To withdraw your question please press star one and one again on your telephone keypad. For those on the webcast, you can also ask questions via the dedicated Q&A box. I will now hand over to Thomas Singlehurst to begin. Please go ahead.

Thank you, Melanie. Good morning and thank you for joining us for WPP's third quarter trading update. I'm Tom Singlehurst, WPP's Group Director of Investor Relations, and joining me today are Cindy Rose, our CEO, and Joanne Wilson, our CFO. I hope you've had the opportunity to read this morning's press release together with the accompanying presentation and disclosures. As always, I would ask you to read the cautionary statement which is on page two of the slide deck very carefully. Before Joanne takes you through the numbers in detail, I'll hand over to Cindy for some opening comments.

Brilliant.
