Speed-dating discussion

How it works: two rows of chairs face each other. Each pair takes a question card and talks for three minutes. When the bell rings, one row moves one seat. Keep notes on your note sheet.
Class rule: we talk about public figures, fictional characters and documented cases only. Nobody shares a personal story, a name or a screenshot about themselves or anyone they know.
