The major convicted of cheating on ITV game show Who Wants To Be A Millionaire today furiously vowed ‘The truth will out’ as he slated a documentary on the scandal.
Charles Ingram, 57, hit out after Who Wants To Be A Millionaire: The Million Pound Question screened on ITV last night.
He, his wife Diana and their accomplice Tecwen Whittock were convicted in 2003 of Procuring the Execution of a Valuable Security by Deception.
It came two years after he won the top £1million prize on the hit quiz show, aided by the other pair. They have always claimed their innocence.
But a jury agreed Major Ingram was directed to the right answers by coughs from Whittock.
