 | | LONDON In one of the nation's most closely watched spectacles combining courtroom drama and celebrity television, a British army major, his wife and an accomplice were found guilty Monday of trying to cheat the television show "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" out of its jackpot prize worth $1.6 million. |
 | | Prosecutors alleged that Charles Ingram, who appeared on the television show as a contestant in the so-called "hot seat," was steered through a series of multiple choice questions by coughs from Whittock and, on one occasion, Diana Ingram, both of whom were sitting in the audience. |
 | | Whittock left London's Southwark Crown Court to a chorus of cries of "cheat" and a cacophony of coughing from onlookers. |
