Dara Ó Briain hosts The Family Brain Games, the ultimate test of collective, cross-generational intelligence. Eight families compete in a specially designed ‘games lab’ where they compete in tests of their intelligence and teamwork in order to be crowned the winners.
Eight contestants play increasingly challenging general knowledge, visual and logic puzzles to be the last player standing and take on the tough multiple-choice Un Cwestiwn (Final Question). During each round, more players are eliminated but also some of the possible answers for the Final Question get removed too. The better the players perform, the easier the Final Question becomes.
