Welcome to the quiz that demands perfection.

0:00:020:00:03

These four contestants are hoping their knowledge is flawless,

0:00:030:00:07

because one single mistake could give the game away.

0:00:070:00:09

This is Perfection.

0:00:090:00:12

APPLAUSE

0:00:190:00:21

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

0:00:240:00:29

Behind me are the contestants, the Usual Suspects, in our isolation room.

0:00:290:00:33

We'll find out which one has been randomly selected to join me to play Perfection.

0:00:330:00:38

They will face a series of true-or-false statements. For example, if I said...

0:00:380:00:43

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

0:00:450:00:48

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

0:00:480:00:51

Answering true or false might seem easy,

0:00:510:00:54

but if the contestants get an answer wrong,

0:00:540:00:56

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

0:00:560:01:01

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

0:01:010:01:05

I'm Paul, I'm from Kingston in Surrey,

0:01:050:01:08

I'm a freelance lecturer and this is my first game.

0:01:080:01:11

I'm Deborah, I'm from Huddersfield, I'm a podiatrist and this is my third game.

0:01:110:01:16

I'm Cal, I'm from Aberdeen, I'm a contract specialist and this is also my third game.

0:01:160:01:21

I'm Julia from Southampton, I'm a retired teacher and this is my tenth game.

0:01:210:01:26

Welcome to you all, especially Paul, our newbie.

0:01:260:01:29

Best of luck, as we find out which one of you has been randomly picked to play.

0:01:290:01:34

Deborah, it's you.

0:01:370:01:39

Please come and join us to play Perfection.

0:01:390:01:41

Deborah, welcome to the game. It's you versus the Usual Suspects. They're now your enemies.

0:01:430:01:48

Their job is to stop you winning. Your failure means the money rolls over to the next game,

0:01:480:01:54

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

0:01:540:01:57

That's their aim. Every game is worth £1,000.

0:01:570:02:01

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

0:02:010:02:04

so the prize fund currently stands at £4,000.

0:02:040:02:08

What would you spend it on?

0:02:080:02:09

It'd be lovely to say I'd just fritter it away

0:02:090:02:12

on allsorts of loveliness for me and my two girls,

0:02:120:02:15

but, er, a little bit of frittering, but stuff needs doing on the house, as well.

0:02:150:02:20

-You should do a bit of frittering.

-Life's too short to not fritter!

-Exactly.

0:02:200:02:24

OK, here's how it works... You play three rounds and a final.

0:02:240:02:27

Every round you achieve perfection makes the final easier for you.

0:02:270:02:31

If your performance is less than perfect,

0:02:310:02:33

the Usual Suspects will have a chance to steal the round,

0:02:330:02:36

making the final harder for you.

0:02:360:02:39

Usual Suspects, we're going to switch you off so you can't see or hear anything.

0:02:390:02:44

Each round consists of four true-or-false statements.

0:02:440:02:46

You'll be answering against the clock.

0:02:460:02:48

You'll only have 45 seconds. Once you've given your first answer, it'll be locked in.

0:02:480:02:52

-Do you understand?

-I do.

0:02:520:02:54

-OK, ready?

-Yes, thank you.

0:02:540:02:56

-Let's play Perfection.

-APPLAUSE

0:02:560:02:58

Round 1. Your 45 seconds starts now.

0:03:000:03:03

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

-True.

0:03:080:03:13

-That's false.

-False.

0:03:170:03:21

-True.

-True. And finally...

0:03:240:03:27

-He's not. That's false.

-False.

0:03:300:03:33

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

0:03:330:03:36

-I'm not sure about the first one.

-Before we reveal how you've done,

0:03:360:03:40

it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

0:03:400:03:42

-They'll now be able to hear you.

-Yes.

0:03:420:03:44

Hello, Usual Suspects.

0:03:440:03:46

These were the four statements and Deborah's answers.

0:03:460:03:49

Let's start with you, Julia. Has she achieved perfection?

0:03:490:03:52

I know she's got three right. I have no idea on A.

0:03:520:03:58

-Cal, can you shed any light on this?

-I think she has got A right.

0:03:590:04:02

I think she has got perfection.

0:04:020:04:05

-Paul, what do you think?

-I think she's got perfection. I agree with Cal.

0:04:050:04:10

-That's a huge vote of confidence for you, Deborah.

-It is, isn't it?

0:04:100:04:13

You need to have answered perfectly to have won the round. Let's see how many are correct.

0:04:130:04:19

-Yay!

-Congratulations, Deborah, you have achieved perfection.

0:04:240:04:29

APPLAUSE

0:04:290:04:32

Let's have a look at the answers.

0:04:320:04:33

If a statement is true, it turns green. If it's false, it will turn red.

0:04:330:04:37

Jennifer Lawrence starred in Silver Linings Playbook. It's true.

0:04:370:04:40

She won an Oscar for her performance in that.

0:04:400:04:43

David Cameron's annual government salary is over £1m. You said false.

0:04:430:04:48

It is, of course, false.

0:04:480:04:51

It's £142,500 a year.

0:04:510:04:55

Tendons attach muscles to bones.

0:04:550:04:57

You said true. It is, of course, true.

0:04:570:05:00

Beau Brummell is in Pride and Prejudice.

0:05:000:05:02

You were sure that it wasn't and you are absolutely right.

0:05:020:05:08

He was a famous dandy in Regency England.

0:05:080:05:11

Definitely not a fictional character in Pride and Prejudice.

0:05:110:05:14

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

0:05:140:05:19

Here's how... This is your final board.

0:05:190:05:23

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

0:05:230:05:26

Here are the final-round categories,

0:05:260:05:28

starting with US Geography, heading through Spices, Slade, Art,

0:05:280:05:32

onto Cricketers, with many more in between.

0:05:320:05:34

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

0:05:340:05:38

Which two do you fancy?

0:05:380:05:40

I'll probably go for Spices and Fairy Tales.

0:05:400:05:45

Spices goes into the final,

0:05:450:05:46

as does Fairy Tales.

0:05:460:05:49

Usual Suspects, we'll see you in the next round where you might get a look-in.

0:05:490:05:53

Away they go.

0:05:530:05:54

-We can talk about that list a little bit more.

-Yes.

0:05:540:05:57

-Ones that you really don't fancy in there?

-Art, possibly...

0:05:570:06:02

Cricketers, definitely not!

0:06:020:06:03

And ones that you'd quite like to choose yourself?

0:06:030:06:06

-Possibly Geography, Sci-Fi, '80s TV.

-All right, then.

0:06:060:06:11

-Great start to the game.

-Yes.

0:06:110:06:13

-Relaxed a bit more?

-A little bit!

-Shall we get on?

-Go on, then.

0:06:130:06:16

-Let's play Round 2.

-APPLAUSE

0:06:160:06:19

Your 45 seconds start now.

0:06:200:06:23

-I'd say that's false.

-False.

0:06:290:06:33

-False.

-False.

0:06:380:06:41

It was definitely held before then, so that's false.

0:06:450:06:48

False. And with time to spare...

0:06:480:06:50

Erm... I've never heard it called the futtock.

0:06:540:06:57

Er, I'd say false.

0:06:570:06:59

False. And with that, you've answered all four statements comfortably in the time.

0:06:590:07:03

The first two I'm not so sure on, to be honest.

0:07:030:07:06

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

0:07:060:07:11

Usual Suspects, these were the four statements and Deborah's answers.

0:07:110:07:15

-Paul, how has she done this time?

-I think she's done well again,

0:07:150:07:18

but I would change B from false to true.

0:07:180:07:21

I think Prince Rainier is the reigning Prince of Monaco.

0:07:210:07:24

-Julia, what do you think?

-I think she's got them all right,

0:07:240:07:27

that's presuming that Prince Rainier has died.

0:07:270:07:31

-Right!

-LAUGHTER

0:07:310:07:34

It'll come as a huge shock to him if he hasn't!

0:07:340:07:36

OK, Deborah,

0:07:360:07:38

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

0:07:380:07:42

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

0:07:470:07:51

You've let your enemies into the game.

0:07:510:07:54

This is your opportunity. Can you steal the round?

0:07:540:07:57

You need to change just one answer. Which one's it going to be?

0:07:570:08:01

You had a gut feeling for Prince Rainier.

0:08:010:08:03

-Are we sure he's dead?

-He might still be alive, mightn't he?

0:08:030:08:07

-How confident are you on the others?

-Did Roseanne stand for US Presidency?

0:08:070:08:10

-It's too extreme.

-And too much money needed.

0:08:100:08:13

-Shall we go for B, then?

-Let's go for B.

0:08:130:08:16

Could we change B from false to true, please?

0:08:160:08:19

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

0:08:190:08:25

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

0:08:250:08:29

Roseanne Barr stood for the US Presidency in 2012.

0:08:290:08:33

Is that true or false?

0:08:330:08:36

It's true! She was the official candidate for the Peace and Freedom Party,

0:08:360:08:42

that well-known party in American politics!

0:08:420:08:45

Usual Suspects, you had the chance to steal the round from Deborah,

0:08:450:08:49

but you failed to achieve perfection.

0:08:490:08:51

I wonder whether you can still achieve perfection at home.

0:08:510:08:54

Prince Rainier is the reigning Prince of Monaco.

0:08:540:08:56

Is that false or true?

0:08:560:08:59

It's actually false.

0:08:590:09:02

He was succeeded by his son, Prince Albert, in 2005.

0:09:020:09:07

The first Eurovision Song Contest was held in 1976.

0:09:070:09:11

True or false?

0:09:110:09:14

Yes, that's false. 1956.

0:09:140:09:17

And the rear of end of a ship is known as the futtock.

0:09:170:09:21

True or false?

0:09:210:09:23

That's false. The futtock's the middle timbers of the ship.

0:09:230:09:26

So a ship does have a futtock, but just not where we'd placed it!

0:09:260:09:30

Let's have a look at the board.

0:09:300:09:32

So two categories on there

0:09:320:09:35

chosen so far by Deborah.

0:09:350:09:38

The categories to be chosen will be carried over to the next round,

0:09:380:09:41

meaning four categories will be on offer.

0:09:410:09:44

Usual Suspects, we'll see you in Round 3. Cheerio.

0:09:440:09:48

Away they go.

0:09:480:09:50

-With four categories on offer, it's a big one.

-Yes.

0:09:500:09:52

-Let's play Round 3.

-APPLAUSE

0:09:520:09:54

Your 45 seconds start now.

0:09:580:10:00

-That could be true.

-So, you're saying...?

0:10:040:10:07

-True.

-True.

0:10:070:10:10

-True.

-True.

-I think he was, yes.

0:10:130:10:16

Possibly.

0:10:210:10:23

-Er, false.

-False.

0:10:230:10:26

-Er, true.

-True.

0:10:300:10:32

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

0:10:320:10:36

The one from Plymouth, I've no idea.

0:10:360:10:39

Before we reveal how well you've done,

0:10:390:10:41

it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

0:10:410:10:44

Usual Suspects, these were the four statements and Deborah's answers.

0:10:440:10:47

Cal, has she achieved perfection?

0:10:470:10:50

The top three I think are right,

0:10:500:10:52

but I'm not sure on the tiger's stripe pattern.

0:10:520:10:54

That's one for David Attenborough, not for myself.

0:10:540:10:57

Or possibly for Julia. Do you know about tiger stripe patterns?

0:10:570:11:02

As a science teacher I should, but no, I don't know.

0:11:020:11:05

It sounds really sensible that it should be the same.

0:11:050:11:08

-And the rest of them?

-I think she's done well again.

0:11:080:11:11

-A vote of confidence for you there, with the possible exception of tiger stripes.

-Yes.

0:11:110:11:16

You need to have answered perfectly to have won the round.

0:11:160:11:19

Let's find out how many are correct.

0:11:190:11:22

Three out of four again! It's a good score,

0:11:270:11:30

but it's not quite good enough to keep the Usual Suspects out.

0:11:300:11:34

Your enemies are in the game. Can you steal the round?

0:11:340:11:37

You can see Deborah's answers. You need to change one, but which?

0:11:370:11:40

-What do you think, guys?

-Do you know anything at all about any of them?

0:11:400:11:44

The instinct was tiger stripe, wasn't it?

0:11:440:11:46

Tiger stripe. I don't know why, but it just didn't fit for me.

0:11:460:11:50

OK. D we are settled on, please. If we could change that from true to false.

0:11:500:11:54

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

0:11:540:12:00

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

0:12:000:12:03

Uma Thurman's father was once a Buddhist monk.

0:12:030:12:06

Is that true or false?

0:12:060:12:09

It is true.

0:12:090:12:11

John McEnroe was known as 'Superbrat'. Is it true or false?

0:12:110:12:15

It is true. This is where it gets interesting.

0:12:150:12:19

The term "Janner" can mean someone from Plymouth. True or false?

0:12:190:12:23

It is true. Oh, dear, Usual Suspects!

0:12:230:12:28

You had the chance to steal the round again, but you failed to find perfection.

0:12:280:12:32

A "janner",

0:12:320:12:34

to use the accent, which it's how it's said,

0:12:340:12:37

can mean someone from Plymouth.

0:12:370:12:39

Finally, a tiger's stripe pattern is also found on its skin.

0:12:390:12:42

Is that true or false?

0:12:420:12:44

That's actually true.

0:12:440:12:46

Let's have a look at the final board,

0:12:460:12:49

which currently only has two categories on it,

0:12:490:12:52

both chosen by Deborah.

0:12:520:12:55

Nobody managed to win Round 3, meaning we still have four blank spaces to be filled.

0:12:550:12:59

How do we do it? To fill those spaces, you will take it in turns to choose a category.

0:12:590:13:04

Deborah, as the single player, you get to choose first. Which would you like to add?

0:13:040:13:08

I think I'll go with 1980s TV.

0:13:080:13:10

1980s TV becomes the third category in the final.

0:13:100:13:13

-Usual Suspects, pick a category.

-I'm thinking Cricketers!

0:13:130:13:17

-Yes.

-Cricketers goes into the final. Deborah, your last pickety-pick.

0:13:170:13:22

US Geography.

0:13:220:13:24

US Geography goes into the final.

0:13:240:13:26

And finally, Usual Suspects, round it off for us.

0:13:260:13:29

-Gazza?

-Chemistry.

0:13:290:13:30

Is it "Gazza" as in Gascoigne, or Gaza?

0:13:300:13:33

-Gazza as in Gazza.

-Yes.

-Maybe that's the one.

0:13:330:13:36

Could we have Gazza, please?

0:13:360:13:38

Gazza goes across into the final. Have you chosen this, Julia,

0:13:380:13:42

because you have strong knowledge in this area

0:13:420:13:44

-and might be able to come and help?

-If he'd played for Chelsea, I would!

0:13:440:13:48

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

0:13:480:13:52

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

0:13:580:14:03

-They can't hear you. What do you make of that?

-Oh, Cricketers...!

0:14:030:14:07

-You wanted to avoid that, didn't you?

-Yes.

0:14:070:14:11

If Gazza's the footballer,

0:14:110:14:14

unless it's his gossip column stuff, I haven't got a clue.

0:14:140:14:18

Well, Deborah, for £4,000,

0:14:180:14:21

-it's time to play the final.

-APPLAUSE

0:14:210:14:23

Deborah, if you can achieve perfection,

0:14:250:14:27

you could be leaving with a prize fund of £4,000.

0:14:270:14:30

If you fail, it's great news for the Usual Suspects,

0:14:300:14:33

as one of them could be playing for a rollover of £5,000 on the next game.

0:14:330:14:37

Let's play the final round.

0:14:370:14:39

APPLAUSE

0:14:390:14:42

Deborah, here are your final six categories.

0:14:420:14:44

You must answer all six statements correctly if you want to win the £4,000.

0:14:440:14:48

There is no time limit, but once you've given an answer, it's locked in.

0:14:480:14:53

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Let's reveal your first statement.

0:14:530:14:55

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

-OK.

0:14:550:14:59

Spices.

0:14:590:15:00

Yes, they definitely are.

0:15:050:15:07

-So, you're saying...?

-I'm really sure on that one. True.

0:15:070:15:10

-True.

-Yes.

0:15:100:15:12

Fairy Tales.

0:15:120:15:14

They were German.

0:15:180:15:20

Pierre's not a German name.

0:15:200:15:23

I would err on that being false.

0:15:230:15:28

-False.

-Yes.

0:15:280:15:29

1980s TV.

0:15:290:15:31

I think the Phantom Flan Flinger was on the other channel

0:15:360:15:40

and it was the Chris Tarrant programme.

0:15:400:15:43

I can't... Tiswas! That's it.

0:15:430:15:46

Erm... So that is false.

0:15:460:15:50

-False.

-Yes.

0:15:500:15:52

Cricketers.

0:15:520:15:54

I know that he did play football,

0:15:580:16:01

whether it was for Arsenal or not, I don't know.

0:16:010:16:04

-I'll say true on that.

-True.

0:16:040:16:08

US Geography.

0:16:080:16:10

By way of numbers, it's going to be between California and New York,

0:16:150:16:20

but I think California's probably got more

0:16:200:16:23

so I'll say true.

0:16:230:16:26

True.

0:16:260:16:28

And finally, Gazza.

0:16:280:16:30

I remember him crying,

0:16:360:16:38

whether it was at the World Cup or the European...

0:16:380:16:44

I'll go true with that.

0:16:440:16:47

-True.

-Yes.

0:16:470:16:49

-And with that, you've answered all the statements.

-Yes.

0:16:490:16:52

They're locked in. Which ones are you unsure of?

0:16:520:16:55

The only ones I'm really sure of are A and C.

0:16:550:16:57

The rest of them...

0:16:570:17:00

-..I don't know.

-All right.

-They're guesses.

0:17:000:17:03

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

0:17:030:17:06

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements and Deborah's answers.

0:17:060:17:11

Your answers are locked in. You can't change them by yourself.

0:17:110:17:14

If you think you've made a mistake, you can unlock the board. This will, however, come at a cost.

0:17:140:17:19

Usual Suspects, I'm going to ask you how well you think Deborah has done,

0:17:190:17:23

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

0:17:230:17:26

-Deborah, who would you like to hear from first?

-I think I'll go to Cal.

0:17:260:17:30

I know you've got one wrong.

0:17:300:17:31

-How confident are you?

-Reasonably confident, yes.

0:17:310:17:35

I just don't think that's enough for me.

0:17:350:17:38

-It needs to...

-There is £4,000 to play with, Cal.

0:17:380:17:41

I'm just not confident about the other questions. I've had a look at them again.

0:17:410:17:46

-No, I'm sorry.

-OK.

0:17:460:17:48

I'll ask Julia.

0:17:480:17:49

Well, I'm unsure of two of them,

0:17:490:17:52

but that is just unsure rather than knowing exactly,

0:17:520:17:56

-so I wouldn't be prepared to come down and help. Sorry.

-OK.

0:17:560:18:00

-Julia's ruled herself out.

-Yes. Paul?

0:18:000:18:03

I know for sure you've got one wrong,

0:18:030:18:07

but it's a tough set of questions so I don't feel comfortable coming down.

0:18:070:18:11

It looks like the Usual Suspects aren't willing to help, so you are on your own.

0:18:110:18:16

£4,000 at stake. Six answers away.

0:18:160:18:19

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

0:18:190:18:22

Let's get going. Cloves are the dried flower buds of tropical trees.

0:18:240:18:28

You said true. Is it true or false?

0:18:280:18:32

-It's true. Very well done.

-APPLAUSE

0:18:320:18:35

The Brothers Grimm were named Pierre and Gustave.

0:18:350:18:39

We need this to turn red.

0:18:390:18:40

Is it true or false?

0:18:400:18:43

-It's false. Very well done.

-APPLAUSE

0:18:430:18:47

Jacob and Wilhelm. And they were German.

0:18:470:18:49

The Phantom Flan Flinger appeared on Swap Shop.

0:18:490:18:52

This one, you were quite confident on, as well.

0:18:520:18:54

Yes. I think he was in a cage on Tiswas

0:18:540:18:58

and throwing custard pies at Chris Tarrant and Sally James.

0:18:580:19:01

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

0:19:010:19:05

Is it true or false?

0:19:050:19:07

It's false. Very well done.

0:19:070:19:09

He was indeed a character on Tiswas.

0:19:090:19:11

The cricketer Dennis Compton played football for Arsenal.

0:19:110:19:15

-You said that you knew he had played football as well as cricket.

-I'm fairly sure.

0:19:150:19:19

But who for, you weren't so sure.

0:19:190:19:21

You said true. We need this to turn green.

0:19:210:19:24

Is this true or false?

0:19:240:19:26

-It's true. Very well done.

-APPLAUSE

0:19:270:19:31

Wow. £4,000, four answers right. You need two more to get the money.

0:19:320:19:37

California is the most heavily-populated US state.

0:19:370:19:40

You said true. If you're right, this will turn green

0:19:400:19:42

and you'll be one away from the £4,000.

0:19:420:19:46

Is that true or false?

0:19:460:19:50

-It's turned green. It's true.

-APPLAUSE

0:19:510:19:55

Five out of six.

0:19:550:19:56

All on your own, five out of six.

0:19:560:20:00

Just one away now from the £4,000.

0:20:000:20:02

Gazza famously cried at the 1986 World Cup.

0:20:020:20:06

You said he definitely cried.

0:20:060:20:09

Was it at a European Cup final or a World Cup final?

0:20:090:20:13

You said true.

0:20:130:20:14

If you're right, this will turn green

0:20:140:20:17

and you'll be walking out of here with £4,000...

0:20:170:20:20

-Yes.

-..to fritter as you wish.

0:20:200:20:24

Is it true or false...

0:20:240:20:27

..for £4,000?

0:20:270:20:31

-It's false!

-No!

0:20:360:20:38

It was the Europeans! Oh!

0:20:380:20:42

-It was the 1990 World Cup.

-Oh!

0:20:420:20:47

-It was just the year that was wrong.

-Yes.

0:20:470:20:49

Ahh! I feel terrible for you.

0:20:490:20:51

You were searching their faces. You were looking at Cal, trying to work out...

0:20:510:20:55

-Did you know, Cal?

-Yes. That was the only one I knew!

0:20:550:20:58

-So you did know the one that was wrong.

-I should've come down!

0:20:580:21:03

To be fair, at least he gets to have another go.

0:21:030:21:05

Great news for you, Usual Suspects, the prize fund rolls over.

0:21:050:21:08

One of you could be playing for a total of £5,000.

0:21:080:21:13

APPLAUSE

0:21:130:21:16

-In your entire game, you only got three questions wrong.

-That's not bad!

0:21:160:21:20

I hope you enjoyed yourself.

0:21:200:21:22

-You go home with our thanks for being such a great contestant.

-It's a pleasure.

0:21:220:21:26

Thank you. APPLAUSE

0:21:260:21:28

That was close, but close just isn't good enough.

0:21:320:21:35

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

0:21:350:21:39

New Usual Suspect, please introduce yourself.

0:21:400:21:43

I'm Tara, I'm from Derbyshire and I'm a human nutrition student.

0:21:430:21:47

Welcome, Tara. Good luck to you all, as we now find out which one of you

0:21:470:21:50

has been randomly selected to play Perfection.

0:21:500:21:54

Paul, it's you.

0:21:570:21:58

Please come and play Perfection.

0:21:580:22:01

-Paul, welcome to the game.

-Thank you, Nick.

0:22:020:22:05

-You've had an interesting life. You were a stockbroker in San Francisco!

-For about five years.

0:22:050:22:10

-Did you enjoy that?

-I loved it.

0:22:100:22:12

Stockbrokers and people in the city aren't considered in a good light recently.

0:22:120:22:17

They haven't been recently but they used to be great!

0:22:170:22:21

What you need to work out now is how to walk away with a load of cash.

0:22:210:22:25

It's you versus the Usual Suspects. They're now very definitely your enemies.

0:22:250:22:29

They may be smiling at you, but given the chance

0:22:290:22:32

they're going to tuck you up like a kipper!

0:22:320:22:34

Nobody's won the last four games,

0:22:340:22:36

so the prize fund currently stands at £5,000.

0:22:360:22:40

APPLAUSE

0:22:400:22:42

-What would you spend it on?

-A trip to Peru with the kids,

0:22:420:22:45

do the Inca Trail, Machu Picchu,

0:22:450:22:47

and there's some great surfing there, as well.

0:22:470:22:49

-Are you a surfer?

-Boogie boarder.

-Well, good luck with that.

0:22:490:22:52

Three rounds and a final to come.

0:22:520:22:55

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

0:22:550:22:57

As soon as Paul makes a mistake, you will be back in the game.

0:22:570:23:01

-Are you ready?

-I'm ready.

0:23:010:23:02

-Let's play Perfection.

-APPLAUSE

0:23:020:23:05

Your 45 seconds start now.

0:23:070:23:10

-That's a lot of pubs. I'd go false.

-False.

0:23:140:23:19

-False.

-False.

-I don't think he was.

0:23:220:23:25

The pound note ceased to be legal tender...

0:23:310:23:35

-I think that's false.

-False. And finally...

0:23:350:23:38

That's so ridiculous, I think I'll go for true.

0:23:430:23:45

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

0:23:450:23:49

-Did you feel like that was a good round?

-No.

0:23:490:23:52

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

0:23:520:23:56

These were the four statements and Paul's answers.

0:23:560:24:00

Julia, has he achieved perfection?

0:24:000:24:02

I don't know about D, about the band Boyzone much,

0:24:020:24:05

and I don't know whether Paul would know about them either!

0:24:050:24:08

Let's find someone who does.

0:24:080:24:10

-Cal, has he achieved perfection?

-He has achieved perfection.

0:24:100:24:14

I know for a fact that Colin Farrell did audition for Boyzone.

0:24:140:24:18

Well done, Paul.

0:24:180:24:19

Paul, you need to have answered perfectly to have won the round.

0:24:190:24:24

Let's find out how many are correct.

0:24:240:24:27

Congratulations, Paul, you have achieved perfection.

0:24:320:24:36

-That's a cracking start, isn't it?

-Brilliant.

0:24:380:24:41

Let's have a look at those answers in detail.

0:24:410:24:44

There are over a million pubs in the UK. You said that seemed a lot.

0:24:440:24:48

We know now it is, of course, false. There are about 50,000.

0:24:480:24:51

Pope Francis as born in Brazil. You said that was false.

0:24:510:24:54

We know now you're right. It is false.

0:24:540:24:56

-He's from Argentina.

-That's right.

0:24:560:24:59

The pound note ceased to be legal tender in the 1970s.

0:24:590:25:03

You said that didn't sound right, but you weren't sure.

0:25:030:25:06

It turned out to be false.

0:25:060:25:08

-It was legal tender until the 1980s.

-Yes.

0:25:080:25:12

Colin Farrell auditioned to be in the band Boyzone.

0:25:120:25:15

As unlikely as it seems,

0:25:150:25:17

although Cal knew it,

0:25:170:25:20

it is true! So there you go.

0:25:200:25:23

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

0:25:230:25:27

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

0:25:270:25:30

Here are your final-round categories,

0:25:300:25:33

starting with Newspapers, running through Boxing, Flags,

0:25:330:25:36

Saints and on into India.

0:25:360:25:39

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

0:25:390:25:42

Which two would you like to play in the final?

0:25:420:25:45

-Airports.

-Airports goes across.

0:25:450:25:48

And Boxing.

0:25:480:25:50

And Boxing goes into the final.

0:25:500:25:53

Usual Suspects, you didn't get much of a look-in. You might get a chance in Round 2.

0:25:530:25:58

We're going to say cheerio for the moment.

0:25:580:26:01

Paul, which two would you try to avoid?

0:26:010:26:05

Probably Chefs and Musicals.

0:26:050:26:08

And two you quite fancy?

0:26:080:26:10

India and possibly Psychology. Newspapers should be all right.

0:26:100:26:15

-Are you ready to play on?

-I am.

0:26:150:26:17

-Let's play Round 2.

-APPLAUSE

0:26:170:26:19

Your 45 seconds start now.

0:26:210:26:23

-I'm going to go with false.

-False.

0:26:290:26:32

-There's something in the back of my head telling me that's true.

-True.

0:26:360:26:40

No, I don't think he is. I think he's Welsh.

0:26:440:26:47

-So, you're saying...?

-False.

0:26:470:26:49

False. And finally...

0:26:490:26:51

I... I think that's true.

0:26:560:27:00

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

0:27:000:27:03

-Did that feel like a good round?

-No. That was tougher.

-You said that last time and got four out of four!

0:27:030:27:08

-That's true. Maybe it was great.

-LAUGHTER

0:27:080:27:11

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

0:27:110:27:15

Hello, Usual Suspects. These were the four statements and Paul's answers.

0:27:150:27:19

Let's start with Tara, the newbie. What do you make of these?

0:27:190:27:22

I think he's done well.

0:27:220:27:25

I'm not too sure about D.

0:27:250:27:27

I think that one could be changed from true to false.

0:27:270:27:30

-Julia, can you see anything wrong with these answers?

-I agree with Tara on D.

0:27:300:27:34

-I think Jacques Tati was a performer.

-OK.

0:27:340:27:37

Let's find out how many are correct.

0:27:370:27:40

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

0:27:450:27:47

You've let your enemies into the game.

0:27:470:27:51

Can you steal the round? You can see Paul's answers.

0:27:510:27:54

You need to change just one, but which one?

0:27:540:27:56

-I think D.

-It was D that rang for me.

0:27:560:27:59

-Shall we change D?

-ALL: Yes.

0:27:590:28:02

Could we change D from true to false?

0:28:020:28:04

You absolutely can change D,

0:28:040:28:06

leaving A, B and C as answered by Paul.

0:28:060:28:09

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

0:28:090:28:12

Henry VIII is buried at Balmoral. Is that true or false?

0:28:120:28:17

It is false.

0:28:170:28:19

He's buried at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle.

0:28:190:28:23

Coronation Street was created by Tony Warren.

0:28:230:28:27

That's true.

0:28:270:28:29

The graffiti artist Banksy is reputedly from Chicago. Is that true or false?

0:28:290:28:34

False. He's thought to come from Bristol,

0:28:340:28:38

certainly, that's where his work first appeared.

0:28:380:28:41

Jacques Tati is a former President of France. It is...

0:28:410:28:46

..false. Congratulations, Usual Suspects,

0:28:460:28:48

-you have achieved perfection.

-APPLAUSE

0:28:480:28:51

Jacques Tati is one of France's most revered comedians and filmmakers.

0:28:540:28:59

Let's look at the final board. Already on there are two categories.

0:28:590:29:03

Because you won that round,

0:29:030:29:05

you've earned the right to choose the next two to add to the board.

0:29:050:29:09

Which two would you like Paul to play?

0:29:090:29:12

-Maybe Musicals. Does he strike you as musical?

-He doesn't. Also Saints.

0:29:120:29:16

If that's Southampton Football, he might know, but Saints would probably be...

0:29:160:29:20

-That's difficult, isn't it?

-Yes.

-Shall we try those two?

0:29:200:29:23

-Go for it.

-Can we try Musicals?

-Musicals goes across.

0:29:230:29:27

-And Saints.

-And Saints.

0:29:270:29:30

Congratulations, Usual Suspects. Very well played.

0:29:300:29:33

It's time to switch you off. We will see you in Round 2.

0:29:330:29:37

-Well, you specifically said you didn't want Musicals.

-I didn't.

0:29:370:29:40

-Saints?

-Depends on the question.

0:29:400:29:42

-Hopefully, it's about Southampton!

-OK!

0:29:420:29:45

You have one more chance to choose the last two subjects.

0:29:450:29:49

-Ready?

-I'm ready.

0:29:490:29:50

-Let's play Round 3.

-APPLAUSE

0:29:500:29:53

Your 45 seconds starts now.

0:29:540:29:56

-I think that's true.

-True.

-Yes.

0:30:010:30:04

-That's another ridiculous one. I'm going to go false.

-False.

0:30:080:30:12

-I think that's true. I think they were.

-True.

0:30:150:30:18

And finally...

0:30:180:30:19

She was definitely in Iron Man,

0:30:220:30:24

whether it was Vicki Vale, I'm not sure.

0:30:240:30:27

-I'm going to go true.

-True. Again, with time to spare,

0:30:270:30:31

you've answered all four statements.

0:30:310:30:32

That felt like you were charging along nicely until we got to D.

0:30:320:30:36

I can't remember what the name of the character was.

0:30:360:30:39

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

0:30:390:30:44

These were the four statements and Paul's answers.

0:30:440:30:48

Cal, what do you think?

0:30:480:30:50

I think Paul's got definitely D wrong.

0:30:500:30:53

Gwyneth Paltrow was in Iron Man, but she played a character called Pepper Potts.

0:30:530:30:57

Vicki Vale is from the original Tim Burton's Batman.

0:30:570:31:00

-OK. What do you think, Tara?

-I agree with Cal.

0:31:000:31:04

She didn't play Vicki Vale, so I'd change D from true to false.

0:31:040:31:09

Paul, you need to have answered perfectly to have won the round.

0:31:090:31:12

Let's see how many are correct.

0:31:120:31:15

Three out of four's good again,

0:31:200:31:22

but, once again, it's not perfection.

0:31:220:31:24

The Usual Suspects are in the game, with the opportunity to steal.

0:31:240:31:28

Can you steal the round?

0:31:280:31:30

Now, spend some time, talk amongst yourselves...!

0:31:300:31:34

You need to change one. Which one's it going to be?

0:31:340:31:36

-I think we know, don't we?

-Yes.

-D, please.

-Definitely.

0:31:360:31:40

-You want to change D from true to false.

-Yes.

0:31:400:31:42

Leaving A, B and C as answered by Paul.

0:31:420:31:44

OK, let's have a look what the correct answers are.

0:31:440:31:49

Scorpion stings can be fatal to humans. True or false?

0:31:490:31:52

Yes, it's actually true.

0:31:520:31:55

Prince Charles has a criminal record. Is that true or false?

0:31:550:31:59

That's false.

0:31:590:32:02

However, Princess Anne has been charged and convicted

0:32:020:32:06

under the Dangerous Dogs Act in 2002.

0:32:060:32:10

That's my knighthood out the window, bringing that up!

0:32:100:32:13

The first tea bags were made of silk. True or false?

0:32:130:32:16

Yes, that's true.

0:32:160:32:18

Tea was very, very valuable. People used to lock it up in their homes in the UK.

0:32:180:32:23

Gwyneth Paltrow played Vicki Vale in Iron Man. True or false?

0:32:230:32:28

It's false.

0:32:280:32:29

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved perfection.

0:32:290:32:32

APPLAUSE

0:32:320:32:34

Cal, you're absolutely spot on.

0:32:360:32:38

It was Pepper Potts that she played, and Vicki Vale was in Batman.

0:32:380:32:43

Let's look at the final board. It's 50-50 at the moment -

0:32:430:32:46

two subjects chosen by yourself, two by the Usual Suspects.

0:32:460:32:49

Because you won that round,

0:32:490:32:51

you get to choose the last two categories to add to the board.

0:32:510:32:54

-What is it that you want Paul to play?

-Psychology?

0:32:540:32:59

-I was thinking maybe instruments.

-Instruments.

-Instruments is good.

0:32:590:33:02

-Instruments.

-Instruments goes across into the final.

0:33:020:33:06

And we'll go for Psychology, as well.

0:33:060:33:08

And Psychology goes into the final.

0:33:080:33:11

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

0:33:110:33:15

OK, guys, time to switch you off for the final time. Cheerio.

0:33:180:33:23

-So, what do you make of these?

-Psychology I'm pretty relaxed about.

0:33:230:33:26

Musicals...

0:33:260:33:28

OK, well, Paul, for £5,000,

0:33:280:33:31

-it's time to play the final.

-APPLAUSE

0:33:310:33:33

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

0:33:350:33:37

you'll be leaving with a prize fund of £5,000.

0:33:370:33:40

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

0:33:400:33:43

as one of them could be playing for a rollover of £6,000 on the next game.

0:33:430:33:48

-So let's play the final round.

-APPLAUSE

0:33:480:33:52

Here are your six final categories. You must answer correctly if you want to win the £5,000.

0:33:540:34:00

Think carefully. There is no time limit

0:34:000:34:02

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

0:34:020:34:05

-Are you ready?

-I'm ready.

-Let's reveal your first statement.

0:34:050:34:09

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

0:34:090:34:12

George Best was definitely from Belfast.

0:34:160:34:19

Is there an airport named after him?

0:34:190:34:22

-I'm going to go false.

-False.

0:34:220:34:26

Boxing.

0:34:260:34:28

-Definitely wrong. I know where that was.

-OK.

0:34:330:34:36

-So, you're saying...?

-That's false.

0:34:360:34:38

False.

0:34:380:34:40

Musicals.

0:34:400:34:41

Oliver... Oliver! got the, erm, Oscars.

0:34:440:34:49

It was the only musical that won an Oscar. Was it Rodgers and Hammerstein?

0:34:490:34:52

-I'm going to go true.

-True.

0:34:520:34:56

Saints.

0:34:560:34:58

Lost causes... It doesn't sound right.

0:35:030:35:05

I'm going to go false.

0:35:050:35:07

False.

0:35:070:35:08

Instruments.

0:35:080:35:10

I'm going to go false.

0:35:160:35:18

-False.

-False.

0:35:180:35:20

And finally, Psychology.

0:35:210:35:24

I don't think he did. I don't think Sigmund Freud did devise that.

0:35:330:35:37

I'm going to go false.

0:35:370:35:39

False. And with that, you've answered all six statements.

0:35:390:35:44

They're all locked in. If there is one single mistake, you leave with nothing.

0:35:440:35:48

-Which ones are you unsure of?

-Quite a few of them.

0:35:480:35:51

-It didn't feel like a comfortable round.

-No, no.

0:35:510:35:54

I think there was some tricky ones in there.

0:35:540:35:57

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

0:35:570:36:00

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements and Paul's answers.

0:36:000:36:05

Your answers are locked in. You can't change them by yourself.

0:36:050:36:08

If you think you've made a mistake, you can unlock them. This will, however, come at a cost.

0:36:080:36:13

-Paul, who would you like to hear from first?

-I'll go with Tara.

0:36:130:36:17

There's one that I know is wrong

0:36:170:36:19

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

0:36:190:36:22

so, I'm sorry, I won't be able to help you out.

0:36:220:36:25

-Tara just ruled herself out.

-Mm. I'll try Julia.

0:36:250:36:29

-Julia, what do you think?

-I know you've got two wrong

0:36:290:36:34

and I wonder about another one.

0:36:340:36:36

How sure are you about your answers?

0:36:360:36:39

I'm pretty confident.

0:36:390:36:41

-I think I've probably got about four.

-Right.

0:36:410:36:44

Yes... I think perhaps £3,000...

0:36:440:36:48

She'd like £3,000 of your £5,000.

0:36:480:36:52

You haven't asked Cal yet.

0:36:520:36:54

Let's go to Cal. That's a good idea. Sorry.

0:36:540:36:57

Erm, I know you've definitely got one wrong, Paul.

0:36:570:37:01

There's a couple in there that I'm a little bit unsure of.

0:37:010:37:04

I'm going to sit this one out and let you get back to Julia.

0:37:040:37:08

OK, so Cal has counted himself out, Tara has counted herself out

0:37:080:37:12

and Julia wants £3,000.

0:37:120:37:14

Is that still the case? You'll come down for £3,000?

0:37:140:37:18

-Yes, I'll come down for £3,000.

-What do you think?

0:37:180:37:20

-Bring her down. Come on, Julia.

-OK. Negotiations are complete.

0:37:200:37:24

For £3,000 of the £5,000 on offer,

0:37:240:37:27

Julia, please come down and play Perfection.

0:37:270:37:31

OK, Paul, you've asked Julia for help.

0:37:340:37:36

If you achieve perfection, it will cost you £3,000 of your £5,000 prize fund.

0:37:360:37:40

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

0:37:400:37:44

This is your only shot at winning Perfection. Have you made the right decision?

0:37:440:37:49

Here are the final-round statements. All six answers are now unlocked.

0:37:490:37:53

Julia, which answers is it that you want Paul to change?

0:37:530:37:57

I do know that Oliver! wasn't written by Rodgers and Hammerstein.

0:37:570:38:01

It was much later on than they were writing. I know that for fact.

0:38:010:38:06

St Jude is the patron saint of lost causes.

0:38:060:38:09

I'm pretty sure on that.

0:38:090:38:12

-George Best Airport?

-I'm not 100 percent on that.

0:38:120:38:16

-I think that might be true.

-It doesn't sound right.

0:38:160:38:19

-I haven't heard of it.

-He was such a popular footballer, wasn't he?

0:38:190:38:24

That's the one I was worried about. I think it is true.

0:38:240:38:26

Paul, it's still your decision. You don't have to listen to Julia.

0:38:260:38:30

But the board is now open and unlocked,

0:38:300:38:33

which means you can change any or none of the answers.

0:38:330:38:36

What would you like to change?

0:38:360:38:39

I'm going to definitely change C from true to false.

0:38:390:38:44

C changes from true to false.

0:38:440:38:47

I'm going to change D from false to true.

0:38:470:38:52

D from false to true.

0:38:520:38:55

And then we've got a debate about this Belfast...

0:38:550:38:59

-I'm...

-I think it's true.

0:38:590:39:01

Why would they put a question up there like that

0:39:010:39:04

unless it was a different famous person?

0:39:040:39:07

I'm going to go...

0:39:070:39:09

I'll change A from false to true.

0:39:090:39:11

You're going to change A from false to true.

0:39:110:39:15

-Come on!

-Happy with the rest?

-Yes.

0:39:150:39:18

-Lock the rest in?

-Yes, lock the rest in.

-OK.

0:39:180:39:21

£5,000 at stake - £2,000 for you, Paul, £3,000 to Julia,

0:39:210:39:25

six answers away,

0:39:250:39:27

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

0:39:270:39:31

You changed A, C and D. The interest is at the top of the board

0:39:330:39:36

so let's start at the bottom, shall we?

0:39:360:39:39

-Let's!

-You knew I was going to do that, didn't you?

0:39:390:39:43

Sigmund Freud devised the Rorschach 'inkblot' test.

0:39:430:39:46

You said this was false, Paul. Julia agreed with you.

0:39:460:39:50

Is it true or false?

0:39:500:39:52

It is false. Very well done.

0:39:520:39:53

Yay! One down, five to go.

0:39:530:39:57

It was devised by Hermann Rorschach.

0:39:570:40:01

Makes sense, doesn't it?

0:40:010:40:02

A spinet is played by blowing air through a tube. You said false.

0:40:020:40:07

If you're right, this should turn red and you'll be a third of the way to the money.

0:40:070:40:11

Is it true or false?

0:40:110:40:14

-It is false.

-It's going to be on this Belfast...

-Sorry!

0:40:150:40:21

It was played using a keyboard.

0:40:210:40:22

St Jude is the patron saint of lost causes.

0:40:220:40:26

Paul, you thought this was unlikely so you said false,

0:40:260:40:29

but Julia came down and convinced you to change it to true.

0:40:290:40:33

Is it true or false?

0:40:330:40:37

It's true!

0:40:370:40:39

This is really interesting because, essentially, Paul,

0:40:420:40:45

if you hadn't had Julia join you, this is the point where you would've lost the game.

0:40:450:40:50

As it happens, you are halfway towards £2,000 for yourself

0:40:500:40:55

and £3,000 for Julia.

0:40:550:40:57

Oliver! was written by Rodgers and Hammerstein. You said this was true, Paul.

0:40:570:41:01

Julia was convinced that it wasn't true, because...?

0:41:010:41:04

I remember seeing a programme about the actual person who wrote it.

0:41:040:41:07

I can't recall his name, but it wasn't Rodgers and Hammerstein.

0:41:070:41:11

If you're right, this will turn red.

0:41:110:41:13

Is this true or false?

0:41:130:41:16

It is false. You're absolutely right.

0:41:160:41:20

Lionel Bart is the person who wrote it.

0:41:200:41:23

Lionel Bart, yes.

0:41:230:41:24

Wow, look where we are.

0:41:240:41:26

Rumble in the Jungle was staged in Brazil. Paul was convinced on this one.

0:41:260:41:30

You said that the boxing match was in...?

0:41:300:41:32

-Kinshasa.

-You think Kinshasa, do you?

-I think so.

0:41:320:41:35

-Definitely Africa.

-Definitely Africa. OK.

0:41:350:41:38

If it turns red, you are just one question away from the £5,000.

0:41:380:41:44

Is that true or false?

0:41:440:41:47

-It's false.

-APPLAUSE

0:41:470:41:49

Oh, my goodness. APPLAUSE DROWNS OUT SPEECH

0:41:490:41:52

You're absolutely right. It took place in Kinshasa.

0:41:520:41:56

How are you feeling?

0:41:560:41:58

-I feel...

-It's 50-50.

-This has got to be true!

0:41:580:42:03

Well, this is the one you weren't really sure of.

0:42:030:42:06

Paul, you said this was false. Julia, you said this was true.

0:42:060:42:11

Neither of you have flown to an airport in Belfast.

0:42:110:42:16

Belfast has an airport

0:42:160:42:19

named after George Best.

0:42:190:42:23

You need this to turn green.

0:42:230:42:26

-Please!

-For £5,000,

0:42:260:42:29

is it true or false?

0:42:290:42:32

Come on!

0:42:370:42:39

Please be green!

0:42:410:42:43

-It's true! You've just won £5,000!

-APPLAUSE

0:42:430:42:46

-You have achieved perfection!

-You star!

0:42:460:42:49

NICK LAUGHS

0:42:490:42:51

Congratulations. Congratulations.

0:42:510:42:55

-Thank you.

-Brilliant stuff!

-Ohh!

0:42:550:42:58

Julia, 11 games you've played to get to get to that money.

0:42:580:43:01

-Yes, I've worked hard for it!

-You have worked hard for it.

0:43:010:43:04

Sadly, that's pretty bad news for Tara and Cal!

0:43:040:43:07

We reset the total to £1,000 for our next game.

0:43:070:43:11

Congratulations to you, Julia and Paul.

0:43:110:43:14

You played the most fantastic game and achieved perfection.

0:43:140:43:17

That's all we have time for. Join us next time

0:43:200:43:23

when our Usual Suspects have the chance to play again for £1,000.

0:43:230:43:26

On this show, we will pay, but only for perfection.

0:43:260:43:30

-Goodbye.

-APPLAUSE
