Dick and Dom look at the amazing people who had a genius idea which has helped shaped the world we live in. From Archimedes to Faraday, Dick and Dom explore the work of the most important inventors and scientists in history and are inspired to come up with their own genius idea at the end of each show, such as attempting to defy the laws of gravity by riding The Wall of Death, to recording their own version of the Doctor Who theme tune with a twist, to even attempting a journey into space involving a Diddy Dom doll, a tracking device and a helium balloon the size of a house.
