01:03Thank you very much.
01:04You really are. I saw you in the Soccer Channing Show ballet dancing around and you were brilliant.
01:08I looked really silly.
01:09You really did look silly. Now, but here you're playing the game brilliantly. Let's meet our current players, Nelsie and Raimi. Come in.
01:16Hello.
