Ingram Wilcox (born 1944) is a British quiz enthusiast who is best known for becoming the fifth and final person to win £1 million on ''Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?'' in the United Kingdom on 23 September 2006. When he reached the million-pound question, he had already used up all his lifelines. In two previous appearances he reached the "fastest finger first" stage but didn't get through. His final question was "Which boxer was famous for striking the gong in the introduction to J. Arthur Rank films?" He correctly chose Bombardier Billy Wells to win the prize.〔The last Gongman, Ken Richmond, had died on August 3, 2006, not long before the show was recorded.〕 In 1980 he reached the final of ''Mastermind'' but came third, beaten by Fred Housego. His specialist subject was "The Crusades 1095–1192" in both his heat and the final, but in the semi-final he chose the rather broad subject of "Mammals". He also appeared a few times on ''Fifteen to One'' in 1995 and 1996, and was a notable witness to the famous outtake where host William G. Stewart dropped his question cards whilst explaining the rules of the first round in 1995. He is a father of five and has worked in the civil service for most of his life, having previously worked in illustration of educational books. He is the son of the eminent painter Leslie Arthur Wilcox and brother of the famous photographer William Wilcox. ==Ingram's complete run to the million== These are the questions Ingram faced to win a million pounds.
