Child genius -which bright spark decided to put it on on a Tuesday???
(442 Posts)Anyone watching?
<checking in>
marking my place
'I don't think my dad believes in me'
Yes, already feel sorry for this poor boy
Poor boy!
Not surprised social services called round after that!!
The chinese cupping thing - my goodness.
I'm going to be watching it with a delay. Marking place for later.
I quite like the brothers -seem pretty grounded not that i'm jumping to conclusions
As usual a lot of the parents are barmy.
I wonder whether they'd enter themselves if there was just a Genius competition.
Holly does not want to be there does she?
'My child doesn't like attention -I know, I'll put her on the tv!'
Oh?
Poor Holly. She looks terrified
Why is Holly putting herself through this? She looks petrified!
Please forgive me if I'm wrong but this isn't 'child genius' stuff but 'stuff we can remember'. Just being able to remember stuff doesn't make you a genius.
I don't know, Pipbin; it's not stuff you could just remember if there was no context. And the Maths questions certainly couldn't be pre-prepared.
Damn! Missed first bit. Only seen a bit of Holly. She doesn't look a very happy child, poor thing
I hate it when they go out in the early rounds if the later rounds are their strengths.
Ahh, I've only seen them doing general knowledge questions. I didn't see the other rounds.
In my opinion it should be problem solving and lateral thinking.
Again, poor kids
Thomas - bloody hell
Wow -that was impressive!
Why has she named one of her sons after a green leafy vegetable?
I find it interesting that the proportion of non white British children is much higher than in the population as a whole.
