| 0:00.0 | This is LBC from Global, leading Britain's conversation with James O'Brien. |
| 0:09.1 | Three minutes after ten is the time you're listening to James O'Brien on LBC. |
| 0:13.2 | What a lot we have to get through today. |
| 0:15.1 | What do you think has prompted the Ulster Unionist firebrand, David Trimble, |
