STEP 1 Question time: a celebrity's routine
Read the text about the actor Joseph Quinn and complete the questions as in the example.

Joseph Quinn's routine
Stranger Things revelation, Joseph Quinn, is a rather reserved guy who lives a life like you and me. Though relatively new to social media, he already has a lot of followers worldwide. But what about his typical day on set?
Well, to look younger (the character he plays, Eddie Munsen, is 19 while he is 29), he never eats carbohydrates but usually drinks a lot of black coffee. That means he can't eat pizza, one of his favourite dishes, but lots of meat, fish and vegetables for lunch and dinner.
He is very close to the rest of the actors and actresses of the show as they spend a lot of time together on set. When he isn't on set, he trains for hours with his dialect coach because Joseph is from south London, but he needs to sound American like the character he plays. In his free time he often skateboards and plays the guitar.

Example: What does he do to look younger?
1 Which favourite dish ________?
2 What ________ for lunch and dinner?
3 Who ________ on set?
4 Why ________ for hours with a dialect coach?
5 What ________ in his free time?
