| 0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Andy Murray and you're listening to the tennis podcast. |
| 0:13.5 | Hello and welcome to the final Aagon Championships tennis podcast of this year's tournament |
| 0:18.4 | at the Queen's World. Andy Murray caps a brilliant week by winning his record-breaking |
| 0:23.3 | fifth at Queen's singles title. Many great players have played here over the years and one |
| 0:28.7 | four times so you know to be the first to five is that means a lot. On tonight's podcast you'll |
| 0:34.4 | hear from British number one Andy Murray number one coach Ivan Lendel and number one in the |
| 0:39.7 | charts Rick Astley. A bit of a worry at the very beginning to be honest but he doesn't like to do it |
| 0:45.6 | easy. I'm Catherine Midtichett and for the final time this week I'm joined by Gigi Samman. I'm |

| 1:25.7 | suddenly the rain went away we had put on a load of matches that night when Cheezo and I bed in a |
| 1:31.2 | one on court nine against pair I think eight forty seven or something like that so some of the |
| 1:35.8 | players weren't perhaps as happy as they might have been about playing at that time but we got |
| 1:38.9 | through a lot of matches and then somehow on Thursday and Friday when the weather forecast looked |
| 1:42.8 | like a disaster the Queen's Cup was an island of calm I mean it's just sort of sea of rain and |
