Child Genius: Season 2006, Episode 1

2006 - 1: Episode 1

The first episode of this two-part series catches up with the programme's youngest prodigies. Peter, at 11, is England's under-12s chess champion; Adam, now eight and a half, is heading off to a prestigious boarding school; and Mikhail, now five and a half, is a maths prodigy turned spelling star. And a new Child Genius is introduced: three-year-old Georgia. When Georgia was two and three-quarters, she became Britain's youngest member of Mensa. Her mother Lucy is so desperate for Georgia to get into a nearby school that she had her IQ tested to try and get her in. But will Georgia's gift win her a place?
