| 0:00.0 | This is LBC from Global, leading Britain's conversation with James O'Brien. |
| 0:14.7 | It's three minutes after ten, and you are listening to James O'Brien on LBC. A very good morning. Indeed, too. |
| 0:20.3 | I have got some great news for you later in the programme. I'll probably forget, you know me. The more I big up the looming announcements and the looming results, then the more likely I am to completely forget it. But this is actually quite exciting, especially for me, and it's linked to mystery hour. And most of you have probably worked out already what it is |
