Kate eventually interrupted the doctor, saying: "Hilary I think your mic might have slightly dropped off. But we can still hear your words of wisdom! That’s what you’re talking about, isn’t it Hilary, the hope of this testing when you land which might give you the opportunity to reduce your quarantine." After his microphone was fixed, Dr Hilary apologised to Kate for the gaffe, saying: "I'm sorry about that. I had some trouble with my microphone there."
