It's possible. I've never seen Quiz Show. I know WWTBAM is huge here and got huge in the US, and then this actually happened; a guy - well a syndicate - cheated their way to a million pounds and there was a court case. The thing about this is that it shows the idea behind the show, how it was created, how it started, how much opposition there was in the beginning to it, how it changed and how easy (apparently) it was to cheat. It's only in three parts but very much worth watching.
