I can't believe that she is being filmed boasting that she wrote the script. That's so wrong. In fact, it's almost (actually) immoral that they are filming her saying it and presumably not telling the judges.

That poor girl was up against an adult.

At least Hugo's parent's didn't do his work for him.

MsJupiterJones · 02/07/2013 21:30

Because she left her child to cry last week and cheated this week?

They are all a little grotesque and of course it's edited. But MN would surely more naturally side with the single mum, it's just that we've seen some irredeemable harshness.

Oscar and Lara seem realy lovely children.
Respect to Shrinidhi only been in UK 3 yrs and english as 2nd language!

Team Geek - love it!!!!

cafenoir · 02/07/2013 21:33

Team Geek. Love it. What lovely kids. Shame we've seen so little of Ben and Rohan up to now. Ben's Mum seems encouraging but in tune with her child and his needs.

MsJupiterJones · 02/07/2013 21:33

Agree that other parents almost certainly helped write scripts but she was taking pride in having written the whole thing.

Agree with kim that they should have had to prepare alone, I had to do that for my secondary school interview.

Grin these three boys remind me of DS1 and his friends.

Ben needs a haircut - that must be sooooo annoying having flicky hair in your eyes constantly!!!

Sorry on a tangent!!

cafenoir · 02/07/2013 21:35

Gosh, Rohan is under a lot of pressure.

If you are a boy child genius is it compulsory to have long hair? Confused

girliefriend · 02/07/2013 21:42

Really don't want Connor to win, his mum is awful Angry

Happymum22 · 02/07/2013 21:43

Thought lara was lovely, shame we didn't see more of her.

blueemerald · 02/07/2013 21:44

Poor old Connor. His mum is a piece of work.

They can work the sums out on paper? How does that make them genius? I would have thought they would have to work it out in their heads!

I wonder if David Cameron could spell 'metallurgy' under pressure? It's got to come in useful in the House of Commons occasionally.

SauceForTheGander · 02/07/2013 21:51

Wow that's some pep talk face from Connor's mum
