Anyone actually think there was a miscarriage of justice there?

Ok - it's a drama on tv . Probably a fair bit of poetic license- but I'm just not convinced they cheated and should have been denied the prize ....

Anyone else ?

I finished watching thinking that I still don't know who is right!!

Oh I’m only two episodes in and they look insanely guilty!! Now I’m desperate to finish to see why they might not be

Well- that's what I thought at episode 2. But after the third- not so sure!

There was a documentry about this about 10 years ago which demonstrated clearly how guilty they are. Its so obvious the way he kept changing his answer. They cheated.

He was also convicted of insurance fraud. Guilty as hell and very arrogant imho

They were definitely guilty. I think the TV drama is trying to make us viewers feel sorry for them.

The series is based on a play/book which is pro-Ingram, so I think we aren't necessarily getting the full picture.

There's a good article in the Telegraph about Aisling Bea's character. She goes into more detail about it all:

The only reason ITV managed to identify the Cougher in Chief as Tecwen Whittock, explains Rosencrantz, is that Adrian Woolfe had licenced the set that night to About a Boy — the Hugh Grant film of Nicky Hornby’s novel. “There’s a scene in the film where they go to an episode of Millionaire, and because they were going to film the audience as well, we had to get them all to sign consent forms. Otherwise we’d never have known who was sitting where. That was pure fluke”.
