Rogue hint

Question

In the last answer there seems to be a partly misplaced hint. The sentence is "ont eu l'opportunité de regarder la télé en couleur pour la première fois" as a translation for "were able to watch in colour for the first time" but the hint is as follows: 
 
- "got"  = environ 1 500 foyers / - Spell out the number  
 
 I’m wondering if at one time the English sentence was "got the opportunity to watch" etc?      
 
 
Also is it normal that a question about a writing exercise appears in "Q and A Forum" and not the thread itself?

Accepted Answer

Bonjour Anne,
Thank you for pointing this out! You are right: the hint was not exactly what it should have been. Thanks to you, it has now been changed accordingly. 
Also, every question should in theory be displayed in the Q&A forum and the exercise thread. I am not sure which question you are referring to. If you could raise a query via our Helpdesk: (with the Q&A link / exercise link and screenshots), it would be very helpful.
I hope this is helpful.
Bonne journée !
