.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14False.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Just trying to think.
0:16:24 > 0:16:25Em...
0:16:27 > 0:16:30- I think that one's true.- True.
0:16:40 > 0:16:45I think perhaps people might have been a bit too prudish before the '50s.
0:16:45 > 0:16:50So it's going to be another wild guess and I'm going to say...true.
0:16:50 > 0:16:51True.
0:17:00 > 0:17:01Oh...
0:17:02 > 0:17:05I've never heard of that character.
0:17:05 > 0:17:10- It's going to be another wild guess. I'm going to say false.- False.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20I've never heard that expression in my life!
0:17:20 > 0:17:26I'm hoping there's a good reason for that. I'm hoping it isn't a real term.
0:17:26 > 0:17:31- I'm going to say false. - False. And finally...
0:17:36 > 0:17:41I think I know this one. I'm pretty certain that it is a Hungarian dish,
0:17:41 > 0:17:44- so I'm going to say that one is true.- True.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Now those answers are locked in.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51One mistake and you leave with nothing. Which are you unsure of?
0:17:51 > 0:17:55Definitely D and C are the ones that are really throwing me.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59All right, let's bring back the Usual Suspects.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03Usual Suspects, you can now see the statements and Tommy's answers.
0:18:03 > 0:18:10Your answers are now locked in, but you can unlock them with the help of the Usual Suspects.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13This will, however, come at a cost.
0:18:13 > 0:18:18Usual Suspects, I'll now ask you how well you think Tommy did, if you want to help and what it'll cost.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22- Who would you like to hear from? - I'd like to know what Pete thinks.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26You've definitely got one wrong, Tommy, and possibly another.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30But I'm not confident enough to come down and help, mate.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33- Ruling yourself out?- I am indeed.
0:18:33 > 0:18:38- And Rachael?- I'm agreeing with Pete. There's definitely one wrong.
0:18:38 > 0:18:45There's a possible second. I think between us we could probably get all six right,
0:18:45 > 0:18:50so I'm going to offer to come down, but for £6,000.
0:18:50 > 0:18:55So Rachael would like to come down and help for £6,000 of the £8,000 that you currently have
0:18:55 > 0:19:00as a prize fund. Would you like to negotiate or hear from Cheryl?
0:19:00 > 0:19:05- I'd like to haggle with Rachael. - How about we go five for me and three for you?
0:19:05 > 0:19:09Can we make it 4½ and 3½?
0:19:09 > 0:19:13- 4½ to me?- Yes. - Yes, go on.
0:19:13 > 0:19:18- You don't want to hear from Cheryl? - She doesn't look overly confident.
0:19:18 > 0:19:22- No!- Do you want to negotiate, Cheryl?- No!
0:19:22 > 0:19:26Not interested. Thanks. I just thought I'd check.
0:19:26 > 0:19:32OK, Rachael for £4,500 of the £8,000 prize fund, please come and play Perfection.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34OK.
0:19:35 > 0:19:43OK, Tommy, if you achieve perfection it will cost you £4,500 of your potential prize fund of £8,000.
0:19:43 > 0:19:49- Rachael, you've now forfeited your chance to play in the next game. This is your only shot.- OK.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52Have you made the right decision?
0:19:52 > 0:19:56Here are the final round statements. All six answers are now unlocked.
0:19:56 > 0:20:02- Rachael, which answers do you want Tommy to change?- E struck me as one that we could change.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06I was doing research when I bought a dog recently
0:20:06 > 0:20:10and we needed ones that were anti-allergenic. I'm allergic.
0:20:10 > 0:20:16- A poodle is one, so we looked at poodle mixes.- Ah.- I'm fairly confident I'd go with that
0:20:16 > 0:20:21as being a true breed of cross-breed dog.
0:20:21 > 0:20:28And also perhaps A, although I wasn't sure how confident you were on A.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32I can't actually think of anything that bad that happened in 2001.
0:20:32 > 0:20:37- Yeah, OK.- So are there any changes you'd like to make?
0:20:37 > 0:20:41I'll definitely change E, in that case, from false to true.
0:20:41 > 0:20:46E changes from false to true. Anything else before you close up?
0:20:46 > 0:20:50- I think I'll...leave it as it is. - Yeah, OK.
0:20:50 > 0:20:56- Lock it all in as it is?- Yeah. - Thank you. All those answers locked in as they are.
0:20:56 > 0:21:01OK, £8,000 at stake. £3,500 to Tommy and £4,500 to Rachael. Six answers away.
0:21:01 > 0:21:06Let's find out if you have achieved perfection.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08Let's deal with the one you changed.
0:21:08 > 0:21:15This way you get to find out if it was worth bringing Rachael down or whether she's ruined it for you.
0:21:15 > 0:21:20No pressure. A bich-poo is a type of cross-breed dog.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22Tommy, you thought this was false.
0:21:22 > 0:21:29Rachael, having done some research, decided this might be true and encouraged you to change that.
0:21:29 > 0:21:34So, if it turns red, Rachael's ruined it for you.
0:21:34 > 0:21:40If it turns green, you would be going nowhere towards the cash without her.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43So is it true or false?
0:21:46 > 0:21:48True!
0:21:50 > 0:21:54- Phew! OK.- It's a cross between a Bichon Frise and a Poodle,
0:21:54 > 0:21:58exactly as you said, Rachael. Very well played.
0:21:58 > 0:22:02Goulash, let's do that next. It's the name of a Hungarian stew.
0:22:02 > 0:22:07Tommy, you thought this was true. Is it true or false?
0:22:08 > 0:22:10It is true. Very well done.
0:22:10 > 0:22:15Two out of two. Let's go back up to the top.
0:22:15 > 0:22:19The Queen's "annus horribilis" was in 2001.
0:22:19 > 0:22:23Tommy, you said it was false. Rachael agreed with you.
0:22:23 > 0:22:30Is that true or false? You need it to turn red to get you halfway to the money.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32It is false.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40She used the term in a speech in November, 1992.
0:22:40 > 0:22:47It was actually the year that Charles and Diana separated and Andrew and Sarah separated
0:22:47 > 0:22:51and Windsor Castle burned down. So...
0:22:51 > 0:22:55We have now Marie Curie was born in France.
0:22:55 > 0:23:01Tommy, you thought this was true. Rachael agreed with you that it was true. If this turns green,
0:23:01 > 0:23:06you are just two away from the £8,000 split between you.
0:23:06 > 0:23:12Marie Curie was born in France. Is that true or false? You need it to turn green.
0:23:12 > 0:23:18It's false! She was actually born in Warsaw.
0:23:18 > 0:23:23- Didn't know that at all. - So, unfortunately, that means you failed to achieve perfection
0:23:23 > 0:23:29and you will not be going home with the money. Perhaps you can still achieve perfection at home.
0:23:29 > 0:23:35The first Miss World contest was held in the 1950s. You said true, Tommy. Is it true or false?
0:23:35 > 0:23:42Yeah, it is true. Becky Thatcher is the love interest of Tom Sawyer. True or false?
0:23:42 > 0:23:46Actually, that's true as well. So in the end, four right, two wrong.
0:23:46 > 0:23:51Brave to come down, Rachael. Bad luck, both of you.
0:23:51 > 0:23:59Great news for the Usual Suspects. The prize fund rolls over and one of you could be playing for £9,000!
0:24:03 > 0:24:10Great news for them, but Tommy and Rachael, you failed to achieve perfection and go with nothing.
0:24:10 > 0:24:16- I hope you enjoyed it. - Yeah, it was fun.- Great fun. - Let's hear it for Rachael and Tommy!
0:24:19 > 0:24:23Well, it's now time to meet the next Usual Suspects.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27Usual Suspects, introduce yourselves.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30Hi, my name's April. I'm from London and I'm a student.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34Hi. My name's Russell, from London, and I'm a part-time lorry driver.
0:24:34 > 0:24:40Welcome to the two of you and best of luck as we find out who's been randomly picked to play.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48Pete, it's you! Please come and play Perfection.
0:24:49 > 0:24:56- Pete, welcome to the game.- Thank you.- Can you explain what you were thinking when you bought that shirt?
0:24:56 > 0:25:04Well, what I was thinking is I'm a guitar teacher, it seems quite appropriate for the job.
0:25:04 > 0:25:09- You're a very keen quizzer.- I am. - Didn't you hold a title at one stage?- I did.
0:25:09 > 0:25:16- I was the City of York quiz league individual champion.- I wonder if that is frightening our Usual Suspects.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18We have a champion in our midst.
0:25:18 > 0:25:22Welcome to the show. It's now you versus the Usual Suspects.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26Here's the good news. As nobody has won the last eight games,
0:25:26 > 0:25:31the prize fund currently stands at £9,000.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35Well, that must be good news. What would you spend £9,000 on?
0:25:35 > 0:25:40Well, I've always really fancied a road trip through Texas.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45A lot of the music I really love comes from Texas. I'd like to go.
0:25:45 > 0:25:50Well, good luck. Three rounds and a final. Usual Suspects, we'll switch you off.
0:25:50 > 0:25:54As soon as Pete makes a mistake, you'll be back.
0:25:54 > 0:25:58- Pete, are you ready?- I am. - Then let's play Perfection.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Round 1. Your 45 seconds start now.
0:26:06 > 0:26:13- That is my youngest daughter's favourite song, so I'm pretty confident that that is true.- True.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22- I don't know why, but I feel that's true as well.- True.
0:26:26 > 0:26:33- No. I think it was Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote that. I'll go false. - False. And finally...
0:26:37 > 0:26:41Ooh, I'm really not sure about that one.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45- I'll go true on that one.- True. And you've answered all four.
0:26:45 > 0:26:50- Well, to me, that sounded like a good round.- It didn't sound bad.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53Not so sure about the last one.
0:26:53 > 0:26:59Before we reveal exactly how well you've done, it's time for us to bring back the Usual Suspects.
0:26:59 > 0:27:03There are Pete's answers. Cheryl, has he achieved perfection?
0:27:03 > 0:27:08It's quite possible. The hoopoe I'm not really sure of, but the others are right.
0:27:08 > 0:27:14- Russell, what do you make of them? - I think he might have one wrong, but I think the hoopoe's a bird.
0:27:14 > 0:27:18- Which one do you think is wrong? - Louisa May Alcott.
0:27:18 > 0:27:24- OK. April, can you see anything wrong with those answers? - I agree. I think C is wrong.
0:27:24 > 0:27:30OK, Pete. You need to have answered perfectly to win the round. Let's find out how many are correct.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41Pete, congratulations! You have achieved perfection!
0:27:44 > 0:27:47- That's a cracking start. - Yeah, very pleased.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49Let's look in more detail.
0:27:49 > 0:27:55The A Team was a UK hit single for Ed Sheeran. We now know it is true.
0:27:55 > 0:28:01The hoopoe is a type of bird. You said that was true and it is...true.
0:28:01 > 0:28:07Louisa May Alcott wrote Uncle Tom's Cabin. You said false and it is, of course, false. Who was it?
0:28:07 > 0:28:13- Harriet Beecher Stowe.- Absolutely right. The Great Fire of London burned for over two days.
0:28:13 > 0:28:17And it is, of course, true.
0:28:17 > 0:28:23So, Pete, you've made winning the prize fund a lot easier. This is your final board.
0:28:23 > 0:28:27These six spaces need to be filled with subject categories.
0:28:27 > 0:28:33Here are your categories, starting with Dickens and on to Golf with many more in-between.
0:28:33 > 0:28:37You've earned the right to choose two to add to the board.
0:28:37 > 0:28:42- Which two would you like? - I think I'd go with...
0:28:42 > 0:28:46- Roxy Music. - Roxy Music goes into the final.
0:28:46 > 0:28:50- And Peter Kay. - And Peter Kay goes across.
0:28:50 > 0:28:56Usual Suspects, you didn't get a look in. We'll see you in the next round. For now, I'll switch you off.
0:28:56 > 0:29:03Pete, now they have gone, which of those categories on the left would you like to avoid?
0:29:03 > 0:29:08Golf, I think. I'm not a big fan of golf.
0:29:08 > 0:29:12And Vehicles is one of those that could be anything.
0:29:12 > 0:29:17- Maybe those two. - You've made a great start. If you're ready, we'll continue.- Indeed.
0:29:17 > 0:29:20Let's play Round 2.
0:29:22 > 0:29:25Your 45 seconds start now.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32Em, I know it's a song by David Bowie.
0:29:32 > 0:29:38- I don't know if it's a book, so I'll go false on that.- False.
0:29:41 > 0:29:46- They are indeed in Italy. Yes, I'll go true, please.- True.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Oh, that's a tough one.
0:29:52 > 0:29:59- I remember Terry Wogan and Les Dawson, but not Michael Aspel. I'll go false.- False. And finally...
0:30:03 > 0:30:08- Em, I believe that's true. I'll go true, please.- True.
0:30:09 > 0:30:14- Getting slightly worried on time, but you kept an eye on it.- Yes.
0:30:14 > 0:30:18- Didn't feel quite as positive, but not bad?- Hmm...
0:30:18 > 0:30:2050/50 I think on that one.
0:30:20 > 0:30:25They're my best guesses, but they are guesses, mostly.
0:30:25 > 0:30:32Time to bring back the Usual Suspects. These are the four statements and Pete's answers.
0:30:32 > 0:30:37- Russell, has he achieved perfection? - Yeah, I think he has this time, as it goes.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41- April, do you agree? - Yeah, I think he's got perfection.
0:30:41 > 0:30:46- Cheryl, can you see anything at all wrong there?- No, perfection.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50- A vote of confidence!- Indeed.- Let's find out how many are correct.
0:30:56 > 0:31:00Three out of four! A good score, but not perfection.
0:31:00 > 0:31:06You've let the Usual Suspects in. Can you steal this round? You see Pete's answers.
0:31:06 > 0:31:11You need to change one answer, but which one could it be?
0:31:11 > 0:31:14Michael Aspel wasn't Blankety Blank.
0:31:14 > 0:31:19- Ice hockey is definitely four quarters.- I didn't know that.
0:31:19 > 0:31:23He did a song Ashes to Ashes. I don't know if there's a book.
0:31:23 > 0:31:27- I'm pretty sure the Apennines are in Italy.- Yeah.
0:31:27 > 0:31:32- So do you want to go for A?- A. - Can we change A from false to true?
0:31:32 > 0:31:37A changes from false to true, leaving B, C and D as answered.
0:31:37 > 0:31:44Let's find out the correct answers. Ashes to Ashes is a book by David Bowie. True or false?
0:31:44 > 0:31:50It's false! I'm afraid you had the chance to steal the round, but failed to achieve perfection.
0:31:50 > 0:31:55Can you still achieve it at home? Let's go through the others.
0:31:55 > 0:32:02Ashes to Ashes is a book by... Freddie Flintoff, talking about his experience in the Ashes.
0:32:02 > 0:32:09Which one should you have changed? The Apennine mountains are in Italy. Is that true or false?
0:32:09 > 0:32:14That's true. Michael Aspel was a host of Blankety Blank. True or false?
0:32:14 > 0:32:22That is false. Terry Wogan, Les Dawson and Lily Savage all hosted Blankety Blank.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24So it's got to be this last one.
0:32:24 > 0:32:27Is that true or false?
0:32:27 > 0:32:30Yeah, that's actually false.
0:32:30 > 0:32:34It's divided into three 20-minute periods. Let's see the board.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37Because neither side won that round,
0:32:37 > 0:32:42the two categories will now be carried over to the next round,
0:32:42 > 0:32:48so four categories will be on offer. Usual Suspects, I'll switch you off. We will see you in Round 3.
0:32:48 > 0:32:55- With four categories on offer, it would be a cracking one to win. - It would.- For a clean sweep.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58Let's play Round 3.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02Your 45 seconds start now.
0:33:06 > 0:33:11- No, that's false. It's in San Francisco Bay.- False.
0:33:16 > 0:33:20- Yes, I think that's true, yes. - True.
0:33:24 > 0:33:25Em...
0:33:25 > 0:33:30- I seem to recall that's true as well. Yes, true.- True. And finally...
0:33:35 > 0:33:42- Indeed they did. Very easily, I thought. True. - Thanks. You've answered all four.
0:33:42 > 0:33:46That felt very confident from you, like the first round.
0:33:46 > 0:33:51- Yeah.- A chance of perfection? - I think I've got a chance.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54Time to bring back the Usual Suspects.
0:33:54 > 0:34:01These were the four statements and Pete's answers. April, has he achieved perfection?
0:34:01 > 0:34:06- I think he has, Nick.- That's a bit of a pain, isn't it?- Yeah!- Russell?
0:34:06 > 0:34:11There's three I know, one I don't. I'll say he's got perfection.
0:34:11 > 0:34:17- Cheryl?- He's good, yeah. Perfection. - Another vote of confidence. Could you have perfection again?
0:34:17 > 0:34:20Let's find out how many are correct.
0:34:26 > 0:34:30Congratulations, Pete. You have achieved perfection again.
0:34:33 > 0:34:40Let's look in more detail, shall we? Alcatraz prison is in Los Angeles. You said that was false.
0:34:40 > 0:34:44- Where did you say it was? - An island in San Francisco Bay.
0:34:44 > 0:34:50Exactly right. Ramen is a dish of noodles served in a broth. We know that to be now true.
0:34:50 > 0:34:55The TV sitcom Bread was set in Liverpool. It is, of course, true.
0:34:55 > 0:35:02And Spain won the Euro 2012 football championship. You said true and, of course, that's true as well.
0:35:02 > 0:35:08Let's look at your final board. The two subject categories on there were chosen by you.
0:35:08 > 0:35:14You've earned the right to choose the next four categories, including two that rolled over,
0:35:14 > 0:35:18making a clean sweep in the final of your own choice. What do you want?
0:35:18 > 0:35:23- I'll go with Poets, please. - Poets goes in.
0:35:24 > 0:35:32- I'll try Dickens.- Dickens. - I'll have a go at Welsh food. - Welsh food goes into the final.
0:35:32 > 0:35:38- And Wine, please. - And Wine makes it into the final. We now know our six final categories.
0:35:43 > 0:35:50All chosen by you, Pete. It's time to switch off the Usual Suspects for the last time. Cheerio.
0:35:50 > 0:35:54Pete, for £9,000, it's time to play the final.
0:35:57 > 0:36:03Pete, this is the all-important final. If you achieve perfection, you could be leaving with £9,000.
0:36:03 > 0:36:11If you fail, you leave with nothing, which is great for the Usual Suspects who could play for £10,000.
0:36:11 > 0:36:13Let's play the final round.
0:36:16 > 0:36:22Here are your final six categories. You need to answer all six correctly to win the £9,000.
0:36:22 > 0:36:26There is no time limit, but once you answer, it's locked in.
0:36:26 > 0:36:31- Ready?- I am.- Then let's reveal your first statement. True or false?
0:36:39 > 0:36:41That, I'm sure, is true.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43True.
0:36:51 > 0:36:58Brian Potter is the character from Phoenix Nights, which is Peter Kay, so that also would be true.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00True.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08Ah...
0:37:08 > 0:37:13Now that's a tricky one because I believe his grandson did.
0:37:13 > 0:37:19He was called Lionel Tennyson. He once batted one-handed and made 60-odd.
0:37:19 > 0:37:25- So did Alfred, Lord Tennyson... I don't think he did. I'll go false on that one.- False.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38I'm not sure about that one.
0:37:41 > 0:37:45- No, it doesn't ring true for me. I'll go false on that one.- False.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55Bara brith...
0:37:55 > 0:37:59No, I don't think it is. I think that might be a type of bread,
0:37:59 > 0:38:04- but I'm going false there. - False. And finally...
0:38:11 > 0:38:14I believe she is, yes. I'll go true.
0:38:14 > 0:38:19True. And with that, Pete, those answers are locked in.
0:38:19 > 0:38:24- Which ones are you unsure of? Or are you happy?- Um...
0:38:24 > 0:38:29- D is the one I'm not so sure about. - Let's bring back the Usual Suspects to see what they have to say.
0:38:29 > 0:38:35Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements and Pete's answers.
0:38:35 > 0:38:40Your answers are now locked in, but if you think you made a mistake you can unlock them
0:38:40 > 0:38:45with the help of the Usual Suspects. This will come at a cost. Who would you like first?
0:38:45 > 0:38:50- I think I'd like to hear from Cheryl first.- How do you think you've done?
0:38:50 > 0:38:57I'm fairly confident, actually. There's one I'm dodgy on, but fairly confident on the rest.
0:38:57 > 0:39:01There's only one I'm a bit 50/50 on. I wonder if it's the same one.
0:39:01 > 0:39:06But it might be completely wrong. I'll have to say I'm out. Sorry.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09Can we have a word with Russell?
0:39:09 > 0:39:15I can see three right, but there's three I don't know. I wouldn't want to risk it.
0:39:15 > 0:39:20- April? - There's two I'm not sure about.
0:39:20 > 0:39:22So I'd have to say I'm out.
0:39:22 > 0:39:25None of them want to help you. You're on your own.
0:39:25 > 0:39:32£9,000 at stake, six answers away. Let's find out if you have achieved perfection.
0:39:32 > 0:39:39All right, best of luck. Bryan Ferry is a founder member of Roxy Music. You said true.
0:39:39 > 0:39:44It needs to turn green. If it does, it's a good start on the way to £9,000.
0:39:44 > 0:39:49If it turns red, you've fallen at the first hurdle.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52It is true. Very good.
0:39:54 > 0:39:59So Peter Kay created the comedy character Brian Potter. You thought true,
0:39:59 > 0:40:07- a character from which programme? - Phoenix Nights.- If you're right, this will turn green. True or false?
0:40:07 > 0:40:11- It is true. Very well done. That's a good start.- Great.
0:40:11 > 0:40:16This next one's interesting. Alfred, Lord Tennyson, played cricket for England.
0:40:16 > 0:40:22- I thought people wouldn't know much about that. You knew that his grandson...?- I think so.
0:40:22 > 0:40:28Played for England and played one-handed once and got 60 runs. That's some knowledge to have!
0:40:28 > 0:40:32But you thought Tennyson didn't play cricket for England. You said false.
0:40:32 > 0:40:37You need this to turn red to get you halfway to the £9,000.

0:41:38 > 0:41:40It's true.
0:41:44 > 0:41:51Five out of six. Do you know what? In this entire game so far, you've only got one question wrong.
0:41:51 > 0:41:55Are you going to leave with only one wrong and walk away with £9,000,
0:41:55 > 0:42:01or will it be two wrong and the money rolls over for the Usual Suspects?
0:42:01 > 0:42:06The Artful Dodger's real name is Charley Bates. You thought false.
