06:08And I've got two more.
06:11The next one is the judges' choice for amateur gardening,
06:15and it was Hannah for the Sweet Peas.
06:20Thank you.
06:27Well done, well done, Sweet Peas.
06:35And the last one is, it's a new cup,
06:38so Mr. Ken Jones always used to win on the amateur gardening bench at most points.
06:46He practically took the table every year.
06:49He passed away several years ago,
06:51but the family really wanted to remember him,
06:55the family remembered the show,
06:57so they importantly come and introduce that,
07:00and it's actually going to be the best daily of the show,
07:04and there's going to be a new class next year called the best daily.
07:08But what we did this year is we asked the judges to look at the whole bench
07:12and look for the best daily on the bench,
07:15and it is the national, it's in one of the bars of the garden house,
07:20and that goes to the team, the classical team, I think, Hannah.
07:36Theresa, do you want to come and have a picture with the cup, please?
07:40This is Theresa, Ken's daughter.
07:45Come on.
07:49Is your daughter one of them?
