00:00I would probably like to see a butterfly on my back note.
00:04I think it'd be really beautiful to see.
00:06I think I'd like to see an edge oak.
00:08Yeah.
00:08Just like, see it all the time.
00:10I could see that happen.
00:11Oh, a shark.
00:11A shark's a good one.
00:12I like the shark one.
00:13It's not really cool on my 20-pound note.
00:15The water's getting warmer and that.
00:16Oh, I could see that happen.
00:18Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:18That's fair.
00:19I quite like the dolphin.
00:21Yeah, I like the dolphin as well.
00:22I don't know if it's because it's the first one you said,
00:24so I was really tuned into it.
00:26But I do feel a bit of a connection to the dolphins.
00:28I always wanted to swim with them.
00:30Love the water.
00:31Yeah, rise of holiday.
00:33Yeah, a dolphin.
00:34Yeah.
00:35And seals.
00:37I like that one.
00:38They're quite cute.
00:39Seen a lot in the wild.
00:41Quite fun.
00:42Yeah.
00:43And then a dragonfly and a butterfly.
00:45The barn owl, I like that one.
00:47Because when I did that check, you know,
00:49and it says, what's your spirit animal?
00:50That was one of the ones that came up.
00:53And I'm always up at night as well.
00:55So, you know, yeah, I consider myself clever.
00:58I don't want to beat my own hoon there.
01:01Hedgehog would be pretty cool.
01:02Yeah, hedgehog or the butterfly.
01:04I'd like to see the butterfly on our money.
01:07That would be really cute.
01:09I think the eagle or the dragonfly would be pretty cool.
01:13I like butterflies.
01:14Butterflies are lovely.
01:16Pretty cute.
01:17Bumblebee especially.
01:18Maybe.
01:19That would be absolutely beautiful.
01:20If I had to pick it, I'd be a kingfisher because they're a beautiful bill.
01:24Colourful.
01:26But leave Churchill where he is.
01:28He's been there for a long time.
01:29What?
