Over 1 in 10 Brits Know More About the Lives of Celebrities than Their Family's

ESSEX, ENGLAND, JUL 10 – A survey of 2,000 British adults found 57% want to know more about family but 21% struggle to start conversations, with train journeys aiding meaningful talks, National Rail said.

  • National Rail launched a new version of '36 Questions to Connect' to help people learn more about their loved ones through meaningful conversations.
  • This initiative follows a survey of 2,000 adults revealing many have gaps in knowledge about family members and themselves, with 57% wanting to know more.
  • Father and son George and Larry Lamb tried out '36 Questions to Connect' during a train journey, appreciating the rare opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations and share previously unknown stories.
  • The survey revealed that only 29% of adults are aware of who their mother dated first, 19% have knowledge of their father’s early romantic experiences, and more than 10% tend to know celebrities’ lives better than those of their own family members.
  • Findings imply that using tools like '36 Questions' on train journeys could help bridge understanding gaps and reduce regrets about missed personal conversations.
