HS:

Claudia: $400/Vivek: $5K/Sarah: $2,800

An $800 clue’s lucky again for a DD, this time in The First Millennium for Sarah, who has $3800 & $1400 behind the leading Vivek. The female challenger that is Sarah risks a g-bar.

In one of their first known attacks, in 793 these raiders looted & burned a monastery in Northern Britain.

“Who are the Vikings?”…also Minnesota’s NFL team, good for her.

LT: $1400

The $1600 National Anthem is a DD opportunity for the man in the middle, who’s leading at $12,600, followed by Sarah ($9800) & Claudia ($3K). $2K is Vivek’s wager.

First performed in 1745, it has been quoted & arranged by composers including Haydn & Britten.

“What is ‘God Save the Queen’?”…yeah. He’s also the finder of the one in the $1200 clue of They Directed Themselves & holds a $7K lead over Sarah, $18K-$11K; Claudia’s also getting back in it w/ $7800. $4K at risk this time for Vivek.

“By the Sea (she directed her husband, too)”

“Who is Barbra Streisand?”…sorry, no.
