"Prove It!" is an educational children's TV series presented by Joe Challands and Jamie Rickers. It is an entertainment programme focusing on the illustration of scientific facts, while raising the question (only sometimes answered in the affirmative) of whether a certain claim can be empirically verified. The programme can usually be seen on the CITV Channel. Regular segments include the "60 Second Prove It!", where a presenter attempts to perform a task in 60 seconds to prove it is possible, "Fred's Shed" where Fred Talbot shows how to use simple home items to perform various fun and interesting experiments and "U Prove It", where viewers demonstrate their unusual skills.

"Prove It!" is an original format by GeronimoTV and is co-produced with SMG Productions.
