Test your knowledge by answering the questions three Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? winners aced – without cheating

COUGHING Major Charles Ingram cheated his way to the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? jackpot but YOU could win it fair and square – could you not?

ITV’s three-part drama Quiz, recreating Ingram’s con on the ITV gameshow in 2001, and the ensuing court case, closed tonight with Matthew Macfadyen in the lead role and Michael Sheen as host Chris Tarrant.

Here, we see if you have what it might take to win the £1million payout with your grey matter alone.

Five people have done that, with no foul play, on the show hosted by Tarrant from 1998 until 2014.

Emily Fairbairn reveals the questions three of them aced – Judith Keppel, David Edwards and Pat Gibson – for you to test your skill against.

And no coughing, please.
