A 12-year-old Indian-origin boy has been crowned as the UK’s ‘Child Genius’ in a popular television quiz competition, days after he became an overnight sensation after answering all questions correctly. Rahul Doshi won the Channel 4 show ‘Child Genius’ by beating his nine-year-old opponent – Ronan – 10-4 in the programme’s finale last night.
He had become an overnight sensation earlier this week after he answered all questions correctly. The school boy from north London clinched the title by answering a question on 19th Century artists William Holman Hunt and John Everett Millais.
