Episode 49 Perfection

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

Behind this screen the four contestants who'll be hoping their knowledge is flawless,

because one single mistake could give the game away. This is Perfection.

APPLAUSE

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,

so 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...

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,

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.

My name's James.

I'm a call centre manager from Leeds and this is my first game.

Hi, my name's Richard.

I'm a retired driving instructor from Brixham in Devon.

This is my second game.

Hi, I'm Des from Lizard in Cornwall.

I'm a scuba diving instructor and this is my fourth game.

I'm Dinieka. I'm from Glasgow.

I'm a textile design graduate 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.

APPLAUSE

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

Dinieka, welcome to the game. I need to ask you first of all.

Unusual name. Where's that from?

-My mum read it in a book before I was born.

-Is that right?

-Yeah.

-OK, so people are always asking you how to pronounce, presumably.

-Yeah.

-It's a very lovely name.

-Thank you.

-Also you are at university.

-I've just graduated.

-Congratulations.

-Thank you.

-In what in particular?

I graduated from the Glasgow School of Art with Textile Design honours.

Very good. Good for you. So what do you want to do?

Do you want to go into the fashion industry?

I've specialised in interiors,

so I have just designed my own range of knitted cushions.

Are you going to start selling those online and then maybe get a shop?

Hopefully start selling online and at some point have my own shop

-and my own sort of design business.

-OK. That's great.

Well, there's a lot of British young designers around who

are making a mark on the world, so good luck with that.

-It's interesting, cos it's you versus all the men.

-Yeah, I know.

And trust me, they're not going to be gentlemanly about this cos

they want the cash to roll over.

It is you now versus the Usual Suspects.

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

and their job is to stop you from trying to win the prize fund

cos you're failure will mean the prize money rolls over

to the next game where one of them could be sitting here

playing for a bigger total.

Now, every game on Perfection is worth £1,000.

Here's the great news for you - nobody won the last game,

so the prize fund currently stands at £2,000.

APPLAUSE

So having just graduated I imagine there's a fairly a big hole

in the wallet at this stage, so what will the £2,000 go towards?

Hopefully I'd be able to give my mum and dad some money back cos

they have bailed me out so much over the last few years.

I also promised my boyfriend that I would take him on holiday for

his 21st birthday which was two years ago and I still haven't done that.

-Aah.

-And anything else will go towards starting up my business.

Oh, good for you. Best of luck. Here's how the game works.

You'll play three rounds and then a final.

Every round that you achieve 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 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.

Dinieka, when they're like this, you can talk through your answers

-without giving away any vital knowledge, OK?

-Yeah.

Each round consists of four true or false statements.

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

and once you've given an answer, your first answer,

-it will be locked in.

-OK.

-You understand?

-Yep.

-Are you ready?

-Yep.

-Then let's play Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Round One. Your 45 seconds start now.

Totally don't have a clue, but erm...

-I'm just going to say true.

-True.

That, I'm pretty sure, is false

-cos I'm pretty sure they're a basketball team.

-False.

Seems strange enough to be true, so true for that.

True. And finally...

-I think that's false cos his new one is Inferno, so false for that.

-False.

With time to spare you answered all four statements. How was that?

-All right.

-You look slightly worried...

-Yeah.

-It is a bit nerve-racking, isn't it?

-It is a wee bit, yeah.

Before we reveal exactly how well you've done, it's time to bring

back the Usual Suspects, and don't forget they'll be able to hear you.

So, Usual Suspects, these were the four statements

and next to them are Dinieka's answers.

James, how do you think she's done?

Erm, I think she's done really well.

I'm reasonably certain that C is wrong.

I'm almost 100% sure that Henry Cavil is from England.

-Richard, what do you think?

-I'm not certain.

I think she's got Perfection. I don't know about Henry Cavil,

so from my point of view I would say she's probably got Perfection.

OK, Dinieka, 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,

so you let your enemies, the Usual Suspects, into the game.

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

You only need to change one but which one?

-Sounds to me like you were confident on C, weren't you?

-Yeah.

-Yeah, can we change C from true to false, please, Nick?

-You can.

C changes from true to false. A, B and D remain as Dinieka answered.

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

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

They are, of course, a basketball team.

Born in Jersey.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you have achieved Perfection.

And The Mountains Echoed is by Khaled Hosseini in actual fact.

So, Dinieka, they have succeeded where you've failed

and they've stolen the round. Usual Suspects,

you now have the opportunity to make Dinieka's chances of winning

the prize fund much harder in the final and here's how.

Dinieka, this is your final board appearing.

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

Behind each category will be a true or false statement

and you'll need to answer all six perfectly to have won the round,

so you need perfect play.

Here are you final round category options,

starting with Footballers running through Snooker, Currency

and onto UK Rivers, with many more in between.

Now, if you'd have won that round, you'd have had the opportunity

of adding two categories of your choice to the board,

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

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

So, fire away, Usual Suspects. Which two would you like?

-What do you fancy, chaps?

-Formula 1?

-Yeah.

-Yeah, Formula 1, please, Nick.

Formula 1 goes in. And...?

-What about something like Jazz?

-Yeah.

Yeah? And Jazz, please, Nick.

And Jazz goes into the final. Well done, Usual Suspects.

You won the first round. It's time to switch you off.

We'll see you in Round Two.

Right, they've gone. We can have a chat about that. Formula 1?

Surprisingly, I think that I might do OK on that.

-I do watch a fair bit of sport and stuff...

-Wow.

-So, yeah.

-And Jazz?

I studied music at school, so hopefully, fingers crossed,

-that'll be OK.

-Looking at the options on the left there,

which two will you be choosing for yourself?

-For myself I would maybe pick Footballers.

-Right.

-And perhaps maybe Snooker or Currency.

-OK.

And the two you'd like to avoid?

-Casanova and Pakistan, maybe.

-OK.

Dinieka, it's the end of the first round.

You still have two more rounds to find Perfection

and choose your own categories for the final. Are you ready to play on?

-Yes, I am.

-Then let's play Round Two.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds start now.

I think that's false, I think they have two children.

False.

-Sounds strange enough to be true, so true.

-True.

-I'm pretty sure that's true. True, yeah.

-True. And finally...

I think that's false. I don't think they're related at all in any way.

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

-That sounded a very definite and positive round.

-I think so.

-I think the only one that I'm really not too confident about is B.

-OK.

Well, before we reveal exactly how well you've done,

time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

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

Richard, Perfection this time?

I can't see anything wrong with that.

I think I'd have put the same answers myself,

-so as far as I'm concerned that's Perfection.

-Would do you think, Des?

Yeah, I think they're pretty good. I might change D.

I might change that to true, they could be brothers.

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

APPLAUSE

Congratulations, Dinieka, you have achieved Perfection.

-That's a great feeling that, isn't it?

-Yeah, amazing.

So, let's have a look at those in more detail.

Bill and Hilary Clinton have three children.

You said false, and of course it is false

because they only have one daughter, Chelsea, in actual fact.

"Two cows are depicted on the flag of Andorra," you said that's true,

and it is true.

"Jeremy Irons stars in the TV drama The Borgias," true or false?

And it is, of course, absolutely true.

And "The TV presenters Gethin and Steve Jones are brothers,"

true or false?

Yes, of course, it is false,

they're not related in any way.

So, Dinieka, as a result of that perfect performance,

you've made winning the prize fund of £2,000 a bit easier.

Let's see the final board.

The places occupied at the moment

are by subject categories chosen by the Usual Suspects,

but because you won that round,

you get to choose two of your own categories now,

so which two would you like to go into the final?

Erm, I think I'm going to pick Footballers.

-Footballers goes in.

-Yeah.

And I pick Snooker because I've watched a bit of snooker,

I've seen live a bit of snooker, so, go for it, Snooker.

OK, Snooker goes into the final.

Usual Suspects, I don't think those were the choices you

-necessarily expected she was going to make, were they?

-No.

-No.

It's time to switch you off for now, we'll see you in the next round.

Smashing. Dinieka, well done, by choosing your own categories

you've hopefully made winning the final easier.

-Are you ready to play the next round?

-Yes.

Let's play on, then, and play Round Three.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds starts now.

Somewhere in the back of my mind that is saying true,

-so, yeah, true.

-True.

Doesn't sound right, I would say false for that.

False.

I know they are in a film, and it's got a strange title,

I'll say true for that.

True, and finally...

Erm, I can't see him being fluent in Russian so false.

False, and with that you answered all four statements. How was that?

Not too great, it was a wee bit tougher.

Yeah, kind of felt like that.

OK, before we reveal exactly how well you've done,

time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So these were the four statements

and next to them are Dinieka's answers. Des, what do you reckon?

Yeah, erm, apart from C, I can't believe

-Status Quo would be in a film, so I would change C.

-James?

I think a blini is a type of pancake, it's a

-very posh pancake, I think.

-Right, Dinieka, the moment of truth.

You need to have answered all four statements correctly

to have won the round. Let's see how many are right.

Three out of four's good, but it's not perfection,

and as a result, the Usual Suspects are back in the game.

Can you steal the round?

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

How confident are you with that pancake, James?

-I'm positive it's a little, kind of, pretentious pancake.

-D'you think?

-Yeah.

-I'm not that convinced on C, so I'd be quite happy to go B.

-Going to go for B?

-Yeah, going for B?

Yeah, can we change B from false to true, please, Nick?

B changes from false to true, leaving A, C

and D as answered by Dinieka.

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

"One of King Lear's daughters was called Regan," true or false?

Yes, it is absolutely true.

"A blini is a type of pancake," is that true or false?

Yes, it is true, very well done, James.

A posh pancake, as you called it,

yeah, it's a very posh pancake for putting caviar on, generally.

OK, "Status Quo star in the 2013 feature film Bula Quo,"

true or false?

Yes, it is true.

"David Cameron is fluent in Russian," true or false?

It's false. Congratulations, Usual Suspects,

you have achieved perfection.

APPLAUSE

Dinieka, the Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed

and they've stolen the round.

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

chances of winning the prize fund much harder.

Let's see the final board.

It's an even Steven game at the moment

with two subject categories chosen by each side.

But because you won the last round, Usual Suspects,

you get to choose the last two.

Which two do you think will trip her up in the final?

Shall we perhaps not choose something that's too difficult

-for ourselves to answer as well?

-No, that's a good point.

-What about 1960s TV?

-I'm happy with 1960s TV, yeah.

-'60s TV?

Erm, yeah, yeah.

-1960s TV, please, Nick.

-1960s TV, and...?

UK Rivers?

-Yeah.

-Yeah, UK Rivers, please, Nick.

And UK Rivers. I particularly like the fact that when James said,

"Let's choose something that we might be able to help with,"

that you guys both went for 1960s TV, and he went, "Erm..."

LAUGHTER

I think there might be a different age thing going on over there!

We now know our six final categories, they are...

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

Erm so what do you make of those last two? 1960s TV?

That's not too bad, I don't think.

I don't want to speak too soon but it seems like an OK category.

And UK Rivers? How are you on geography?

Again, I don't want to speak but I think I'll do OK with the rivers.

OK, so there's nothing frightening you too much on that board?

-You're in with half a chance, aren't you?

-Yeah.

OK, Dinieka, for £2,000, time to play the final.

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

you'll be leaving with a prize fund of £2,000.

If you fail you'll leave with nothing,

which would be great news for the Usual Suspects

as one of them could be here

playing for a rollover of £3,000 on the next game.

Let's play the final round.

APPLAUSE

Dinieka, here are your final six categories.

You must answer all six statements correctly

if you want to win the £2,000. Think carefully, there's no time limit.

Once you've given an answer, your first answer, it will be locked in.

-You OK?

-Yeah.

-You understand?

-Yeah.

-Let's reveal your first statement.

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

San Marino...

Erm...

They've picked a good category on this one.

Erm, I'm not completely sure,

but it sounds like it could so I would say true.

True.

Jazz.

That just doesn't sound right.

Something's telling me that it's not right so false.

False.

Footballers.

Not completely sure.

I'm thinking along the lines of Italian,

guys with luscious long hair,

so, yeah, true.

-Let's go true.

-True.

Snooker.

Think I shot myself in the foot with this one.

Erm, let's just say false.

False.

1960s TV.

Gentle Ben...

Gentle bears, children, gentle...

True, let's just say true, yeah.

True, and UK Rivers?

Maidenhead, Maidenhead...

Not exactly sure with this one.

Maidenhead...

I think, for some reason, something's telling me it's true, so, yeah, true.

True, and with that, you've answered all six statements,

and they are locked in.

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

Which ones are you worried about?

Erm, to be completely honest, I'm not confident at all with any of them.

Erm, but, who knows? It could be a very lucky day.

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

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements

and next to them are Dinieka's answers.

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

but if you think you've made a mistake you can unlock

the board with the help of the Usual Suspects.

This will, however, come at a cost.

Usual Suspects, I'm now going to ask you to tell me

how well you think Dinieka has done, if you want to help,

and if you do, how much it will cost.

So, who would you like to hear from first?

I'd like to hear from Des first, please.

Hi, Dinieka. Erm, to be absolutely honest with you,

there's probably four questions there that I have absolutely

-no clue about, so I'm not going to be much help to you. Sorry.

-OK.

-You set them.

-Well, yeah.

-LAUGHTER

Erm, Richard? What about yourself?

Er, I know you've got at least one wrong, but there are others

that I'm just not sure about at all, and I wouldn't be confident.

And to be honest,

there's not enough money in the pot to risk coming down. I'm sorry.

OK, cool. And James?

Er, I'm afraid I'm going to be absolutely no help whatsoever

because I don't know the answer to any of these,

so keep well away from me, Dinieka.

LAUGHTER Cool, thank you.

That's interesting.

You've set her what you think, James, is a really difficult board.

I think we should acknowledge that it's the other two that

picked the horrible questions and I just kind of went along with it.

-Erm...

-LAUGHTER

OK, Dinieka, none of the Usual Suspects are willing to help

so you're on your own. £2,000 at stake, six answers away,

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

Before we get started, Richard seemed to think there was one wrong.

Which one do you think is wrong, Richard?

A. I think the San Marino Grand Prix...

Estoril is in Portugal as I remember.

Shall we get started, then? And because there is this doubt

-over A, shall we start at the bottom and make our way up?

-OK.

"The River Thames flows through Maidenhead," something was saying

to you that you thought that might be true, so you went with true.

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

Is it true or false?

It's true.

APPLAUSE

"In the TV series Gentle Ben, Ben was a bear."

You said, "Well, it sounds like a bear,

"it's the kind of thing Gentle Ben would be, a bear."

You said true, is it true or false?

It is true.

Two out of two. "John Spencer was snooker's first World Champion."

You said this was false.

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

It is false, very well done.

Joe Davis was the first in 1927.

That's a very good board so far, isn't it?

Halfway to the money all on your own.

"Roberto Baggio was known as the Divine Ponytail." I think there's

a lot of keen supporters of football who wouldn't necessarily know that.

You've said true.

You need this to turn green, is it true or false?

It is true because he had a ponytail and because he became Buddhist,

and so the Divine Ponytail was

the nickname the Italian crowd gave to Roberto Baggio.

So, five out of six? Maybe.

"Eunice Waymon was the real name of Billie Holiday."

You said this was false.

If this turns red you're just one away from the £2,000.

If it's green, of course, the money rolls over for the Usual Suspects.

So, Eunice Waymon was the real name of Billie Holiday, true or false?

False.

Eunice Waymon was in fact Nina Simone.

So, what a board that is so far.

Five out of six, and yet the guys think

you might have got this last one wrong,

"The San Marino Grand Prix takes place in Estoril."

If you're right, this turns green

and you walk away from here with £2,000.

If you're wrong, the money rolls over for the Usual Suspects.

They started out very confident thinking that you might have

made a mistake here. Given the board you've got,

they're probably a little less confident now.

"The San Marino Grand Prix takes place at Estoril."

You need this to turn green.

Is it true or false, for £2,000?

It's false, I'm afraid.

It's false, yeah, the guys were in fact absolutely right.

Estoril's in Portugal,

and the San Marino Grand Prix takes place at Imola.

Dinieka, I'm afraid you haven't achieved perfection,

which means you won't be going home with any of the cash.

Usual Suspects, great news for you, the prize fund rolls over to the

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

APPLAUSE

I think it's fair to say, given the rotten board you

set her there, she played pretty well, don't you think?

-Did very well.

-Extraordinary.

-Only three questions wrong in your entire game.

-Yeah.

So, very well done. I think you should be very proud of that.

-You enjoy yourself?

-Very much so, yeah.

-I enjoyed being a Usual Suspect very, very much.

-It's great fun, isn't it?

Let's hear it for Dinieka.

APPLAUSE

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

hoping to play Perfection today.

-New Usual Suspect, please introduce yourself.

-Hi, I'm Linda.

I'm from Hindley near Wigan and I'm a sales assistant.

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

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

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

-Des, welcome to the game.

-Thank you.

You're one of those fascinating people that just took

a sudden change in direction in life part-way through.

I was sitting on the M25 in traffic, and realised that every year

on the M25 I was spending literally 28 24-hour days on the M25.

A month of my life each year on the M25. Not for me.

I just went home, put the house on the market and away I went.

You were in recruitment and living, you know,

what you would describe as a standard life, and then decided,

"I've had enough of this, I'm going off to the seaside?"

Absolutely. Yeah, I moved down to Cornwall in 2004, erm,

and started diving down there and I've lived there ever since.

You'd been a scuba diver before that point?

Yeah, I'd learned to dive, erm, and then,

when I moved down there I sort of became a professional diving

instructor, erm, and then set up a diving school,

or started working for a diving school

and took that diving school over.

And how's it been since?

Brilliant, loved it. Should have done it ten years before.

Des, it's now you vs the Usual Suspects.

They were your team-mates, you were captain for a little while.

You'd think they were your buddies, but they're not.

They're definitely your enemies.

Here's the good news, nobody's won the last two games.

The prize fund currently stands at £3,000.

APPLAUSE

What are you going to spend it on?

Erm, well, my girlfriend will kill me if I don't take her to Disney World.

-Really?

-She's always wanted to go, she's crazy about Tinkerbell

and anything Disney, and I would love to take her over there.

All right, well, best of luck with it. Three rounds and a final to come,

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

But as soon as Des makes a mistake you'll be back in the game.

-Des, you can talk through your answers without giving away any vital knowledge. Are you ready?

-Yep.

Then let's get started and play Perfection.

Round 1, your 45 seconds start now.

Not the biggest Justin Bieber fan.

-True.

-True.

I thought she went out before that.

-False.

-False.

I would say...false.

False. And finally...

Is it a pup?

No, false.

False. And, with that,

-you've answered all four statements. How was that?

-OK.

-In with a chance?

-Yeah.

I'm not sure on C, if I'm honest,

but I'm reasonably confident.

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 Des' answers.

James, what do you think?

I think he needs to change C.

I'm reasonably sure the Walloon people live between

Belgium and the Netherlands.

-Linda, welcome to the game.

-Hi.

I'm the same. I think he's got three correct

-and I'm not sure about C myself.

-Des, 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, Des, you have achieved Perfection!

Let's have a look at those in a bit more detail.

A...

There's you pretending you're not a big Justin Bieber fan.

-Massive, huge.

-You said true,

and of course, it is true.

Laura Robson reached the 2013 Wimbledon semifinal.

You said you thought she went out in an earlier round, so you said false.

And, of course, it is false.

She was knocked out in the round of 16.

The Walloon people live in the Netherlands.

You said this was false,

and, of course, it is false.

Chiefly found in south-east Belgium and adjacent regions of France.

So sort of Belgium-France border,

as opposed to the Belgium-Netherlands border,

the other side. So, the right sort of area, James and Linda,

but in actual fact it was Des that got it right

on that side of the country.

A baby penguin is called a pup.

You said that was false,

and, of course, it is false.

-Known as a chick.

-Yeah.

Being a bird, of course.

Des, as a result of that perfect performance,

you've made winning the prize fund a lot easier, and here's how.

Appearing before you is your final board.

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

Here are your final-round category options, starting with Adele,

running through Fabrics, Cooking

and on to Rome, with many more in between.

Because you won the round,

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

Which two would you like to play in the final?

-1980s Music, please.

-1980s Music.

-And?

-And...

-Mammals, please.

-Mammals. Very well played.

Usual Suspects, we'll see you in the next round, in the meantime,

let's switch you off. Away they go.

Now the Usual Suspects are gone, let's have a chat about that list.

Pick the two you would like to avoid.

Probably Trees and Fabrics, probably.

And two you'll be choosing next?

Definitely Cooking

and, potentially, Adele.

OK, Des, you've made a great start to the game.

If you're ready, let's keep the momentum going and play Round 2.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds start now.

Oh, God, I've heard of that.

-True.

-True.

Don't think she was. False.

False.

Pomelo, pomelo.

-True.

-True.

And, finally...

Not sure.

-True.

-True. With that, you've answered

all four statements.

-That didn't sound quite so confident?

-No.

An uglier round?

B and D, not good.

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 Des' answers.

James, what do you make of those?

I'm not seeing any obviously wrong ones,

but I'm not too confident either, so I'm going to keep shtoom.

Richard?

I think B is wrong.

I'm pretty sure she was executed in the Bloody Tower.

And I'm not happy about C, to be honest. I might change that.

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

Two out of four.

It's an average score in a game where things are 50-50.

So you have now let your enemies, the Usual Suspects, into the game.

Can you steal the round? You need to

change two answers, but which two?

I'm quite confident with B, that she was executed,

cos that's in the Tower of London.

So, are we happy with B?

-LINDA:

-Yeah, I'm happy changing B.

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

From false to true, and you need to change one other.

A question of C or A, do you think?

-JAMES:

-I think probably C.

A looks like a Vietnamese word.

It starts 'N-Y', which is...

-LINDA:

-Right, right.

-RICHARD:

-Shall we change C, then?

-LINDA:

-Yes.

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

And C changes from true to false,

leaving A and D as answered by Des.

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

Nyugati Station is a railway terminus in Vietnam.

True or false?

It's false, I'm afraid, Usual Suspects.

You had the chance to steal the round from Des,

but failed to achieve Perfection.

I wonder whether you can achieve Perfection at home?

Let's clear that up straightaway.

In Budapest, in actual fact, Nyugati Station.

So, let's move on.

Mary Queen of Scots was executed in the Bloody Tower, true or false?

Yeah, false. Fotheringay Castle, in actual fact,

not in the Bloody Tower.

C...

True or false?

Yeah, that's one is false.

It's a type of fruit. Like a grapefruit.

And Kristen Stewart acted in the 2012 film On the Road.

True or false?

That one's actually true.

So, Usual Suspects, had you achieved Perfection,

you would now have the opportunity to make Des'

chances of winning the prize fund much harder in the final.

Let's look at the final board.

Only two categories chosen so far,

because Des won the first round.

And cos no-one wanted to win the second round,

the two categories that were due to be chosen will now be carried

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

So, you had a chance there, Usual Suspects,

but you failed to grasp it.

I wonder whether you'll rue the day.

Anyway, we'll see you in Round 3. And off they go.

So, with four categories on offer this time round,

-it would be a good one to win.

-Would indeed.

So, let's play Round 3.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds start now.

No, surely not.

-False.

-False.

-That's true, I think.

-True.

No, no. I just can't see that. False.

False. And, finally...

Yeah, I'm pretty confident on that one.

-True.

-True.

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

-A bit better?

-Yeah. Yeah, reasonably.

B and D's fine.

I'm fairly confident on A. C is the kind of tricky one.

Before we reveal how well you've done,

time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

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

Linda, take it away. Tell us what's wrong with those answers.

I'm not happy with B.

I think I'd change B from true to false.

I just don't recall that name,

and I've watched it enough times with my children.

But the other three, looking quite good.

-Richard?

-Yeah, I think B is wrong,

-because I think Akela was a wolf.

-Interesting.

I'm not certain about that.

And I'm not too certain about A,

because I've got a feeling that

Ewan McGregor had a relative in one of the films.

But I couldn't be honest about that.

Des, you need to have answered all four statements

perfectly to have won the round.

Let's find out how many are correct.

An average score again, I'm afraid.

And, as a result, the Usual Suspects are back in the game.

Can you steal the round?

You need to change two, but which two?

-LINDA:

-Change B. Got to change B.

We've all agreed to change B from true to false.

B changes from true to false. Then one other. Which one?

It's either A or C, I think.

-JAMES:

-I think C is false.

-So, shall we go with A?

-LINDA:

-A, yeah.

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

A changes from false to true,

leaving C and D as answered by Des.

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

A...

True or false?

-Yes, actually true.

-Really?

Denis Lawson played a pilot in the original Star Wars.

I think the character was called Wedge.

B...

True or false?

Yeah, false, in actual fact,

because - you all worked it out,

but Richard was most accurate - Akela was a wolf.

So, very well done.

And you know where this is going now, having made those two changes.

C...

True or false?

False. Actually, it is the Pakistan film industry

that's known as Lollywood.

And D...

True or false?

Yeah, it is true, so congratulations, Usual Suspects,

you have achieved Perfection.

Well, Des, that means the Usual Suspects have succeeded

where you failed and they've stolen the round. And this might make it

a bit difficult for you. Usual Suspects, you now have

the opportunity to make Des' chances of winning the prize fund...

well, pretty tough. Let's have a look at the final board.

Because you won the round, Usual Suspects, 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 the previous round.

So, fire away.

-Right, Linda, what do you fancy?

-Adele.

Adele goes into the Final.

-James?

-I'll take Rome, please.

Rome goes in.

I'll put Fabrics. And we've got one between us. What do you think?

-Diseases?

-Quite hard, isn't it, Architecture?

-Diseases, yeah, yeah.

-Diseases.

-Yeah, go on, Diseases.

-Do you fancy it?

-Do I fancy diseases?

-No, we don't fancy Diseases!

-No, in a manner of speaking, yeah.

We'll take Diseases, Nick, please.

LAUGHTER

May you never take diseases.

But nonetheless it's made it into the final.

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

OK, guys, very well played. Time to switch you off for the final time.

-Well, you wanted Adele, so...

-That's all right, yeah.

-Diseases I don't mind.

-Yeah? Fabrics?

-Not so much.

-Rome?

-I'm happy.

-Yeah?

-Yeah.

All right, Des, for £3,000, it's time to play the Final.

APPLAUSE

This is the all-important final. If you can achieve Perfection

you could be leaving with a prize fund of £3,000. If you fail

you'll be leaving with nothing, which is great news for

the Usual Suspects, as one of them could be playing for a rollover

of £4,000 on the next game. So, let's play the final round.

Here are your six final categories.

You must answer all six statements correctly if you want to win

the £3,000. Think carefully.

There's no time limit but your first answer will be locked in.

-Are you ready?

-Yeah.

-Then let's reveal your first statement.

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

1980s music.

Now...

I...I... No, I'm not convinced about that at all.

I know he's that kind of thing, but, no, I'm going to say

-false for that one.

-False. Mammals.

Pretty confident it's a rodent.

Whether it's swamp-dwelling...

-True. True.

-True.

Adele.

No. No, I'm pretty confident she wasn't from Bristol.

-So, that's false.

-False.

Rome.

OK, well, it's a hill. Erm...

-I'm going to go...true.

-True.

Fabrics.

Organza...

Well, think about "organic"...

Silk.

True.

True. And finally Diseases.

Yeah, I've read something about that and I'm pretty confident that's true.

True. And with that you've answered all six statements and they're

locked in. Remember, if there's one single mistake

you leave with nothing. Which ones are you unsure of?

Um...certainly D. Um...

D and E, really.

-D and E are the sticking points?

-Yeah, yeah.

Let's switch on the Usual Suspects.

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final statements

and next to them are Des' answers. Des, your answers are now locked in

-and you can't change them by yourself.

-OK.

-But if you think

you've made a mistake you can unlock the board with the help of

the Usual Suspects. This will, of course, come at a cost.

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

-Er...Richard.

-What do you think?

-Hi, Des.

I think you've got two wrong there, as I can see.

But there are two that I'm just not certain about at all.

So, I wouldn't be any help to you.

-I'm sorry, I'm going to have to rule myself out.

-OK, thanks.

-Who else would you like to hear from? Or no-one?

-James, please.

I'm absolutely positive on all but one. Erm...

Think you may have got one wrong.

But I wouldn't want to risk coming down to help.

OK, thanks, James. Linda?

I'm only happy with four of them, really, but...I'm not confident

on the other two, so...well, it's my first game, I think

I'll stay where I am, if you don't mind.

There is £3,000 in the pot here.

The question is, do you think you need anybody's help?

Maybe you actually want it on your own and you don't need

anybody's help.

They don't sound that confident, I'm not that confident.

-But, hey, I'm prepared to go it alone. I'll give it a go.

-You are?

-Yeah, absolutely.

-£3,000 at stake. Six answers away.

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

-OK, which were the ones you worried about, D and E?

-Yeah.

Let's start with those ones, D and E. Let's start with D.

-You might as well deal with them straightaway.

-Why not?

You said that was true.

If this turns green that's a really good start. Is that true or false?

It is true.

APPLAUSE

E. You said this was true.

This was the other one that you were really worried about.

If this turns green...you must start to feel stronger about your round.

If it turns red the money rolls over for the Usual Suspects

and you go home with nothing.

Organza fabric...is that true or false?

That's true as well.

APPLAUSE

-Feel a bit more confident?

-Yeah, yeah.

Let's go to the top and make our way down. Meat Is Murder...

This was one that you picked for yourself. You said this was false.

If this turns red you are halfway to the money all on your own.

Meat Is Murder...true or false?

Yeah, it's false.

APPLAUSE

1985, The Smiths.

-Yes.

-We then come to B.

A Muscat...

You said true, you knew it was a rodent of some kind.

Is it true or false?

It's false!

-Oops.

-A "Muscat" not a "muskrat."

Hahh...

-It's a variety of wine.

-Is it?

A wine grape.

Also, by the way, the capital of Amman.

But it isn't a swamp-dwelling rodent, so I'm afraid that means

you haven't achieved perfection and you won't be taking any cash home.

I wonder whether you can still achieve Perfection at home.

Let's go through the rest of them, shall we?

So, three right, one wrong.

Adele...you said, no, that's not true.

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

It is false, absolutely.

-Born in Tottenham and grew up largely in London.

-Yeah.

-You only have to hear her speak to know that.

-Exactly.

And finally Dengue fever... you said this was true.

Is it true or false?

Yeah, it's false, in actual fact.

-It's mosquito-bite delivered.

-Ah!

So, four out of six, not bad at all.

Usual Suspects, great news for you, the prize fund rolls over to the

next game where one of you could be playing for a total of £4,000.

APPLAUSE

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

with nothing. Did you enjoy yourself?

Fantastic, had a really great day. Seriously, very, very good.

Des, ladies and gentlemen.

APPLAUSE

Well, 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 £4,000. But remember, four out of six,

like this game, or five out of six, even, is just not good enough.

We only pay for Perfection. Goodbye.
