Mothership is producing a second season of Secret Genius, which returns with seven episodes hosted by Alan Carr and Susie Dent.
Season one delivered 2.1 million viewers in its premiere. Madonna Benjamin, senior commissioning editor for documentaries and factual entertainment at Channel 4, said the show “struck a real chord with the audience by celebrating intelligence in all its forms and turning it into a joyful, shared experience. We’re delighted to be bringing it back with a bigger, bolder new series, helping even more people from across the country to unlock their hidden genius.”
Kelly Webb-Lamb, founder and CEO of Mothership, noted, “As a resolute non-genius, I am so looking forward to getting to watch a new tranche of incredible brains play even more brilliant mind-games in the second series of Secret Genius. It’s been a blast making this show with the Channel 4 gang, and we feel very lucky to be doing it again.”
Secret Genius is co-produced by Mothership and WPP Media Motion Entertainment.
