E6. If you take the name of this holy sea (no, no, not Holy See!) and change the last letter to another vowel, you get the first name of a famous heretic. Change it to another vowel, and you get his last name. What is the name of this place?

A. Galilee. The famous (recanted) heretic is, of course, Galileo Galilei.

  1. The name of this place: Sea of Galilee.

    Am going for the Master Answer too: these are all operas, or plays or something, by Andrew Llyod Webber?

  4. Okay, theme A is Phantom. But I still can't get B, despite all clues being in. But then I'm not a modern musicals addict...

    Shit, end of a great series? When's the next? And remember my suggestion to do this with Indian themes next time...

    Thanks for the efforts taken to provide us all with some great entertainment.
