Jeopardy! Australia is an Australian quiz show based on Jeopardy!. The show is broadcast on the Nine Network and premiered on 20 April 2024, featuring contestants who are Australian expatriates in the United Kingdom and Europe.
Gameplay
Six categories are announced, each with a column of five trivia clues (phrased in answer form), each one incrementally valued more than the previous, ostensibly by difficulty. The subjects ranged from standard topics including history and current events, the sciences, the arts, popular culture, literature and languages, to pun-laden titles (many of which referred to the standard subjects) and wordplay categories.
The host then reads the clue, some of which are accompanied by an audio or visual clue after which any of the three contestants would ring in using a hand-held signaling device. The first contestant to ring in successfully, following the host's reading of the clue, then had to respond in the form of a question.
A correct response earned the dollar value of the clue and the opportunity to select the next clue from the board. The Double Jeopardy! round requires players to give responses in the form of a question, or it will be considered incorrect. An incorrect response or a failure to respond within the 5-second time limit deducted the dollar value of the clue from the contestant's score and gave any remaining opponent(s) the opportunity to ring in and respond. If none of the contestants could give a correct response, the host read the correct response and the last contestant to have given a correct answer chose the next clue.
