Rebecca Front, Simon Day and Jason Cook pick their nearest and dearest to answer questions

Miles Jupp tests Rebecca Front, Simon Day and Jason Cook on how well one of their loved ones knows them. From March 2012.

"The Thick Of It" star, Rebecca Front, Fast Show actor and comedian, Simon Day, and award-winning Geordie comic, Jason Cook nominate one of their intimate circle to answer questions about their relationship, to try and prove how well they know them.

If the panel can predict the responses their nominees gave, they get points.

Chaired by Miles Jupp.

Rebecca thinks she knows her father, Charles Front, a retired illustrator and calligrapher, pretty well. 

Simon examines his relationship with best friend, Conrad Butlin, a stylist from Notting Hill in London. 

And Jason plumps for his mother, Pat, a recruitment consultant from Hebburn in Newcastle - and, it turns out, something of a Loose Women fan...

Producer: Sam Michell.

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in March 2012.
