A Question of Genius - Series Start

This afternoon at 4:30 pm on BBC 2 sees the premiere of the superb new quiz show "A Question of Genius" presented by Kirsty Wark! OK, so I may be a bit biased as I have appeared in this programme, but even so I do truly believe that it is a great quiz show and deserves to be watched by millions! I don't appear in it until Week 4 (w/c 6th April), but I do urge you to watch before then.
