Warning: This page may contain spoilers for the January 18, 2024 game of Jeopardy! UK, especially for those of you watching delayed or on-demand. This page will be updated during each commercial break as the show airs.
Today’s contestants:
Dan Adler, an IT consultant from Farnham
Asha Chumber, a finance manager from London
Michael Hutchinson, a maths teacher from Reading (4-day total: £23,926)
Andy’s Pre-Game Thoughts:
Today, Michael Hutchinson, the Reading maths teacher, attempts to win his 5th game; if he does win, he would become the first player in this UK version of the show to win five. In his four games, he’s already won £23,926—£4,425 more than Keshava Guha, the show’s first 4-time winner. However, today’s challengers Asha Chumber and Dan Adler want to stop Michael from winning money and win some themselves! Interestingly, Dan does have a known history of being a strong quizzer, so Michael might have his work cut out for him today!
This brings me to one point of clarification for our new UK viewers: the winner of each game wins their total score at the end of the game, and can return as long as they keep winning. So, regardless of what happens, Michael will win at least £23,926; that money can’t be taken from him at this point.

Jeopardy! Round #1:
(Categories: Cover Girls And Guys; On This Day; The Stadium Tour; China; Those Wives Of That King; Palindromes)
Michael got off to a strong start, but fell back to £0 after a missed True Daily Double. No matter, though, 19 correct in the round meant that Michael still had a big lead after 30 clues!

Michael 19 correct 1 incorrect
Dan 3 correct 0 incorrect
Asha 5 correct 2 incorrect
Scores after Jeopardy! Round #1:
Michael £775

(Categories: What The Dickens?; What’s In A (Brand) Name?; I’D Like To Thank The Academy…; Scales; A River Runs Through It; Before Bed)
After picking up 10 of the first 13 correct responses in this round, Michael went for the jugular and a £1,675 True Daily Double! A correct response put him over the £3,000 mark! At the end of a round that Stephen called “astonishing”, Michael had a commanding lead! This one isn’t over yet, though!

Double Jeopardy! Round:
(Categories: Football Team Suffixes; It’s Also A TV Show; Literary Shared Surnames; Heart Of The Matter; Sir Isaac Newton; Loose Change)
Dan got to the Daily Double nearly immediately, but somehow decided not to go all in. Still, an incorrect response dropped him to £375. He got some of his money back, but Michael still had a huge lead after 75 clues. In the second half of the round, Dan got the last Daily Double, and his bet sizing was enough to make sure today’s game wasn’t a runaway going into Final!
