Charles William Ingram (born 6 August 1963) is a former British Army major who made headlines worldwide from being convicted for cheating to win the jackpot on the game show Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? in 2001. He was convicted on the single count of deception.
He is married to Diana Ingram (born 1965) and has since participated in other television shows, including The Weakest Link (where he appeared with his wife Diana), Wife Swap (in which he swapped lives with Jade Goody's boyfriend) and Hell's Kitchen and controversially on Big Brother's Big Mouth.
Charles Ingram went to Oswestry School and obtained a BSc in Civil Engineering from Kingston Polytechnic, an MSc in Corporate Management from the Defence College of Management and Technology part of Cranfield University, Chartered membership of the Institute of Personnel and Development, membership of the Chartered Management Institute, membership of the Association for Project Management, and membership of the Society of Authors. He joined Mensa in January 2003, three months before the court case. In 1986, he trained for the Army at Sandhurst and was commissioned as an officer in the Royal Engineers. He was promoted to the rank of captain in 1990 and major in 1995, and in 1999, he served in Bosnia for six months on NATO peacekeeping duties. He was forced to resign from the Army in August 2003, and give up his rank of major.

Charles is a masculine given name from the French form Charles of a Germanic name Karl. The original Anglo-Saxon was Ċearl or Ċeorl, as the name of king Cearl of Mercia, that disappeared after the Norman conquest of England.
The corresponding Old Norse form is Karl, the German form is also Karl. The name was notably borne by Charlemagne (Charles the Great), and was at the time Latinized as Karolus (as in Vita Karoli Magni), later also as Carolus.
The name's etymology is a Common Germanic noun *karlaz meaning "free man", which survives in English as churl (< Old English ċeorl), which developed its deprecating sense in the Middle English period.
In the form Charles, the initial spelling ch- corresponds to the palatalization of the Latin group ca- to [tʃa] in Central Old French (Francien) and the final -s to the former subjective case (cas sujet) of masculine names in Old French like in Giles or James (< Latin -us, see Spanish/ Portuguese Carlos).
According to Julius Pokorny, the historical linguist and Indo-Europeanist, the root meaning of Karl is "old man", from Indo-European *ĝer-, where the ĝ is a palatal consonant, meaning "to rub; to be old; grain." An old man has been worn away and is now grey with age.

A short cut of all the coughs during Charles Ingram's fraudulent attempt to win £1000000 on the gameshow Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? Through coughing–an act that could interfere and interrupt a broadcast–at the moments that the correct answer was mentioned, Ingram’s wife Diana and an accomplice and the next contestant Tecwen Whitlock both helped Ingram win the top prize and get convicted. While other contestants and production crew were suspicious at the time of filming, it was later confirmed through analysis of the footage and in court. For research purposes :)

If the legitimacy of a show comes into question, audiences stop watching, advertisers drop out, and millions go un-won, so it’s important to keep things on the level. Still, despite preventative anti-cheating measures, a few crafty individuals have won big by beating the system. Here are a few of TV’s most notable modern day Robin Hoods...

Credit goes to RomeijnLand. In an episode of the show recorded on 9 September 2001, Charles Ingram won the £1,000,000 prize. During the recording it was noticed that a suspicious pattern of coughing could be heard. Ingram's unusual behaviour in the hot seat also drew attention. Analysed, it was believed that another contestant, Tecwen Whittock, sitting behind him, was offering him prompts in the form of coughs, indicating the correct answers. On some of the questions, Ingram read aloud all of the four answers, until a significant cough was heard, before choosing his answer. In some cases, he dismissed an answer, read aloud the answer choices again, and then picked the answer which he had earlier dismissed. It also appeared on the tapes that after Ingram repeated a particular incorrect ...

Saturday night's Who Wants To Be A Millionaire which with no warning or explanation (until two thirds through the way when Chris has changed suits and announces it still with no explanation) is 20 minutes longer than it normally is, there's confetti on the floor and Tarrant makes vague but noticeable references to 'the next million'. The truth to be revealed was stranger yet in fact it was the first story within 10 days to knock the New York terrorist attacks off the front page of any national tabloid. Of course this is that same episode in which Major Charles Ingram is completely omitted due to accusations of cheating which he was later found guilty of in a high profile trial of 2003. Yet again many many thanks to ben crowl for filling in what was taped over (you'll be able to tell wher...
