Time to get closer than ever (but only to those in your household) (Picture: Ella Byworth for Metro.co.uk)

It was announced this week that the UK is to effectively go into a ‘lockdown’ state, where people are not allowed to leave their homes except for essentials.

What this means is that – unless you’re a key worker – you’re going to be spending a lot more time in the house and with the people you live with, whether that’s your partner, family, or housemates.

It’s a scary time, and people with skills that might help us distract ourselves and stay busy have been lending their help in the form of online classes and tutorials.

To try and put a positive spin on things, it can also be a time where we get to know each other better, and since we can’t get together with others physically, why not get together with those in our households on a more emotional level?

Just think how strong your relationship might be after this? (Picture: Ella Byworth for Metro.co.uk)

To try and spark new conversations and learn more about each other, we’ve compiled 101 questions you can ask each other while you’re stuck indoors.

There are some questions in here more suited to partners or friends, but if you’re asking family members just skip the more risque questions.
