I know you want to be all smug here, but Chris Tarrant had the same timers on WWTBAM UK when this aired, and with him, failing to answer in time was a drop-down failed answer, not a walkaway so you lost money. This was long before the Jeremy Clarkson revival, when Tarrant was still on. Jimmy Kimmel revived the US show with no timers like Jeremy Clarkson revived the UK original.

True. The Portuguese did not give their ships English names, and Drake was a pirate. That leaves us with Cook by elimination.
@seikibrian86413 жыл бұрын
@@friedrichvolkmann "...Drake was a pirate..." *Sir* Francis Drake was an English explorer, sea captain, naval officer, and politician. Queen Elizabeth I awarded Drake a knighthood in 1581. In the same year, he was appointed mayor of Plymouth. He is perhaps best known for his circumnavigation of the globe from 1577 to 1580. Then, as a vice admiral, he was second-in-command of the English fleet in the victorious battle against the Spanish Armada in 1588. His exploits made him a hero to the English, but his privateering led the Spanish to brand him a pirate. So no, James Cook was not the only possible answer by elimination; one would need to know that Endeavor was Cook's ship.

He/She must continue to say "Final Answer" immediately following the answer choice. If the Contestant starts his/her answer at the same moment as the time expires and the Buzzer sounds the Contestant may finish his/her answer including continuing to immediately say "Final Answer."
