Good question, Ahmed - Sam answered this one from our Millbank studio in the heart of Westminster.
He says politicians (or rather, their teams) always "try it on".
But do they ever get advance sight of questions?
Have a watch of the answer...
Thank you for the question, Anonymous - Yousra is currently reporting on location so we asked her to send a video message with her answer.
In it, she speaks of her family's struggles and their strong desire to return to their homeland - but when do they think that will be possible?
Thank you for the question, Allan.
As it happens, there's no God-given reason interest rates couldn't change by different increments.
Back before the Bank was given operational independence to change rates, it frequently changed them to what we would today see as non-standard levels.
So, for instance, the last level they were set at in late 1996 was 5.94.
It just so happens that these days most central banks around the world tend to move in 0.25 percentage point increments (or, sometimes by 0.5, 0.75 or greater if they are in a hurry to change borrowing costs).
But it's a convention, no more.
Fun trivia fact: the only Monetary Policy Committee member to vote to change rates by anything other than 0.25 points was Willem Buiter, one of the original members. He once voted for a 0.4 percentage point increase. Needless to say, he was outvoted by the rest of the committee

Our coverage of the local elections included analysis from deputy political editor Sam Coates in which he wrote that Reform UK had now proven itself as a "protest party for Labour voters as well as Tories".
However, Sam also stated that the results "proved they continue to evolve into a mature and potentially lethal political force".
"They achieved vote shares of 40% or more, twice their share at the general election. They even won a seat from the Liberal Democrats," Sam wrote.
"Now this suggests that Reform UK has the capacity to mete out the same damage to Labour and puts the two traditional parties on notice that they face a threat."
