Rory Bremner says Chris Tarrant dislikes his portrayal in new play<\/h3>\n

Actor Rory Bremner revealed Chris Tarrant hates the portrayal of him in the recent Who Wants to Be a Millionaire play called Quiz.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday\u2019s instalment of BBC Breakfast, the actor spoke to Sally Nugent and Ben Thompson about his portrayal of Chris Tarrant.<\/p>\n

During their discussion, he confessed the former presenter of the quiz show is less than impressed with how he\u2019s being portrayed.<\/p>\n

Rory said: \u201cI\u2019m spending weeks as Chris Tarrant, which he hates!\u201d<\/p>\n

Doing an impersonation of the 77-year-old, Rory commented: \u201cIt\u2019s nothing like me, it absolutely [isn’t] – who are you being?! I have no idea who you\u2019re being.\u201d<\/p>\n

As Sally could be heard laughing, the actor went on to explain what the play is about as the scandal unfolded 22 years ago.<\/p>\n

The cheating scandal emerged after Charles Ingram went on to win the show, despite having a poor performance on the first night.<\/p>\n

Managing to answer the questions correctly on his final night, Charles went on to get the million-pound cash prize, although bosses had their suspensions with his change in performance.<\/p>\n

Going back over the tapes, coughs could be heard when Chris was reading out the possible answers, which coincided with the correct ones.<\/p>\n
