It's obviously, you know, you watch The Lion King and stuff and it's a circle of life and it's all a part of living.

So I think you're just a little bit more...

accepting of it, I think, you know, I think when you're in your... I suppose that is the case for maybe, say, a grandparent, but when it's your brother, you know, and they're like, what, 10, 12 years older than you, it kind of must be kind of like a bit of a world spinner.

Yeah, no, well, it definitely was, you know, it's...

you know, we don't talk about it too much anymore, but it's, um, it will have had a huge impact on my brother, James.

Obviously they were a year apart.

They were best friends.

You know, they grew up together, you know, in the same house all the time, lived together in London.

Um, so that, you know, I can imagine, I can only imagine it must've been harder for James than it was for me, obviously difficult for, for everyone in the family, but for him in particular, um,

But I'm fortunate to come from a family where people have done difficult things around me all of the time.

Like my mom raising a large family and my father always working, always grinding.

He was a mechanic and then became a racing driver himself and then built businesses.

I see my dad as a real, a huge inspiration of mine.

I still bounce stuff off.

He's 83, as I say.

He's absolutely sharp.

If I have business ideas, I'll call him first and bounce them off him.

He tries not to be too pessimistic in his old age, but he is.

What's your answer to the question?

I mean, if I'm honest, I didn't really have that growing up.
