Channel 4’s Child Genius five-part series has started and sees 20 of the country’s brainiest eight-12-year-olds battle it out to see who will be crowned Britain’s brightest child.

Among those taking part are cheeky David, 11, who got his maths A-level at 10, and Thomas, 12, who plays four musical instruments, devours 15 books a week and likes to stay up to speed with the financial markets.

And it’s not just the children who are fascinating to watch- but their parents too. Like single mum Elaine who won’t accept less than 18 out of 20 in a spelling test from sons Ethan, 11, and Kale, nine.

Our quiz below starts with the general knowledge and logic questions and finishes with maths problems.

Here’s your chance to see if you can answer some of the show’s toughest questions. But be warned, they are hard...
