Episode 41 Perfection

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

Behind this screen are four contestants who will be hoping

their knowledge is flawless because one single mistake

could give the game away. This is Perfection.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Hello and 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 of them has been

randomly selected to join me here to play Perfection.

They will then face a series of true or false statements.

For example, if I said "the birthplace of Florence Nightingale

"is in Italy," 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 the contestant

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

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

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

I'm Peter, I'm from South London, I work in the retail sector

and this is my first game.

I'm Shaz, from Manchester, a retail training officer

and this is my second game.

I'm Jan, I'm from Sheffield, I'm a performance assessment officer

and this is my fourth game.

I'm Mary, I'm from West Sussex, I'm a funeral coordinator

and this is my fifth game.

Welcome to you all, and best of luck as we now find out

which one of you has been randomly picked to play Perfection.

Shaz, it's you. Please come down and join me.

APPLAUSE

-Shaz, welcome to the game.

-Thank you.

-Let's find out a bit more about you. You like to write scripts.

-Yes.

I was told I had a wild imagination so I thought, put pen to paper.

Really? Do you write still?

Not as often as I'd like to,

with having a child, I don't get the time any more.

Once the little one's gone to bed, you get a chance then?

-Once he's in bed I'm probably in bed with him!

-Worn out at that stage!

He has a vivid imagination as well, doesn't he?

Yes, he's absolutely obsessed with Spider-Man.

OK, he knows he's fictional, doesn't he?

Now, he actually believes it's true. He is real. He exists.

-He exists, and lives...?

-In New York.

-OK.

The big aim is to get my son to New York.

-Maybe a few quid today might help that out.

-Definitely.

You need to win first, and it's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

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

-Yes.

Their job is to stop you from winning the prize fund,

because that will mean the prize money rolls over to the next game

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

Every game on Perfection is worth £1,000. Here's the good news.

Nobody's won the last three games,

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

APPLAUSE

-So I imagine there's a New York trip, is there?

-Oh, yes.

Or other more pressing needs?

No, the aspiration is to go to New York so that would pay for it.

Plus the fact that he thinks he's real, I would have to pay somebody to

dress up as Spider-Man and go around Central Park just to please him.

Running around Central Park! Best of luck. Here's how the game works.

You'll play three rounds and then a final.

Every round that you get Perfection will make the final easier for you.

However if your performance is anything less than perfect

the Usual Suspects here will have a chance to step in

and steal the round, making the final that much harder.

More of that to follow later. Usual Suspects,

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

We'll see you later. There they go. Shaz, when they're like this,

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

Each round consists of four true or false statements.

You'll be answering against the clock.

You'll only have 45 seconds. When you give an answer, your first

-answer, it will be locked in. Are you ready?

-I am.

Then let's get started and play Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Round 1, your 45 seconds start now.

No, I don't think he's got the build for that. To be in a band.

I'm going to go with false.

Not too sure with flags. I'm going to go false.

Don't see that. I think that's false.

No, I'm going to go with false as well with that.

False, and with a few seconds to spare you answered all four statements.

Good time management. How did that feel? Confident round?

Half and half, really.

Before we find out how well you've done, we'll bring back

the Usual Suspects and see what they have to say.

-Don't forget, they can hear what you're saying now.

-OK.

So, these were the four statements

and next to them are Shaz's answers.

-Mary, has she achieved Perfection?

-I think she's done very well.

Yes, I do. I think she's got Perfection this time.

Jan, can you find a fault with these answers?

B, the Southern Cross appears on the flag of Brazil.

There is a cross there,

so it's possible it could be the Southern Cross.

That's the only one I can think of that may possibly be wrong.

-Peter, what do you think?

-I would probably change D.

-Interesting.

Shaz, the moment of truth. They seem to think

you might have tripped up. But not quite sure where.

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

Let's find out how many are correct.

Three out of four is a good score, certainly better than average,

but not quite Perfection.

As a result, the Usual Suspects are allowed into the game

and can steal the round off you.

Of course they will have to find the one answer that you need to change.

-So which one is it? Usual Suspects?

-How confident are you with D?

I'm fairly confident.

I'm pretty sure that the Southern Cross

does not appear on the flag of Brazil.

There are some stars on it but I'm pretty sure,

sure as I can be, Richard the Lionheart was born in Egypt.

-Good enough for me.

-Good enough for me.

OK, Nick, change D from false to true, please.

D changes from false to true. Leaving A, B, and C

as answered by Shaz. All right, Usual Suspects,

let's find out what the correct answers are.

If it turns green it's true, if it turns red it's false.

It was Martin Kemp and his brother Gary Kemp

who were members of Spandau Ballet.

Ross Kemp not related as far as we know.

That's true! That's the one you needed to change.

Oh, dear, Usual Suspects. You had the chance to steal the round

from Shaz but you failed to achieve Perfection.

Can you still achieve Perfection at home?

Let's have a look at the rest of those, shall we?

It's by Bret Easton Ellis.

Yeah, I'm afraid that is in fact false.

He was actually born in Oxfordshire. So Usual Suspects,

had you achieved Perfection you would now have the opportunity to

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

And here's how. Shaz, this is your final board.

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

Here are the final round categories.

Had you achieved Perfection, you would now have the opportunity

of adding two categories of your choice to the board.

But because nobody wanted to win the round, the two categories

that were due to be chosen will now carry over to the next round.

Meaning four categories will be on offer.

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

We'll see you in Round 2.

Shaz, now the Usual Suspects have gone,

what do you think of the categories on offer?

Let's talk through them. Pick two that you would like to choose given the option.

-Definitely girl bands. And then the next one is dances.

-OK.

-And pick two that you would really like to avoid.

-Definitely French!

-And earwigs.

-French and earwigs.

Remember, Shaz, in order to win the prize fund you need to answer

all six statements correctly. Winning the next round,

when there's four on offer could be really crucial.

-Yes?

-Yes.

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Then let's play Round 2.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds start now.

I'm not too sure if they're the same age.

Stephen Fry may be a bit older so I'm going to go with false.

I'm going to say false for that one.

I think that's true. Go with true.

I believe that to be true.

And with time to spare you have answered all four statements.

-So, how was that?

-Harder than the first round.

-It's not an easy game to win, this, to be honest.

-Is it not?

We'll make you work for it. But it is winnable.

So, before we reveal exactly how well you've done it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

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

Jan, has she achieved Perfection this time?

C, the Epsom Derby, I don't remember there

being like a major racecourse at Derby.

I could be wrong, but that's the one I can see as being wrong.

-Peter, what do you think?

-I agree with Jan, I think.

-I think that's the one that is probably suspect.

-OK, Mary.

I think C is wrong too.

They all seem to think you've made a mistake here, Shaz.

It's the moment of truth. Let's find out how many are correct.

Three out of four again. Consistent!

Unfortunately consistently just short of Perfection.

As a result the Usual Suspects are back in the game.

A studied look on their faces, look.

Thank you very much, Jan, for the extra acting there.

Usual Suspects, can you steal the round?

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

-We all agreed the same, didn't we?

-Yeah.

Change C, please, Nick, from true to false.

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

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

In fact, they met at university, at Cambridge.

That is, of course, false, although he once played

a goalkeeper in Escape To Victory - remember that movie?

Yeah, that's false, it's a Derby run in Epsom

rather than an Epsom run in Derby.

Either way, it's false. It's run at Epsom Downs.

You know where this is going now, don't you, Usual Suspects?

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

Shaz, the Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed

and nicked the round off you. That's rather bad news.

Usual Suspects, you now have the opportunity to make Shaz's

chances of winning the prize fund of £4,000 much harder.

Let's see the final board. Now because you won the round,

you earn the right to choose four categories to add to the board.

That's two from this round and two that rolled over from Round 1.

-So, how are you going to do this? Mary?

-So one each?

-Go for it, yeah.

-I would like Iraq, please.

-Iraq goes into the final.

-I'll go tough sports, please.

-Tough sports. Peter.

I think Geronimo.

Geronimo goes into the final. And one more.

Who knows anything about earwigs? No-one.

Earwigs, are you happy with that?

-Earwigs, yeah.

-Earwigs, please, Nick.

Earwigs goes into the final.

Thank you very much, and congratulations, Usual Suspects.

You've won the second round, which effectively means you won the first one as well.

Time to switch you off, we'll see you in Round 3.

Earwigs. You said, I don't mind as long as I don't get earwigs.

-Yeah.

-On the upside, they didn't pick French.

-Very true.

-What do you make of the others? Iraq?

-Only what I see on the news.

-Tough sports?

-May be OK on that one, not sure.

-Geronimo.

-Definitely not.

-Well, you still have one more chance to find Perfection

and choose your own categories for the final which will make things a little bit easier.

If you're ready to play, let's carry on with Round 3.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds start now.

-Um... I believe that to be true.

-True.

Um...

-I can't see that. So, I'm going with false.

-False.

Um... I'm not too sure if it was the '70s. Um...

-I'm going with false for that one.

-False.

And finally...

-Again, I'll go with false for that one.

-False.

And with that, you've answered all of them. How was that?

-Just as awkward and bad as the other two!

-Really?

OK, so before we reveal exactly how well you've done, it's time for us to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So, Usual Suspects, these were the four statements

and next to them are Shaz's answers. Peter, give us the lowdown on these.

-How has she done?

-I'm not sure about D, but the rest of them look good.

-Jan, what do you think?

-I would have given the same answers.

-I don't know if they're right.

-And, Mary, what do you think?

D, I'm not sure of, but she's done really well.

All right, Shaz, the moment of truth.

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

Twice, you've got three out of four. I wonder how many you've got correct this time.

To be fair, if you were playing darts, people would say good

grouping, but unfortunately, being that consistent isn't helping.

You're consistently just below the success mark,

which means the Usual Suspects are in the game again.

You need to change one answer, which one?

Donizetti opera, it's the kind of crazy thing Ann Widdecombe might do.

-Surely not.

-Do you think?

-As a walk-on part?

-I'd go with D. You both said D, initially.

-OK.

-Let's be decisive and say D.

-We think he WAS born in Brighton.

-We think he was.

-OK, D, please, Nick, from false to true.

OK, D changes from false to true, leaving A, B, C,

as answered by Shaz.

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

Scotland has had two kings named David. True or false?

That's true. David I and David II.

Ann Widdecombe has appeared in a Donizetti opera. True or false?

It's true!

It's true! Peter tried as hard as he could to get you to go for it!

But you couldn't get a consensus, could you, Peter?

Jan and Mary weren't having anything of it at all.

As a result, you can't steal the round

and you failed to achieve Perfection.

Can you still achieve Perfection at home? Let's have a look at those others.

The Sony Walkman first went on sale in the 1950's. True or false?

Yeah, that is false. 1979.

The DJ Nick Grimshaw was born and bred in Brighton. True or false?

Yeah, of course, that's false. He's got a northern accent.

Manchester, grew up in Oldham.

OK, Usual Suspects, had you achieved Perfection, you would now

have the opportunity to make Shaz's chance of winning much harder. Let's have a look at the board.

Currently occupied by four subject categories

chosen by the Usual Suspects. Nobody wanted to win Round 3,

meaning we have two blank spaces still to fill.

You're going to take it in turns.

Shaz, as the single player, you get to choose first.

Which is the only subject to take into the final of your choosing?

-I'm going with Girlbands.

-Girlbands goes into the final.

Usual Suspects, finish us off, please. Which one would you like?

-I'd say French.

-French is good for me.

-OK, French, please, Nick.

French goes in to the final. We now know our six final categories.

They are...

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

-They only went and did it!

-They have been mean!

-Mean!

-Mean!

-You didn't want French. Mind you, you got one in there.

-Yes.

-That's handy.

-One's always handy.

-Absolutely!

-Shaz, it all depends on what questions come up.

-It does.

So, for £4,000, it's time to play the final.

APPLAUSE

This is the all-important final. If you can achieve Perfection, you could be leaving with £4,000.

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

One of them could be playing for a rollover of £5,000.

And considering how mean they've been to you, it would be nice

-to stop them doing that.

-Definitely would, yeah.

-Just walk off into the sunset with the cash.

-And wave.

-OK, let's play the final round.

APPLAUSE

Shaz, here are your final six categories.

You must answer all six statements correctly,

if you want to win the £4,000.

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

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

-Then, let's reveal your first statement.

Please tell me whether you believe it to be true or false.

I've never heard of a river in Baghdad. Seen a lot on the news.

-So, for that one, I'm going to say false.

-False.

I've seen obstacle courses. Um...

Whether or not it's called Tough Mudder...

I would associate that with mud wrestling.

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

-False.

-Something ringing a bell. I'm going to say true for that one.

-True.

-I'm going to say false for that one.

-False.

Girlbands - the only subject you chose for yourself.

I think it's been in the last year or two.

I'd expect they'd have had more than one, actually.

-So, I'm going to go true with that one.

-True.

And finally, the one you wanted to avoid,

but they chucked it in the last minute, French.

If it's anything to go...

I make a lot of Chicken Chasseur, so that's very similar to...

I would imagine being sauce.

-Um... So, I'm going to say false for that one.

-False.

And with that, those answers are locked in.

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

-Which ones are you unsure of?

-A, Baghdad.

D, the earwigs have eight legs.

All right, let's bring back the Usual Suspects and see what they have to say.

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

Shaz, your answers are locked in, but if you think you made

a mistake, you can unlock the board with the help of the Usual Suspects.

This will, however, come at a cost. Usual Suspects, I'm going to ask you now to tell me how well you

think Shaz has done, if you want to help and how much it will cost.

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

-Peter, please.

Shaz, I'm afraid I don't think you've got Perfection.

There are at least three I know you have wrong and I'm not sure about a fourth.

Does that mean you're not going to come down and help?

I'm not in a position to help you.

-OK, Mary?

-I think you might have two wrong,

but I'm not sure enough that I know the answers to be able to help you.

Again, does that mean you could consider coming down or not at all?

No, I don't think I would, Nick.

-The last one that's left.

-That makes sense.

-Yeah.

I would say you've certainly got one wrong that I know of

and the others, I'm not too sure of. From what the other guys are saying, it sounds like you've got

more wrong, so I do not want to come down and help. Sorry.

Looks like you're on your own.

-No surprise.

-They're not willing to help. However, they might be wrong.

£4,000 at stake, six answers away.

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

Let's start at the top and work our way through.

Baghdad is on the Tigris River.

You said you'd never heard of Baghdad being on a river.

You went with false.

We need this to turn red to get you off to a good start.

Is it true or false?

It's true.

And that means you haven't achieved Perfection

and you won't be going home with any cash. I wonder whether you can still achieve Perfection at home.

Let's take a look through and see how well you've done.

Tough Mudder events are endurance obstacle courses.

-You said that sounded more like mud wrestling.

-Yeah.

So, you went with false.

We need this to turn red. Is it true or false?

I'm afraid that's true. They are endurance obstacle courses.

Geronimo was Cherokee. You said this was true. Is that true or false?

-No, this one's false. He was Apache, actually, Geronimo.

-OK.

Earwigs have eight legs. You said that was false.

We'd like this to turn red. Is it true or false?

Yes, it is false. Very well done.

They have six legs, as insects.

The Saturdays have had a UK number one single.

You thought this was true, so we need this to turn green.

Is it true or false?

-Yeah, it is true. Very good. This is looking a lot healthier now.

-Yeah.

Two right, three wrong. It'd be nice to even this up.

Chaussure is the French word for shoe.

-You said this was false because you cook chicken...

-Chasseur.

Although, to be fair, you said you didn't want them

to choose French as a subject.

No, I didn't!

We'd like this to turn red, please. Is it true or false?

I'm afraid that one's true.

-You're thinking of "Chasseur".

-Yeah.

-Which is slightly different.

You got two out of six right. You actually only chose one of your own categories.

-The one I picked, I got right.

-Think of the rounds you played as well.

-Three out of four in every round. You only got three questions wrong in those 12 questions.

-Yeah.

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

which is what you were playing for.

What a rotten bunch of questions you set there!

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

APPLAUSE

Shaz, you failed to achieve Perfection, which means you go home

with nothing, other than our thanks for being such a great fun player.

-Did you enjoy it?

-Yes, loved it. Thank you very much.

-Let's hear it for Shaz, everybody.

-APPLAUSE

It's now time to meet the next Usual Suspect,

hoping to play Perfection today.

-New Usual Suspect, please introduce yourself.

-I'm Sally.

I'm from Berkshire. I'm an HR adviser.

Welcome, Sally, and best of luck to all of you, as we now find out

which one of you has been randomly picked to play Perfection.

Peter, it's you! Please come down and play.

APPLAUSE

Peter, welcome to the game. You have a real interest in science fiction.

Me and my wife, we're geeks, I'm afraid!

There's a place that you want to go that's sort of Geek Central,

in terms of sci-fi.

Yeah, we've got a little bit of a "we want to do" list

and part of that is to do a road trip in the States to San Diego

and do the Comic-Con, which is the big sci-fi...

-Is this the one where they all get dressed up?

-It might be!

So, who would you and your wife be dressing up as?

-I'd probably go as Doctor Who.

-And the wife as the assistant?

Or a Dalek, something like that.

You're in trouble when you get home!

OK. Best of luck. It's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

Consider them the enemy, the Daleks, if you like!

They were your teammates, they're now your enemies. Nobody's won the last four games,

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

APPLAUSE

Would that be enough to get you on your road trip and to Comic-Con?

-It will certainly help, that's for sure.

-Three rounds and a final to come.

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

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

-When they're like this, you can talk through your answers without giving anything away.

-OK.

-You ready?

-Yeah.

-Then let's get started and play Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Round 1, your 45 seconds start now.

It's off the Gold Coast. So, I'll say that's... false.

False.

Um...

Is it...? Let me think.

-I will say that's true.

-True.

I believe that's true.

True.

And finally...

-It's set... It's about the White House. That is false.

-False.

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

-So, how was that round?

-Not a great round for me, I don't think. Um...

B and A... I'm not sure if it's Queensland or the Gold Coast.

Before we find out for sure, let's bring back the Usual Suspects and see what they have to say.

Don't forget, they'll be able to hear you.

These are the four statements and Peter's answers.

-Jan, can you see any mistakes?

-A is wrong.

I've been to the Barrier Reef, it is off the Queensland coast.

Sally, what do you think?

I actually agree that. I thought A was wrong as well.

Peter, the moment of truth. You need to have answered all four

statements perfectly to have won the round. Let's see how many are correct.

Just two out of four, in fact. Certainly not good enough for Perfection

and you've let the Usual Suspects into the game.

Can you steal the round?

It's not one, but two answers you need to change, which two?

A is definitely wrong. We need to change A.

-OK.

-I don't know anything about films.

-Olympus Has Fallen...

-I don't know.

-It would sort of make sense it was set in Greece.

But that could be a trap.

I've no idea about the mountain chicken being a frog.

-I've got no idea. What about C?

-It is a carriage. Let's go D.

A and D.

A and D, please, Nick.

A changes from false to true. D changes from false to true,

leaving B and C as answered by Peter.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

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

The Great Barrier Reef is off the Queensland coast. True or false?

Yeah, that's true. Absolutely right.

The mountain chicken is a type of frog. True or false?

Yeah, it's actually true!

A carillon is a carriage drawn by four horses. True or false?

That's false.

-It's a term used in bell ringing.

-LAUGHTER

OK!

OK, so it means, Usual Suspects, you failed to achieve Perfection.

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

The film Olympus Has Fallen is set in Ancient Greece. True or false?

Yeah, that one's false.

Set in Washington DC.

So, Usual Suspects, had you achieved Perfection,

you'd have the opportunity to make Peter's chances of winning the prize fund much harder. And here's how.

Peter, appearing before you is your final board.

These six blank spaces need to be filled with categories. Here are your options.

Starting with Languages, running through Johnny Depp, British

Law, Overtures and on to Star Trek, with many more in between.

Because neither side won the round, the two categories that were due to be chosen will be carried over

to the next round, meaning four categories will be on offer.

Usual Suspects, time to switch you off. You missed an opportunity there.

I wonder whether you'll get a chance in Round 2, which is when we'll see you next.

Peter, they've gone, they can't hear us, so let's have a chat. Pick me two you'll be choosing first.

Obviously, it's going to be the Star Trek one. Johnny Depp.

Pick me two you're keen to avoid.

Overtures and Golf, I'd like to avoid.

In order to win the prize fund, you need to answer all six statements perfectly,

so choosing four, which is what you'll get

if you win this round, could be crucial.

-Let's do better!

-Let's play Round 2.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds start now.

-No, Emma Samms played Fallon. That is false.

-False.

-I think it was Porto. So, I'll say that's false.

-False.

-His last play was The Tempest. That's false.

-False.

And finally...

-I believe it does. I'll say that's true.

-True.

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

-And you sounded very confident all the way through.

-I'm a good liar!

LAUGHTER

-No, really. Did that not feel better for you?

-That was a little better.

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

Here are the four statements and Peter's answers.

-Jan, how's he done?

-C is the only one that I don't know about.

-The other three are correct.

-Mary? Has he achieved Perfection?

-I agree with Jan.

-I'm not sure about C.

-Peter, the moment of truth.

You need to have got all four correct to win the round. Let's see how many are correct.

Congratulations!

Peter, you've achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

-That's always nice when that happens. Very well played.

-Nice.

-I said you sounded more confident.

Let's start at the top and go through those in more detail.

Stephanie Beacham played Fallon in Dynasty.

-You were sure this was false because you thought it was...

-Emma Samms.

Emma Samms.

So, we now know it is false.

Emma Samms did play Fallon.

Sable Colby, Stephanie Beacham played.

Inter Milan was Jose Mourinho's first team as manager.

You said that was false because you thought it was...

I thought it was Porto.

So, we now know it is false.

His first full-time managerial post was actually at Benfica.

But it certainly wasn't Inter Milan.

Troilus and Cressida was Shakespeare's last play.

You were absolutely certain that wasn't the case, so you said false.

And we now know that it is false.

It's actually unclear which was his last play,

but nonetheless, Troilus and Cressida was not his last play.

A Mai Tai cocktail typically contains rum and you said this was

true and we now know that it is true. Very well played.

Peter, as a result, you've now made winning the prize fund a lot easier.

Let's have a look at the final board.

Currently empty. Barren, a wasteland. No categories chosen.

Because you won that round, not only do you get to choose

two from this round, but two carried over from the last round.

You now have a choice of four. Fire away, which four would you like?

I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to go with Star Trek.

I don't think that's surprising anybody. Star Trek goes into the final.

-Johnny Depp.

-Johnny Depp.

-Adventurers looks interesting.

-Adventurers. And one more.

-Tea.

-Tea makes it into the final.

Usual Suspects, you might have got yourselves into trouble there.

He's taken the first four. I'll see you in the next round. Cheerio.

Well done. You've hopefully made winning the final that bit easier.

-Are you ready to play on?

-I am.

-Whilst you're on a roll, we might

as well keep the vibe going.

-Let's carry on with Round 3.

-APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds start now.

A volturi...

I don't...

-I think I'm going to say false on that.

-False.

No, he was one of the Founding Fathers, so that is also false.

False.

-It's the tallest building in Europe. Um... True.

-True.

And finally...

They represented Ireland twice, that is false.

False, and with time to spare you've answered all four.

And, again, you sounded very definite about all that.

I'm not sure, "volturi" sounds a little Roman,

so, I wasn't sure about that.

The Shard, I know it's the tallest building in Europe.

Is it taller than the Empire State?

I wasn't quite sure on that, but the other two I was pretty sure on.

Well, before revealing exactly how well you've done

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

So, these are the four statements and next to them are Peter's answers.

Let's start with you this time, Sally. Can you see any mistakes there?

The only one I might have a doubt about is C.

-Mary?

-I'm the same as Sally, I don't know whether the Shard

is taller than the Empire State Building.

Peter, the moment of truth.

You need to have answered all four statements perfectly

to have won the round, let's see how many are correct.

Three out of four's not bad but it's not Perfection.

You've let your enemies into the game. Can you steal the round?

You can see Peter's answers, you need to change one.

-I'm not sure about it, but I think the hunch was C, wasn't it?

-It was.

-OK.

-C, please, Nick, change it from true to false.

C changes from true to false,

leaving A, B and D as answered by Peter.

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

A "volturi" is a young vulture, true or false?

Yeah, that's false. Young vulture is usually just called a chick.

The Volturi are the clan of evil vampires in the Twilight movies.

LAUGHTER

Thomas Jefferson was a 20th-century US President, true or false?

Yeah, that's false. President from 1801 to 1809,

which makes him a 19th-century President, of course.

The Shard is taller than the Empire State Building, true or false?

Yes, that's false.

That's the one you thought was wrong and you're absolutely right.

309 metres for the Shard, Empire State - 443 metres,

quite a bit taller in actual fact.

Jedward have represented the UK at Eurovision, true or false?

Yeah, it's false. Congratulations, Usual Suspects,

you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

And just to clear that up, as you said, Peter,

Jedward have represented Ireland twice but not the UK,

so the Usual Suspects have

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

Usual Suspects, you now have the opportunity to make Peter's

chances of winning the prize fund that little bit harder.

Let's see the final board.

Four categories chosen by Peter on there, but because you,

the Usual Suspects, won that last round

you get to choose the last two. So, which two do you fancy?

-Golf?

-British Law...

-I was going to say golf.

-British Law, I think.

-OK.

British Law and Golf, please.

British Law goes into the final.

And so does Golf. We now know our six final categories.

They are Star Trek, Johnny Depp,

Adventurers, Tea,

British Law and Golf.

Very well played, Usual Suspects, time to switch you off,

we'll see you later. Cheerio.

Looking very happy with themselves there.

-You didn't want Golf, did you?

-No.

-British Law, how about that one?

-Not too bad.

If that's not too bad, you've got yourself

a pretty good board there. Four subjects chosen by yourself,

one you're not too bad on and just one you're unhappy with.

-It all depends on the question, doesn't it?

-It certainly does.

Peter, for £5,000, it's time to play the final.

APPLAUSE

Peter, this is the all-important final, if you can achieve Perfection

you could be leaving with £5,000.

If you fail, you'll leave with nothing,

which will be great news for the Usual Suspects as one of them

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

So, let's play the final round.

APPLAUSE

Peter, here are your final six categories.

You must answer all six statements correctly

if you want to win the £5,000.

Think carefully, there's no time limit, but once you've

given an answer, your first answer, it will be locked in.

-Are you ready?

-Yeah.

Let's reveal your first statement.

Please tell me whether you believe it to be true or false.

Star Trek, here we go.

He plays Scotty, that is false.

False.

Johnny Depp.

He does indeed, that is true.

True.

Adventurers.

-He was actually in the SAS, that's false.

-False.

Tea.

I think it's an Indian tea, so I will say that is false.

False.

British Law.

They used to say, "Read the riot act."

I think it came in after the Corn Laws, that sort of period.

-Let's say true.

-True.

And finally, Golf.

Nick Faldo, let's think.

He was pretty... He had a long career, he won a lot of Majors,

-I'll say true.

-True.

And, with that, all six answers are locked in.

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

-So, which ones are you worried about?

-E and F.

-That's it, is it? E and F?

-Yeah.

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

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements,

next to them are Peter's answers.

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

But if you think you might have made a mistake you can unlock the board

with the help of the Usual Suspects. This will, however, come at a cost.

Peter, who would you like to hear from first?

Mary, let's hear from you, please.

There's two that I'm not sure you've got right.

One I think I would be OK about changing and coming down.

The other one, no, I'm not sure enough

about the answer, so no, thank you.

OK, thank you. Sally.

I agree with Mary, there are a couple that I think

you might have wrong, but I'm not sure enough,

and I wouldn't want to risk your money by coming down to help you,

so I'm going to rule myself out, but I wish you luck.

OK, Jan.

There is one particular one that I think is wrong.

What sort of money would you look

at giving me to come down and change it?

Or are they bluffing and you don't need them?

Well, I think I'm pretty confident. How confident are you?

I'm also fairly confident.

The ones that I have a question mark over,

I'm not sure they can absolute,

with certainty, help me on, I think.

-So?

-I'm going to go with my answers.

-You're going to go alone?

-Yes.

OK, negotiations have come to an end.

Peter, you've decided to go it alone,

£5,000 at stake, six answers away.

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

Jan, you said you thought there was one wrong,

which one would you have changed?

I had my doubts about the bottom two, to be honest.

I thought Nick Faldo was a little bit older

and I thought the Riot Act came into force a little later.

All right, let's get started and see how we go along.

Start at the top here,

Simon Pegg plays Spock in Star Trek Into Darkness.

It was the first category you chose,

you were absolutely certain about this, you said false straight away

without any hesitation at all, is it true or false?

-Yes, you're absolutely right, it's false.

-APPLAUSE

And you're absolutely right, Simon Pegg plays Scotty.

Johnny Depp plays Tonto in the Lone Ranger -

you said this is definitely true, are you as confident about this?

-Yeah.

-So we're expecting this to turn green, is it true or false?

Yes, it's true.

APPLAUSE

Bear Grylls used to be a US Marine.

You said this was false, is that true or false?

Yes, that's false, as well.

APPLAUSE

Halfway there all on your own without any trouble at all.

Earl Grey tea was first grown in Brazil.

You went with false on that, as well.

So, we're expecting this to turn red, is it true or false?

APPLAUSE

First produced in China, in actual fact.

So, very interesting, here we go.

The last two, and the question was whether you needed Jan to come down

and open up the board so you could change them or not.

Jan had some doubts, certainly didn't sound definite.

So, were you right to go on your own

or should you have got Jan down to change a couple of these?

The Riot Act came into force in 1715.

Jan thought it might have been later,

but you went with true on that one.

If it turns green,

you are just one away from the £5,000 all on your own.

Is it true or false?

It's true.

APPLAUSE

Well, I wonder how hard he'd have argued over that one.

The only other one he mentions, of course, is the next one, F,

which is another one you were less than 100% on,

but you went with true.

If you're right, this turns green,

you walk away from here with £5,000.

If you're wrong, it'll turn red

and the money will roll over for the Usual Suspects.

-Which way do you think it's going to go, Jan?

-Hopefully, he's wrong.

LAUGHTER

-But you're not sure, are you?

-Nope.

So, Nick Faldo was 19 when he won his first Major.

You need this to turn green.

Is it true or false,

for five... thousand... pounds?

It's false!

It was false! I'm afraid it means you haven't achieved Perfection

and you won't be going home with the cash.

Let's deal with that straightaway, shall we?

Nick Faldo was in fact 30 when he won his first Major title,

-which I think is a surprise even to you, Jan, isn't it?

-Enough!

So, it went the way you wanted, though, Jan, Usual Suspects.

That's good news for you. The prize fund rolls over

to the next game where one of you could be playing

for a total of £6,000.

APPLAUSE

I think it's fair to say you all thought it might have gone there.

Yeah, all looking very nervous.

Peter, you failed to achieve Perfection,

but what a game you played, absolutely fantastic.

You did really well in the individual rounds,

and there at the end, five out of six, you got so close,

but unfortunately we can't send you home with any money.

-I hope you enjoyed playing.

-I did, thank you very much for having me.

What a great contest to watch.

APPLAUSE

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

when our Usual Suspects have the chance to play again,

this time for £6,000.

But remember, five out of six just isn't good enough -

on this show we only play for absolute Perfection.

Goodbye.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
