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?"

Watch 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', according to certain sources.

"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."

Incase you were wondering, the correct answer to the contestant's 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.

Over the years, people have used the following rhyme to remember the fate of each of Henry’s wives, as he desired a male successor: "King Henry VIII / To six wives was wedded / One died, one survived / Two divorced and two beheaded."

Another popular one is: "Divorced, beheaded, died / Divorced, beheaded, survived."

And the order of his wives go: "Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Catherine Howard, and Catherine Parr."

Henry VIII eventually had a son, Edward VI, born in 1537 to his third wife, Seymour.

Edward became king at the age of nine after Henry's death in 1547. But he ruled for only six years before dying in 1553 at the age of 15.

Now back to show, 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.
