Geek Island is the new reality TV show where smart is the new sexy

Imagine a TV show with the hot sauce of Love Island but packing the intellectual rigour of University Challenge.

Geek Island is sizzling (but brainy) mini-series from UKTV Play which follows the amorous and academic adventures of eight hot, young eggheads. 

This is the reality TV parody show where ‘smart is the new sexy’ poking fun at the well-worn genre.

The contestants include Miss England Stephanie Hill (a first-class Radiotherapy & Oncology graduate), Georgie Clarke from TV’s Survival of the Fittest (BA, MA) and University Challenge prodigy Bobby Seagull (currently completing a Mathematics PHD at Cambridge).

Here’s a preview of episode 1.

According to the press release – Contestants have been chosen for their intelligence ensuring that an air of smouldering smartness permeates the mansion while UKTV Play’s cameras capture all the ‘Mensa-magic’ that ensues.

Highlights include steamy debates on quantum mechanics, macro evolution and modern geopolitics, in what has been billed as the sexiest and smartest reality mini-series of 2018.
