In hindsight, his failure to capture the gravity of the moment during the 1M question was the final straw. The host was even trying to help him appreciate the moment, and he had this "yeah well you know" attitude about it 😆
Even his wife knew he was caught when she came down and the man kept on saying I don’t know what your strategy and sub strategy was , but the man couldn’t tell he was just to happy to win , women are naturally smarter than guys when it comes to this things
He definitely made himself look suspicious as, no denying. I think they would have been caught anyway though. The coughing after every correct answer is pretty clear.
there was an organisation which i cant remember the name of which specialised on getting people on the show through many loopholes (for reference all of this was completely legal, the the producers of the show also knew this existed but couldnt do anything about it), ingram and his family were frequent customers of them.

I think the guy is not guilty at all. If you are at a contest and someone say or cough the answer and you answer where is your fault here? Lets see: What's the capital of England ? (you have to answer and someone in the audience says before you (loud or not) LONDON... What you going to do? Don't answer?) Its the same with the coughing... You reed one by one slowly and notice that someone coughs when you say one of the answers possible, if you dont know the answer and repeat the answer and the person coughs again you will try and answer that... after the first one you will allways do that don't you??? Why couldn't he just say: "Whats the problem if someone cough the answer? I'm not cheating. I heard someone coughing and I just thought that's someone helping because knew the answer." or "Why I have to lose because someone knews the answers? I'm not doing anything wrong... maybe the person is doing wrong... or not... but not me." Just because someone cough the answer I lose? Isn't fair." Oh but the one coughing it's your brother in law... Ok, and there are dozens of persons in the audience all in my back, how can I know that guy is my brother in law? And even if I know its him what I'm doing wrong if he knows the answers and say it? Maybe you should spoke to him to get out or be quiet or something. But he's your brother in law!!! Ok that but whats MY fault here??? I'm guilty of answer everything correctly just because someone cough the answers??? And if it wasn't my brother in law, or no one of my family it was ok??? If yes/no Why??? I don't know the rules, dont know the show, dont watch TV, but he says few times that he doesn't know the answer and the show doesn't stops there just stops when he answers wrong. Thats my understeanding.

@@GustavoTeixeira-hu1ck First off, it's his family members doing that. He just goes through all answers and when he hears a cough it's that one. Also as far as I know if someone tells the answer they switch to a different one. And at the end his wife covers her face and is not happy, clearly because he acted bad and they will be found out. Which is proof he told them that. Like use common sense, why would they give 1 million to somebody who knew nothing. It defeats the purpose of the show to use other people. And also experts already worked on the topic. There probably is a lot more proof.

@@GustavoTeixeira-hu1ck What is he doing wrong? let's see his friend and wife cough to indicate the right anwsers, that's litteral Cheating. If it was a random guy fine, if it was on 1 or 2 questions, fine that happen, but someone (in this case, his wife and his best mate, suspicious, isnt it...) cough at EVERY SINGLE QUESTION, specifically after the contestant read the anwsers? Look at the last question, he doesnt know what's a Googol, his friend cough and suddently, it's gotta be the right anwser (even the presenter knew something was wrong) and it's the same pattern with every single question, and you still cant see what's wrong with it? There is a reason why all 3 were found guilty for fraud.
@@F14D5KL Well... I don't know, are you? Think a little bit before you answer, please! The problem with you is "he is cheating", so ok lets debunk the game. I said I don't know the rules of the show and he said lots of times that he didn't know the answer and the show continued so I guess the show only ends when he answers wrong. If someone tells him the answer what is he doing wrong answering? Hein? IF SOMEONE TELLS HIM THE ANSWER WHAT IS HE DOING WRONG ANSWERING??? HE SHOULD STOP AND SAID EXCUSE ME BUT SOMEONE COUGHING THE ANSWER??? maybe but... I dont know. I wouldn't. HE SAID LOTS OF TIMES THAT HE DIDNT KNOW THE ANSWER !!! The show only stops if he answers wrong (or no? I dont know the show or the rules). If it was you there and I was coughing the answer for you what do you do? Nothing? Answer? Even if we are toghether in the show what are you doing wrong answering? You would stop and said "someone over there give me the answer coughing"? The show should stop and the guy in the audience should put away or the presenter should stop the show and said the answer was not valid or something but no, they didnt do nothing and when they found out that they have to pay a million pounds... upss wait lets see what we could do not to pay. Lets see the show... ok someone coughing the answers and the guy answer its not valid. The problem is the "cheating" they are saying... Why cheating? If it was not valid I agreed. Someone answer before you and its not valid. No prize. Goodbye.
That’s what did him in, especially the U-turns at the end without any reason. His wife’s reaction at the end is also off putting.

@@GustavoTeixeira-hu1ck of course he and his accomplices are guilty. It is obvious he did not know the answers. He just mumbled his way through it waiting for help. So many members of the same family shouldn’t be allowed to enter.
Gustavo Teixeira. So you’re just sitting there answering questions, notice someone’s coughing at certain answers and start going with the answers coughed at and you wind up winning the million dollars? That’s pretty convoluted. And it would still be cheating because you’re still getting help from an audience member - whether or not there was a prior conspiracy to cheat or not.
44:16 In the end the wife first was smiling and all happy thinking probably “we get away with it” but when she heard “if looks could have killed” she turned all serious and looked scared because she realized that he was paying attention to her, she knew she would be filmed but another is that someone is actually paying you attention when you are cheating. That’s the moment she starts doubting they will get away with it.
If you've been watching this show closely for a long time, you'd notice that Ingram's behaviour is so much different than your regular contestant. A non-cheating contestant would never risk his/her money if they have absolutely no clue what the answer is. The norm is to take the money and not risk it especially if the money won is a huge amount already. Ingram has never heard of 'googol' and yet he was willing to risk £480K on it. It doesn't make any sense. And you can tell that he was drawing blanks on most of those questions too. Now, compare him to John Carpenter who won $1M in the US version and you'll see how different their approaches were. John's way is how an intelligent player plays.
Yeah especially someone that's not wealthy going into it. Like 500,000 is going to change your life in a major way and you don't just flippantly risk it on a guess.
@@Ssm19494 yeah I was surprised that that was the question cuz I always figured it would be a much more obscure one than that. I definitely learned that in like a middle school textbook I think and it gets a reference every now and then in popular culture.
People wouldn't have noticed if he hadn't stupidly DOUBLE CHECKED every time, causing twice the number of coughs, which people then noticed. He also mentions ALL four options, every question, which is just too odd.
Exactly he kept going around to double check for the coughs. Also he didn't know the answers himself. Which didn't help. Only one coughs would do. Even If he double around to check..but tbh coughing is too obvious to cheat. I use to watch it and think if I keep hearing a cough. I know it's a cheat. Because it's the only way you can cheat.
@@DrElaf1988Usually game shows delay prizes by a week to make sure that everything is okay before allowing the transfer to take place (taxes, paperwork discrepancies, transferral processing) I don’t think that the producers expected this to happen, however the delay being commonplace in game shows allowed for an opportunity to follow up on their suspicions
The biggest give away is that he applied no critical thinking to his answers and displayed no knowledge unlike Judith Keppel who was clearly a very knowledgeable lady.
Skip to the end of the video, watch the last 10-15 seconds, then when the video ends press the replay button - it will start from the beginning with no midroll ads :)
Agreed. he is really bad actor XD FYI, In czech TV competition Riskuj!, there was one guy, that could read from the moderators screen. If the answer was in foreign language, he read it like it was written. I wonder why these people cant stop at certain point. If he won 250 000, probably noone would care and he could take some money at least.
@I'm gay so yep, good thinking to get caught cheating on a national game-show & be disgraced in public forever & have your kids exposed to ridicule their whole lives & lose your jobs, be convicted in cour & to actually lose money .. good plan, Batman ... eh, good whirl, Batgirl ;0)
HST I think he only won £1,000 is that right? Whether or not he got to keep it because of his involvement in Charles and Diana’s scam is another thing entirely
Rus Roydon why’s he a disgrace. Seen a big opportunity if he done it abit smarter would be a millionaire . Gotta love the cheek and balls of him to try it. It’s a victimless ‘crime’ . You’re Talking like he’s done something scummy 😂
Unfortunately it is not a reflection of reality at all, even according to Chris Tarrant himself (Good Morning Britain); Tarrant says it is obvious they cheated, and he's spent hours with the fraud squad
I’m surprised it took the coughing to make people suspicious......surely the sheer fact a player was storming towards the prize completely “clueless” should’ve rang alarm bells
@@srwilson3s2k14 Very correct. Someone who appears that stupid somehow "guessing" right every time is definitely going to arouse suspicion. You could tell he didn't know the answers 90% of the time.
At least the “cougher” sounded pretty legit. When the wife coughed it was so fake! She even put her hand on her chest. Could she make it any more obvious?
The people behind sussed it out soon after. I did work with a guy who was in the audience he told me the camera is on the family member at all times, this was before the scandal.
No she actually wanted him to quit at £125,000 Since that completely takes away all suspicions of cheating. Three or Four questions with a cough is easy to get off scot free. But all the way to the end is what destroyed them.
Charle : « Yeah, I think it has to be » ... « No, maybe it’s the other one » Koff « I’m going to say no, I’m sure, because why not, I never even thought about this »
Even without the coughing - the way he reaches the answers & was behaving was highly suspicious. You can tell that Chris Tarrant was thinking it's wierd.
@@user-uq1fq6gs3i I said that Chris was thinking it was 'weird' - not that he suspected it. I think we can all agree that it's unusual for someone to guess that many answers in a row & risk that amount of money.
Have you ever seen this show? People taking their time is the point of it and the rest is editing magic. Anything can sound as loud or silent as the producers want it to.
You can’t hear consistent coughing on correct answer. You can’t hear any at all between questions 10 and 14. Tecwen has never won anything significant in any quiz and makes an completely unrealistic accomplice. Tarrant also heard nothing suspicious on the night. Ingram is clearly running through the answers to pick up any audience clues in their reaction.
TheBrabon1 this isn’t even an argument theirs to many moments to point out how obvious it was i mean anyone who says anything remotely different has some serious issues. But good plan tho lol
I also cannot believe the Host was oblivious to the coughing that he didn't stop the show and question the woman in the audience doing it and told the man he is cheating.
Vayank123 the host has come out and said many times all the clips we see our with enhanced sound on the coughing and with the clapping and music quieter when he was in their i can imagine its quite hard to concentrate on just the coughing as he is concentrating on the contestant answering the question then all the clapping would just drown out the coughing obviously its easy for us to say why didnt he hear it as we are looking and listening for it.
His wife is even annoyed by his obvious cluelessness. Him saying things like “i don’t even know what a Googol is” but he’s guessing it. And he can’t explain what any of the other answers are. If he at least acted like he knew what the other answers were, as if he could eliminate those, it would’ve been more believable.
And on the final few questions, she looks a lot more concerned and afraid. Likely because she knew he was going further than what they planned and was acting way too suspicious
Yes if he'd been a better actor and not so mouthy he might have gotten away with it. And the continuous checking each answer. Like the "Gentlemen vs Players" one, he knew. No need for the coughs there. He should have had his own way of signalling back to the coughing guy - or even a series of signals. They could have gotten away with this. If they'd been a little more thoughtful about it.
The plan was actually a great idea but it was executed so poorly and obvious. Here’s what they should’ve done: 1. The major should’ve read out the answers instead of saying “I don’t think it’s A” 2. They should’ve had 1 cough per question 3. The major should’ve given a code if he knew the answer so they didn’t have to cough, such as saying “right ok” at the start of the question so no coughing would be required 4. The major should’ve walked away at £250,000 in order to not cause too much suspicion
It eould have been more sus if there was 1 cough per wuestion. They should have coughed the entire time and cough at the correct amswer before coughing again, to make it seem less obvious.
The coughs need be special like once or twice or sth at correct ans and regular on unrelated occasion so as to make it natural and random.. Besides he was very wrong to make his intentions clear right away.. He couldve just repeated all options again and again waiting for his friend to answer some time obviously not rightaway on the very first repeat.. But yea all this for not too much of a head.. It only reduces the probability of getting caught
The expression of his wife tells everything: she's pissed at him about how badly he executed their plan. "I've never heard of X" is the worst possible way of testing the options :-DD
@@surefmeurope5766 I mean to remember that some of the producers picked up on it pretty early on but was told pretend that everything was normal during the show and just deal with it afterwards.
He wasn't that good. Most people could pass off a weak impression of Tarrant and others would know who they were doing. Sheen is an actor so was bound to be able to pass off a reasonable impression of him.
@MrPolicekarim Who was “coughing accomplice”? If you're reveling in slandering that Welshman.. ...Then do know that his fictionalized-persona was never shown coughing to a particular option.
39:44 I love how the announcer just outted their entire production. "You've been lucky for the past hour... Um, PAST 2 DAYS!" pretending that they actually were there for 2 days. Multiple episodes are recorded in a single day.
this might have worked if he didn’t make it so obvious, the half million he went from berlin to paris for no reason , then the million he goes for the one he never heard of. nobody would risk 468,000 to go for an answer they haven’t heard of
He never gave a reason when he selected an answer. 'I think it's Paris because when I was in France I saw a...' or 'I'm going for Craig David because I think my daughter has his album...' etc
His wife is actually the brains lol too bad they didn’t think of getting another player to help them when she was on, her brother was obsessed with the show
Theres no doubt he cheated. but it is odd that were watching this edited footage. I think the footage is spot on. but its very easy to argue that in real time the coughs didnt sync up with the video. Because ITV/celador edited what were watching. It wasnt edited by someone independent or the police.
@@wc389 Do you mean, in your opinion they cheated? They should have dismissed the case as ITV tampered with the 'evidence' before presenting it to the Police!
"I'm sure it's a nanomole, I don't think it's a googol" Cough cough "I think it could be googol actually, I don't think it's nanomole. Yes it's googol"
Clearly cheating. Whether the coughing was enhanced or not, he was dead set on at least a couple of big money answer, heard the cough and change his mind immediately. With no logic. Looked unsure each time
I’ve said this before and I’ll forever stand by this view: what exposed this scheme the most was how Charles’ wife wasn’t even happy that Charles “won” that million. Her face was filled with fear at the end, which would immediately raise suspicion, because everyone else would be cheering them on and going down and hugging them after they won the million, being so happy for them. Aside from the obvious coughing and Charles’ lack of knowledge from the gecko, his wife’s reaction when he “won” gave it away big time.
Or maybe not. Tarrant has said in interviews the chaps in the monitoring room grew suspicious early on, and the Craig David moment raised suspicions even further so they immediately began reviewing the tapes once filming stopped. They found the evidence at the second viewing of the raw footage.
Jaco Wium yeah they deffo knew earlier on, but it would’ve been a lot harder to prove in court. The fact that he played the last two questions in the manner he did made it 10x more obvious he was cheating, thus having a stronger case against him
when they won the million the wife looked so guilty and on edge, like she was thinking about something, probably thinking wether they were going to get out of the studio with no questions asked. normally when your partner wins one million you would be so care free and happy.
How would you know has your partner won a million quid? In all seriousness I think they're guilty too but if I say won the lottery I would still be sheepish and on edge until the cheque was cleared or the money showing up as available balance in my account
By looking at all other contestants who won maybe? She had a nervous and guilty reaction even before he won compared to all other previous contestants.
Have to admit I was sure he was guilty as sin... going through this I got more doubtful... then I got to the berlin/Paris question and it becomes so obvious. He decides to go for Paris out of absolutely nowhere when he was so sure it was Berlin. Cheat
It's the other way around Matty. But yeh I think he was seconds away from playing Berlin but the coughing made him change his mind to Paris. It's a German name tbf and I would have walked into that trap as well.
If he didn’t take so much time with the questions, he wouldn’t have gotten caught. a lot of them he guessed the right answer first, but then took more time just to make sure. The last two questions were painfully obvious he didn’t actually know em.
Besides the coughs.. his way to think, his culture, his speed in Switching answers Without hesitating considering the ipothetical money loss without knowing anything about the subject... Everything is just unreal
And his wife's tearless, expression-less, scared face after he won. They were so certain that they would go through this unnoticed, that they didn't act well.
@@julius7506 I think even before that point, she already thought that they could get caught, because Charles made them repeat the cough so many times and never managed to get a correct answer by himself, so the cheat became more and more obvious. That's why she's furious even after winning. She was like "They're probably going to catch us but let's act happy still, just in case they don't."
You would have to first realise that they're doing it in the first place. Trust me most people are so oblivious to many things in their daily life not even noticing it and you wouldnt notice it too.
Her face when he said never heard of Craig David kept saying A1 yet suddenly changed his mind to Craig David right after his wife coughing which was so embarrassing
He screwed up by mentioning what he thinks of each answer when he doesn’t even know it - ‘I don’t think it’s Paris’ *Cough* ‘Actually I think it’s Paris’ Too obvious. If he at least said ‘well, Paris... Berlin... etc.’ & then waited for coughs, he would’ve played it out much better & it would be less suspicious. Though with the crew on the guy at the finger seat from an early stage I think they would have busted him anyway.
exactly, the acting and tricks could have been wayyy better, especially in going u-turns for the Paris and googol questions... he could have just mentioned names instead of saying" it is " or " i think" and changing it later with no proper reason.
Game would be well easy to cheat if they never checked phones. They were too greedy and didnt look for a more viable way of communicating the answers. Look up, if they cough answer is either A or B. Look left, it is A look right it is B. Look down, answer is either C or D. Same as above. All they need to do is have a scratch, whistle, cough, sneeze anything to indicate. Saves looking like a twat repeating the questions. Hell, if they had time. An electric buzzer would have sorted him out big time, no noise, just a vibration in his pocket.
I wish they’d just shown the unedited version so I can come to the conclusions myself. I don’t want to be told to listen carefully I want to see if I notice things myself
The guy sitting behind Ingrams wife furing the Cra8d David question and the FFF guy who testified as a witness were sure they were chesting so Im not too worried about your opinion. So 3 relatives managed to get on the show by.... Chance?
But its quite obvious.. He is a big cheat No ones Luck And Guesses Works everytime.. He dint know any of the answers.. just travelled across each option and waited for the cough on correct one And if defend had to prove themselves right so they lied and stated rubbish ...
@@my_other_account6008 of cource.. They Cheated Whole Documentary is made now On it I don't understand how still people doubt on it 😅 If channel has to hide smthing or had edited the clip in reality then Why will the Channel itself show Defend's claims?
He executed this so badly. Not only are there a couple of u-turns. But he also repeated the answers so often that the wife had to cough at least three times at the right answer before he finally chose it. And the real question is: If the wife was able to answer all these question, why wasn't she on the chair?!
@@ItsAllLove4Real Incorrect. She did make it to the hot seat not too long before Charles did. She walked away with 32,000 pounds after getting the 64,000 answer wrong. The host Chris T. even commented on the documentary by ITV that even though she won a lot of money, she was visibly pissed off because she wanted to go higher.
I’m sure they only new the answers because the system generating the questions had been hacked and therefore they knew the questions before hand. I might be totally wrong but I know it’s something to do with the system due to the ITV drama/documentary

@@thebeasters he couldn't shut up cause he had to name them in order to heear the cough??
his downfall was that he wasn't confident enough to pretend to know the answers..he admits not knowing them and then gets them right. That's dodgy AF

He definitely made himself look suspicious as, no denying. I think they would have been caught anyway though. The coughing after every correct answer is pretty clear.
Exactly, if he played it more coldly and decisively instead of flip flopping over answers and raising suspicion he would have got away with it.

What I do not understand is why no one has questioned how the family got so many attempts at the show.
there was an organisation which i cant remember the name of which specialised on getting people on the show through many loopholes (for reference all of this was completely legal, the the producers of the show also knew this existed but couldnt do anything about it), ingram and his family were frequent customers of them.

He didn’t cheat - all the answers came from his various experiences growing up in the slums of India.
Lol that took me way too long to get.

I totally understood the joke, but uh..for those who didn't...Could you explain it?
@@vedika9466 There's a movie called slumdog millionaire in which the contestant was raised in a slum. It's all abt how the contestant answers the questions asked in Indian version of 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' show through his various experiences growing up in the slum.
Court: "Did you cheat?"
Ingram: "No."
*Cough*
Ingram: "I mean, yes."
I think the guy is not guilty at all.
If you are at a contest and someone say or cough the answer and you answer where is your fault here?
Lets see:
What's the capital of England ?
(you have to answer and someone in the audience says before you (loud or not) LONDON... What you going to do? Don't answer?)
Its the same with the coughing... You reed one by one slowly and notice that someone coughs when you say one of the answers possible, if you dont know the answer and repeat the answer and the person coughs again you will try and answer that... after the first one you will allways do that don't you???
Why couldn't he just say: "Whats the problem if someone cough the answer? I'm not cheating. I heard someone coughing and I just thought that's someone helping because knew the answer." or "Why I have to lose because someone knews the answers? I'm not doing anything wrong... maybe the person is doing wrong... or not... but not me." Just because someone cough the answer I lose? Isn't fair."
Oh but the one coughing it's your brother in law...
Ok, and there are dozens of persons in the audience all in my back, how can I know that guy is my brother in law? And even if I know its him what I'm doing wrong if he knows the answers and say it? Maybe you should spoke to him to get out or be quiet or something.
But he's your brother in law!!!
Ok that but whats MY fault here??? I'm guilty of answer everything correctly just because someone cough the answers??? And if it wasn't my brother in law, or no one of my family it was ok??? If yes/no Why???
I don't know the rules, dont know the show, dont watch TV, but he says few times that he doesn't know the answer and the show doesn't stops there just stops when he answers wrong. Thats my understeanding. He couldn't know even who was Jesus Christ or the US money currency or if its the moon or the sun in the sky, the show just stops when he gets the wrong answer so what is he doing wrong?
@@GustavoTeixeira-hu1ck First off, it's his family members doing that.
He just goes through all answers and when he hears a cough it's that one.
Also as far as I know if someone tells the answer they switch to a different one.
And at the end his wife covers her face and is not happy, clearly because he acted bad and they will be found out. Which is proof he told them that.
Like use common sense, why would they give 1 million to somebody who knew nothing. It defeats the purpose of the show to use other people.
And also experts already worked on the topic. There probably is a lot more proof.

@Gustavo Teixeira are you stupid? 🤦🏻♂️
@@GustavoTeixeira-hu1ck What is he doing wrong? let's see his friend and wife cough to indicate the right anwsers, that's litteral Cheating. If it was a random guy fine, if it was on 1 or 2 questions, fine that happen, but someone (in this case, his wife and his best mate, suspicious, isnt it...) cough at EVERY SINGLE QUESTION, specifically after the contestant read the anwsers? Look at the last question, he doesnt know what's a Googol, his friend cough and suddently, it's gotta be the right anwser (even the presenter knew something was wrong) and it's the same pattern with every single question, and you still cant see what's wrong with it? There is a reason why all 3 were found guilty for fraud.
@@F14D5KL Well... I don't know, are you?
Think a little bit before you answer, please!
The problem with you is "he is cheating", so ok lets debunk the game.
I said I don't know the rules of the show and he said lots of times that he didn't know the answer and the show continued so I guess the show only ends when he answers wrong.
If someone tells him the answer what is he doing wrong answering? Hein?
IF SOMEONE TELLS HIM THE ANSWER WHAT IS HE DOING WRONG ANSWERING??? HE SHOULD STOP AND SAID EXCUSE ME BUT SOMEONE COUGHING THE ANSWER??? maybe but... I dont know. I wouldn't.
HE SAID LOTS OF TIMES THAT HE DIDNT KNOW THE ANSWER !!! The show only stops if he answers wrong (or no? I dont know the show or the rules).
If it was you there and I was coughing the answer for you what do you do? Nothing? Answer? Even if we are toghether in the show what are you doing wrong answering? You would stop and said "someone over there give me the answer coughing"?
The show should stop and the guy in the audience should put away or the presenter should stop the show and said the answer was not valid or something but no, they didnt do nothing and when they found out that they have to pay a million pounds... upss wait lets see what we could do not to pay. Lets see the show... ok someone coughing the answers and the guy answer its not valid.
The problem is the "cheating" they are saying... Why cheating? If it was not valid I agreed. Someone answer before you and its not valid. No prize. Goodbye.
What frustrates me the most is how he basically knew nothing nor used any logical reasoning for his answers.
That’s what did him in, especially the U-turns at the end without any reason.
His wife’s reaction at the end is also off putting. Not at all how you’d expect someone react to seeing your spouse win the grand prize.
Also, they were overheard arguing in the dressing room afterwards. Not at all a reaction you’d expect
why does this frustrate you at all?
@@RYMAN1321 Mind you, it wasn't just that he kept second guessing himself, the first segment wherein he manages to get to £2,000 while using *every lifeline* completely contrasts his correct answer streak in the second part.

@@GustavoTeixeira-hu1ck of course he and his accomplices are guilty. It is obvious he did not know the answers. He just mumbled his way through it waiting for help. So many members of the same family shouldn’t be allowed to enter.
Gustavo Teixeira. So you’re just sitting there answering questions, notice someone’s coughing at certain answers and start going with the answers coughed at and you wind up winning the million dollars? That’s pretty convoluted. And it would still be cheating because you’re still getting help from an audience member - whether or not there was a prior conspiracy to cheat or not.
44:16 In the end the wife first was smiling and all happy thinking probably “we get away with it” but when she heard “if looks could have killed” she turned all serious and looked scared because she realized that he was paying attention to her, she knew she would be filmed but another is that someone is actually paying you attention when you are cheating. That’s the moment she starts doubting they will get away with it.
Well spotted.
It said earlier tho that she new she was being filmed sometimes but not everytime so I dunno bout that one but something definitely spooked her
If you've been watching this show closely for a long time, you'd notice that Ingram's behaviour is so much different than your regular contestant. A non-cheating contestant would never risk his/her money if they have absolutely no clue what the answer is. The norm is to take the money and not risk it especially if the money won is a huge amount already. Ingram has never heard of 'googol' and yet he was willing to risk £480K on it. It doesn't make any sense. And you can tell that he was drawing blanks on most of those questions too. Now, compare him to John Carpenter who won $1M in the US version and you'll see how different their approaches were. John's way is how an intelligent player plays.
To be fair the googol question is easy
@@Ssm19494 what do you mean to be fair, he didn’t know lol. That’s the point, he was willing to lose betting on something he’s never heard of.
Yeah especially someone that's not wealthy going into it. Like 500,000 is going to change your life in a major way and you don't just flippantly risk it on a guess.
@@Ssm19494 yeah I was surprised that that was the question cuz I always figured it would be a much more obscure one than that. I definitely learned that in like a middle school textbook I think and it gets a reference every now and then in popular culture.

People wouldn't have noticed if he hadn't stupidly DOUBLE CHECKED every time, causing twice the number of coughs, which people then noticed. He also mentions ALL four options, every question, which is just too odd.
Exactly he kept going around to double check for the coughs. Also he didn't know the answers himself. Which didn't help. Only one coughs would do. Even If he double around to check..but tbh coughing is too obvious to cheat. I use to watch it and think if I keep hearing a cough. I know it's a cheat. Because it's the only way you can cheat.

Have you ever seen this show? People taking their time is the point of it and the rest is editing magic. Anything can sound as loud or silent as the producers want it to.
You can’t hear consistent coughing on correct answer. You can’t hear any at all between questions 10 and 14. Tecwen has never won anything significant in any quiz and makes an completely unrealistic accomplice. Tarrant also heard nothing suspicious on the night.
Ingram is clearly running through the answers to pick up any audience clues in their reaction.
TheBrabon1 this isn’t even an argument theirs to many moments to point out how obvious it was i mean anyone who says anything remotely different has some serious issues. But good plan tho lol
I also cannot believe the Host was oblivious to the coughing that he didn't stop the show and question the woman in the audience doing it and told the man he is cheating.
Vayank123 the host has come out and said many times all the clips we see our with enhanced sound on the coughing and with the clapping and music quieter when he was in their i can imagine its quite hard to concentrate on just the coughing as he is concentrating on the contestant answering the question then all the clapping would just drown out the coughing obviously its easy for us to say why didnt he hear it as we are looking and listening for it.

His wife is even annoyed by his obvious cluelessness. Him saying things like “i don’t even know what a Googol is” but he’s guessing it. And he can’t explain what any of the other answers are. If he at least acted like he knew what the other answers were, as if he could eliminate those, it would’ve been more believable.
And on the final few questions, she looks a lot more concerned and afraid.
Likely because she knew he was going further than what they planned and was acting way too suspicious
What amuses me is that he's never heard of Megatron! 😂😂
I mean if you say you know it, you kinda have to say something after that, which would reveal that you actually have no clue.
His wife pushed him to cheat, then got frustrated that he wasn’t cheating well enough. Oh no, I feel so sorry for her…
Yes if he'd been a better actor and not so mouthy he might have gotten away with it. And the continuous checking each answer. Like the "Gentlemen vs Players" one, he knew. No need for the coughs there. He should have had his own way of signalling back to the coughing guy - or even a series of signals.
They could have gotten away with this. If they'd been a little more thoughtful about it.
The plan was actually a great idea but it was executed so poorly and obvious. Here’s what they should’ve done:
1. The major should’ve read out the answers instead of saying “I don’t think it’s A”
2. They should’ve had 1 cough per question
3. The major should’ve given a code if he knew the answer so they didn’t have to cough, such as saying “right ok” at the start of the question so no coughing would be required
4. The major should’ve walked away at £250,000 in order to not cause too much suspicion
No plan can made better Dan them in the beginning we start with worst Dan go better
you should go and try
It eould have been more sus if there was 1 cough per wuestion. They should have coughed the entire time and cough at the correct amswer before coughing again, to make it seem less obvious.
The coughs need be special like once or twice or sth at correct ans and regular on unrelated occasion so as to make it natural and random.. Besides he was very wrong to make his intentions clear right away.. He couldve just repeated all options again and again waiting for his friend to answer some time obviously not rightaway on the very first repeat..
But yea all this for not too much of a head.. It only reduces the probability of getting caught
too much greed. that's what it is
His overacting cost him tbh. Makes him looks even more suspicious.
I'm shocked by how easy the million question was...
Wasn’t easy back in 2001.
The expression of his wife tells everything: she's pissed at him about how badly he executed their plan. "I've never heard of X" is the worst possible way of testing the options :-DD
The wife looks like a panto villain ... like a murderer in a poirot story. How they didn't pick up on it all sooner 😂
39:05 "I don't actually know what a googol is." then a huge eye roll from his wife 😂
@@surefmeurope5766 I mean to remember that some of the producers picked up on it pretty early on but was told pretend that everything was normal during the show and just deal with it afterwards.
for sure she knew they were toasted,, the last two questions were pushing it way too far, im sure with 250K he would still get away
What made it so fucking crazy is most times the ones that his dumb azz would say he never heard of turned out to be the right fuckin’ answer!!!!!
Michael Sheen really did nail the role of Chris Tarrant and the voice was absolutely spot on! Hope he wins a BAFTA!
He was rubbish. It was embarrassingly cheesy.
me too! You know the guy who plays the accomplice coughing, he is married to sheens cousin in real life!
He wasn't that good. Most people could pass off a weak impression of Tarrant and others would know who they were doing. Sheen is an actor so was bound to be able to pass off a reasonable impression of him.
@MrPolicekarim Who was “coughing accomplice”?
If you're reveling in slandering that Welshman..
...Then do know that his fictionalized-persona was never shown coughing to a particular option.
@DaleyMayall I know, right?
He's that shallow _persona._
No wonder that he got replaced by pigs.
"I don't know what a googol is, but I know what a googol is!"
-Charles Ingram, 2001
In 2021: - "I don't know what a googol is but we'll Google it"
39:44 I love how the announcer just outted their entire production. "You've been lucky for the past hour... Um, PAST 2 DAYS!" pretending that they actually were there for 2 days. Multiple episodes are recorded in a single day.
That's not what he meant. You don't sound native English. You should really learn how to catch social cues. You sound like that one bad friend.
40:00 40:07
Plus everyone is wearing the same clothes
Thank you. I was wondering if it was the second day, why were they wearing the same clothes?
It was recorded over two days, Sept 9 and 10, 2001.
16:57 The guy behind her laughs like he’s been recognizing what she’s been doing the entire time.
Excellent observation 😮😂
@@isaacfurlonge2755 Thank you lol
The couple sitting behind her have noticed her behavior.
23:16 the two are suspiciously eyeballing her😂😂
When I first saw this video I noticed the couple behind his wife laughing every time she coughed it was a dead giveaway. 😮😮They need to go to jail😢😢
"I don't know what your strategy is"
"It's called cheating"
😂 😂
'...deal with it!'
j buta it wouldn’t have been theft if he’d gotten away with it, If it weren’t for that meddling production team
“Just go for it” yeah sure that’s definitely gonna get you places
It would be hilarious “if on phone a friend” Charles Ingram buddy picks up the phone 📲 and coughs
That would be a good sketch
Or...he uses his phone a friend, and Tecwen Whittock's phone goes off in his pocket.
TRUE STORY STRAIGHT UP 😂
The end got nothing and become go to the jail 😑
Won't be hilarious
this might have worked if he didn’t make it so obvious, the half million he went from berlin to paris for no reason , then the million he goes for the one he never heard of. nobody would risk 468,000 to go for an answer they haven’t heard of
He never gave a reason when he selected an answer. 'I think it's Paris because when I was in France I saw a...' or 'I'm going for Craig David because I think my daughter has his album...' etc
Ben Bastiani Art such a smart guy...
His wife is actually the brains lol too bad they didn’t think of getting another player to help them when she was on, her brother was obsessed with the show
Theres no doubt he cheated. but it is odd that were watching this edited footage. I think the footage is spot on. but its very easy to argue that in real time the coughs didnt sync up with the video. Because ITV/celador edited what were watching. It wasnt edited by someone independent or the police.
@@wc389 Do you mean, in your opinion they cheated? They should have dismissed the case as ITV tampered with the 'evidence' before presenting it to the Police!
But he clearly said he hadn't heard of Craig David so how could he give a reason for choosing it?
I’ve never heard of ‘googol’, I don’t think it’s a ‘googol’ , my final answer ‘googol’
It's a nanomole ,,yes definitely nanomole I'm going for nanomole ,,final answer ,,hmm could be googol , cough cough cough ,,,. It's gooogol 😂😂. So fekkin obvious
"I'm sure it's a nanomole, I don't think it's a googol"
Cough cough
"I think it could be googol actually, I don't think it's nanomole. Yes it's googol"
I had to google googol
@@BasherBrookes 😂😂😂😂😂
@@heffman102 cough cough 😂
Clearly cheating. Whether the coughing was enhanced or not, he was dead set on at least a couple of big money answer, heard the cough and change his mind immediately. With no logic. Looked unsure each time

I’ve said this before and I’ll forever stand by this view: what exposed this scheme the most was how Charles’ wife wasn’t even happy that Charles “won” that million. Her face was filled with fear at the end, which would immediately raise suspicion, because everyone else would be cheering them on and going down and hugging them after they won the million, being so happy for them. Aside from the obvious coughing and Charles’ lack of knowledge from the gecko, his wife’s reaction when he “won” gave it away big time.
If he didn't go for the 1 million nobody would have realised tbh
Nine Stone if he went for £500,000, I think there may have been investigation. But if he went for £250,000 he would’ve gotten away with it
@@matthewgriffy exactly
Or maybe not. Tarrant has said in interviews the chaps in the monitoring room grew suspicious early on, and the Craig David moment raised suspicions even further so they immediately began reviewing the tapes once filming stopped. They found the evidence at the second viewing of the raw footage.
@@dogsmusicbookstravelscience someone done their research
Jaco Wium yeah they deffo knew earlier on, but it would’ve been a lot harder to prove in court. The fact that he played the last two questions in the manner he did made it 10x more obvious he was cheating, thus having a stronger case against him
Ingram: “I don’t think so”
*cough
Ingram: “Yes I’m positive”
😭😭😂😂👍👍
He's like Biden on steroids in this art. LOL.
@@leonardos2925 Joever
when they won the million the wife looked so guilty and on edge, like she was thinking about something, probably thinking wether they were going to get out of the studio with no questions asked. normally when your partner wins one million you would be so care free and happy.
How would you know has your partner won a million quid? In all seriousness I think they're guilty too but if I say won the lottery I would still be sheepish and on edge until the cheque was cleared or the money showing up as available balance in my account
By looking at all other contestants who won maybe? She had a nervous and guilty reaction even before he won compared to all other previous contestants.
Absolutely fascinating.
Have to admit I was sure he was guilty as sin... going through this I got more doubtful... then I got to the berlin/Paris question and it becomes so obvious. He decides to go for Paris out of absolutely nowhere when he was so sure it was Berlin. Cheat
Martin Flood changes his mind out of nowhere on a question about champagne late in his run.
@@SteRDLK but did he change his mind consistently and was able to get it right each time?
It's the other way around Matty. But yeh I think he was seconds away from playing Berlin but the coughing made him change his mind to Paris.
It's a German name tbf and I would have walked into that trap as well.
Eugene Kwan yes
If he didn’t take so much time with the questions, he wouldn’t have gotten caught. a lot of them he guessed the right answer first, but then took more time just to make sure. The last two questions were painfully obvious he didn’t actually know em.
Besides the coughs.. his way to think, his culture, his speed in Switching answers Without hesitating considering the ipothetical money loss without knowing anything about the subject... Everything is just unreal
They're really quite daft to think that this would work without anyone clueing in.
And his wife's tearless, expression-less, scared face after he won. They were so certain that they would go through this unnoticed, that they didn't act well.
@@julius7506 I think even before that point, she already thought that they could get caught, because Charles made them repeat the cough so many times and never managed to get a correct answer by himself, so the cheat became more and more obvious. That's why she's furious even after winning. She was like "They're probably going to catch us but let's act happy still, just in case they don't."
😅😅😅
He should have faced charges for that outfit he was wearing too! 🤣😂🤣
Wow never even heard of this. What a wild ride, and so well put together! Thanks for the upload
There is a new lifeline. "Cough a friend"😂😂
💀💀💀💀
😂😂😂😂
The cool thing about that new lifeline is that you could use it more than once. 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
So funny😂💀
If I were in the audience I would start coughing with the wrong answers 😂😂
me too
No one knew in the audience knew about it dumbo.
😂😂😂😂😂
You would have to first realise that they're doing it in the first place. Trust me most people are so oblivious to many things in their daily life not even noticing it and you wouldnt notice it too.
You'd havta know the right answers first lol
Crazy how awkward this makes me feel. I hate seeing people be dishonest. Pathetic!
I actually had secondhand embarrassment multiple times throught this vid 😮😢😂
Her face when he said never heard of Craig David kept saying A1 yet suddenly changed his mind to Craig David right after his wife coughing which was so embarrassing
He screwed up by mentioning what he thinks of each answer when he doesn’t even know it - ‘I don’t think it’s Paris’ *Cough* ‘Actually I think it’s Paris’ Too obvious. If he at least said ‘well, Paris... Berlin... etc.’ & then waited for coughs, he would’ve played it out much better & it would be less suspicious. Though with the crew on the guy at the finger seat from an early stage I think they would have busted him anyway.
good points made there
exactly, the acting and tricks could have been wayyy better, especially in going u-turns for the Paris and googol questions... he could have just mentioned names instead of saying" it is " or " i think" and changing it later with no proper reason.
Game would be well easy to cheat if they never checked phones. They were too greedy and didnt look for a more viable way of communicating the answers.
Look up, if they cough answer is either A or B. Look left, it is A look right it is B.
Look down, answer is either C or D. Same as above.
All they need to do is have a scratch, whistle, cough, sneeze anything to indicate. Saves looking like a twat repeating the questions.
Hell, if they had time. An electric buzzer would have sorted him out big time, no noise, just a vibration in his pocket.
You go on the show then lmao
@@rachelforsyth8631 Wouldn't work now, that clown fucked up all chances lol
I wish they’d just shown the unedited version so I can come to the conclusions myself. I don’t want to be told to listen carefully I want to see if I notice things myself
true
The guy sitting behind Ingrams wife furing the Cra8d David question and the FFF guy who testified as a witness were sure they were chesting so Im not too worried about your opinion.
So 3 relatives managed to get on the show by.... Chance?
But its quite obvious..
He is a big cheat
No ones Luck And Guesses Works everytime..
He dint know any of the answers.. just travelled across each option and waited for the cough on correct one
And if defend had to prove themselves right so they lied and stated rubbish ...
@@my_other_account6008 of cource..
They Cheated
Whole Documentary is made now
On it
I don't understand how still people doubt on it 😅
If channel has to hide smthing or had edited the clip in reality then Why will the Channel itself show Defend's claims?
yep, hardly unedited
That every time he answers a question , his one answer"I am not sure".
He executed this so badly. Not only are there a couple of u-turns. But he also repeated the answers so often that the wife had to cough at least three times at the right answer before he finally chose it. And the real question is: If the wife was able to answer all these question, why wasn't she on the chair?!
She wasnt alone, her brother helped him too bu coughing. When he didnt know the answer, he asked people in the audience
She had been on the show but never made it to the hot seat
@@ItsAllLove4Real Incorrect. She did make it to the hot seat not too long before Charles did. She walked away with 32,000 pounds after getting the 64,000 answer wrong. The host Chris T. even commented on the documentary by ITV that even though she won a lot of money, she was visibly pissed off because she wanted to go higher.
I’m sure they only new the answers because the system generating the questions had been hacked and therefore they knew the questions before hand. I might be totally wrong but I know it’s something to do with the system due to the ITV drama/documentary
I think Larry Whitehurst mentioned that he heard all but one of the coughs coming from Tecwen Whittock; the odd one out was on the 50:50, from Diana.
Word of advice for all future people: If you want to cheat cheat well
Or better advice don't cheat.
Michael Brock yeah you will get found out
The Runaway Kid Umm I would think you would say don’t cheat because it’s bad not cuz you might get found out 😅
Pumpkin Thumb practice with different signal sounds
😂😂
The "eurotrash" and "eurovision" answers lmaoo
At about 11:51 one option is khashhogi which in hindi means it'll cough 😱
