00:00Oh don't, that just makes me cry straight away.
00:06Three, two, one.
00:10It's pressed.
00:11It's pressed.
00:12Say one name to you, just one name.
00:14That name is Pippa.
00:17Don't cry.
00:18Oh Pippa, you're actually there.
00:19She's here.
00:20Oh my gosh.
00:21I did a cycle here, just to be clear.
00:23Well, for anyone that doesn't know, Pippa, I met Pippa years ago
00:27when I was making a documentary about midwifery.
00:30And we became friends from that.
00:32But thereafter, she supported me through my very sad stillbirth
00:38that I had with my beautiful son, Theo.
00:42And she's basically been there for the whole thing.
00:45And then when I had Holly, that birth wasn't an easy one either.
00:50And she basically saved my life during the birth of my little girl Holly,
00:54who is now 12.
00:56So yeah, and she's a friend for life.
00:58And honestly, anytime I've got an emergency or anything that happens
01:01to one of the girls or me, Pippa is always the first person I call.
01:06She is like the light, the strength.
01:09She's a good laugh.
01:10Have you got anything to say to Amanda Pippa?
01:12Oh, I know you've got this, Amanda.
01:14You have.
01:15You are amazing.
01:16You'll just get your head down, do the challenge,
01:18and you know you're doing so much good for other people.
01:20And I know that's what drives you.
01:22So you've got so much resilience.
01:24You just get on and make this happen.
01:26And I've got every faith you will.
