00:07 says he's going to be the next Lord Chief Justice.

00:10 Well, I hope so.

00:11 He deserves it.

00:13 And it'll be easier then, you know, for him, the two of you.

00:16 Of course.

00:17 Once he's made it, things will--

00:19 I'm sure they'll--

00:21 Of course they will.

00:52 His mother died three years ago.

00:54 His father had a stroke at Christmas,
