- Seth Wilson, an editor & adjunct professor from Oak Park, Illinois.

Jeopardy! 

THE 15th CENTURY // OF (GREEK) MYTHICAL PROPORTIONS // "X" MARKS THE BRAND // STATE THE FACTS // POP CULTURE 2000 // LOOK & SEE THE DOUBLE VOWELS

DD1 - 1,000 - THE 15th CENTURY - The structure called this, after the old city of Tokyo, was built; over centuries, it expanded greatly, then contracted (Juveria lost 1,400 on a true DD.)

Scores at first break: Seth 3,400, Jackson 2,600, Juveria 1,400.

Scores entering DJ: Seth 4,200, Jackson 5,200, Juveria 2,600.

Double Jeopardy! 

BRITISH ISLES GEOGRAPHY // TALES OF ADVENTURE // BODY HUMAN // ONE-WORD ANAGRAMS // SONGS ABOUT BUILDINGS & FOOD // WHAT'S THE USE?

DD2 - 1,200 - TALES OF ADVENTURE - Though a cowardly lech, in India the hero of "Flashman in the Great Game" earns this then-highest British award for gallantry (On the second clue of the round, Seth had a small lead and lost 5,800 on a true DD.)

DD3 - 2,000 - BODY HUMAN - Head to the end of the alphabet for this bone that forms an outer wall of the eye socket (Juveria took first place by doubling to 13,200 vs. 8,000 for Jackson.)

Seth dropped to 0 on DD2 while Juveria doubled-up on DD3 and led into FJ at 16,000 vs. 10,800 for Jackson and 6,400 for Seth.

Final Jeopardy!

ART & ARTISTS - Born in Amersfoort in 1872, he helped found an art movement noted for the use of straight lines and primary colors

Everyone was correct on FJ. Juveria added 5,601 to advance with 21,601.

Final scores: Seth 12,799, Jackson 16,001, Juveria 21,601.

Tough category of the day: The players missed three in the ONE-WORD ANAGRAMS category, so they probably won't be applying to appear on Countdown anytime soon.

Unsolicited advice dept.: After a FJ clue such as this, perhaps the show would consider briefly showing an example of the artist's work, so all the viewers can understand what the clue was about and maybe even learn something.

Correct Qs: DD1 - What is Edo Castle? DD2 - What is Victoria Cross? DD3 - What is zygomatic bone? FJ - Who was Mondrian?
