00:00I'm so excited. I've actually never been to Wimbledon before, so we feel really lucky that my mum got in the draw and we got some tickets, so yeah, really excited. We love the tennis, been looking and watching on the TV ever since I was little, so it's nice to finally come and watch it in person too.
00:14It's amazing. My girls play tennis, we all play, so I think it's great for the sport, it's great for the country, so really looking forward to some of the players.
00:23The sun's out, first day of the championships, we've got 14 days of great tennis to come. It's going to be wonderful.
00:28Yeah, I've got lots of water, maybe a few little drinks later on in the day, we'll see, but yeah, I'm going to find as much shade as I can.
00:38I think it's a whole new breed coming through, so I think that's the exciting bit about Wimbledon today.
00:43It's a long time coming, we've had ones, lots of ones, you know, Murray, Henman, etc., but this is really exciting and let's see where Draper can take us.
