The questions were set by the Chester Road Tavern and the Sutton Club. These two teams were asked to provide two question masters each.

The scores in the first and fourth matches in the above table both added up to 230. This is easily the highest aggregate score in the Cup, at least since the 2016–17 season.

The Poachers' score of 134 was the second highest score in the Cup since the 2016–17 season. (The Queens scored 135 in Round 1, in 2019–20).

Watch this space for updates as to where the Poachers' score, and the aggregate scores referred to above, rank overall!

And any mathematicians (or computer scientists) reading this may have noticed that the score in the match between the Queens and the the Dolphin Hammers was 6–5 in binary.

Semi–Final Draw
