Who Wants To Be a Millionaire viewers spot ‘huge error’ to three answers on the same question

Many Who Wants To Be a Millionaire viewers noticed the error immediately

History fans turning in to Who Wants To Be a Millionaire? over the weekend spotted a huge error to three answers on the same question.

Host of the ITV show Jeremy Clarkson was in his usual spot, welcoming contestant Neel Clements on Sunday night (9 March).

For one of the questions, the GP was asked: “Which of King Henry VIII’s wives did he marry last, making her the one who ‘survived,’ according to the well-known rhyme?”

See if you can spot the error below:

So, the four options were:

• Katherine Parr

• Anne of Cleves

• Katherine Howard

• Katherine of Aragon

Over on X, however, viewers noticed that ‘Katherine’ was wrongly spelt with a ‘K’, instead of a ‘C’.

“I thought it was Catherine with a C not a K for Aragon (the first wife) #whowantstobeamillionaire,” one person tweeted.

As another penned: “Since when was Catherine of Aragon, Catherine Howard and Catherine Parr spelt with a ‘K’ as Katherine? #WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire.”

“Why have they spelt Catherine wrong? #millionaire #wwtbam,” asked a third, while a fourth added: “Katherine with a K? #whowantstobeamillionaire.”

“I always thought they were Catherine’s rather than Katherine #whowantstobeamillionaire,” someone else said.

Well, incase you were wondering, the correct answer to the seventh question was ‘Katherine Parr’, or rather ‘Catherine Parr’.

The doctor used his ‘Ask the Audience’ lifeline, which helped him land on the right option.

Then on the ninth question, Clements struggled, using both the ’50:50′ and ‘Phone-a-Friend’ lifelines.

“The young of which of these animals is not called a calf,” the question read.

And the options were:

• Moose

• Hippopotamus

• Camel

• Zebra

In the end, Clements picked ‘Moose,’ which was the wrong answer.

‘Zebra’ would have been the correct option, and the contestant walked away with £1,000 worth of prize money.

Now, remember the good ol’ days when you’d stay up to watch the original version of Who Wants To Be a Millionaire? with the parents?

The original series started way back in 1998, and was hosted by Chris Tarrant up until 2014.

Then in 2018, the gameshow was brought back to life, featuring the Clarkson’s Farm star as the host.

Clarkson’s future on the show was uncertain at one point as he was heavily criticised for his Meghan Markle column in 2023.

But ITV since clarified in a statement that they ‘make commissioning decisions on a series-by-series basis and as such we are yet to confirm further commissioning commitments beyond that’.
