To be honest, it's the faster pace that I'm wondering about. Fry's tone is
generally quite slow, and not rapid-fire questions and answers. But a
multitude of sins can be covered up in the edit...

"Jeopardy!" is just a faster-paced version of "QI" without the joke answers.

[TV orNotTV] Stephen Fry to present UK version of Jeopardy

2023-02-27 Thread Adam Bowie 
There have been a couple of attempts in the past to bring Jeopardy to UK
audiences, although I confess that they have all completely passed me by.

This feels like a significantly bigger play with Fry taking on hosting
duties. Beyond the odd presenting stint on Have I Got News For You, I can't
recall him doing something like this before, and I'm not 100% sure that
it's his wheelhouse to be honest. But the proof will be in the pudding.

It's only 20 episodes in the first instance (a tiny order for a daytime
quiz show), so I guess either Fry's work commitments limit things, or ITV
isn't 100% sure yet.
