About Today’s Final Jeopardy – Thursday, 7 March 2024
“The Persians,” penned by Aeschylus in the 470s B.C., stands as his oldest work that has survived to the present day. Drawing directly from his personal involvement in military conflicts, Aeschylus crafted this play after participating in battles against the Persian forces in the years prior. Notably, “The Persians” diverges from the mythologically themed narratives typical of Greek tragedy, instead providing a historical account of the Greco-Persian Wars from the viewpoint of the defeated Persian side.

Final Jeopardy Video – Thursday, 7 March 2024
Watch all the videos from today’s Jeopardy episode below, including highlights, behind the scenes outtakes and full episodes.
Final Jeopardy is the final round of the popular American television game show Jeopardy!, in which participants test their knowledge in numerous areas by answering questions. In Final Jeopardy, participants are given a single clue and must wager a percentage of their existing earnings based on their confidence in their ability to successfully respond.
Each contestant surreptitiously writes down their wager during the commercial break. The Final Jeopardy clue is presented when the programme resumes, and participants have 30 seconds to write down their solution in the form of a question (e.g., “What is…?”). When the timer runs out, the host, reveals each contestant’s response and wager in ascending order of their pre-Final Jeopardy scores. The scores of contestants are adjusted based on whether their response is correct or incorrect, as well as the amount wagered. At the end of the round, the contestant with the highest score is proclaimed the winner.
