Love Island's Joey Essex looks to be the smartest in the villa after his fellow contestants debated whether the earth is flat.
Joey, 33, has built a reputation on not being intelligent, leaving school with just a U in Drama, a C in Art and a D in Wood Tech at GCSE and even had his own TV show called Re-Educating Joey Essex.
He has previously admitted that he doesn't know how to tell the time or even blow his own nose.
However it seems Joey might have the highest IQ of all the contestants in the villa after he entered the reality show as a bombshell last week.
In one group conversation, it was the former TOWIE star who stood firm in the fact the Earth was flat after others didn't seem so sure.

As Munveer asked: 'Are you a flat earth believer?' Joey replied: 'No the world if definitely round man.'
While Nicole agreed with Joey, Mimii wasn't so sure as she argued: 'The pictures you see of space are not real photos'.
Fans even remarked: 'Do I dare say that Joey Essex has got smarter'; 'Is it me or is Joey Essex less dumb now??'
Meanwhile in an earlier episode the groups were left debating whether Wales was in the north or south of the UK.
After learning Nicole was from South Wales, Ayo was from East London and Sean was from Hertfordshire, Stockport born Jess surmised: 'So we are like northern, and you are like southern aren't you?'.
As the others agreed, Nicole replied: 'I really don't know,' as Jess confirmed: 'No I think Wales is in the north.'
As Nicole hit back: 'No,' she then questioned herself as she added: 'Oh I don't know'.
As well as being unable to tell the time, in the past Joey also mistakenly thought that horse powered cars were literally powered by tiny horses in the engine.

When asked how many sides a square had while on Celebrity Juice in 2017, he confidently declared the answer to be 'six', while he also thought Russia bordered Wales, after originally giving a first answer of London.
Asked what country Danish bacon came from, he replied: 'Germany' and exclaimed: 'Why would I know that? I thought Danish was a type of meat?' after Keith Lemon confirmed the answer was Denmark.
And Joey still made sure to make his own silly comments after he left fans in stitches on Monday and claimed not being smart was a 'gift'.
Asking Joey about whether he was bothered by his reputation as not smart, Samantha asked: 'Did it bother you when you first came on the TV scene and they took the p*** out of you for being ditzy?'
But Joey responded by saying he knew he wasn't intelligent and that he had never cared, admitting since he was a kid he hadn't wanted to be clever.
He said: 'Yeah but you gotta think, it was my persona but it was also true. I looked at it like a gift.
'It's who I am and it's so good that I had that mentality and I knew myself. As a kid I knew I wasn't clever. I didn't think I want to be clever like everyone else - it didn't affect me.
'I'm going to try my best, I'm going to be the best I can be. And that's exactly what I did. And that's why when I talk to kids I always say all you can do is try your best.'
