Point to eleven the French made outcasts (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

exiles

'outcasts' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'point to eleven the french' is the wordplay.
'point' becomes 'e' (E is an example).
'to eleven' becomes 'xi' (roman numeral).
'the french' becomes 'les' (les is the in french).
'e'+'xi'+'les'='EXILES'

'made' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for exiles that I've seen before include "Outcasts" , "Expatriates" , "They go abroad, maybe to escape tax" , "They are forced to live in foreign countries" , "They live outside their home countries" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
