In the opening episode, we meet the high-achieving Ross family from London – writer and mum Katie, financial advisor dad Jonathan and their two children, musical prodigy Amelia, 14, who writes classical concerto in her spare time, and rock collector Alexander, 12, who loves geology. Their opponents are the Latin-loving Griffiths family from Woking, including prison-educator and mum Anne, dad David, who is also in education, and Latin scholars Will, 16, and Ollie, 13.

Competitive youngsters Amelia and Ollie are hoping to lead their families to victory, but who will overcome brain freeze and inch closer to The Family Brain Games crown?
