Jeopardy! fans' wait for the highly anticipated announcement of a new host is set to be over "very soon," the show's executive producer has revealed—and it won't just be one presenter standing at the lectern. Following the November 2020 death of beloved presenter Alex Trebek, the large majority of Season 37 of the syndicated quiz show saw a revolving door of celebrity guest hosts take the helm, with a number of them hoping to land the job. In August 2021, then-executive producer Mike Richards was named as the new host of the nightly show, with Mayim Bialik being drafted in as the host of Jeopardy! specials and tournaments. However, just nine days after the announcement, Richards stepped down from his role amid backlash over offensive comments he had made several years ago on a now-defunct podcast. By the end of August, he was also out of his producer role. With Bialik now sharing Season 38 hosting duties with Jeopardy! all-time champ Ken Jennings, fans had … [Read more...] about ‘Jeopardy!’ producer reveals “multiple” hosts will be announced “very soon”

There is just over a week until the EU referendum and the Remain camp has gone full tilt - with 12 union leaders joining Labour's entire shadow cabinet. In an open letter to Mirror readers they warned workers' rights would be lost after Brexit - a move the TUC also claims would cost enough to fund the NHS for three months. Brexiters have been in a happy mood though after three polls all gave them leads of up to seven points. And so have Remainers after David Cameron won a court victory against EU chiefs in an EU court on blocking migrants' benefits. Meanwhile, Monday night's pro-Brexit poll bump sent the London stock exchange into meltdown, with £30bn wiped off the FTSE 100 index today alone. Boris Johnson was left red faced after Alex Salmond called him out for misquoting a Bank of England report...and then forced him to admit he hadn't bothered to read it. And George Osborne is set to deliver a brutal "emergency budget" of NHS cuts and tax rises if Britain votes … [Read more...] about EU referendum recap: George Osborne threatens NHS cuts and tax hikes after Brexit
