Today’s contestants:

Emma Laslett, a disability benefits officer from Milton Keynes (2-day total: £9,024)

Emma Laslett on Jeopardy! UK

Andy’s Pre-Game Thoughts:

We’re now onto Day 3 of Twitter in the United Kingdom generally showing how collectively terrible they are, as 2-day champion Emma Laslett returns, having won £9,024 up to this point. Remember, when a player loses on Jeopardy!, they take home their winnings from all of their previous wins.

Emma said on Twitter that her opponents today are “big guns”—Sarah won the 2022 Brain of Britain competition on the BBC, while Anthony and Sarah have actually competed against each other before—they were both Grand Finalists in the 2021-22 season of Mastermind; Anthony finished fourth in that final and Sarah second.

Another reminder that I have started a Sunday mailbag column where I answer fan & viewer questions regarding the show. If you have a question, feel free to send it to mailbag@thejeopardyfan.com!
