How Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee evolved from lockdown balm to Australian TV show

Guy Montgomery was feeling lonely and isolated during a COVID lockdown when he came up with the idea to host a spelling bee. So much so that his little lockdown idea is now an Australian TV series, Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee, set to premiere on ABC TV next week, with a second Kiwi season expected later this year. The winner of each episode of Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee returns to complete in the next. Yet, the comedian praises the ABC for its willingness to platform emerging comedians on Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee. Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee is on ABC TV and ABC iview from Wednesday August 14.
