Despite making an ill-advised wager on the final clue prior to Final Jeopardy, Jenny Thorngate of Madison nailed that answer and then the final answer to win Wednesday’s episode of “Jeopardy!”
Thorngate, a chemist who works at the University of Wisconsin for the Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene, will play against two new opponents on Thursday’s episode. “Jeopardy!” airs in Madison at 4:30 p.m. weekdays on NBC15.
