In the video, go to minute 1.12...and see how Hugh says:
INFORMAL:I'm starting to feel a bit uncomfortable about us working in such close proximity every day and me knowing so little about you..... It seems elitist and wrong...

He may have said as well(FORMAL): Our working in such close proximity every day and my knowing so little about you...

See you!!!
