    Hi everybody.
    My name is Andy Elkerton, and I’m a children’s illustrator living in the UK.
    Much to my surprise and delight I’ve heard that I was actually mentioned in one of the questions on (I think) the September 22nd edition of the show!

    Because I’m a Brit I can’t actually access any online streaming of the show, so I was wondering if I can be terribly presumptuous and ask if any Jeopardy fans out there might go above and beyond the line of duty and send me a screen cap of “my Question”…if such a thing is possible.

    I know that the show is an institution in the States, and I’m terribly excited about the whole thing.
    If someone could do this I’d be very grateful, you can find my fan page on facebook.

    Thanks and best wishes in advance

    Andy.
