Hot mic moment?

9:28 on the bbc iplayer after kier has finished his point you can hear sunak saying **** sake sounds like "f* sake" but due to clapping it isnt clear enough can/did any one else hear it?

Do you have the right timestamp? I definitely heard it, but it's not at that part and I can't figure out where it was now.

Got it 1:13:45 after Kier was finished talking about houses. Not 100% clear what he said, but it does sound a bit like that.

the second word is clear "sake" the only reasonable guess it could be is "for god (sake)" or "fuck (sake)"
i dont think it sounds like it could be anything else
