[Part 1] This amazing documentary tells the story of how a painter and decorator deceived his wife, family, friends ... and bank manager into believing he had won a £8.9 million jackpot on the National Lottery. The ‘Lottery Liar’ and his wife detail their extraordinary story, alternatively hilarious and pitifully sad, of how they went on a frenzied spending spree. Featuring the victims of Howard’s deceit, the architects and designers called in to plan a swimming pool, a gym and a snooker room but who were never paid and the detectives who finally caught up with him and the court case that followed.
