00:00It's been a taboo subject for so long, people haven't talked about it.
00:04I remember something that had been lurking in the back of my brain for a very long time,
00:08that when I was a teenager, I was attacked on a train.
00:13And I'd sort of forgotten about it, but I remember at the time being so angry.
00:18It was anger, and I thought, why is this?
00:22Well, it's a sort of boy.
00:23I thought it was an old man, it was probably not a great deal older than me.
00:27And attacked in what way?
00:31On a train.
00:32You were on a train?
00:33On a train.
00:34And someone you didn't know?
00:35Somebody I didn't know.
00:36I was reading my book, and this boy, man, attacked me.
00:43And I did fight back.
00:47And I got off.
00:48I remember getting off the train, and my mother looking at me and saying,
00:53you know, why is your hair standing on end?
00:55And why is the button, you know, admitting from your coat?
01:00Of course, so it was physical.
01:02I was being attacked.
01:03But I remember anger, and I was so furious about it.
01:09And it sort of lurked for many years.
01:12And I think, you know, when all the subject about domestic abuse came up,
01:16and suddenly you hear a story like John and Amy's,
01:20it all, you know, it's something that I feel very strongly about.
01:24But I think there's a story like this, and I think there's something that I've gotten.
01:27I think there's a story like that.
01:29I've been messing around.
01:29But I've been looking for a story like that.
01:32With this, you know, there's a story like that.
01:33And I've been going for a story like that.
01:35And I've been working for a story like that.
