This new quiz show - a big hit in the US - starts today on Sky One. Hosted by Noel Edmonds, it puts adults to the test, as they tackle questions on subjects spanning the National Curriculum that any ten-year-old should be able to answer.
With an ultimate cash prize of £250,000, it's a battle of nerves as contestants must choose whether to go it alone and trust their own knowledge, or ask the help of one of their ten-year-old classmates.
The adults' reputations are on the line as they risk the humiliation of being outsmarted by a kid. Will they jeopardise the jackpot for the sake of saving face? If they lose they will have to drop out of school and be forced to utter TV's most embarrassing line: "I am not smarter than a ten-year-old."
But don't underestimate the challenge; after all Mozart composed his first pieces when he was five, Picasso painted Picador when he was eight, Song Yoo-geun was a physics prodigy who entered university at eight, while Tatum O'Neal won an Oscar at ten.

Hi
HI I really like the show its really factual and I am a smart 8 year old. My mum, dad and Grandad could win. I love Mishsa because not only beatyful but smart she is. I love it when the class come in shouting, screaming, talking and above all the crowd claping, cheering and whistleing. And I love it when Dic,Dom or Noel say the class mates names they do there own little thing like pointing, robots or flinging hair.

I love are you smarter than a ten year old, it's the best! When I watch the T.V show after school at five I always answer the questions. I am not in yr 6 but in yr 7, age 11.
It would be amazing to be on T.V answering both hard and easy questions, imagine......

April 7th, 2008 - 5:35pmGene Hunt said...
I get annoyed at what they say about those kids. Before the show they read the answers out of textbooks so they are not that clever. Besides those questions are not for the average ten year old.

i think mr dick is very cool and sexi.......!!!!! he a joy to watch...!!!!!!
This is Katie's (from AYS) dad. Nice to hear you enjoyed the show.
To answer a few questions
1. They have chosen the children for the next series and will start filming in a few weeks. They have already filmed shows over Easter, but I expect they won't go out till October.
2. www.twofour.co.uk are the company who make the show for Sky so keep an eye out on their web site for audition news. I expect it will be around Jan-Feb when they will start looking again.
3. If you want to visit the show, goto this site. http://www.applausestore.com/applausestore-book-show.php?id=60&bid=1
It's filmed in Elstree Studio, which is basically near Watford, which is just north west of London.

July 22nd, 2008 - 11:58amSylvia Penn said...
Went to see this show at Elstree Studios yesterday, 21st. July. Unfortunately Noel Edmunds wasnt there. Very disappointed. It was Dick and Dom. We were kept waiting standing up for 2 hours before we went in and then kept an hour and a half over the end time stated. The children were promised goody bags by the audience warm up person, Andy, and nothing materialised. I think they should look after their audience better. I know its free but we are not cattle or sheep. There was no information in the cafe area as to what we were supposed to be doing or how long we would be there and the security guards seemed mute except to each other. Disappointed from Woking!
