1. No passes last week. One this. In fact, last week, iirc, one contender was giving ridiculous answers rather than passing.
2. How can you have more than two semi-finals?
3. What would be your specialist subject?

You can have as many semi-finals as there are contestants in the final.
My specialist subject would be "Naked group hugs and hamper distribution in the Betfair community, 2001 to present." |

It's the round before the final. You have two finalists in a soccer tournament so there are two semi-finals. There are five finalists in Mastermind so you have five semi-finals.

Most these days seem to be rubbish that no-one would be interested in. I watch on playback so I can fast forward through those. Not particularly interested in what they call each round, it's just a weekly quiz from which an overall winner eventually emerges. |

Last week, I think these re the facts
In the first round the girl got all her.s correct, then a bloke got a couple wrong and ended up with 3 more points than her. |

The questions are padded out so they take approximately the same time to read out. It's therefore probable that the bloke wasted less time answering so got asked a few extra in the time allowed.
