      On a scale of 1 to 10 on the difficulty scale, that clue was way off the scale hard. A rating of 1 would be super easy. A rating of 10 would be super hard. The clue tonight, maybe 1,000 on that scale.

      @@hsupower the question was basically "name a woman who married a French guy and who had an ew in her last name". That could be so many people. Also, a lot of people don't recall the Stewart surname when they think of Mary Queen of Scots. They just think of her title.

      @@mattuw82 Another approach is: What name in the English language is pronounced the same way if you replace "ew" with a "u". As for the association between the two alternative names, opera fanatics are familiar with the Donizetti opera "Maria Stuarda" ("Mary Stuart"), which deals with Mary, Queen of Scots and her conflict with her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I.

    Speaking of letters, why is W in French literally "double V"? 🤔 And why does a certain English speaking country spell Z as "zee". My wife grew up in upstate NY next to the Canadian border and watched Canadian educational TV. She had to learn to pronounce differently once she went to preschool.

    I honestly would have written down “Stuart” not because I knew the answer or have any clue who Mary Queen of Scots is, but because it’s the most obvious answer to me of a name that can be spelled both with an Ew and a U. I wonder if they would’ve counted that
