| 0:31.3 | No, I wouldn't do something like that that's not the kind of person I am and |
| 0:38.2 | ÂŁ1 a week blow me I didn't realize it was quite that bad I thought it was something of a one-off at |
| 0:44.5 | least what's been talked about in the press can we just like get it out of the way |
| 0:48.6 | and not talk about it very much because I find the whole thing very distasteful and unpleasant and most of all I just find it very sad |
