Episode 8 Perfection

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

Behind this screen, four contestants who 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. We call them the Usual Suspects.

They're in our isolation room.

In a moment, we'll find out which one of them

has been randomly selected to join me here to play Perfection.

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

Would you say that's true or false?

Well, if you said true...

I can tell you you'd be right.

Answering true or false might seem easy,

but if the contestants get 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.

Hi. I'm Becky. I'm from Pontefract.

I'm a public house manager and this is my first game.

I'm Simon from Plymouth.

I'm a bartender, and this is my second game.

I'm Nicky from North Wales. I'm a florist, and this is my third game.

I'm Val from Wigan.

I'm a retired civil servant, and this is my fourth game.

Welcome to you all, especially Becky, our newbie. Best of luck,

as we now find out which one of you has been randomly picked to play Perfection.

Nicky, it's you!

Please come down and join me.

APPLAUSE

Nicky, welcome to the game.

-Thank you, Nick.

-You've had a change of career,

-because you started out doing hairdressing...

-Yes.

-Why did you give it up?

-Family, children, moving around...

I was going to say, it wasn't because you didn't like weddings and doing hair for weddings?

-Because you then moved on to be a florist.

-Exactly.

-So you couldn't get away from weddings!

-No!

-Best of luck with this.

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 your failure would mean the prize money rolls over to the next game,

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

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

nobody won the last game, so the prize fund currently stands at £2,000.

APPLAUSE

What would you spend that on?

We started to build a conservatory two years ago

and blew the money on a mobile home, so perhaps the conservatory needs finishing!

Good luck with that. Here's how the game works. You'll play three rounds and a final.

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

However, if your performance is anything less than perfect,

the Usual Suspects will have a chance to step in and steal the round.

Make no mistake - they will, given the opportunity.

And that will make the final much harder. More of that later.

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

When they're in silhouette like this,

you can talk through your answers with giving away any vital knowledge.

Each round consists of four true or false statements.

You're answering against the clock.

You'll have only 45 seconds and once you've given your answer, your first answer, it'll be locked in. Ready?

-Yeah.

-Nervous at all?

-Scared stiff!

-Are you really?

You look very calm. OK, let's play Perfection.

Round 1. Your 45 seconds start now.

Ooh...not sure about that.

Um...feasible... Yes. True.

True.

Um...

I don't know much about politics. False.

False.

Eek! I've no idea. False.

False. And finally...

-I'd say false for that one again.

-False.

-I've no idea.

I was starting to worry there, but you had it all under control!

How was that as a round - good, bad, indifferent?

-Dreadful!

-Really?

-I've got no clue.

-Couple of guesses there?

-All of them were.

-Were they?

-Every one of them!

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

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

These were the four statements

and next to them are Nicky's answers.

Val, has she achieved Perfection?

I think D may be true,

-not false.

-OK.

Simon, what do you make of these answers?

I'm not too sure on them, to be honest,

so I'm going to have a bit of faith and say yeah, she's got Perfection.

OK. Becky, can you see anything wrong with these answers?

I think they're really tough questions,

but I do think C and D might be true.

All right. Mixed bag of reaction from the Usual Suspects.

It's 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.

Two out of four. It's a 50/50 score on a 50/50 game.

So, really, not particularly good and especially not good

because you've let the Usual Suspects into the game, with a chance to steal this round.

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

You need to change two, but which two?

I think it was Charles I who hid in an oak tree, not Charles II.

-So do I.

-So that's OK, C.

I don't remember hearing about

Robert Watson-Watt regarding radar?

But Watt's to do with electricity.

I think that as well.

So I think that could be true.

Does anybody know who Charlize Theron is?

I think that could be the other one that's false.

-I'll take your...

-Unless D's a trick question, I don't know.

-But I'll follow your lead.

-Right, Nick, we'd like to change A

from true to false.

A changes from true to false.

And D from false to true.

And D from false to true,

leaving B and C as answered by Nicky.

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

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

Charlize Theron starred in the film Young Adult.

Is that true or false?

It's true, I'm afraid.

Not a great start and it means, Usual Suspects,

having had the chance to steal the round,

you failed to achieve Perfection.

I wonder whether you can still achieve Perfection at home?

Let's go through the rest of these and find out where those correct answers are.

David Miliband became Shadow Chancellor in 2013.

Is that true or false?

Yeah, that is false.

He gave up his seat in 2013 to work for the International Rescue Committee charity.

King Charles II once hid in an oak tree. Is that true or false?

That's true.

It was Charles II.

And finally, Robert Watson-Watt was a pioneer of radar.

True or false?

That's true.

So, Usual Suspects, had you achieved Perfection,

you would now have the opportunity to make Nicky's chances of winning the prize fund that much harder.

And here's how.

Nicky, appearing before you is your final board.

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

Here are your final round category choices,

starting with Pop Music, going through Currencies,

Hip Hop, Cricketers and on to Tarantino,

with a few others in between.

Had you achieved Perfection,

you would now have the opportunity of adding two categories of your choice to the board.

But because neither side won the round,

the two categories will be carried over to the next round,

meaning four categories will be on offer.

Usual Suspects, you had a chance there, didn't take it.

I wonder whether you won't get a look-in in the second round.

That's when we'll see you next.

Nicky, now the Usual Suspects have gone,

we can have a little chat about that list.

Pick me two or three you'd like in there.

Pop Music, perhaps, as long as it's not modern,

too modern, anyway.

Animals, UK Birds...

And pick me a few you would like to avoid.

Hip Hop.

Without a shadow of a doubt.

-And Cricketers.

-OK.

Well, in order to win the prize fund, you'll need to answer all six statements correctly.

So, winning this next round, where you get to choose four of the six for the final,

could be pretty crucial.

-Feeling a bit calmer now?

-Yes, thank you.

-OK.

Then let's play Round 2.

APPLAUSE

Your 45 seconds start now.

Ooh! Um...

I've no idea.

No. False.

False.

He certainly does. I've seen it recently, so that's true.

True.

I think that might be Pat Jennings

or somebody else, so false.

False. And finally...

No, it's champagne and orange juice, so that's false.

False. And with plenty of time to spare,

you've answered all four statements.

-That sounded very confident.

-Hmm, not sure about David Seaman now.

All right, before we find out how well you've done,

it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

Hello, Usual Suspects. These were the four statements.

Next to them are Nicky's answers. Simon, has she achieved Perfection?

I don't think she has.

I think she's got B and D incorrect.

OK. Becky, what do you think?

I think A and C

are wrong. I've never seen a trumpet without three valves.

But I'm not sure about C - David Seaman, Peter Shilton...

Can't remember which one got the most caps.

At this point, Nicky, if you were to believe the two of them,

you've got them all wrong!

Let's see what Val thinks.

I think A's wrong.

I think a trumpet does have three valves.

OK. Nicky, the moment of truth.

Let's find out exactly how many are correct.

Given the review from the Usual Suspects,

that's a pretty good result, three out of four!

But it isn't Perfection and that means your enemies,

the Usual Suspects, are back into the game.

You have a chance to steal the round.

You need to change one - which one?

D is definitely false.

It's champagne and orange juice.

You'd know that!

C is definitely false as well, because it is Peter Shilton. He's got 125 caps.

-Going for A, then?

-OK.

-Sure?

We're going for A, please, from false to true, Nick.

A changes from false to true,

leaving B, C and D as answered by Nicky.

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

Modern trumpets typically have three valves. Is that true or false?

That is true. Very well done, Usual Suspects.

You've changed the one you needed to change, so you know where this is going now.

Plan B appears in the 2012 film The Sweeney - true or false?

It is absolutely true. Predominantly known as a musician,

but he has appeared in several films as well.

David Seaman is the most capped England goalkeeper - true or false?

False. You were right, Simon - Shilton, 125, as you said.

A Buck's Fizz is made from champagne and stout - true or false?

It's false. Congratulations, Usual Suspects.

You have achieved Perfection.

Yes, Becky, you're the landlady. So what is a champagne and stout called?

-That's a Black Velvet.

-It is indeed.

-Very nice.

-Champagne and orange juice is of course Buck's Fizz.

Nicky, the Usual Suspects have succeeded where you failed and they've stolen the round.

Usual Suspects, that now means that you have the opportunity

to make Nicky's chances of winning the prize fund of £2,000 quite a bit harder.

Let's see the final board,

currently bereft of subject categories,

because no-one won in the first round.

Because you won that round, Usual Suspects,

you've earned the right to choose four categories -

two from the first round and two from this round.

Which four would you like to play in the final and how would you like to go about choosing?

-I would say Hip Hop maybe.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-Hip Hop, please.

-Hip Hop goes in.

Maybe Film Quotes, cos that could be...

-That could be quite wide.

-Yeah.

Film Quotes, please, Nick.

Film Quotes. We need two more.

-What about currencies?

-I was thinking UK Birds.

Shall we do the two of those?

-UK Birds, please, Nick.

-UK Birds goes in, and...?

-And Currencies, please.

-And Currencies.

Thank you very much, and congratulations, Usual Suspects.

You won the second round. It's time to switch you off, but we will of course see you in Round 3.

Good and bad, that, because you specifically said

-you didn't want Hip Hop, and they went straight to that.

-Yeah.

However, you were actually going to go for Birds.

-Yeah.

-So they chose for you on that.

-Yeah.

Could have been worse. What about Film Quotes and Currencies?

We do watch a lot of movies.

-And Currencies?

-I'm not very good with money.

-Are you not?

-No.

-In what sense?

-Any sense!

Well, the way to go forward is if you can possibly make those last two choices your choices.

-That would really help in the final, so you need Perfection this time round.

-Yeah.

Let's play Round 3.

Your 45 seconds start now.

That's very possible. True.

True.

There's a Rankin who's a chef...

but there could be a Rankin who's a photographer. True.

True.

He certainly did, and fabulous it was as well. So that's true.

True. And finally...

Um...gosh, no idea. False.

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

How was that?

Um...mixed bag again, I think.

-Mixed bag?

-Yeah.

OK. Before we find out exactly how well you've done,

it's time to bring back the Usual Suspects.

So there are the four statements and next to them are Nicky's answers.

Becky, is it Perfection this time?

I don't think so, Nick.

I think A and B are wrong this time.

Simon, do you concur?

I think A's wrong. I thought he was born in Italy somewhere.

Val, what do you think?

I think B's definitely wrong.

Well, they don't think you've done very well this time.

Of course, we need to find out for sure.

How many have you got correct?

Two out of the four again.

Not Perfection.

Which means they're in again, those pesky Usual Suspects, with a chance to steal the round.

You can see Nicky's answers. You need to change two - which two?

I think B, definitely.

I'm pretty certain Leonardo da Vinci was born in Italy.

-I'm with Simon.

-I've heard it somewhere.

-Go for A and B, then?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

OK, Nick, if we can change A from true to false.

A changes from true to false.

And B from true to false.

B changes from true to false,

leaving C and D as answered by Nicky.

Let's find out what the correct answers are.

Leonardo da Vinci was from Madrid.

Is that true or false?

It is false. Quite right, Simon - he is from Italy.

Vinci in Italy - hence the name Leonardo da Vinci.

Rankin is a famous fashion photographer. Is that true or false?

That's true.

Usual Suspects, you had the chance to steal the round from Nicky, but you failed to find Perfection.

Can you still find Perfection at home? Let's take a look at these answers.

David Tennant starred in the TV drama Broadchurch - true or false?

True. And Henry VIII

was born in the 15th century - true or false?

True.

1491.

So, Usual Suspects, had you achieved Perfection,

you would have the opportunity to make Nicky's chances of winning the prize fund that much harder.

Let's look at the final board.

Four categories on there, all chosen by the Usual Suspects.

You could have had a clean sweep,

but as nobody managed to win Round 3,

we have two blank spaces still to be filled.

To fill those spaces, you'll take it in turn to choose a category.

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

Which category would you like to take into the final?

I'll have Animals, please, Nick.

Animals goes into the final.

Usual Suspects, please choose a category.

Maybe Scotland?

She lives in Wales, doesn't she?

-So there might not be a connection there.

-OK.

So, Scotland, please, Nick.

Scotland goes into the final.

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

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

And away they go.

Because you live in Wales,

you won't know anything about Scotland.

Probably true!

Really?

-Animals?

-I've got dogs and I like animals,

so I'm hoping it'll be favourable.

All right, Nicky, for £2,000, it's time to play the final.

APPLAUSE

Nicky, this is the all-important final. If can you achieve Perfection,

you could be leaving with £2,000. 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 £3,000 on the next game.

-And you wouldn't want that to happen, would you?

-No.

Let's play the final round.

Nicky, here are your final six categories. They are...

You must answer all six statements correctly

if you want to win the £2,000.

Think carefully. There's no time limit,

-but once you've given an answer, your first answer, it's locked in. Ready?

-As I'll ever be!

Let's reveal your first statement.

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

Hip Hop.

Oh, my word!

Heard of Kanye West, surprisingly.

Um...true.

True.

Film quotes.

Oh, wow, I've seen The Godfather.

Nobody's perfect...

-True.

-True.

UK birds.

Eagles are quite big,

but there are a lot of buzzards round our way

and they're big birds as well. I'll say false.

False.

Currencies.

Ooh, a lot of countries have the pound.

New Zealand - will it be a dollar?

-False, I think.

-False.

Animals.

No. A tapir is...

um...a bit like an anteater, I think.

-So that's false.

-False.

And finally, Scotland.

Never been to Edinburgh. Would like to go.

-I'll say true.

-True.

And with that, Nicky, those answers are now locked in.

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

-Which ones are you worried about?

-Definitely A and B.

And D. And F.

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 Nicky's answers.

Nicky, your answers are now locked in

and you can't change them by yourself,

but if you think you have made a mistake,

you can unlock them 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 Nicky has done,

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

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

-I'll go for Becky at the end.

There's at least two that I'm not very confident about, Nicky.

So I don't think I'd be much help to you in this round.

-So you're ruling yourself out, Becky?

-I am.

-Thank you.

Simon, please.

I'm almost certain you've got one wrong, possibly a second.

But again, I'm not 100% certain,

so I don't think I'd be much help to you.

-Ruling yourself out, Simon?

-Yeah.

-Thank you.

-Val?

-There's a few I'm not certain on, Nicky,

to be honest, and I wouldn't want to come down

and change the wrong ones for you,

so I'm going to have to rule myself out, I'm afraid. Sorry.

OK, guys, thank you.

Negotiations are over. You are on your own.

So, with £2,000 at stake, six answers away,

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

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

-Top to bottom or bottom to top?

-Bottom to top.

-Bottom to top?

-Yeah, why not?

-OK.

Let's start at the bottom, then.

Edinburgh has been called The Athens Of The North.

You've never been to Edinburgh.

We want this to turn green to get you started off on the right foot.

So is it true or is it false?

It's true - very well done!

A tapir is a species of snake. You were certain on this one.

I think it's a bit like

an anteater-y, four-legged furry thing.

Four-legged furry thing!

It's like being here with Attenborough!

Bit like a rat or something.

Let's find out, shall we?

A tapir is a species of snake.

You said false.

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

It is false. Very well done.

It's kind of like a pig with a small trunk, in actual fact.

The currency in New Zealand is the pound.

You thought it might be the dollar, so you went false.

Is it true or is it false?

Well done - it is false.

And it is the New Zealand dollar, as you surmised.

So very well done.

The white-tailed eagle is the largest UK bird of prey.

You went with false on this one.

We need this to turn red.

If it does, you're just two away from the £2,000.

The white-tailed eagle is the largest UK bird of prey.

Is that true or false?

It's true, I'm afraid.

So, unfortunately, it means that you haven't achieved Perfection

and you won't be going home with the £2,000.

Perhaps you can still achieve Perfection at home.

Let's go through the rest of those statements and check them out.

"Nobody's perfect" is the last line of The Godfather.

You said that was true. Is that true or false?

No, I'm afraid that's false.

It's the last line of the film Some Like It Hot.

And let's see if we can make it four out of six.

Late Registration is an album by Kanye West.

It would be kind of nice if you got this right. Is it true or false?

It is true! Very well done.

-You know your hip hop.

-My daughter's influence, you see!

Four out of six is obviously not Perfection,

so you don't go home with the cash.

Usual Suspects, that's good news for you.

The prize fund rolls over to the next game,

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

APPLAUSE

Nicky, you failed to achieve Perfection,

so you go home with nothing other than our thanks for being a great contestant.

-I hope you enjoyed playing the game.

-Loved it!

-Let's hear it for Nicky.

APPLAUSE

Right, it's time to meet the next Usual Suspect hoping to play Perfection today.

New Usual Suspect, please introduce yourself.

Hello, I'm Terry. I'm from Spalding

and I'm a computer operator in the printing industry.

Welcome, Terry, and best of luck to all of you

as we now find out who has been randomly picked to play Perfection.

Terry, it is you.

Please come down and join me.

APPLAUSE

Terry, welcome to the game. Let's find out a bit more about you.

I know you work in computers, but your specialist interest is Eurovision.

I don't know about specialist interest. I've got a bizarre fascination with it.

I appreciate that it is rubbish!

Every year, I sit there and take notes about certain people.

-You take notes?!

-Just to make my wife laugh as much as anything.

Extraordinary! Also, you've got a big birthday coming up.

Yes, I have. I'm 50 in October.

-Thinking of doing anything new now you're getting to 50?

-I don't know.

There's lots of places I'd like to see.

I've got friends in Australia, some in the States and things like that.

I've been to the States, but I'd like to visit different areas of the world.

Well, best of luck. It's now you versus the Usual Suspects.

Very briefly, they were your team-mates.

Trust me, they are now your enemies.

Here's the good news - nobody's won the last two games. The prize fund currently stands at £3,000.

Nice!

APPLAUSE

It's a decent afternoon's work if you walk out of here with £3,000. What would you spend it on?

I'd spend as much as possible on a nice holiday, or something different for my 50th.

-Taking some of those travel plans into account.

-Definitely.

Three rounds and a final to come.

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

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

Terry, now they're gone,

-you can talk through your answers without giving away any vital knowledge.

-OK.

-Ready?

-Yes, definitely.

-Then let's get started and play Perfection.

Round 1. Your 45 seconds start now.

I think that's false.

False.

-I think that's also false.

-False.

It's possibly true. True.

-True.

-And finally...

I think that's false.

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

It sounded like a very confident round.

-Oh, it wasn't!

-Was it not?

-No!

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

Here's the four statements

and next to them are Terry's answers.

Val, what do you make of them?

Think he's done pretty well.

I'm not sure about C, though.

I think I would change C from true to false.

Simon?

I've been to Mexico

and the population is about 120 million, so that's definitely...

-You had time to count them?

-Yeah! Introduced myself as well.

"I'm from England - hello!"

You get to meet everybody along the way! Very good.

The moment of truth. You need to have answered all four statements perfectly to win the round.

Let's find out how many are correct.

-Ah! Well, that's certainly not Perfection.

-Not at all!

It means you've let your enemies, the Usual Suspects, into the game.

You can steal this round, but only if you can work out

which three of those answers you need to change.

-We all agree on C, don't we?

-Yes.

So, Nick, if we can change C from true to false.

C changes from true to false.

I think the only one right is B.

-Change the others but keep B the same?

-Yeah.

-A from false to true.

-A changes from false to true.

-And D from false to true.

-D from false to true,

leaving B as answered by Terry.

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

Orzo is a type of pasta resembling grains of rice. True or false?

It is true.

The 20p coin was introduced in the UK in the 1980s.

Is that true or false?

That's true.

Oh, dear, Usual Suspects, you had the chance to steal the round from Terry,

but you failed to achieve Perfection.

Let's see the rest of the answers. Maybe you can still achieve Perfection at home.

The population of Mexico is over 280 million. Could that be true?

No, it's false.

113 million,

-so, Simon, you're pretty close to the money there.

-Thank you.

The Italia Conti School teaches journalism. True or false?

Yeah, that's false.

It trains people in theatre arts.

You'll find a lot of actors and singers who have been through the Italia Conti School.

So, Usual Suspects, had you achieved Perfection,

you would now have the opportunity to make Terry's chances of winning the prize fund that much harder.

Here's how. Terry, here is your final board, blank as it is.

These six blank spaces need to be filled.

Here are the final round subject category choices appearing.

Starting with 7 Wonders, running through R&B,

Celebrities, on to Kings and finally The Wire,

with many more in between.

Now, because neither side won the 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 in Round 2.

Usual Suspects, it's time to switch you off,

but we'll see you in a little while.

Terry, now they've gone, we can have a little chat about these without them hearing.

So, pick me a few that you quite like the look of.

I wouldn't mind Father Ted.

Possibly US Geography.

Ones you're trying to avoid?

Prince Harry, and the others, it's 50/50.

All right.

Well, Terry, in order to win the prize fund,

you'll need to answer all six of these correctly, so winning the next round,

-with four categories on offer, could prove crucial.

-Yeah.

Let's play Round 2.

Your 45 seconds start now.

-That's definitely false.

-False.

I'll say true for that.

True.

I think that's false. I think it probably WAS true.

False. And finally...

Can't honestly be 100% sure of that, so I'll say true.

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

That did feel like a more confident round.

B, I think that might be right,

but D, haven't got a clue.

All right.

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

So, Usual Suspects, these were the four statements

and next to them are Terry's answers.

Simon, is this Perfection you see before you?

The only one I have concerns about is C.

Perhaps it's so far-fetched, it might be true.

Val, anything wrong with these answers?

I think C could possibly be true.

If it isn't, it should be!

LAUGHTER

And D, I know it's the Middle East,

but whether it's Iran or not, I'm not sure.

It'd certainly make Question Time a lot more interesting if it was true!

OK, Terry, the moment of truth.

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

Three out of four's not bad.

An improvement, but it's not Perfection.

As a result, the Usual Suspects have the chance to steal the game.

Can you? You need to change just one of Terry's answers, but which one?

It's either C or D, isn't it?

I wondered about C,

because it would go quite far back through the centuries?

So whether they were allowed to duel with swords

and it's not been changed...

-Shall we go with C?

-Yeah.

-Nick, we're going to change C

from false to true, in the hope that it is true.

LAUGHTER

C changes from false to true,

leaving A, B and D as answered by Terry.

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

Peter Cook was a founding member of Monty Python.

Everybody thought this was absolutely false and it is...

False.

Best known for his comedy partnership

with Dudley Moore, of course.

Sir Chris Hoy has won six Olympic gold medals.

Everyone quite sure of this one. Is it true or false?

It is true. What an outstanding feat that was during the Olympics.

MPs are legally allowed to duel with swords.

This is the key one.

We're all hoping it's true. Is it true or false?

It's false!

Usual Suspects, you had a chance to steal the round again

and you still don't want to win!

Extraordinary! MPs are not legally allowed to duel.

It was outlawed in the 1840s.

OK, finally, the Lost Gardens Of Heligan.

Is that true or false?

That's false.

It's actually in Cornwall.

Middle East!

Not in Iran at all. Not that far from you, Simon.

I'm from Cornwall originally - should have known that!

Usual Suspects, had you achieved Perfection,

you would have the opportunity to make Terry's chances of winning the prize fund harder.

Let's have a look at the final board, which is still looking,

well, like a desert, really.

There's nothing on there.

Those four categories that were due to be chosen

will now be carried over to the last round, the third round,

where all six will be on offer.

So, Usual Suspects, that's it for the moment.

We'll see you in Round 3. And away they go.

The truth of the matter is, you can take control of the whole board here all in one round.

And you did better in that round than before.

-This might be the one.

-Hope so!

All right, let's play Round 3.

Your 45 seconds start now.

True.

-True.

-Think that's true.

I'm nearly sure... I'll go false for that.

False.

I'll say true. Don't know.

True. And finally...

Again, I'm not 100% sure, but I'll say false.

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

Are we still in guessing territory?

Oh, yeah, completely!

OK, fair enough! Before we reveal exactly how well you've done,

let's bring back the Usual Suspects.

Right, Usual Suspects, here are the four statements.

What do you make of them?

Let's start with Simon.

I think Terry's done well.

Although I'm a bit unsure about D.

Becky, is this Perfection?

I'm a little bit uncertain about A.

OK. Val, what do you think?

I'm uncertain on A as well. I don't think Rabbie Burns

lived in the 18th century. I think it was before that.

All right, then. Terry, 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.

Four out of four - congratulations! You have achieved Perfection, Terry.

Very well played! Let's take a look at those answers in more detail.

The poet Robert Burns lived in the 18th century...

is of course true.

John F Kennedy was born in England.

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

All US Presidents have to be born in the USA.

-I didn't know that.

-Yeah.

Locked Out Of Heaven is a single by Bruno Mars.

Is that true or false? You said true, and of course it is true.

Steven Spielberg directed the 2012 film The Hobbit.

You said that was false, and it is...

false. It was Peter Jackson. Have you seen it?

-No.

-It goes on forever, honestly. Seriously!

Terry, as a result of that perfect performance,

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

Let's have a look at your final board.

Because you won that round,

you've earned the right to choose the whole board, basically.

-So which would you like to choose?

-Father Ted, please.

Father Ted goes into the final.

-7 Wonders.

-7 Wonders.

-South Americans.

-South Americans goes in.

-R&B.

-R&B goes into the final.

-Crime.

-Crime.

-And French Men.

-And French Men goes into the final.

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

Usual Suspects, he's actually taken all six categories into the final.

We might talk to you later. In fact, I guarantee we will. See you then.

Away they go.

Terry, for £3,000, it's time to play the final.

Terry, this is the all-important final. If can you achieve Perfection,

you could be leaving with £3,000. If you fail,

you'll leave 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.

Let's play the final round.

Terry, here are your final six categories.

You must answer all six statements correctly

if you want to win the £3,000.

Think carefully. There's no time limit,

but once you've given an answer,

-your first answer, it's locked in.

-Yep.

-You ready?

Yes, definitely.

Then let's reveal your first statement.

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

Yes, I'm fairly sure it was Ted Crilly. Yes.

-So you're saying...?

-True.

-True.

7 Wonders.

(Temple of Artemis...)

I think that might be true as well.

-So true.

-True.

South Americans.

I would go true with that as well.

True.

R&B.

No, it's rhythm and blues. That's false.

False.

Crime.

-No, that's definitely false. It was the '60s.

-False.

And finally, French Men.

I think that's false.

-False.

-False.

And with that, you've answered

all six statements and they are locked in.

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

-So which ones are you unsure of?

-Rather embarrassingly,

C I'm quite concerned about, and B, but the rest...

The other four, A, D, E and F I'm fairly confident on.

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

Usual Suspects, you can now see the final six statements

and next to them are Terry's answers.

Your answers are now locked in and you can't change them by yourself,

but if you think you may have made a mistake, you can unlock them with the help of the Usual Suspects.

This will, however, come at a cost.

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

-Simon, please.

I'm 100% certain you've got one wrong,

but to be honest, I'd rather see you lose

and the prize money get bigger for the next game.

-Sorry, Terry!

-No, that's cool.

-Not coming down, then, Simon?

-No.

-All right.

Becky, please.

There's one that I know you've got wrong

and there's one I'm a little bit unsure of,

so I think I'll rule myself out of this game too.

OK. And Val?

What percentage of confidence are you?

I think four of them I'm certain of.

I'd have to rule myself out, then,

because there's only the one I'm confident on.

All right. Negotiations seem to have come to an end.

None of the Usual Suspects are prepared to come down and help,

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

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

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

Let's start at the top.

Father Ted's surname was Crilly.

Is that true or false?

It's true. Very well done.

Good start.

Um...I'm tempted to hop over B and C

because those were the ones you're worried about

and carry on with the rest.

Let's hop over B and C and carry on with D.

In music, R&B usually stands for "rock and blues".

You said this was rubbish - it's rhythm and blues.

So you said false. We're expecting this to turn red.

Is it true or false?

It is false. Very well done.

Usually, rhythm and blues, as you say.

-Occasionally, oddly, rhythm and bass.

-Yeah.

Good start - two out of two. Let's see if we can make it halfway to the money.

The Great Train Robbery took place in the 1980s.

You said that's false, because it took place in the '60s.

-I believe so.

-Is that true or false?

You want it to turn red.

And it has turned red! Very good.

Buckinghamshire in 1963. You were absolutely right. It was in the '60s.

So you're halfway to the money all on your own.

Charles de Gaulle was assassinated.

You need this to turn red.

If it does, you're just two away from the money.

So, Charles de Gaulle was assassinated.

Is it true or false?

It is false.

He survived several attempts on his life,

including one which was the basis of the story Day Of The Jackal.

-If you saw that film or read the book.

-Yes.

OK, so let's go back up to the top

for these two that you were so nervous about.

The site of the temple of Artemis is in Turkey.

-Something made you think it might be true.

-Yeah.

Well, you need this to turn green. If it turns green,

then you are one away from the £3,000 all on your own.

If it turns red, that's it - you go home with no money.

The site of the temple of Artemis is in Turkey.

You need this to turn green.

Is it true or false?

It's true!

APPLAUSE

Football's one of your great passions in life.

I like football.

-I've just gone blank. I don't know where he's from!

-Really?

-Yeah.

I hope he's from Uruguay!

So this really was the guess. This is your 50/50 chance.

Right, fingers crossed for you.

The footballer Lucas Leiva is Uruguayan.

You said this was true.

If this turns green, you're walking out of here with £3,000.

If it turns red,

you go without the money, and the money rolls over for the Usual Suspects.

You need this to turn green.

Is it true or false...

for £3,000?

It's false!

AUDIENCE GROANS

Terry, I'm afraid that means that you didn't achieve Perfection

and as a result, you're not going to be going home with the cash.

How irritating is that on football?!

-What is he?

-Well, let's see.

Simon, do you know?

-That was the one I knew was 100% wrong. He's Brazilian.

-Of course!

That's a shame, Terry. We could have had some money.

You were the one that said no, Simon!

He didn't fill me with confidence.

He only said he was reasonably sure.

-You could have been walking away with £1,000, £1,500.

-I know!

Could have argued up to £2,000 - who knows?

-Never mind.

-Missed your chance there.

But I'm afraid it means, either way, that you don't go away with the cash.

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

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

APPLAUSE

Terry, I'm afraid you failed to achieve Perfection,

which means you go home with nothing but our thanks

-for being a great contestant. I hope you enjoyed it?

-Oh, yes.

Let's hear it for Terry, ladies and gentlemen.

APPLAUSE

That's all we have time for. Please join us again next time,

when our Usual Suspects have the chance to play again, this time for £4,000.

But remember, on this game, five out of six just isn't good enough.

We only pay for Perfection. Goodbye.
