Who Wants to be a Millionaire? cheat Major Charles Ingram is taking part in a new TV show.

Ingram will join other celebrities, including Big Brother's "Nasty" Nick Bateman and TV psychologist Dr Raj Persaud, in the second series of Celebrity Poker Club.

The celebrities will battle it out for £25,000 prize money on Challenge, the games entertainment channel.

The former Army major, who has personal debts of more than £300,000, was ordered by appeal judges to pay the financial penalty for his TV fraud within three months or face nine months' imprisonment.

A court heard how Ingram gambled £4,000 of his pension on a stock market spread bet in a desperate attempt to raise the cash.

Ingram and wife Diana were each fined £15,000 and ordered to pay £10,000 costs, in addition to 18-month suspended jail sentences, after being found guilty last year of trying to cheat the ITV1 quiz out of £1 million.
