Default Is this normal clutch noise?

97,000 miles on my XF, and the prior service records show that it had transmission work done. I notice that between fully engaged, and fully depressed, my clutch makes a chatter sound. Only really notice it during neutral going into gear.

Little video I shot, you can hear it inbetween clutch presses.

Normal, or a sign of bad things to come?

Edit: I'll add that the transmission is silent when the clutch is either engaged or disengaged. Only makes that "rattling" sound in the friction zone. Seems like some internet consensus is that dual mass flywheels make this noise...
