Richard Hammond will front new comedy panel show Brain Reaction, with some intellectual help from his brainy side-kick, comedian Ria Lina.

Each week, a team of comics and celebrities led by team captains Johnny Vegas and Victoria Coren Mitchell will battle it out trying to make sense of the world through brilliantly bizarre conundrums.

Banks & Wag (Go Jetters, X Factor) have scored title and related music for the series.

Brain Reaction is executive produced by Victoria Payne and Erika Dodd for Chimp Productions. The series will air on Comedy Central UK in 2022.
