00:00It wasn't a huge part of our lives, but, yeah,
00:02when you experience something like this, you realise what a...
00:07..a huge monster it can be, I guess.
00:11I was getting direct messages from people that I've never met.
00:16They don't know me, they don't know us, they don't know Nicky,
00:20they know nothing about us.
00:22Just messages like,
00:23''You bastard,'' ''We know what you did,''
00:26you know, ''You can't hide, Paul,'' that kind of stuff.
00:29There was some that I felt like replying to,
00:31but then, if you reply to that,
00:34they'll just screenshot your reply,
00:36that'll end up on social media,
00:38and so you're literally silenced,
00:42and you can't do anything about it.
