Captain Tom: Where Did the Money Go? review: a grubby tale that masks a great legacy

in The Rail


“Hannah and Colin Ingram-Moore declined to take part in this programme,” a caption read at the end of Captain Tom: Where Did the Money Go? (Channel 5). Thank goodness for that. Anyone who watched their self-incriminating interview with Piers Morgan for TalkTV a few weeks back will know that these two are an absolute disaster area in front of the camera.

Whether through naivety or arrogance, the couple thought they could sit down with one of Britain’s sharpest interviewers and convince him – and us – about the merits of their “spa pool” and the pocketing of up to £800,000 from her father’s books. What a fall from grace.

    Enjoyed watching that. The spa pool was indefensible.

    For me, it wasn't the £800k-it was the fact that the books made it look like all the money was going to charity. I think people would have had no problem if the books were honest about where the money would go.

    oof

    Just had a sneaky look, that was when there were 3 players left & was for the chip lead.

    Probably cost you about £2,500.

    ;)

    I think so.
    Cant moan though, as I still had a good day.
    This one was in the 7.30 6k guaranteed BH, with 14 left.

    Gotta love the glorious uncertainty of poker. Sometimes...

    For sure, sometimes.
    I benefitted from some of that uncertainty earlier, as I was down to 12k in chips just after the bubble.
    So I am not moaning, and £1236 plus £90 in the other one, is not a bad pay day.
