British Interview Faux Pas

Google brought me to this British site - Onrec.com and their article Interview Faux Pas. Here are my 2 favorites from the somewhat strange list:

8. Prepare your questions. At the end of her questions, an interviewer posed the question; “okay, you can ask me one question and one question only” to the interviewee. After much procrastination, the young lady took a deep breath, calmed her nerves and asked “Are you going anywhere nice on your holidays this year?”
