A TV version of the panel show in which Dave Gorman and a celebrity guest take a range of ideas from the public, in the hope they will find something they can class as 'Genius'. See our guide to the radio series for more on the concept. Our Review: This show works quite well on radio, but whether it successfully transfered to the more demanding TV medium is still up for debate. It was great to see some of the strange inventions on screen, but some fans of the original radio version were annoyed at re-visiting some of the old ideas that were previously broadcast on the Radio 4 version (with, in some cases, the ideas re-classified from genius to not-genius, and visa versa, in the process!). |
