Child genius

[AnonymousTomato]

Is anyone watching on channel 4?

I remember a show on to that demonstrated how to memorise a deck of cards. Some of the science ones were tricky though and I'm useless at anograms.

I think a proper genius would be the kid saying 'you know the Fibonacci sequence... I've spotted an error there...' or 'I've invented air con for the tube that works!'

Joshua to win.

I think these kids are obviously very bright but it's the ability to use your brain for reasoning and application of your knowledge , not just remembering stuff.

I saw a programme ages ago about a young lad that thought he could cure cancer , when he spoke to the doctors it was clear that he had a good knowledge on the subject but was unable to actually analyse or debate it.

I think Rahul lacks social skills which in my book is right up there with being clever.

I liked how when Dylan had only got 13 his attitude was 'I did my best, what can you do' - I hate it when they are under so much pressure they clearly think a poor score is the end of the world.

Poor Ronan is going to be burnt out by the time he's 13 !

I've gone right off Rahul. I like Ronan and Dylan. Don't mind Joshua

I like Dylan. What an obscure subject he chose.

Roman has gone up in my estimation. His comments to Dylan seemed genuine and heartfelt.

It's going to be a tie break

Joshua saying "good luck" and Rahoul's dad saying "THANK YOU" back ... He's awful. Poor Rahoul he isn't celebrating because it isn't being portrayed as his achievement.

@MelvinThePenguin Totally agree. Another example of the parents trying to take credit.

I mean I don't like to speak ill of children or their parents. But really not a fan of Rahul, or his dad.

if i was in that audience i would not be able to contain myself near Rahul's smug Dad !

Bugger

Parma - totally agree, but obviously it has rubbed off on the son.

Did you see the Dad raise the trophy at the end for "his" victory! Cringe.

Aww

Well done Rahul. Rahul's dad looked happier about it than Rahul did.

OMG That man is awful

Taking it from his son then Lifting the trophy like that

How to win obnoxious dad award

oh no...i wanted ronan to win. wanted to slap rahuls dad ...stupid ass

I felt like that about Rahul's Dad, totally obnoxious. I pity his son's teachers on parents evening.

I switched off as soon as they said Rahul had won, I couldn't bear to see his dad be so smug - it sounds like I did the right thing!
