The trailer for the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire drama Quiz has been released and we’re already hooked.
ITV released the teaser for the three-part series on Friday, as they also confirmed it will be arriving on screens in April.
Quiz tells the extraordinary and sensational story of how Charles and Diana Ingram attempted an ‘audacious heist’ on the quiz show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?.
Major Ingram, his wife Diana and an accomplice, Tecwen Whittock – who was sitting in the audience – were accused of cheating their way to the million pound prize in 2001.
Just in case you’re not familiar with the story, we’re not going to go into too much more details – but based off the trailer, it looks like Quiz will definitely be worth watching.
First look at Michael Sheen as Chris Tarrant in ‘Quiz’ coming to ITV and AMC next year
