Was in the UK recently visiting family, and my 17yo niece recounted the tale of her passport interview (why they require them for people born in the country, who knows).

Standard questions seem to be along the lines of "how to you get to work/school?" and "where is your nearest shop?". Being a typical 17yo, my niece's answers would have been "I get in the back of the car, play with my iPhone for a while and I'm there, bye Mum". Of course that's how she would have got to the interview too. All seems a bit silly.

Does anyone know if interviews are required for renewing an expired passport?

Fraud prevention. I'm lucky I didn't have to go to an interview for my national insurance number... But apparently the interviews are fairly similar.
