About Today’s Final Jeopardy – Tuesday, 12 March 2024
“Peer Gynt,” penned by Henrik Ibsen and unveiled in 1867, unfolds over five acts written in verse, charting the epic and fantastical exploits of Peer Gynt. This protagonist finds himself on a myriad of extraordinary adventures, from hunting reindeer to encountering legendary beings amid Norway’s frosty peaks. Yet, Peer’s quest also whisks him away to far-off lands, including the vibrant scenes of Morocco and Egypt, as he searches for purpose and self-awareness amidst a backdrop that blurs the lines between reality and fantasy. Renowned for weaving together elements of traditional Norwegian folklore with themes of existential inquiry and romantic irony, “Peer Gynt” stands as one of Ibsen’s most celebrated and timeless creations.

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.
