THRILLS! Suspense! Sesquipedalian!
These are just some of the words that could be spelled correctly or absolutely fumbled when Guy Montgomery’s Guy Mont Spelling Bee returns for season two on Wednesday, June 4 at 8.35pm on ABC TV.
All episodes will also be available to stream on ABC iview.
Host Guy Montgomery and his loyal assistant Aaron Chen return to test whether Australia’s best and brightest comedians are actually all that bright when it comes to spelling.
Across the extended 10-episode season, get ready for more hilarious misspellings, witty banter and unforgettable moments as four comedians take to the podiums every week.
Vying for the most prestigious prize on TV – a one-way ticket to defend their title on the next episode – is an all-star lineup including Hannah Gadsby, Hamish Blake, Julia Morris, Rove McManus, Denise Scott, Becky Lucas, Kirsty Webeck, Josh Thomas, Dave Hughes, Dilruk Jayasinha, Susie Youssef, Lizzy Hoo and more.
Each episode features five high stakes spelling rounds, each more outlandish and frustrating than the last.
Brand new spelling rounds this season include “The Love Spell” where comedians must date potential matches in the hopes of gaining a “partner” to help them spell.
In “Speance”, a spelling-séance, the comedians connect with a spirit to help them spell out their next words. And in “Show and Spell” the comedians have been asked for the first time to bring in something from home that they can spell – but all is not as it seems.
Relive all the hilarious fun and games on ABC iview now.
