The first trailer for ITV's Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? coughing scandal series Quiz has dropped, showcasing Michael Sheen in action as Chris Tarrant.
The Good Omens star plays the popular game show host in the three-part series, which dramatises the infamous 2001 scandal.
It saw Charles Ingram (Matthew Macfadyen) and wife Diana (Sian Clifford) accused of conspiring with accomplice Tecwen Whittock (Michael Jibson) to rig a round of the ITV competition show.
In the trailer, we see Sheen in action as Tarrant on the show's iconic set, as well as the scandal unfolding – including the infamous coughs when a correct answer was read out.
Sheen spoke previously to Digital Spy about transforming for the role, admitting it wasn't too hard given his propensity for playing real-life characters.
"If there's one thing I'm known for by most people," Sheen said, "it's for having played characters – whether it's David Frost or Tony Blair or Kenneth Williams or Brian Clough, so it's not something that is new to me.

He added: "It's a real person and people are very familiar with him so that's a big part of what your preparation is.
"I've done it a few times so I have a way of working on it. It requires different preparation but not entirely. But part of it is playing a character that isn't a fictitious character."
Quiz begins on ITV in April.
