Congrats Luke !

Just a form/media comment : I would personally greatly prefer a text Q&A page rather than a video, for many reasons (my understanding of written English is higher than of spoken English, text is easier to re-read or read at your own speed, much less intrusive media that I can for example read during small breaks at work while I can't for video, poor Internet bandwidth at home making downloading video always painful to me, ...).

Better yet, video with transcripts.

Ditto. (Native English speaker, but hearing-impaired.)

Agreed, text would be quite useful.

I second this.
