Episode 47 Perfection

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

Behind this screen are four contestants who will

be hoping that their knowledge is flawless, because one single

mistake could give the game away. This is Perfection.

Welcome to Perfection, where only perfect play is good enough.

Behind me, the contestants, we call them the Usual Suspects.

They're in our isolation room.

In a moment, we will find out which one of them has been randomly selected to play Perfection.

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

For example, if I said...

Would you say that's true, or false?

Well, if you'd 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

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

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

I am Dinieka from Glasgow.

I'm a textile design graduate and this is my first game.

I'm Lee, I'm a kitchen team leader from Birmingham

and this is my second game.

I'm Denver, I come from Enfield, North London,

I'm a supply teacher and carer and this is my third game.

I'm Dan, I'm from Plymouth, I'm an engineering team leader

and this is my fourth game.

Welcome and best of luck, as we find out which one of you has been

randomly picked to play Perfection.

Denver, it's you, please come down and join me.

APPLAUSE

Denver, welcome to the game. I want to find out about the name,

because you don't find many English people called Denver.

My grandmother had a mad crush on an actor called Denver Pyle.

If you ever saw the Dukes Of Hazzard, he wasn't one of the two hunks,

he was the old grandad that looked like Father Christmas.

He died a couple of years ago, actually.

He was supposed to be quite good-looking when he was younger.

-So you got named after him?

-I got named after him.

-Very interesting.

You're a supply teacher in primary schools, is that right?

Well, I taught for 35 years in secondary school,

now I just teach in primary schools.

It's great teaching in primary schools, the kids are so enthusiastic,

and if you're enthusiastic, it's great for them and they learn.

That's really good work. It's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

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

Their job is to stop you winning the prize fund,

because if it rolls over,

they get to be down here playing for more cash next time round.

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

Nobody won the last three games,

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

What would you spend the money on?

Unfortunately, my sister died quite young,

leaving very young children,

and I've been like a second father to them, with my brother-in-law,

and, literally, now, they've just... One just graduated two or three

days ago. Before they get married and have their own families,

I'd like to take them on one big holiday, over to Disneyland

and spoil them, just as a farewell before they become adults.

What a fantastic thing to do. All of a sudden, I really,

really hope that you win some money here in the next few minutes.

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

Every round that you achieve Perfection will make the Final easier.

However, if your performance is less than perfect,

the Usual Suspects will have the chance to step in

and steal the round, making the Final much harder for you.

More of that to follow later.

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

so you can't see or hear anything.

Each round consists of four true or false statements.

You'll be answering against the clock. You'll have 45 seconds

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

-You ready?

-Yes.

-Then let's play Perfection.

Round 1. Your 45 seconds start now.

-False.

-False.

I think it's Northern Territory is the largest, so that's false as well.

False.

-He definitely did. That's true.

-True. And finally...

Emmy Awards I thought were for music, and its BAFTAs for the theatre,

-so that is false.

-False.

With time to spare, you have answered all four statements.

-How's that?

-A lot easier than I thought it was going to be.

It is time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

These are the four statements and next to them are Denver's answers.

-Dan, has he achieved Perfection?

-No, I don't think he has.

-I'm pretty confident B might be wrong.

-Interesting.

-Lee?

-I agree with Dan. That is the one that I would change.

-Dinieka, welcome to the show.

-Hi.

I would be inclined to agree with Lee and Dan

that Denver has got B wrong.

OK, Denver, the moment of truth.

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

Let's find out how many are correct.

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

It means the Usual Suspects can steal the round.

You need to change just one answer, but which one?

-I think we're all agreed on B, aren't we?

-Pretty sure, yeah.

I think we're going to go for B, false to true, please, Nick.

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

as answered by Denver.

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

Yes, it's false. They're not related at all.

It's complete rubbish. Not a completely rubbish question.

Quite a funny question. Question setters, don't want to upset them.

But nonetheless, the idea that they are related is, of course, complete rubbish.

It's true. Very well done, Usual Suspects.

Approximately one third of the continent of Australia.

That's true.

It's false.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

-Actually, Emmy Awards are given for achievement in television.

-Ah, right.

Denver, the Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed.

Appearing before you is your final board.

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

Here are your final category options, starting with Posh Spice,

moving from Acorns, Mars, and on to Holidays, with many more in between.

If you'd have won that round,

you'd have the opportunity of adding two categories of your choice,

but because the Usual Suspects stole the round from you, they get

to choose the two categories, hoping to make the Final harder for you.

Usual Suspects, which two would you like Denver to play in the Final?

What do you think about Brazil,

given that he's just got a geography one wrong?

-Yeah, I was thinking that.

-Posh Spice?

-How much do you think Denver knows about Posh Spice?

-Don't know.

-I would say Posh Spice.

-Shall we go with Posh?

We'll go with Posh Spice, please, Nick.

-Posh Spice goes into the Final. And?

-And Brazil as well, please.

Brazil. Well done, Usual Suspects, you've won the first round.

Time to switch off. We'll see you in Round 2.

Now that they've gone,

we're going to have a little chat about those two. Posh Spice?

She actually comes from about three or four miles from where I live.

You might know something.

-I might know something if they ask me where she comes from.

-And Brazil?

Brazil, it will probably be something to do with languages or

geography, and actually, I'm quite good at geography, even though

-they think I'm not.

-That's worked out quite well for you, then.

Let's look at that list.

What are the first two you'll be choosing for yourself?

On The Stage might be there somewhere, and also Eyes,

-because I'm a biology teacher.

-And two you would be keen to avoid?

Comic Relief - I never seem to watch that, I'm always busy,

and Texas, because that's such a wide topic. It might be

something about the Alamo or something like that,

but otherwise, I'm not well up on Texas.

OK, it's the first round. You still have two more rounds to find Perfection

and choose your own categories for the Final.

-Are you ready for the next round?

-Certainly.

-Then let's play Round 2.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-True.

-True.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False.

False. I think it's some other thing he's won it in.

-Not in literature.

-False.

So, with plenty of time to spare, you've answered all four

and sounded very positive all the way through those.

Spitalfields Market - Smithfield is probably the meat market,

but it's moved, so I'm not certain it was Spitalfields it moved to.

I'm a bit confused on that one.

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

Here are the four statements and next to them are Denver's answers.

Lee, has he achieved Perfection?

I think on this occasion, I agree with his answers.

I can't see any specifically that I would change.

OK, thank you. Dinieka?

I would totally agree that he's got Perfection in this round too.

-Dan, is this Perfection you see before you?

-No. I'm not so sure.

I've got a feeling B might be wrong. I know it's a large market,

but I think they sell a lot more than just meat.

I think it's more of a mix.

OK, Denver, it's the moment of truth.

Let's find out how many are correct.

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

As a result, Usual Suspects, you can steal this round.

All you need to do is change one answer, but which one?

My wife dragged me to Spitalfields,

and there was a lot more than just meat there.

-It's more of an everything sort of market.

-Yeah, I agree. Change B.

Yeah, we'd change B from true to false, please, Nick.

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

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

Absolutely true.

It's false. Well done, Usual Suspects.

It is, in fact, a fashion and vintage market,

-which is probably why she was dragging you down there, Dan.

-Exactly!

-The big meat market, by the way, is Smithfield.

-That's what I said.

-You said false very quickly here.

-No reason at all.

-I've never heard anything from Coldplay.

-OK, fair enough.

Is it true, or false?

It is false, in actual fact.

Vampire Weekend, who I'm sure you are a big fan of.

-They probably only come out at night anyway.

-That's very good.

Yes, false. Congratulations, Usual Suspects,

you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Oh, dear, Denver, the Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed

and they have stolen the round. Let's see the final board.

You've earned the right to choose the next two categories,

-as well as the first two, so off you go.

-What do you think about Mars?

That could be quite obscure. Acorns could be quite strange.

-It sounds like a strange category.

-Yeah?

-Yeah, Acorns.

-We'll choose Acorns, please, Nick.

-Acorns goes into the Final.

And I'm inclined to go with Mars.

-Mars, yeah.

-What about you?

-Yeah.

-Go for Mars as well, please, Nick.

Mars goes into the Final as well. Thank you, Usual Suspects.

You have won the second round. We'll see you in Round 3.

How about those?

Mars, I am a keen science fiction and astronomy person,

so it depends what it will be,

whether it's about the moons or the actual make-up of Mars.

Acorns, obviously, there's botany there,

and plants and seeds, so I might know something about that.

-Ready to carry on?

-OK.

-Let's play Round 3.

Your 45 seconds start now.

-False.

-False.

-True.

-True.

-False.

-False.

-I think I read something about that. I'd say yes, true.

-True.

And again, we have time to spare.

You're not hanging about on these.

Unfortunately, I think I've done A wrong.

I've wired so many plugs at school with the kids in electricity lessons...

I'll leave you to ponder that.

Whilst pondering it, we'll bring back the Usual Suspects

and see what they have to say.

These were the four statements, and next to them are Denver's answers.

Dinieka, what do you make of these answers?

I think Denver's got B wrong.

In the back of my mind, I'm thinking Jo Whiley was the first female DJ on Radio 1.

-Lee, what do you think?

-I agree, actually, with Dinieka.

I think the second one's wrong, but I think it's Annie Mac

or someone like that, seems to ring a bell.

Dan, can you find anything wrong with these answers?

Yeah, I'd agree. I think B's definitely wrong.

I know there was Lisa I'Anson as well, who was before Zoe Ball.

They all think you made a mistake. Let's find out how many are correct.

You are heading in the wrong direction,

having got three out of four in the first two.

Either way, you've let the Usual Suspects into the game,

although they appear to be as much in the dark as you do,

having thought you only got one wrong.

You've got to find three to change, Usual Suspects. Which three?

-A?

-Yeah, I think he's got that right.

Live wire is usually red or brown.

-Yeah, I was thinking brown. Change the other three?

-I think so. Agreed?

-Yeah.

-OK, we're going to leave A as it is and change B, C and D.

B changes from true to false. C changes from false to true.

D changes from true to false, leading A as answered by Denver.

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

Yes, it is false. Live is brown. Very well done, Usual Suspects.

And because you've identified the one that was right, you know where this is going.

That is, in fact, false. Annie Nightingale was the first DJ.

Absolutely true, in actual fact.

It's false.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

Ed Balls has been an economics teacher and a journalist,

but not a chef.

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

of winning the prize fund about as hard as they can be, to be honest.

Let's have a look at the final board.

You get to make a clean sweep,

because you won that last round as well. Fire away.

-What about Comic Relief?

-It's been going for a good few years.

-It's vast, isn't it?

-It has been going for a long time.

-And Islands as well, there are so many.

-Shall we go for those?

-Yeah.

-OK, we're going to go for Comic Relief and Islands, please, Nick.

Comic Relief goes into the Final. And so does Islands.

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

Time to switch you off for the final time.

-You didn't want Comic Relief.

-No, I have no idea about it.

Islands, we're back to geography again.

Again, it could be anything.

I've travelled quite a bit around islands in the Mediterranean,

and also in the Far East, so it depends.

Denver, for £4,000, it's time to play the Final.

This is the all-important Final.

If you achieve Perfection, you could be leaving with £4,000.

If you fail, you'll be leaving with nothing,

which will be great news for the Usual Suspects,

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

Let's play the final round.

Denver, here are your final six categories.

You must answer all statements correctly

if you want to win the £4,000.

There's no time limit, but once you've given an answer,

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

-I'm ready.

Then let's reveal your first statement.

I would say that is definitely false.

False.

They play for Brazilian football teams, and that is definitely false.

False.

I would say that would be false as well, I think.

-False?

-Yeah, false.

It's called the red planet.

-There's no water there, so obviously, I still think... That's false.

-False.

Well, that's false, he actually swam.

It was one of these female singers that did that, so that was false.

False.

Pitcairn Island, I think that is where

the Mutiny on the Bounty finished,

off the coast of Australia or New Zealand, over that way.

-Pitcairn Island is in the Irish Sea, that is obviously false.

-False.

-And with that, all the answers are locked in.

-They are all falses.

Yes, it is an entire board of falses, isn't it?

-Which ones are you worried about?

-The acorns could be anything.

David Walliams, I'm thinking about that now, and having

a doubt about that, because he may have had his hair cut as well.

I'm sure it was that woman,

somebody Perry or something, that had that done.

I'm thinking that four out of the six are right. Two are dubious.

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

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final statements.

Denver, your answers are locked in and you can't change them

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

This will, however, come at a cost, so, Denver,

-who would you like to hear from first?

-Dinieka.

I think you've got two wrong, but I'm not completely confident.

I wouldn't want to come down and help you,

because I don't want to actually blow my own chances of winning

some money, so I'm going to rule myself out on this instance.

-Yes, OK.

-Straightforward. Who would you like to speak to next?

-Dan.

I think you might have one wrong, but I'm not too confident myself.

-Are you very confident with the others?

-I'm definite on four.

I'm a bit iffy on the other two.

-I don't think you can tempt me down in that case, Denver.

-OK?

-And Lee?

I'd change one, I think, but I'm not too sure on the others,

-so I'm afraid I'm going to leave it all to you.

-Thank you very much.

That's very nice of them, isn't it? They put it so nicely.

They are hoping that you will fail and the money will roll over.

None of the Usual Suspects are willing to help you, so you are on your own.

£4,000 at stake, six answers away -

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

Dinieka, you thought there might be one wrong?

I'm pretty sure he got one, but I'm swaying on another one as well.

-You can say which one.

-I think he got A wrong.

-What do you think, Lee?

-I think exactly the same.

-That's interesting.

Daniel, you thought there was one wrong - which one do you think?

I wasn't sure on F, to be honest.

I'm not sure whereabouts they are,

and if it's far enough south to be in the Irish Sea.

OK, start at the bottom and work our way up, then, shall we?

We'll deal with Dan's worry first.

You said this was false.

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

It's false. Very well done.

It is in the South Pacific, as you said. That's a good start.

In 2003, David Walliams shaved his head for Comic Relief.

You said you knew nothing about Coming Relief,

but you thought, actually, it wasn't him,

but that was one of those pop stars like Katy Perry. So you said false.

Yes, it is false. Well done.

He recorded a sketch for Comic Relief.

But it was Jessie J who shaved her hair off for Comic Relief.

There was no reason for this to be false.

Is that true, or false?

Yes, it is false. Well done.

The sky on Mars varies.

Sometimes blue, sometimes a butterscotch colour. Very well done.

OK, acorns can be used to make an artificial coffee.

You had got to think about this and thought it was unlikely,

possible, but unlikely. We need this to turn red.

If it does, it puts you two away from the £4,000.

It's true, I'm afraid.

Famously, the Germans used it in both World Wars to make

a sort of artificial coffee. Lord knows what it tastes like.

I'm afraid that means that you haven't achieved Perfection

and you won't be taking any money home.

I wonder if you can still achieve Perfection at home.

You said that was very definitely false,

not because of your knowledge of supermodels, I hasten to add,

but your knowledge of footballers.

Yes, it's false. Very well done.

They are footballers. This will be interesting.

Have you just missed out on the one about the acorns or not?

You said this was false. In actual fact, Dinieka and Lee

thought that you might be wrong about this one.

It's actually true.

Interestingly, she has become a very well-known fashion designer

and did win that award in 2011.

So, Usual Suspects, that's good news for you -

the prize rolls over to the next game,

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

I'm afraid you failed to achieve Perfection,

which means that you go home with nothing other than our thanks.

-I hope you enjoyed yourself.

-I've had a fantastic time.

-Thank you very much. Denver!

APPLAUSE

Right, it's now time to meet the next Usual Suspect hoping to

play Perfection today.

New Usual Suspect, please introduce yourself.

I'm Des, from The Lizard in Cornwall, and I'm a scuba-diving instructor.

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

which one of you has been selected to play Perfection.

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

-Welcome.

-Thank you.

-You work for an aerospace company.

You might have been involved in putting stuff on planes that I've actually been on.

-Yeah, it's a worrying thought, isn't it?

-You also like your fitness.

Yeah, we just did, through work, the Three Peaks Challenge, which is

where you have to climb Ben Nevis, Snowdon and Scafell Pike in 24 hours.

-That's a lot of uphill.

-Yeah, it's tough going,

but it's good, it's enjoyable.

-Slept well at the end of it, I should imagine.

-Yeah, felt like sleeping for a month.

-And ached for how long afterwards?

-Yeah, a good week.

-I can imagine.

All right, Dan, it's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

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

Nobody's won the last four games,

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

APPLAUSE

Now, that's a handy windfall.

What will you be spending it on when you win it?

I haven't had a holiday since our honeymoon, about three years ago,

so I'd like to take my little girl on holiday for the first time.

Anywhere you're thinking in particular?

I'd love to go on safari, and my daughter, she's nearly two,

she loves animals, so that would be a good shout,

-to go to Tanzania or Kenya.

-OK, best of luck.

Three rounds and a final. The Usual Suspects, we're going to switch you off

so you can't see or hear anything.

As soon as Dan makes a mistake, you'll be back.

When they go into silhouette, you can talk through answers

without giving away any vital knowledge. You ready?

-Yes.

-Then let's play Perfection.

Round 1, your 45 seconds starts now.

-I know it's a German word for fruit. I think that's true.

-True.

-Yeah, I think... I'm going to say true for that one.

-True.

-I think they're in Chicago, so I'm going to say false.

-False.

And finally...

-Yeah, he did that after Oasis. I will say true.

-True.

And with plenty of time to spare,

you have answered all four statements.

-That felt good, didn't it?

-Not too bad.

-Confident round?

-Pretty confident.

-In with a chance?

I think I've got quite a few right there.

Before we reveal how well you've done, it's time for us

to bring back the Usual Suspects.

These are the four statements and next to them, Dan's answers.

-Lee, has he achieved Perfection?

-On this occasion, I think he has.

-Definitely.

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

No, I think he's achieved Perfection in this round.

-Des, what do you make of these answers?

-They all look pretty good.

Smashing. You need to have answered all four statements perfectly

to have won the round. Let's find out how many are correct.

Congratulations, Dan, you have achieved Perfection.

-That's a very good start, isn't it?

-Not too bad.

A confident smile now. You can relax a bit.

Let's go through those in more detail.

Yes, that is actually true. Literal translation is "earth berry".

Yes, it is absolutely true.

Yes, false. As you said yourself, in Chicago.

Absolutely true. As a result of that perfect performance,

you've made winning the prize fund a lot easier.

Let's look at the final board.

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

Here are your final round category options.

Starting with Squirrels, on to Nicolas Cage, Mountains,

Market Towns and Airports, with many more in between.

Because you won the round, you've can add two categories to the board,

so which two would you like?

I like films, so I think Nicolas Cage would be a possible choice.

-Nicolas Cage goes in the Final. And?

-I don't fancy Squirrels at all.

That might not have been a sensible thing to say

when the Usual Suspects are listening.

Um...

US History isn't...

I think I'll also go with Celebs.

Celebs goes into the Final.

OK, Usual Suspects, we'll see you the next round.

In the meantime, we're going to switch you off.

Dan, they can't hear us now - were you bluffing?

I know that one's red and one's grey, but that's about it.

You've now given them two subject categories that they know you won't like.

-Which is dangerous, really.

-I know.

OK, so pick me two that you would really not like to get.

Yeah, Squirrels. Market Towns. Not too sure on that.

And a couple that you would be choosing next?

-Airports I would probably go with.

-That makes sense, with your job.

Yeah, I've done quite a bit of travelling as well.

Mountains, maybe.

It's only the first round, but you've made a fantastic start.

Perfection is the way to go. Now that you've given them

ammunition about what you don't want, the only way to stop that is

to achieve Perfection each time so you're the one doing the choosing.

-OK.

-Let's play Round 2.

Your 45 seconds starts now.

-That's false, I think.

-False.

-Yeah, he finished his career with Stoke, so I would say true.

-True.

I've been to Amsterdam.

-I'm sure the Rhine is in Germany, so I'll say false.

-False. And finally.

Given that "eis" is in there, that's German for "ice", I'll say true.

True, and again, with time to spare,

you've answered all four statements. Again, it felt very strong.

Yeah, not too bad. There's a couple I'm not sure on.

Mainly C and D, I think.

All right, before we reveal how well you've done,

it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So here are the four statements and next to them are Dan's answers.

Dinieka, what do you think? Has he achieved Perfection this time?

I think he's done it again. I think he's got Perfection in this round.

-Des, what do you think?

-It looks good. Not convinced about B, though.

I think Michael Owen retired

-a little bit earlier than that.

-Lee, what do you think?

For some unknown reason, D keeps playing on my mind

-because it sounds too obvious to be true.

-That's interesting.

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

Dan, congratulations. You have achieved Perfection again.

-Brilliant performance.

-Not too bad.

-Not too shabby, is it?

Let's go through them in more detail.

Huggy Bear was a character in The Muppet Show.

You said it's false, and it is of course false.

-Huggy Bear was in Starsky And Hutch.

-That's it.

Fozzie Bear was the Muppets.

Michael Owen retired as a football player in 2013. True, or false?

Of course, we know that to be true.

The city of Amsterdam stands on the Rhine river.

You said that was false and it is of course...

false.

It stands on the river Amstel, in actual fact.

You are right, the Rhine is over in Germany.

The sweet wine, Eiswein, is made from frozen grapes, true, or false?

And of course we now know that it is true.

Let's see the final board.

You've chosen two subject categories and because you won that round,

you get to choose the next two as well. What do you fancy?

-I think I'll go for Airports, please.

-Airports goes into the Final.

-And?

-And I think I'll choose Mountains as well.

And Mountains goes into the Final. The Usual Suspects,

-not getting a look in here, are you?

-Not at all.

Maybe you will in Round 3.

In the meantime, we are going to switch you off.

Very well done. OK. I think whilst you're on a roll, we'd better carry on.

-OK.

-Yeah?

-Yeah.

-Let's play Round 3.

Your 45 seconds start now.

-He was in Blackadder.... I would say false.

-False.

-That's really high. I'm going to say false.

-False.

I've got a feeling it was the 20th century, possibly.

-I'll say tr... Er...

-I'm afraid...

-True, OK.

You got enough of "true" out for me to have to take it, I'm afraid.

-I'll say false for that one.

-False.

And with time to spare, you answered all four categories.

Let's talk about that William Gladstone one.

You got enough "true" out for me to have to take it, I'm afraid.

I always have to take your first answer.

So are you worried about that one now...?

To be honest, no, because I wasn't too sure anyway. It was 50/50.

All right. Before we reveal exactly how you've done,

time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So, here are the four statements and next to them are Dan's answers.

Lee, are you going to get a look-in this time, do you think?

I don't think so, somehow. I think he's been a bit too clever.

Dinieka, is this Perfection you see before you?

I'm not too sure.

For some reason, I think he's got C wrong

but I could be completely wrong myself.

Des, can you see anything wrong with his answers?

No, I think he's got three rounds out of three.

That would be quite something. Dan, the moment of truth.

You need to have answered all four statements perfectly

to have won the round. Let's find out how many are correct.

Congratulations, Dan. Once again, you've achieved Perfection.

There's me warning you about giving information away

for choosing in the Final.

You can say whatever you like if you carry on doing that

because the Usual Suspects don't get to play.

OK, let's go through those in more detail.

Stephen Fry played the Prince Regent in Blackadder.

You said that was false and of course it is false. He...

-The Prince Regent was played by Hugh Laurie.

-OK.

The speed limit on French motorways 240km/h.

You said that was false and it is false.

You also said it was just too high.

In actual fact, it's 130km/h.

William Gladstone was Prime Minister in the 19th century.

You said that was true and it is of course true.

Prime Minister on four occasions in the 19th century.

And the painter John Constable was born in 1526.

You said that was false and it is false.

1776 to 1837, John Constable lived.

Let's look at your final board.

Four subjects and they are chosen by you.

Because of your clean sweep during the game, it's going to be

a clean sweep of categories in the Final for you as well.

Which two would you like to finish off with?

I think I'll take Words, please.

-Words goes into the Final, and one more.

-I will go with Animation.

And Animation, too. Interesting.

Usual Suspects, what do you think would have been

your first choice for him once you'd got in?

-Squirrels, probably.

-Yeah!

I thought that might have been the case. OK.

We now know our six final categories. They are:

Time to switch off, Usual Suspects, for the last time. Cheerio.

And, well, you've done all you can to give yourself the best

opportunity in the Final.

Of course, all of this good work counts for nothing

if you don't get six out of six for £5,000.

It is time to play the Final.

Dan, this is the all-important Final.

If you can achieve Perfection,

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

If you fail, you'll be leaving with nothing, which would be

great news for the Usual Suspects as one of them could be

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

Let's play the final round.

Dan, here are your final six categories.

You must answer all six 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 is locked in. You ready?

-OK.

Let's reveal your first statement. Nicolas Cage.

I know he's quite quirky...

-I'm going to say true.

-True.

I have to watch a lot of reality programmes,

which Peter Andre...has one of those. I know he's Australian.

I don't think he was born in the UK, so I'm going to say...

-false.

-False.

It's a possibility. It's not something I know.

-I'm going to say false.

-False.

I know Mont Blanc's really high.

I'm not too sure if there is any higher than that in that region.

I've not heard of Mount Elbrus.

-I'm going to say false again.

-False.

I've recently become a father so I do a bit of dad dancing myself. But...

It's more of a description than it is a word,

-so I'm going to say false.

-False.

I know it is set in outer space but I really don't know

if it is Venus or not.

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

-True.

Dan, those answers are locked in.

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

Which ones are you unsure of?

I'm not sure on C.

My history doesn't go too far back.

Not sure on that one.

D as well, not too confident on.

-And again, F as well. Three of them, really.

-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 next to them are Dan's answers.

Dan, your answers are now locked in and you can't change them

by yourself. If you think you've made a mistake, you can unlock

the board with the help of the Usual Suspects.

This will, however, come at a cost.

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

-Dinieka, please.

I think you've done really well,

but there are two that I'm not completely sure on.

I really, really don't know, but I do think you've done quite well.

At the moment, I don't know about two of your answers.

-So I think I'm going to rule myself out.

-OK. Thank you. Des, please.

Pretty much the same as Dinieka, really.

There are a couple there that I'm not...

I wouldn't have a clue one way or the other.

For me to come down there,

I just don't think I'm going to be much help to you, really.

-Sorry.

-Thanks, Des.

-Lee, please.

-I'm the same as Dinieka. There are two I'm not quite sure of.

It depends on how confident you are.

I'm pretty confident on, I would say, four of them, but...

..if you're not too sure, I'm not sure.

There's £5,000 in the pot here.

You have to decide - do you want someone to come and help you,

do you want to go it alone?

Given the responses from the guys, they don't sound too sure, so I'm

going to take my chances and if it's wrong, give someone else another go.

OK. In which case, negotiations are over.

Dan, you decided to go it alone. £5,000 at stake. Six answers away.

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

I'm interested to know... Dinieka, which one did you think was wrong?

I think E and F are wrong, for some reason.

-You are worried about E and F. Des, what about yourself?

-To be honest,

more D and E. E certainly.

Lee, what do you think?

-I'm the same. D and E.

-They have worries about D, E and F.

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

Nicolas Cage named his son Kal-El after Superman.

You said he was just about nuts enough to have done that,

so you went with true. Is it true, or false?

It is true. Good start. Very good.

Right, Peter Andre was born in the UK.

You said this was false, because you are forced, apparently,

-to watch a lot of reality TV.

-As, I am sure, many men are.

-Yeah.

Is it true, or false?

It's true.

Never mind. Wouldn't have thought it.

Unfortunately, that means you haven't achieved Perfection

and you can't take any of the cash.

The interesting thing about Peter Andre is

he plainly sounds Australian, and he lived in Australia.

He actually was born in the UK, then grew up in Australia,

then returned to the UK later. That's where the confusion is.

Certainly, it's not one of the ones that the Usual Suspects picked up on either.

-My wife certainly would have known the answer to that.

-Yeah.

-You might get a bit of stick.

-I think I might do.

I wonder whether you can still achieve Perfection at home.

Let's find out if you'll get stick for this one as well, because,

of course, working in the aero industry.

Croydon was once London's international airport.

You said that was false, though, to be fair, you said it was possible.

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

I'm afraid that one's true as well.

Croydon was once London's international airport.

Mount Elbrus is taller than Mont Blanc.

You know Mont Blanc is tall.

Not heard of Mount Elbrus so you said false.

Is that true, or false?

That was true as well.

That was the one that Des and Lee are nodding about.

Dad dancing is in the Oxford English Dictionary.

This is one of the ones that the Usual Suspects

thought might be true.

You said this was false. Is it true, or false?

That one's true as well.

I can give you the official

-definition as well, if you like.

-Go on.

"An awkward, unfashionable or strained style of dancing..."

You've met me before, then!

"..as characteristically demonstrated by middle-aged or older men."

You're not middle-aged yet, so don't worry about that.

Getting to the dad dancing,

it embarrasses the children and as a father, that's your job.

-Exactly right.

-You need to work on those dad dancing skills.

-Yeah.

That's a favourite one.

I like to get that one going.

Anyway, finally, the 2013 animated film Epic is set on Venus.

You said true. Is it true, or false?

I'm afraid that one's false.

It's set in a forest on Earth.

You know what, there's an extraordinary thing happened there.

You got 12 out of 12 in your rounds.

You then had a bit of a mare in the Final there

and only got one of the six.

-So perhaps you should have done Squirrels.

-Exactly, yeah.

Usual Suspects, that's good news for you.

The prize fund rolls over to the next game.

One of you could be playing for a total of £6,000.

Just goes to show what a tough quiz this is, though,

and having selected all your own categories, I'm afraid you

failed to achieve Perfection, which means you go home with nothing.

Other than that, our thanks for playing. I hope you enjoyed playing.

It's been brilliant. Met some really nice people as well. Thanks.

Smashing. Let's hear it for Dan, everybody.

That's all we have time for.

Please join us next time, when our Usual Suspects have

the chance to play again, this time for £6,000.

But remember, this is very tough to win.

On this show, we only pay for absolute Perfection. Goodbye.
