Bad Show: The Quiz, The Cough, The Millionaire Major

Charles Ingram, a major in the British Army, became the third winner of the million-pound prize on ITV’s top-rated Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? 

But his victory was short-lived. 

It was alleged that a fellow contestant had helped him with the questions by coughing to indicate the correct answers. Ingram was stripped of his prize and charged with fraud offences. 

He and his wife Diana were both convicted. Ingram’s life was in ruins. 

He had to resign his army commission and lost his reputation, his home and any prospects of future employment. 

He had been a well-respected army officer, but now he was described in the British press as a man who was as publicly reviled as a mass murderer.

He has always asserted that he won the prize fairly. 

Now, for the first time, Bad Show tells the complete story and examines all the evidence in order to explain exactly what happened on that fateful night.
