Episode 59 Perfection

Welcome to the quiz show that demands Perfection.

Behind the screen four contestants hope 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, the Usual Suspects.

They are in our isolation room.

In a moment we'll find out which one 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 true or false?

If you said true, you'd be right.

Answering true or false might seem easy

but if the contestant gets a single answer wrong, the Usual Suspects

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

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

Hello, I'm Janet, from London.

I'm a retired social services manager and this is my first game.

I'm Julie, from Reading.

I'm a student studying sociology and this is my second game.

I'm Elaine, from Manchester.

I'm an advanced neo-natal nurse practitioner and this is my third game.

I'm Tom, from Macclesfield.

I'm an English teacher 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.

Julie, it's you! Please come down and play the game.

APPLAUSE

-Julie, welcome to the game.

-Hi.

-Let's find out about you.

-You just qualified?

-Yes, I graduated last week.

-Good for you. In?

-Sociology.

-Was that fun?

-So fun, yeah. I loved it.

-Your ambition isn't necessarily in sociology.

-No, not really...

A little bird tells me you might want to go into news broadcasting.

Yes, I'd love to be a news presenter.

You get to go everywhere, you're the first to hear everything,

and I think I be good at delivering news. You're right!

Best of luck with that and best of luck with this, Julie.

It's you versus the Usual Suspects.

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

Their job is to stop you winning the prize fund,

because your failure means the prize money rolls over to the next game,

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

Every game is worth £1,000.

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

so the prize fund currently stands at £3,000!

APPLAUSE

Excellent!

For someone who's just graduated I'd imagine £3,000 would

-come in quite handy, wouldn't it?

-It really would.

I would love to go travelling a bit.

I went on an aeroplane for the first time last year

and since then I can't stop thinking about it. I'd love to go everywhere.

All right, best of luck. Here's how the game works - You play three rounds and then a final.

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

But if your performance is less than perfect,

the Usual Suspects can step in

and steal the round, making the final harder for you.

More on that later.

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

Julie, now you can talk through your answers without giving away any vital knowledge.

Each round consists of four true or false statements.

You answer against the clock. You have 45 seconds

and your first answer will be locked in.

-Do you understand?

-Yes.

-OK, ready?

-Very ready.

Then let's play Perfection.

Round 1, your 45 seconds starts now.

-I'm pretty sure "Doe, a deer, a female deer" means that false.

-False.

-I've heard of JAL. Um... Yeah, true.

-True.

Um... Gosh, he doesn't sound like he was.

-False.

-False.

Came all the way to Spain?

-True.

-True.

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

-How was that?

-I think I've done fairly well.

I don't think I got zero, so that's a good thing.

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

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

-Tom, what do you think?

-I'm unsure of D.

-Possibly B. But apart from that, all right.

-Janet,

-welcome to the game. What do you think?

-Thank you.

I think A is wrong because my neighbours used to keep rabbits

and I'm sure I remember them talking about bucks and does.

OK, Julie, the moment of truth. You need to answer all four perfectly to win the round.

Let's find out how many are correct.

-Oh, no!

-Oh, no!

It's a zero round, I'm afraid.

If you'd got one statement right the Usual Suspects would have

had to find the missing answers for you.

But, Usual Suspects, there's no point asking you to change

the answers because all four are wrong.

So you automatically when the round. Let's fill in the Usual Suspects' answers,

which are the opposite of yours, obviously.

And, Usual Suspects, by default,

you have achieved Perfection.

Let's go through those in more detail.

The word "doe" can mean a female rabbit -

that is of course true, exactly as Janet said.

Her neighbours were right.

JAL is the national airline of Jamaica, true or false?

-Yeah, that's actually false. The national airline of Japan.

-Oh.

Air Jamaica is the national airline of Jamaica.

The cyclist Bradley Wiggins was born in Belgium, true or false?

That is of course true, weirdly enough.

And the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic began in Australia, true or false?

And that is false.

Often said to have started in China, but the first place it was

widely reported was Spain, that's why it became known as Spanish Flu.

Usual Suspects, you have the opportunity to make Julie's

chances of winning the prize fund a bit harder in the final.

Here's how. Julie, this is your final ball appearing.

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

Here are your final round category options.

If you'd won the round you'd have the opportunity to choose two subjects of your choice.

But because the Usual Suspects nicked the round, they get to choose

the two categories, hoping to make the final harder for you to win.

Which two would you like, Usual Suspects?

-Che Guevara, maybe. That's off the wall.

-Yeah, it is off the wall. Yeah.

-Let's go for it.

-Let's go for Che Guevara first, please.

Guevara goes in. And one more.

-I think she'd be good with fashion.

-Yeah.

-How about mythology?

-What was her degree in?

-Sociology.

-It was an ology!

-Ology.

Right, we'll go for mythology, then.

Mythology goes in. Congratulations, Usual Suspects.

You won the first round.

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

-These two that they've chosen - Che Guevara?

-What is that?

-You'll find out in the final when I ask the question.

-I guess I will.

-Mythology?

-I'm OK with mythology.

I've got general knowledge of mythology, so yeah, why not?

Which two are you most hoping to avoid?

Opera and...Pandas.

OK. And you you'd choose given the opportunity?

Film Sequels and also 2013 Hit Singles.

All right, then, let's play Round 2.

Your 45 seconds start now.

Er... Peak District, Lake District...

-True.

-True.

Oh, wow. All four?

-Um...false.

-False.

I've never even heard of Swiss chard.

-Um... Hey, it could be. True.

-True.

-Um...I'm going to say that's true, too.

-True.

And with time to spare you answered all four statements. How did that feel?

I felt less nervous but I don't know any of those, so we'll see how I do.

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

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

Elaine, has she achieved Perfection

or do you think it's a zero round? What do you think?

I think you've done well. I think it's better than last time.

I would query C.

Swiss chard is a vegetable but I'm not sure it's an onion,

so I think I'd say that was false.

-Tom?

-Hmm. D - I've not really heard of England playing

in the Bangalore Cup, but I don't really follow cricket that much.

All right. Julie, the moment of truth.

You never say you think things are wrong, do you, Tom?

You have doubts but you never actually get around to

-committing yourself.

-I can't commit!

-You've summed me up.

-Is that true in life, too?

-It might be.

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

Two out of four.

It is an average score,

and as a result you let the Usual Suspects into the game.

Can you steal the round? You can see the answers Julie gave.

You need to change two of them, but which two?

We know that C is wrong, don't we?

Well, we THINK it's wrong, yeah, so... What do you think?

OK, we'll go for C. What about the next one?

We're leaning towards the... We're leaning towards D, aren't we?

-OK, go on.

-OK, we'll change C and D, please.

C changes from true to false

and D changes from true to false,

leaving A and B

is answered by Julie.

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

Chatsworth House is in the Peak District, true or false?

Yes, true.

Hugh Laurie was in all four series Blackadder, true or false?

False. He wasn't in the first series, in actual fact.

Swiss chard is a variety of onion, true or false?

Yeah, that's false. It's a variety of beet, similar to spinach.

England play India for cricket's Bangalore Cup, true or false?

False.

So congratulations, Usual Suspects,

you have achieved Perfection.

No such cricket trophy exists at the Bangalore Cup.

OK, Julie, the Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed

and they've stolen the round.

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

chances of winning the prize fund of £3,000 a good deal harder.

Let's see the final board.

Two subject categories chosen by you already,

and because you won that round you choose the next two as well.

I think Anatomy might be a good one.

I agree. What do you reckon?

Yeah, that's a good one.

OK, we'll throw Anatomy in there.

Anatomy goes in, and one more.

-Berries?

-Berries.

Can we put Berries in, please?

And Berries goes into the final.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects,

you won the second round.

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

-You didn't mention those, so I presume you're reasonably happy with those.

-Berries...

I don't know what that could be about.

Anatomy, I had a poster of human anatomy

in my room for about eight years,

so let's hope something stuck.

-Shall we play on?

-Yes, please.

-Let's play Round 3.

Your 45 seconds start now.

Um...

-He's quite funny, that's quite funny... Why not? True.

-True.

-Um... That's crazy enough to be chosen.

-True.

I think I've heard of this before, actually.

I don't know if it was Brian, though.

-Um... Yeah, true.

-True.

Never heard of a pitcher plant.

-Um... I'm going to say false.

-False.

Good use of time to think those through. How are you doing?

I think B might be OK and maybe C.

But those are the only two I'm quite happy about.

Before we reveal how well you've done,

time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

These are the four statements and next are Julie's answers.

Janet, we'll start with you this time. Has she achieved Perfection?

No, I don't think she has.

A, I'm sure is wrong.

Elaine, do you agree?

I'm not sure about D.

We used to have a plant at home

called a Venus fly trap.

I've not heard of a pitcher.

I possibly would say that.

Julie, the moment of truth. You need to answer all four statements perfectly to win the round.

Let's see how many are correct.

Two out of four again.

It's what they call an average score,

and the Usual Suspects are back in the game. Can you steal the round?

You can see Julie's answers,

you need to change two.

I reckon it's A and B. What do you guys reckon?

I sort of see Benny Hill in this white-checked outfit.

-I don't know... Yeah.

-D, I think is one of the wrong ones.

-A and D, last chance.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

OK, can we switch A and D around, please?

A goes from true to false

and D goes from false to true,

B and C as answered by Julie.

All right, Usual Suspects,

let's find out what the correct answers are.

Benny Hill appears in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, true or falls?

It was true, in actual fact.

Usual Suspects, you have the chance to steal the round,

but you failed to achieve Perfection.

Can you can still achieve Perfection at home.

The word Samurai means "way of the sword", true or false?

That's false, in actual fact. Samurai is a Japanese warrior.

Kendo means "way of the sword", in actual fact.

Marilyn Manson's real first name is Brian, true or false?

Yes, hilariously, it is Brian.

Pitcher plants trap insects in order to digest them, true or false?

That's actually true.

Usual Suspects,

had you achieved Perfection you would now have the opportunity to

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

Let's take a look at the board.

No-one managed to win Round 3,

meaning we have two category

spaces to be filled.

How are we going to do that?

We take it in turns, and Julie, you get you choose first.

So which subject category would you like to take as your only

choice into the final?

Could I have 2013 Hit Singles, please?

2013 Hit Singles goes into the final.

Usual Suspects, please choose the

last category to compete our list.

-Any offers?

-Pandas?

Yeah. Yeah, can we put Pandas in there, please?

Pandas goes into the final.

We now know our final

six categories. They are -

Usual Suspects, well played. Time to switch you off for the final time.

-You didn't want Pandas, did you?

-No.

That's a rotten board they gave me.

All right, Julie, for £3,000, it's time to play the final.

Julie, this is the all-important final.

If you achieve Perfection you could leave with a prize fund of £3,000.

If you fail, you leave with nothing,

great news for the Usual Suspects, as one of them

could play for a rollover of £4,000 on the next game.

Let's play the final round.

Julie, here are your final six categories.

You must answer all six

statements correctly

if you want to win the prize fund

of £3,000. Think carefully.

There is no time limit, but your

first answer will be locked in.

-Ready?

-Yeah.

-Then let's reveal

your first statement.

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

So should Che Guevara is a person!

OK.

Highgate Cemetery... Where is Highgate Cemetery?

Um, I'm going to say that is...

-true.

-True.

Right. So, I know Achilles...

had a weak spot in his heel...

Whether he killed Cerberus or not, I'm not so sure.

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

-False.

Right...

Um...I've never heard of the macular lutea.

-Going to say that is false.

-False.

Loganberry.

I've never even heard of a loganberry.

I'm trying to imagine what it could look like.

I got a cloudberry in my head as well. I'm going to say that's true.

True.

2013 Hit Singles.

Feel This Moment...

I'm pretty sure that if they hit for Christina Aguilera.

-Or Pit Bull or something like that, but not Shakira. False.

-False.

Finally, Pandas.

Would they hibernate?

Um...

Gosh. I'm trying to imagine what a panda would do.

-Yeah, true.

-True.

And with that, all six answers are locked in.

If there is one single mistake you leave with nothing.

-Which ones are you worried about?

-All of them!

I think maybe B might be correct and I think maybe C might be correct.

I have no idea who Che Guevara is, so A. I'm quite happy with E.

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 Julie's answers.

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

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

the board with the help of the Usual Suspects.

But this will come at a cost.

Usual Suspects, tell me how well you think Julie has done.

If you want to help, how much will it cost?

Julie, who would you like to hear from first?

Let's go for Tom first, please.

It's not Perfection, I'm afraid.

There's two I'd like to help with,

but I think I'm going to wait for a more enticing board.

So I'm out, I'm afraid.

-OK, Elaine.

-There's one wrong, definitely.

-Could we maybe barter?

I'm quite confident...

I'd love to come and help you,

but there is another one I'm unsure of and...

Come back to me.

-Brilliant, OK. Janet?

-Yeah, I don't think you've achieved Perfection.

I think you've done very well, but I think there are two that are wrong.

-Oh.

-Are you going to help, Janet, or not?

-No, I'm not going to help.

Although I think you're absolutely lovely,

I'm not 100% confident, so I'd rather not.

So Elaine hasn't quite so definitely no yet.

Do you need anybody to help you? Maybe you can achieve Perfection

-on your own. Maybe they're bluffing.

-You never know.

Elaine, I'm quite confident about five of them, actually.

I would be really happy if you came down for 1,700, over half.

I'd love to share that with you with you

if you came down and helped me.

-I'm going to have to say no. I'm so sorry, Julie.

-Ohhh...

-So sorry.

-OK.

You're saying no.

So nobody is coming down to help out, am I right?

OK, negotiations have been concluded.

Julie, the Usual Suspects are unwilling to help,

so you're on your own. £3,000 at stake. Six answers away.

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

Let's start at the top.

Che Guevara's body is buried in Highgate Cemetery.

You're up against this because you said,

-"What is a Che Guevara?"

-Yeah.

Discovering that a Che Guevara's body is buried,

you decided it must be a person at some stage.

But you're up against it with something like that.

But you had to plump for true or false and you went for true.

Is it true or false?

-I'm afraid it's false.

-AUDIENCE GROANS

I'm afraid you have fallen at the first hurdle and you have not

achieved Perfection, so you will not be taking home the prize fund.

I wonder whether you can still achieve Perfection at home.

Let's get into a bit more detail.

He was a South American revolutionary, by the way, in case you were wondering.

It's disputed where he was buried. It may be Bolivia, maybe Cuba...

-Oh, dear.

-Nonetheless, it's definitely not Highgate Cemetery.

-I definitely know who he is now!

-Yeah.

In Greek myth, Achilles killed Cerberus. You said this was false.

We like this to turn red for you. True or false?

Yeah, it is false. Very well done.

No-one is credited with killing Cerberus.

The macula lutea is part of the eye. You thought it was false.

Is it true or false?

Yeah, that's actually true. A ripe loganberry is yellow in colour.

You said this was true. True or false?

It's false, in actual fact.

It's a deep red colour.

I feel better now that I've got quite a few wrong.

Feel This Moment was a 2013 hits for Shakira.

-This was the subject category you chose.

-Yeah.

Be nice to get this one right. You said false. Is it true or false?

Yeah, it is false. Very well done.

Pit Bull, featuring Christina Aguilera, exactly as you said.

I knew it!

In the wild, giant pandas hibernate. You said this was true.

True or false?

No, I'm afraid it's false.

Pandas don't carry enough fat to be able to hibernate.

So, 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.

Julie, you failed to achieve Perfection.

-You found it a bit scary.

-Yeah.

-You are going home with no cash,

but I hope you enjoyed it to some extent.

I'm going home with lots of new friends and experiences

and it's been really fun. Nice to meet you, too!

That's very nice. Let's hear it for Julie, ladies and gentlemen.

APPLAUSE

Right, time to meet the next Usual Suspect

hoping to play Perfection today.

New Usual Suspect, please introduce yourself.

I'm Darrell, I'm from Bournemouth, I'm a telecom sales engineer.

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

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

Darrell, it's you!

-Please come down and join me.

-Hallelujah! Thank you!

APPLAUSE

-Darrell, welcome to the game.

-I'm absolutely delighted.

Can't believe it. I was sort of dragged out screaming

-and dragged in screaming.

-Screaming with happiness I hope.

Let's find out a little bit more about you, Darrell.

You spent a long time in the navy.

I did, yes, I left school at 17 and I joined the Royal Navy.

I did practically ten years in the navy.

-I went down the Falklands in '82.

-So you had some pretty exciting times.

Pretty exciting.

So I'm surprised to find that in actual fact you'd rather

-have been a vet.

-Yes, I would. Yes, on reflection, absolutely.

I've had some fantastic travels, I've seen lots of the world,

but I think, first and foremost, I still adore my animals.

-Never too late.

-I think you'd have to spend six years studying.

-I'd be probably the oldest vet in town.

-Possibly.

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

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

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

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

Fantastic.

So let's assume you win that in the next few moments.

-What are you going to spend it on?

-First and foremost,

what I would like to do is take a long weekend or a holiday

somewhere, get the decorators round, decorate the house, turn it sort of

pink and crimson, all the colours of the rainbow, making my house perfect.

Lovely. Very nice. Best of luck. Three rounds and a final to come.

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

so you can't hear or see anything,

but as soon as Darrell makes a mistake you'll be back in the game.

When they're like this you can talk through your answers without

giving away any vital knowledge, OK? Shall we get started?

-Yes, please.

-Let's play Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Round 1. Your 45 seconds start now.

-False.

-False.

-I would say true.

-True.

No, I definitely disagree with that one.

It's in the Caribbean, so I will say that is false.

False. And finally...

-I think they were actually, so I'm going to say true to that one.

-True.

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

-How was that?

-It was fine, I think.

In with a chance of Perfection, do you think?

Possibly got three of those right. I think I may have one wrong, but...

-Which one are you worried about?

-I'm worried about one, A.

A, OK, Louis Pasteur. 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 Darrell's answers.

-Tom, has he achieved Perfection?

-I think he has, you know.

B could be a tricky one.

It could be a trick question as in Patrick or Patricia,

but other than that I reckon he's on the money.

Janet, can you see anything wrong with those answers?

It pains me to say so, but I think he might have Perfection.

Yes, Darrell, 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, Darrell, you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Very well played. Let's have a look at those in more detail.

Louis Pasteur invented margarine. True or false?

Yeah, of course it is false.

Invented by a French scientist in the 1860s, in actual fact.

The Booker Prize-winning author is Pat Barker is female.

And that's, now we know, true.

The island country of Grenada is in the Indian Ocean.

You said that was false and it is false.

You said it was in the Caribbean and it is in the Caribbean.

-Have you been there?

-Yes.

You were bound to get that one right, weren't you?

The Spice Girls' first six singles were UK number ones. True or false?

It is, of course, true. So, very well done.

As a result of that perfect performance, you've now made

winning the prize fund that little bit easier, and here's how.

This is your final board appearing.

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

Here re your final round category options.

Starting with the UN,

running through Widdecombe, Rivers and on to Liqueurs,

with many more in between. Now, because you won that round,

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

-So, which two would you like to play?

-I think I'll go with Liqueurs.

Liqueurs goes into the final.

-And I will go with Rivers.

-And Rivers goes in.

Usual Suspects, you didn't get a look in there.

We'll see you in the next round. Cheerio.

Right, now they've gone, let's have a look a that list then.

Which two will you be hoping to avoid?

Widdecombe and Seafood.

And two that you'd kind of like to be choosing

if you get the opportunity?

London and possibly Acids.

All right. Darrell, you've made a great start to the game.

-Are you ready to continue?

-I am, thank you very much.

Then let's play Round 2.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds start now.

-I'd say that's true.

-True.

-I believe that's true as well, actually.

-True.

I disagree with that.

I think it was in China, so I'm going to go for...false.

False. And finally...

Well, I should know that being in the navy for so long.

So I'd never get this one wrong. I'm going to say that that is false.

False.

OK. So that felt like a very strong round again.

-Your enjoying yourself, aren't you?

-I am, fine, thank you.

-All right.

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

to bring back the Usual Suspects.

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

Elaine, is it Perfection again?

I think A's wrong.

I think that Jose Mourinho was probably born in the late 1960s,

just before the start of the '70s. So I would make that false.

-Interesting. Tom?

-I've got an inkling that B's wrong as well.

-I think Thiamine is not a B vitamin.

-All right.

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

Thank you.

Just two out of four on this occasion.

And in a game where it's true or false,

ie 50/50, that is an average score.

As a result, you've let your enemies, the Usual Suspects,

into the game. Can you steal the round?

You can see Darrell's answers, you need to change two.

Well, I think it's A. Cos that would make him,

-what, 43, and I think he's a little bit older than that.

-OK.

Right, can we change A to false, please?

A changes from true to false. But you need another one, too.

Do you reckon Thiamine is a B vitamin?

-That was my initial thought.

-I do, yeah.

-You do?

-Yeah, I do.

Er, Dragons' Den possibly from Japan.

-Maybe that's one that we're most unsure of.

-Yeah.

-So shall we go for that?

-Yeah, go for it.

OK, cool. Right, could we change C to true, please?

C changes from false to true, leaving B and D

as answered by Darrell. All right, Usual Suspects,

let's find out what the correct answers are.

Jose Mourinho was born in the 1970s. True or false?

False. Very well worked out, Usual Suspects. Born 1963, in actual fact.

Thiamine is another name for vitamin B1. True or false?

True. And, of course,

Elaine with her nursing knowledge should've known that, and did.

The TV series Dragons' Den originated in Japan. True or false?

True. Very well worked out, Usual Suspects.

You know where this is going now.

The bow is the rearmost part of a ship. True or false?

False. Congratulations, Usual Suspects,

you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Darrell, the Usual Suspects have stolen the round from you.

As a result, Usual Suspects, you now have the opportunity to make

Darrell's chances of winning the prize fund of £4,000 a lot harder.

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

you earned the right to choose the next two categories to go in.

So, which do you fancy?

-I think US Sitcoms is a tricky one.

-Yeah.

-OK then.

-Go for that?

-Yeah.

-US Sitcoms, please.

-US Sitcoms goes in.

And one more.

-Bruce Willis, that's a random one.

-Go on, then.

-Yeah?

-Bruce Willis, please.

-Bruce Willis goes into the final.

Congratulations, Usual Suspects, you've won the second round.

It's time to switch you off. We'll see you in Round 3.

-US Sitcoms?

-Yes, I've seen a few.

-Bruce Willis?

-Bruce Willis, I've seen most of his movies.

Are you ready to go on?

-I am, thank you.

-Let's play Round 3.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds start now.

Hmm, I've never heard of that term. Erm...

I'm going to go for an initial gut feeling, which is that that's false.

False.

-Definitely believe that's false.

-You need to watch the time. False.

You need to keep an eye on the time now.

-I think that's true.

-True. And finally...

I've never had it, uh, but I'm going to say it's true, so I can go 50/50.

True.

How did that feel as a round?

Well, I think I only know one of those absolutely for sure,

which is B, which is probably the one I've got wrong. But er...

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

time to bring back those Usual Suspects.

So, these are the four statements,

and next to them are Darrell's answers.

Janet, it's your turn to start this time. How do you think he's done?

I think he's done very well. I'm not sure about C.

All right. Elaine?

I thought C. I'm not sure I've heard of Michael Bay as a film director.

Apologies if you are, but I would say that.

All right, Darrell, the moment truth. You need to have answered all

statements perfectly to have won the round.

-Let's see how many are correct.

-OK.

Wow! It's not moving.

It's a zero round I'm afraid

and you haven't managed Perfection there at all.

Usual Suspects, there's no point in asking you to change the answers

because we know all four are wrong, so you automatically win the round.

Let's fill in the Usual Suspects' answers which are the exact

opposite of Darrell's. There we go.

Usual Suspects, by default, you have achieved Perfection.

APPLAUSE

Let's go through them in more detail.

A 'toyger' is a domestic cat breed with striped fur.

We now know that to be true.

And Norway has a border with Russia.

True.

It's about 120 miles in the far north-east of the country.

Michael Bay directed the film The English Patient.

We know that to be false.

Michael Bay tends to do things like Transformers and things,

those kind of films.

The English Patient was directed by Anthony Minghella.

Kielbasa is the type of Turkish seafood soup.

We know that they now to be false.

-It's an Eastern European sausage.

-Oh, right.

Now, Usual Suspects, you have the opportunity to make Darrell's

chance of winning the prize fund that bit harder.

Let's see the final board. This is your final board.

It is a 50-50 board at the moment.

Two chosen by you, two chosen by the Usual Suspects

and it is about to tip in their favour because by default you

won the round which means you get to choose the next two categories.

-Which two would you like?

-Seafood is jumping at me for some reason.

-I don't know why.

-Yeah, shall we go seafood?

-Yeah, what the heck.

-Seafood please.

-Seafood goes into the final and?

-Shall we put Roman Numerals?

-I don't know, he might know Roman Numerals.

What about The UN? That sounds pretty vast.

He seems a cultured man. Maybe not the UN.

OK do we go for the Widdecombe? The other obscure or...?

We have to make our minds up.

-We're terrible at making our minds up.

-Yeah. Widdecombe please.

OK, Widdecombe goes into the final as well.

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

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

Well, they have nailed it there,

with two you decided you didn't want.

I think I probably will be OK with seafood, but Widdecombe,

unless it's a part of Devon, I'm doomed.

OK. All right, Darrell for £4,000 it's time to play the Final.

Darrell, this is the all-important Final.

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

If you fail, you leave with nothing, which is

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

playing for a rollover of £5,000 on the next game.

Let's play the final round.

Darrell, here are your final six categories. You must answer

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

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

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

-I'm ready...

Then let's reveal your first statement.

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

I've been drinking that all my life. Erm...

I don't know if it's from Spain,

but it is an almond flavoured liqueur So I'm going to say that's true.

True.

Rivers.

-I'd say that's true.

-True.

I believe that was true.

True. Bruce Willis.

This is ironic actually, I have seen the film, erm...

Bruce Willis, Pulp Fiction,

all three have got to be correct for that to be true.

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

-False.

-Seafood now.

-Yes.

I know the sauce has got tomato in it.

I have had Lobster Thermidor and it does come with that red sauce,

so I'm going to say that's true.

True. And finally, Widdecombe.

There's a few famous celebrities with the name Ann.

And it's a case of whether they got before Ann to place an autobiography

with the name... Ooh... I'm going to say that's true.

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

Remember, one single mistake and you leave with nothing.

Which ones are you worried about?

-Well I've got the first one.

-Really?

-I have indeed.

It's not almond, it's aniseed. So I've made a mistake there.

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

Usual Suspects, you can see the final six statements

and next to them are Darrell's answers.

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

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

unlock them with the help of the Usual Suspects.

This will however come at a cost.

Darrell, who would you like to hear from first?

Hello, Tom, could I hear from yourself first, my friend?

I can tell for a fact that you've got one wrong. Erm...

I'd like to come down and help you, but it'll cost you three grand.

I'd like to come back to Tom, but I think 3,000 is a big ask.

-Janet, can I hear from you please?

-Yeah, I think you've got to wrong.

-I'm not prepared to come and help.

-Thanks, Janet. Thanks very much.

-You're welcome.

-Right down the middle, Elaine, can I hear from you please?

Yeah, I think you've done well, I think there's one wrong.

I could be a cheaper date than Tom.

Erm, I could come down for two grand.

How certain are you that the other five, you believe are correct?

Yeah... Yeah, I'm certain.

-Certain?!

-Mm-hm.

I'll give you one more opportunity, Tom.

Erm, I'll form a gentleman's agreement

and meet you halfway for two.

So Tom will come down for two, Elaine will come down for two.

-I'll go for

-1900. Well!

Elaine's offering 1,900 now to undercut Tom.

That's what they call pipped at the post, Tom. I'm very sorry, my friend.

I'd like to bring Elaine down.

Elaine, for £1,900 of the £4,000,

are you happy to come down and join us?

-Yes, I will do that. Thank you.

-Then come down and play Perfection.

OK, Darrell, you've asked Elaine for help.

If you achieve Perfection it will cost you £1,900 of your potential prize fund of £4,000.

Elaine, you've now forfeited your chance of playing in the next

game. This is your only shot at winning Perfection,

have you made the right decision? I think we'll find out.

All six answers are now unlocked.

You two need to have a chat about what you want to change.

Go ahead, Darrell, which was the one you weren't sure off?

-Can I ask yourself first, if you don't mind?

-Erm...

I wasn't sure of A.

I think A was possibly wrong.

Right. OK.

Which one did you think?

Well, I thought A was wrong. OK. Erm...

-And your reason why you think it's wrong?

-Because...

Hercule Poirot drink it, I'm an Agatha Christie fan.

He drinks Pastis and he's Belgian.

-I don't know why, that's just what made me think.

-Right.

Well, that's not the reason why I don't think it.

I believe Pastis is aniseed.

-I'm pretty certain that A is wrong, for different reasons.

-Yeah.

So I think we're a consensus here.

OK. So is there anything you'd like to change?

Would you like to change...?

This Lobster Thermidor, we're definitely...?

-Yeah. I think we're all right.

-I'm sure Lobster Thermidor is the only

way, because if you think of cocktail sauces, prawn cocktails and so forth.

-I can see the colour.

-The colour is there.

-Yes, I'm with you.

-Right. We have made a decision.

-Go ahead.

-Can we change A, please.

A changes from true to false.

Is there anything else you want to change before I lock the answers in?

I think we're happy with B, C, D, E, F to remain as they are.

-Thank you very much, Nick.

-OK, we'll lock all those in.

Your answers are now locked in. £4,000 at stake.

£2,100 to Darrell, £1,900 to Elaine. Six answers away.

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

Right, let's start with the one you've changed

because we can find out.

Darrell, the moment you actually said your answer to this one,

you thought you'd made a mistake and you were quite

keen for someone to come down and join you so you could change it.

So when Elaine turned up and said she thought the same one was

wrong, you were quite happy to do that.

Pastis is an almond-flavoured liqueur from Spain.

You originally said true,

Elaine gave you the opportunity to change it to false.

You had different reasons for changing it.

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

Is it true or false?

Yeah, it is false.

It's an aniseed-flavoured liqueur from France, exactly as you thought.

So, Darrell, if Elaine hadn't come down you'd be going home with no money at this stage.

As it is, you live to fight on with statement B.

The River Yangtze flows through Beijing.

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

It's false, I'm afraid.

It means you haven't achieved Perfection

and you won't be going home with the prize fund.

I wonder whether you can achieve Perfection at home.

Let's have a look at that answer specifically.

The Yangtze is further south and reaches the sea near Shanghai.

Let's go onto the next one. Herman Munster's son was named Pugsley.

You both thought this was true. So we expect this to turn green.

Is it true or false?

It's false in actual fact. He was called Eddie.

I think what you're doing there is mixing up Herman Munster

-and the Addams Family. Their son was named Pugsley.

-Oh! Addams Family!

We've bombed together.

Bruce Willis played a wrestler in Pulp Fiction, you said false.

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

Yes, it is false. He was in Pulp Fiction.

He was a professional boxer. Not a wrestler.

Lobster Thermidor is served in a tomato since. You said true.

You both thought this was true.

Is it true or false?

-It's false in actual fact. It's a cream sauce.

-Really?!

Lobster Thermidor is a cream sauce, yes.

And finally, Strictly Ann is and Widdecombe's autobiography,

is that true or false?

Yeah, that's true.

So in the end you got three out of the six right with Elaine

helping you to get to the third one.

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

next game when one of you could be playing for a total of £5,000.

Darrell, Elaine, you failed to achieve Perfection which means you

go home with nothing other than our thanks for being great sports.

-I hope you enjoyed playing.

-Fantastic, really enjoyed myself.

-Yes, it was a great experience.

-Let's hear it for Darrell and Elaine.

Thank you very much.

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 £5,000.

But remember, on this show we only pay for Perfection. Goodbye.
