WHAT ALEXANDER-ARNOLD AND HENRY SAID
Per Nicola Hickling, an investigative and forensic lipreader, who was speaking to OLBG, the pair's conversation went as follows:
JH: “You’ve been quiet. How did you get on?”
TAA: *nods* and says: “Being sensible.”
JH: Raises his hand slightly and says: “I want you to do the right thing”
TAA: “Yeah, yeah.”
JH: “Best way and don't panic.”
TAA: “Should I decide?”
JH: He nods very slowly and says: “Absolutely.” and then turns to say: “Let them know.”
TAA: Nods in agreement.
