96
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 5: You know, you've rarely come across people like him. And

97
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 5: when you talk about ticking all the boxes, he does

98
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 5: tick all the boxes as a person, as a colleague,

99
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:39,040
