I had my Southampton interview for nursing a little while ago (and had my offer since!). My interviewer was super lovely and patient. The process was very much a conversation, and they asked questions about why I thought I'd make a good nurse and how I think I'd react in certain situations. A good chunk was us talking about how I keep a good work/personal life balance. It was probably my favourite interview experience out of the 5 I did - very relaxed and friendly - even thought it was the first and I was nervous.

I'm sure you'll do great! Good luck.

I'm a bit torn between KCL and Southampton, so still considering. I think I'm currently leaning toward Southampton because I was really impressed by their student services/support/communication and I don't really want added financial stress which will come with living in London! I've got until June to reply to offers so I'm letting myself take time to decide.
