The chosen one

LONDON: Fraudsters of the TV quiz show `Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?' fame, Charles and Diana Ingram want George Clooney and Catherine Zeta Jones to play their roles in a movie on the scam. The couple are forbidden under British law to profit from their crime in this country, but offers from outside the United Kingdom are acceptable. Though they protest their innocence, they were given suspended sentences and £15,000 fines for using coughs to signal correct answers on the show. Film companies are desperate to buy the rights to their story. The Army Major, from Easterton, Wilts, said on BBC Radio 2: "If a film is made, I would like to play myself as I don't think anyone else could do it better. But failing that, I'd go for George Clooney." — ANI
