WATCH BELOW: First look at Beauty and the Geek 2021
Hosted by the stunning and self-confessed dork Sophie Monk, the series is said to have all the fun of the original series with a new layer of warmth to keep the audience coming back.
“A lot has changed since Beauty and the Geek was last on our screens,” Sophie said.
“Today, geeks run the world and beauties are far more than just a pretty face. I can’t wait for audiences to watch on as they embark on a journey of self-discovery and see if we’re able to answer the age-old question – can opposites attract?”
