We consider the semilinear wave equation with power nonlinearity in one space dimension. We consider an arbitrary blow-up solution $u(x,t)$, the graph $x\mapsto T(x)$ of its blow-up points and ${\cal S}\subset {\mathbb R}$ the set of all characteristic points. We show that ${\ca S}$ is locally finite.
