What BollyAI Thinks

Quiz landed on ITV in April 2020 during the first COVID-19 lockdown, attracting 5.3 million viewers for its opening episode. The miniseries dramatises the now-legendary tale of Charles Ingram, the army major who won one million pounds on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire in 2001 and was subsequently convicted of procuring that win by fraud - allegations he has always denied. Matthew Macfadyen and Sian Clifford play the Ingrams with an ambiguity the script deliberately refuses to resolve, leaving audiences to weigh their guilt or innocence long after the credits roll. Michael Sheen's portrait of host Chris Tarrant earned a BAFTA nomination. Critics clustered around the show's moral playfulness: USA Today noted that what elevates it beyond scripted docudrama is the quality of the ensemble.
