00:17And then I got a text from a friend.

00:25Fire Brigade?
00:29Yeah, hello, I'm in the fire in Greenfield Town.

00:34It's burning.
00:35Yes, I know it's burning, as long as you're okay.
00:43My window was alight, and it just raced towards me.
00:48They were telling us to stay inside,
00:50but the fire was getting closer.
00:53We just dashed it for the stairwell.
00:56It was just smoke, black.
00:58I didn't have any idea where they were.

01:30has to scrap one.

01:41that still have the combustible cladding.
01:43Feel free to ask me as many questions as you like,
01:47but use your time wisely.
01:49Right.
01:50There's 72 people died.
01:52We still don't know who's gonna be in prison.
01:55We just want justice.
01:57It's heartbreaking, unbelievable cruelty.
02:00Everyone is blaming each other.

02:03Dishonesty.
02:04Dishonesty.
