This is an IHeart podcast.

You have no idea how many young people I've now got credibility with because of your TV show. Are you kidding? It's true. Like the kids think I'm really cool now. They do. What a ridiculous thing for you to say to me? I can't believe you did it, to be honest. I can't believe I did it either. No, of course I can. Don't be ridiculous. But it's also me just going, oh go on, let me be in another scene. Let me be in another scene. And I'm like, okay, I suppose you can be in one with Alice. On Rose's TV show, if somebody doesn't show up for work, Alice Sneddon, who co-writes the show with Rose, She just is basically like this sort of zealic figure

who they can slot into any scene

and they slotted her into a scene with me in the next season

and it was complete heaven.

It's my side of you to see it.

Yeah, it's going to be amazing, can't wait.

Hello, I'm Minnie Driver

and welcome to Mini Questions.

I've always loved Proust's questionnaire.

It was originally an 18th century parlor game meant to reveal an individual's true nature.

But with so many questions, there wasn't really an opportunity to expand on anything.

So I took the format of Proust's questionnaire and adapted what I think are seven of the most important questions

you could ever ask someone. They are, when and where were you happiest? What is the quality

you like least about yourself? What relationship, real or fictionalised, defines love for you?

What question would you most like answered? What person, place or experience

has shaped you the most? What would be your last meal? And can you tell me something in your life

that has grown out of a personal disaster? The more people we ask, the more we begin to see what makes us similar and what makes

us individual.

I've gathered a group of really remarkable people who I am honoured and humbled to have

had a chance to engage with.

My guest today on mini questions is actor and writer Rose Matafeyer.
