Ah thank you! Missed that. I might watch the first one again actually as my kids were rudely interrupting me lolYes in the first episode, the brother in law gets given a number to call from another contestant. It’s a guy who runs a quiz group with links all over the country and claims he can help get him on the show and stuff, for a fee if I remember rightly.
If it wasn't for those pesky kidsAh thank you! Missed that. I might watch the first one again actually as my kids were rudely interrupting me lol
I love these people who come up with this stuff. There’s just something so British about laughing and poking fun at the way people waveOh my god this twitter thread
They didn't, in real life they never had a dog. It did say at the start of each episode that it wasn't completely factually accurate. Apparently they had a cat, not sure if anything happened to that or not, but they never had a dog.I can’t believe someone shot their pet dog! And their poor children being bullied at school because of it all. It’s not like they killed someone ffs, yes what they did was wrong but this crime is pretty tame compared to most. Certainly not worth killing their family pet and slashing their tyres over and I did feel for them for that.
It was his cat not a dog and she survived. I checked his TwitterThey didn't, in real life they never had a dog. It did say at the start of each episode that it wasn't completely factually accurate. Apparently they had a cat, not sure if anything happened to that or not, but they never had a dog.
The mini series was based on a West End play of the same name, which is where the weird Tarrant to camera bit on the end originates from - the audience in the theatre were asked to vote at the end on whether they thought the Ingrams were guilty or not. Im not sure if the shot dog was invented for the play and so kept in for the TV version, or was only invented for this TV version. But either way ITV should be ashamed, for showing something so emotive, but which never happened at all.
............ they were inundated that's why they had to have such an intricate system of cheats to actually get on?Has anyone else being surprised at how easy it seems to be to get on the show? I've never applied to be on a quiz show but I always thought they'd be inundated with applications.
I think maybe one of the reasons they wont show it is because I thought it said viewers couldn't hear the coughing?It would be good if ITV aired the original documentary that they made after the trial, Major Fraud it was called.
“Quiz” was very sympathetic towards the Ingrams - I wasn't at all surprised to find out that they actually met with the producers while it was being filmed!! So it sounds to me like they had some sort of influence with the way it was made, ending in the question of whether they were guilty or not.
Of course they were bloody guilty, watch the factual documentary and it will leave you in no doubt! Rather than a fictional drama that was influenced by the Ingrams
You can see the episode on YouTube and the coughing is very obvious - which I think is the result of itv isolating it so it wasn’t so blatant at the time. But anyone interested should check that out, it’s weird to watch, her reactions especially where so unsubtle.I think maybe one of the reasons they wont show it is because I thought it said viewers couldn't hear the coughing?
I remember this haA few years after the show the Ingrams went on wife swap with Jade goody and her ex partner! Full episode is on YouTube. It’s a great watch!!
