Situation Shortly, your best friend is going to get married. Together with one of the other guests, you decide to perform an ‘act’ at the wedding. Because the bride / groom is a great fan of…….(you may choose which American/English celeb is suitable for this purpose), you are going to perform a ‘fake interview’.

I collect exotic snakes – they are simply adorable. My partner seems to hate them, but I haven’t got a clue why. That’s none of your business – wanting to know how much money I make….
