00:00Well, I can see how upsetting it is for you, and we're very grateful that you made your point.

00:03Absolutely.

00:04That is all for this week.

00:06I just want to say before we go that, very sadly, last week we lost a well-loved producer.

00:14Oh my gosh, I'm going to go as well.

00:15One of the questions I had longest serving producer is Ali Fuller.

00:18She'd worked in this program for something like 27 years,

00:20and she was responsible for recruiting audiences like you.

00:23And we reckon she spoke to something like well over,

00:26I think, 100,000 audience members in that time.

00:28It was a very short and sudden illness, and we were all shocked by her death,

00:32and we miss her very much.

00:33So I just want to say, send my love to Ali's family.

00:37And also, in terms of the program tonight,

00:39thank you all so much for coming and putting your points.

00:41I wish we could have gone on for longer.

00:43Thank you, of course, to the panel.

00:44And thank you to you at home for watching.

00:46From Question Time, bye-bye.
