Enthralled with this quiz. Never seen the US version but it is very addictive

I quite like it although I have noticed a number of the contestants such as Emma this week have been on other shows which I'm slightly bitter about given I applied for the show and didn't get an audition!

Googled it to find out what channel. Saw who the presenter is… no thanks.

I love watching this when in America but really struggling with the UK version. Stephen Fry seems all wrong for it, it's too long, and I also think it's on the wrong time slot and maybe channel. It would be better say 7pm/8pm and maybe on bbc.

Yeah I know Emma, she applies for lots of tv quizzies. An excellent quizzer. Standard of contestant is pretty high, not a comment on your quizzing abilities. Lots of OQL/circuit contestants and as you say a fair few you will have seen on other programmes. Emma must be ranked top one hundred players now. Regularly beats (most) Eggheads and Chasers

Regularly beats (most) Eggheads and Chasers I have gaps in my general knowledge so I would have struggled on Jeopardy! as a contestant, my level is more Tipping Point or The Chase. I personally don't begrudge anyone applying for different shows, it's a lot of fun to take part even if you don't win.

I hope there is a second series of Jeopardy! It's been a great watch and tougher than your average ITV daytime gameshow.
Even though I wasn't successful getting on the first series, I'll apply again for the second series.
