[Hadrian (OP)]

Here are the questions that Bernard Pivot always asked his guests in the great French television series, Bouillon de Culture.

Intellectual exercise or Playboy Bunny questionnaire?

What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say.

Why do you ask – were you thinking of designed a torture tailor made for me?

I'd probably rather like to sneak in quietly, and hope he doesn't notice me – otherwise he might just bellow “oi, what are you doing here!”.
