Junior Mastermind

2004–2007 · 5 seasons

Quietly tense studio quizzing where bright children answer under a spotlight, easy to admire and gently nerve-wracking to watch.

Overview
Junior Mastermind is a spin-off of the British quiz show Mastermind, featuring children generally aged 10 and 11 as contestants. The basic format of Junior Mastermind is the same as that of regular adult Mastermind, though there are a few differences: ⁕Contestants' introductions give only their first names, and give home town instead of occupation. ⁕Series are shorter, consisting of a single round of heats, the winners of which progress directly to the final.
