• Adrian Borland – vocals, guitar, production
• Michael Dudley – drums, production
• Green (Graham Bailey) – bass guitar, production
• Belinda "Bi" Marshall – keyboard, production
• CD:"JEOPARDY" LP (1980)
• Jeopardy received full five-star reviews from three major music publications: NME, Sounds and Melody Maker. Steve Sutherland of Melody Maker wrote: "Jeopardy is one of those records that makes me want to throw all the windows open, crank it up to full volume and blast it out to the world. It clears my head of boredom, strips away the gloom and single-handedly restores my belief in the power of pop to make people stop, think and question. [...] Jeopardy has got more spirit, more soul and more downright honesty about it than any other record I've heard this year."
  In its retrospective review, AllMusic called it "a caustic jolt of a debut that startles and fascinates".

 So many feelings
end up in here
left so alone I'm with
oh, an atmoshere
I'm sick and I'm tired
of reasoning
just want to break out
shake off this skin

I can't escape myself

All my problems
lume larger than life
I can swallow another slice
Seems like my shadow
marks every strike
can't learn to live with
what's trapped inside

I can't escape myself

So many feelings
end up in here
left so alone I'm with
oh, an atmoshere
I'm sick and I'm tired
of reasoning
just want to break out
shake off this skin

I can't escape myslef
