All of the categories in the July 19, 2016 episode were based around books of the Bible.

June 12, 1998: All but one category ended with -ATIONS (the lone exception was CRUSTACEANS).

Also the third regular season game with no winner (one player finished Double Jeopardy! with a negative score).

This one has synonyms for little in the Jeopardy! Round and synonyms for big in the Double Jeopardy! round.
I had a dream that I was asleep and then I woke up and Jeopardy! was on.

And the FJ was about mediums.
Not many people can say they've lost four times on Jeopardy!.

What a brutal FJ! I got it right away (unlike the loser nobodies in that game) because I've done a fair amount of reading about/of those two. But the fact hardly seems in the realm of common trivia knowledge and the clue doesn't have a lot of TOM to it.

I know that Doyle appeared in an episode of Mr Selfridge and I'm pretty sure they made mention of that feud.
