These 28 memes about ITV’s Quiz prove how wild this show really is

I’m obsessed

4 years ago

This week, we’ve all been hooked on ITV drama Quiz – all about the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire coughing scandal with Charles and Diana Ingram. The series is absolutely wild and nobody can even believe this crazy story actually happened in real life. Twitter has become filled with Quiz memes, of everyone sharing just how shook they truly are.

We are all on tenterhooks awaiting every coughing sound from the audience, desperate for even more iconic TV moments to be dramatised and simply cannot get over how accurate Michael Sheen’s portrayal of Chris Tarrant is.

Here are all the best Quiz memes so far. You’re welcome.

1. A personal thank you is necessary

I’d like to publicly congratulate whoever at ITV decided to put Quiz on over 3 consecutive nights. Imagine having to wait a week??
