00:00 Okay then Dan, can I just ask about why you decided to do this particular piece of art for Sarah on her wedding day?
00:06 Well, I've always wanted to do a piece based on Sarah, over the last couple of years anyway.
00:13 But it just seemed like a no-brainer as a wedding gift, plus I didn't have any other ideas and it was the perfect way of immortalising us in Scrooge.
00:24 And how did you manage to keep it secret from Sarah that you were doing this?
00:27 Well, I don't do the pieces at home, I have a small workshop and she just assumed that I was on with other things.
00:39 Plus, when I heard the price of the stuff that we were going to hire, like the tall LED letters and the Mr and Mrs and stuff like that, I said 'Oh, I'm going to make them myself'.
00:50 So she assumed I was just on with that.
00:54 So Sarah, when this was unveiled on your wedding day, how did you feel and how did you react?
00:58 I just burst into tears. I was just so blown away by it. I didn't expect it whatsoever and I didn't even see it in the room because everything was just so busy that day and I was so preoccupied with everything else.
01:10 What do you make of it now? How impressed are you with the piece of art there?
01:13 Every time I see it I just want to cry. I feel so emotional about it. I'm really, really pleased to have it in the house.
