    There was a famous case in the UK quite recently on "Who wants to be a millionaire" where someone made the £1000,000 by answering each answer following a cough. Whenever the right answer was mentioned, a cough was heard so the the contestant knew which option to go for. He was hung drawn and quartered by Joe Public... but like all good TV, he became a celeb because of it. Go figure.

    • Yes, there was all sorts of publicity after this. Tecwin (sp?) Whittock was the man who coughed, following an agreement with Charles Ingram before the show started. Whittock was one of the ten that sits around the edge as possible contestants if they win Fastest Finger, Ingram was the contestant answering the questions.
