    Garden designer Keppel, from Staffordshire, was the first person to win £1million on the show in 2000, when it was hosted by Chris Tarrant. Keppel’s million-pound question was: “Which king was married to Eleanor Aquitaine?” which she correctly answered as Henry II.

    Ingram also correctly answered the million-pound question in 2001, but his win was discounted as he was accused of cheating amid the infamous coughing scandal. He did not get to keep his winnings – though some still believe he is innocent. His story formed the basis of ITV drama Quiz which aired earlier this year.
