Every contestant is wary with the million dollar question, some seem defeated. The Cheater however takes his time, cracks jokes, repeats how he has no clue but chooses the option that he has never heard of - meanwhile someone won’t stop coughing when he glossses over the right answer. This was a great strategy!

Its a true saying, they're only easy if you know the answer. Of all these million pound answers I actually knew three of them, yet watching the show when it used to be aired, there were times I would probably have to use a lifeline just to get up to a thousand ! What is simple for some can be difficult for others irrespective of how much money is involved.

So true! The hard part is answering 15 *consecutive* questions correctly. You may know the million pound answer, but it's no use if you don't know some of the 14 other answers along the way. That's what people forget. You may get lucky with your lifelines, and you might not. That's not taking into account monetary pressures and the pressure of being in a studio too, which can sway you as well. It's real money and real life.

Not sure why the quality was so bad in the clip that was included here. And they weren't suspicious of the coughing before 32,000 because there wasn't any. Originally he had four devices strapped to him - one on each arm and one on each leg, and someone would press a button to make the correct one vibrate. The coughing, and the way he kept repeating back all the options to prompt it, was a hastily devised plan B because they were worried he'd get caught with the devices on him. They switched strategies between the two episodes.

@@Jivvi I completely forgot about their initial scheme. I went back and watched some. So, it turns out that some of the crew saw him using his phone outside the studio shortly after recording and they're not allowed to bring phones so that plan fell apart after just the first 3 questions (I guess it was a commercial break? Not terribly clear when he'd have a chance to step out) I also forgot that he legitimately played 500£-4000£. And the new episode and the coughing was all the way back at 8000£. I did successfully remember 32k. Whittock didn't know the 32k answer and his wife decided to cough, but since she's always being recorded, that's when the crew started figuring it out. They didn't know about Whittock helping until after the 32k question. After they caught on to Whittock, they went back and found the 8k and 16k coughs. Last random thing. I did not know the "coughing episode" was 9/10/2001. Not sure why so much time had passed before he got to trial.

As in, if a contestant reached the final questions having aced history and pop culture, the final question would be about something else like sports. This way, it was tailored so as to be harder to any particular contestant to win.

I usually know none of the answers, ironically the cheater's million pound one I knew. I better, since I teach math. It's weird watching it now after seeing a documentary done on exposing him, because it's now so obvious he cheated. But that's due to just knowing what he did after the fact. I can see why they got suspicious of him the way he'd say, I think it's this, then all of the sudden switch to a different answer. On a different note, I loved it when Judith won, just the way it went. And I honestly have all the respect in the world for people that weren't sure and walked away at the 500,000. To me, that is so much money, how can you risk it on something you're not sure about.

Hi . I totally agree with you . For that amount of money I have always thought the question should have been harder . Even if someone does not follow cricket , all they need to know is Chester le Street is in Co. Durham and they win a million pounds . As I've mentioned earlier my Dad was only one step away from being on the show and knew every answer . When it came to the Chester le Street question he nearly put his foot through the TV !

The thing that stands out the most is how supportive a host Chris Tarrant is, and how thoroughly proud he is if the contestants who reach this stage - no matter the end result. There are some gameshow hosts who are clearly acting - it's their job to help make the show feel more exciting. Not Chris though, it's obviously a natural passion for his job and the change it brings to the lives of some contestants.

I used to love watching the American show at the height of its popularity. I had to watch that one considering Canada never really had its own version, save for two episodes that were actually produced on the US set in New York. I think it was on that version that someone won the top prize before any other version in the world did. Chris later showed the winning clip from that episode in a special retrospective show.
I knew the Bull Moose question because I had read about Roosevelt, the Volt because it's a bit of a giveaway, and I know the Henry II question because of Civilisation! 😂 The rest of them, though, no idea. And you can know them and still get doubts because the stakes are as high as they get.
As he called the cheater's wife down I was picturing the host saying, We've got two pair of handcuffs for the both of you. I've never appreciated cheaters; I'm glad they were caught. Almost poetic justice that they thought they got away with it only to have to give it back. Do game show cheaters ever have to do jail time?

No, and that's why it was ridiculous. Put simply, if you did High-School Chemistry & Physics you would know it was none of the other three. Furthermore, the question is structurally flawed. It is analogous to asking "Which of these is a number? Thousand, Big, Kilobyte, milligram. The problem is not that the correct answer is easy. Very few people would know what a Googol was, even after hearing off google. The issue is that the other three options are so obviously wrong.

In fact the first question was not a trick question it was in fact un-answerable as the question itself made an incorrect assumption. The question was...... "Translated from the Latin, what is the motto of the United States? - The official motto of the United States is "In God we Trust" which is what Laurence answered - it is and remains the ONLY official motto ever recognized by an Act of Congress (in 1956) - it never had a Latin equivalent and therefore was never translated to or from Latin. The Answer provided by the show was "one out of many" a rough translation of E Pluribus Unum (literally.....from many, one). Whilst this is the motto on the Seal of the United States and on coin currency it was never an official "motto of the USA" although for want of any official alternative may have served as a de-facto motto until 1956. If he forced the issue in court her would certainly have succeeded. They gave the most correct answer possible given the error in the question.

They would have not been able to prove the coughing was helping charles if it happened on just one or two questions. The fact that it happened on multiple questions was what gave it away. And the more questions Charles went for, the more evidence authorities/investigators had to work with. The documentary mentioned that if Charles had walked away at 125K he might have actually gotten away with it as investigators might have had insufficient evidence to work with. There was no coughing on the 16K question, and it was Diana, not Techwinn who coughed on the 32K question. The biggest red flag occurred on the 500K question...the "cough NO" thing. That being said I do not support cheating, and Charles was 100% cheating and Im glad he was caught. Based on how Diana reacted to losing on the 64K question you can tell that family really really wanted the big million and they were really determined. The phrase "Never give up" is a darn good phrase to live by but there is the odd scenario here and there where that is actually a bad thing, and Ingrams millionaire episode is one of them. Its important to know where to draw the line on the phrase "Never give up". That being said....he should not have attempted to cheat in the first place, end of story.
I remember the broadcasting of the Charles Ingram episode. I was 11 at the time and the previous school year I'd been very inquisitive especially with maths and my maths teacher would talk with me through more advanced maths than my curriculum offered. Which included the concepts of the googol and the googolplex. So when this question came up as the million pound question I was ecstatic that I knew it. Such a shame the cheat tarnished it.
