00:00 Immensely proud as always of Tony, you know, he never ceases to amaze us. He's zest for life and
00:07 yeah, just blown away. I mean, just such a legacy for him to find out he's the youngest
00:16 ever to receive that award. You were really surprised as well, wasn't you?
00:22 And, you know, just shows what, you know, he might only be nine years old and he might have
00:28 had the worst start in life, but just shows what absolutely is possible. And it's just the kindness
00:36 of the nation behind Tony all the way through. They're always, you know, always singing your
00:43 praises and helping you along the way with whatever you decide to do, don't they, Tony?
00:48 Yeah. I feel happy, excited and really, and, mum, and really, and really, how would you describe?
01:07 Yeah, yeah, I'm proud. There you go.
