totally agree...and sports questions are usually a weak point of people who watch/play jeopardy...the fact hat 2 of the contestants got it right was a bit shocking

Never heard of David Hockney. I would've answered Buddy Ebsen (Beverly Hillbillies) :P

Tired on Monday--said India and Bangladesh (bzzt!). No recollection of having heard of Hockney. No chance of getting A Room with a View on Friday. Have not read nor seen it.
