| 0:04.0 | He's a lawyer from Great Britain, from the outfit Reprieve, |

| 0:17.2 | Welcome back to the show for live. How are you doing sir? |
| 0:18.9 | Well, look, let me tell you first. When you say I represent the wretched of refuse, I don't represent you, |
| 0:26.1 | so it can't be that rich. Also, I've moved on from Reprieve, actually. I've founded founded Receive many years ago, but all founders should |
