Each Friday the weekly finals will see one person advance to the semi-finals and eventually compete against other winners at the end of the season for the prestigious title of Australia's Mastermind.
Contenders test their knowledge of speciality topics, including Veronica Mars, Outkast, the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and 18th Dynasty Egypt.
