"This is a British mini series that is only 3 episodes long and based on true events. It is surrounding the game show "who wants to be a millionaire". It was very well done. It sucked my hubby in when he really wanted to go get some breakfast. The main character of Matthew Macfayden did a great job as Charles Ingram. Martin Sheen did a wonderful job as Chris Tarrant. The entire cast was wonderful. I wouldn't say it is about a couple that were found cheating the game. The way this show is presented, it makes it look like they are cheating using some advantages. But ***Spoilers from this point on*** the ending of the show left huge doubt about whether or not they were really cheating or if there was just some circumstances that happened by chance. It also uncovered a huge network of cheaters not even connected to this couple. Also the Show leaves some doubts about the honesty of the television network since they televised the court case and made a huge amount of money from the viewership of it. This couple and their family were publicly shamed and harrassed in a vicious way to the point that someone shot and killed their dog. Yes, this mini series had a lot of highs and lows. Whether they cheated or not they certainly have been punished by the public."
