-In previous Codi Hwyl series, John

-Pierce Jones and Dilwyn Morgan...

-..sailed the coastlines of Celtic

-countries, starting with Wales.

-They then went to Ireland. Twice.

-They then went to Ireland. Twice.

-

-Welcome to the Wild Atlantic Way.

-In the last series,

-Mystique took them to Brittany.

-My knee will be raw

-from kneeling on this soil.

-This time,

-they're heading for Scotland.

-# And I'll be in Scotland afore ye #

-But this journey won't be

-without its problems.

-Halfway through the first programme

-and we're not even on the water!

-But in the spirit of Codi Hwyl,

-they're determined...

-..to reach the magical

-Hebrides islands, no matter what.

-The journey starts in Bangor,

-Northern Ireland.

-John is there already and Dilwyn

-is on his way over from Holyhead.

-He's just had some bad news.

-I'm on the ferry on my way to

-catch up with John and Mystique...

-..in Bangor, Northern Ireland.

-They've had some problems

-on the crossing over.

-The propeller shaft has overheated.

-One of the bearings

-has more or less seized up.

-Usually, it's quite

-a serious problem...

-..but John assures me

-he's sorted it.

-He's working hard with

-some locals to fix the boat...

-..and it'll be ready to go

-tomorrow morning.

-Time will tell, Dilwyn.

-Things are not going well.

-I had decided to sail her on my own

-for the first leg...

-..so that we could set off

-from Bangor, Northern Ireland.

-I sailed from the Isle of Man with

-my friend. I'm so glad he was there!

-The engine broke, we heard

-the sound of something seizing...

-..and there was a burning smell.

-Luckily, the wind picked up

-at that moment.

-We put up the sails

-and we made it into the marina.

-We were towed in.

-We called an engineer who said the

-boat had to come out of the water.

-He thought a seal had broken and

-he could see some water coming in.

-He said we were very lucky

-that we didn't all sink.

-I'm a little bit concerned.

-Mystique is in Bangor with John.

-It's John's responsibility

-to fix whatever has gone wrong.

-I've phoned him and he was vague.

-I've just texted to ask how things

-are going and he's answered me.

-"Just eaten the best steak

-I've had in months."

-No mention of the boat.

-After the main course,

-it's pudding for John.

-I've decided I'm not going to worry.

-Worrying isn't going to make

-the boat ready any sooner.

-So I'm going to enjoy myself

-while I wait for Number One.

-I'll have to do plenty of

-running around once he's here...

-..as he orders me about.

-Would you like some?

-Don't, then.

-Dilwyn has arrived in Bangor,

-County Down.

-He's looking for John now.

-Well?

-Well?

-

-Well, what?

-How's it going?

-It's been terrible, Dilwyn.

-The boat's still on the sling

-over there.

-I wondered how you were coping.

-It's a good experience for you

-to sort out these problems.

-A good experience?! What?

-Of course it's not

-a good experience!

-I can think of many better ones.

-And my knee is much worse this year.

-You'll have to do a lot for me.

-Oh!

-Welcome to Bangor and Codi Hwyl.

-Where is she?

-That way.

-Off they go to the marina for Dilwyn

-to see the damage first hand.

-Cutless bearing.

-It's just a name to me.

-Did it overheat?

-No. It came off somehow

-and blocked the end of the shaft.

-Can you see?

-The end of this shaft.

-The end of this shaft.

-

-This has overheated inside.

-It stopped anything that would

-cool down the shaft...

-..like grease or water,

-from getting in.

-It had pushed it to the end.

-That was lucky really

-because it sealed the hole.

-Or the water would have come in.

-So what's he going to do?

-He's going to try and pull this.

-He'll put a new pipe in there

-and a new Cutless bearing.

-Is the prop shaft OK?

-Is the prop shaft OK?

-

-Yes. Nothing wrong there.

-It could be much worse.

-Could it? How?

-You could have ripped this off

-completely.

-Or a piece of it. You couldn't

-have done anything then.

-Nothing.

-The water would have come in.

-Yes. He said we were lucky.

-We're halfway through

-the first programme...

-..and we're not even

-on the water yet!

-Things aren't looking good

-in my opinion.

-Is there any chance our two sailors

-can leave for Scotland tomorrow?

-I'll have the small breakfast,

-please.

-The wee dog.

-And I'll have the buttermilk

-pancake stack with sausage...

-..and an extra side

-of white pudding please.

-I'm very partial to white pudding.

-We don't get it at home.

-Pancakes for breakfast.

-Have you noticed anything different

-about me?

-Different?

-You've lost a tooth!

-What happened?

-It was a cap.

-I'd had it for years,

-since a series called Hawkmoor.

-I was headbutted in a fight.

-There was blood everywhere.

-I was also supposed to give him

-a slap and I gave him a good one.

-But I lost the top and I had a cap.

-The bottom had started to wobble

-so they took it out...

-..and I can't have another one

-until this area is hard enough.

-So my speech has been affected

-a little bit.

-He's laughing at me!

-He's laughing at me!

-

-Thooth!

-Iechyd da!

-Indeed.

-Hopefully we'll go somewhere today.

-This is depressing.

-Yes, it is.

-After breakfast, Dilwyn pops down to

-the harbour to find out what's what.

-Well, this is where

-Mystique was last night.

-She's gone. The boatyard guys need

-to use this hoist for other boats.

-They've had to move Mystique.

-Instead of going closer to the

-water, she's on a stand over here.

-We're waiting for the engineer.

-How are you this morning?

-How are you this morning?

-

-A bit better than yesterday.

-You will be in the water today.

-You heard it here first, folks.

-Is that looking good?

-That's the bit.

-That's the bit.

-

-That's the bit.

-There's more bits on their way.

-Everything will be together.

-So it's looking good.

-I've just had a quick word

-with Richard.

-He's promised me

-we'll be in the water.

-It looks as though she's been saved.

-We'll see. I'll go break the news

-to John. I don't know where he is.

-The weather's lovely.

-I'm just having a coffee with an

-extra shot in it for a bit of oomph.

-To give me some energy.

-He's worried about the boat.

-I think his pint is half empty.

-Mine is half full.

-The second necessary part

-has arrived.

-It's looking hopeful.

-Good news, good news, good news.

-Good news, good news, good news.

-

-What?

-The part has arrived,

-I've spoken to Richard.

-Two hours from now,

-we'll be ready to go.

-Things aren't as bad as we thought.

-Things aren't as bad as we thought.

-

-I didn't think they were.

-Everything's fine.

-I don't know why everyone panics.

-I was here on my own

-and I didn't panic.

-It'll be fine. I'll get my stuff.

-Mystique goes back into the water

-at last.

-We've been waiting for this moment.

-It's been a long five days.

-It doesn't bode well.

-She's leaking.

-She's leaking.

-

-No!

-Oh, heavens above. A leak.

-Huw Puw and his mate are very flat.

-We've just dipped Mystique in the

-water to check everything was OK.

-It wasn't.

-Water is coming in through the back.

-He's going to try and tighten things

-again and dip her once again.

-All this is eating into our time.

-We need to leave.

-Everyone just wants to get started.

-But it's a matter of safety.

-I looked over at John earlier.

-He looked as though

-he was saying a little prayer.

-Up again. Still leaking?

-Is it still coming?

-From where?

-You know where the stern tube

-goes out? There.

-So it's leaking in there.

-If this doesn't work now, that's it.

-She has to come back out.

-What are we going to do?

-What are we going to do?

-

-I don't know, John.

-What can we do?

-Someone somewhere

-will have to make a decision.

-Won't they?

-The moment of truth.

-Back she goes into the water.

-He's going to make a decision...

-..whether Mystique

-is fit to be at sea.

-Things don't look very promising

-at the moment.

-He's making his decision now.

-No?

-No?

-

-No.

-It's looking rather doubtful

-for Mystique.

-There may be significant damage

-somewhere that's out of reach.

-She has to come out again and we'll

-have to have a survey done tomorrow.

-We'll see what we can do tomorrow.

-I'm really sorry

-but we still can't raise the sails.

-Stay with us. We'll get there.

-Raise the sails?

-We need to raise our spirits first!

-Dilwyn and John are in Bangor,

-Northern Ireland...

-..trying to leave for Scotland.

-Both they and Mystique

-can't wait to set sail.

-Good morning.

-Good morning.

-

-How are you this morning?

-Long night last night.

-It's a bit cooler. Well...?

-Unfortunately, the temporary repair

-didn't really work.

-Professionally, I really have to

-remove the old cracked stern tube...

-..and put a new stern tube in it.

-It's the only job

-that we can guarantee.

-How long? No idea?

-Minimum of a week.

-Minimum of a week.

-

-A week?

-Minimum of a week now.

-It's over before we've started.

-Home James.

-We can't. We've arranged everything

-for the programme.

-We're meant to be in Tobermory

-tomorrow.

-People are expecting us.

-People are expecting us.

-

-We don't have a boat.

-There is a crew up there already

-and the crew here have a van.

-Shall we go with them to Scotland?

-Really?

-Yes! We can do as much as we can

-and see how it goes.

-Maybe we can borrow a boat.

-In the true spirit of this series,

-we're carrying on.

-But without a boat for a while.

-We'll see what happens.

-BLEEP

-BLEEP

-

-Dilwyn!

-Without Mystique,

-the new adventure is about to start.

-Well, the problem

-was the stern gland.

-What? Yours?

-Don't be silly!

-Mine went years ago.

-This is the spirit.

-We can do nothing about it.

-We're leaving Mystique behind.

-We're heading for Scotland.

-Yahoo!

-In a van.

-In a van.

-Here we are, on the boat.

-We can't film any more.

-Or they'll hang us

-and throw us overboard.

-After crossing the Celtic Sea...

-..they'll head for Oban

-and the Isle of Mull.

-Maybe they can hire another boat?

-It's hard to set sail without one.

-Here we are.

-We've crossed the Celtic Sea.

-We're in Scotland.

-This is Loch Lomond.

-# I'll take the high road

-# And you take the low road

-# And I'll be in Scotland afore ye

-# For me and my true love

-will never meet again

-# On the bonnie bonnie banks

-of Loch Lomond #

-Lovely sound, lads.

-Are you OK in the front?

-You've driven for hours.

-Shall I take over?

-He's fine.

-He's doing well.

-It's been a long day

-with lots of problems.

-On the second ferry over to Mull,

-John...

-..you're right, John is hungry.

-Do you think we could have a cuppa?

-There's no tea or anything

-on this one.

-Don't talk nonsense.

-No, the galley's closed.

-Bacon sandwich?

-No. Be grateful that we're out

-in the fresh air on a boat.

-Believe it or not, I miss Mystique.

-That boat's become

-a part of me somehow.

-I missed Mistress for two years.

-I've started to get attached

-to Mystique.

-I've started to love her.

-Well, we're on the Isle of Mull.

-We've travelled in many ways.

-But we arrived by boat.

-Yes. Now we need to find our way

-to Tobermory.

-That's where we were supposed to be.

-We'll see how it goes from there.

-Tobermory is the biggest town

-on the Isle of Mull.

-Today, it is hosting

-the biggest event of the year.

-It's a big day on the Isle of Mull.

-It's Highland Games day.

-Are you going to try anything?

-Are you going to try anything?

-

-I don't know.

-How are you at throwing that brick?

-Throwing a brick?

-Yes, erm... caber.

-Tossing the caber.

-There's a Welsh dragon over there.

-We're representing Wales.

-But John and Dilwyn

-aren't the only Welsh people here.

-There are Welsh

-people everywhere!

-You can't go anywhere.

-I was walking up the hill

-in the Highland Games march...

-..and someone asked

-where I was going in Welsh!

-This is Ceiriog. He lives in Bala.

-He takes care of my car.

-You've been here before,

-haven't you?

-It was 29 years ago.

-It feels strange walking along

-the prom after such a long time.

-We came to do the Mull rally

-back then.

-He's back in 2017 and I've seen him!

-Incredible.

-There are a lot of people here.

-There are a lot of people here.

-

-It's getting busier.

-Yes, but it's quite small.

-The standard is incredibly high.

-People from all over the world

-come to throw a hammer.

-And they're world champions!

-And they're world champions!

-

-On such a small island.

-After all those modes of transport,

-we have made it to the Hebrides.

-We're on the Isle of Mull.

-It's a small place.

-We finally have

-that Scottish atmosphere.

-What does today mean to you

-as Chairman...

-..but to the people of the island?

-For the people of Mull and Iona,

-it's a huge day out. It's huge.

-It's as important as a birthday

-or new year or anything like that.

-It's that important

-to all these people.

-I'm amazed -

-I've been listening to the tannoy...

-..and the people taking part

-come from all over the world.

-Absolutely. And it's basically to

-keep up the tradition of what we do.

-There are some

-very big strong lads here.

-They're throwing

-those big iron balls...

-..as if they were ping pong balls!

-I've never seen such a thing.

-I was going to have a go!

-Is the ground a bit wet?

-I know!

-Oh, this music is...

-It's a bit monotonous, isn't it?

-It's a bit monotonous, isn't it?

-

-No. That's just you.

-It all sounds the same to me.

-Loch Lomond and Mairi's Wedding

-are nothing like each other.

-Anyway, did you know that the

-bagpipes were invented in Wales?

-No.

-The Scottish people

-still haven't got the joke.

-I fell for it!

-You can stay to listen to the music.

-I'm going to the marina.

-I've been looking for a boat

-so that we can sail from here.

-I've phoned a few places.

-We might get to charter one,

-but the guy has to see me.

-When you charter a boat...

-..they want to see your papers

-to check your qualifications.

-By chartering, do you mean paying?

-How much will it be?

-We have to sort it out between us.

-I'm going down to see him now.

-We'll see how it goes.

-Just something to coast around.

-A cheap vessel.

-A cheap vessel.

-

-We don't want anything big.

-Enjoy your music and Mairi's Wedding

-and whatever.

-Don't just get anything.

-We need somewhere to sleep,

-don't we?

-I hope it dries up.

-I hope it dries up.

-

-What?

-Your bum!

-Back in Tobermory marina,

-there's a hint of good news.

-I'm quite nervous. I feel as though

-I'm having a first job interview.

-It's important for me that

-we get back into the sailing.

-I need to get John a boat so that

-we can carry on with Codi Hwyl.

-Very tasty burgers.

-There's a boat coming in

-over there in the distance.

-It's definitely aluminium.

-I'm pretty sure it's this one.

-So for the first time

-this afternoon, I'm smiling!

-I hope that John and I have a boat.

-It depends on my certificates!

-I don't know where Number One

-has gone.

-He was supposed to phone

-about this boat.

-I hope his qualifications

-were good enough.

-But there we go. If not,

-we'll just have to use our feet.

-Thanks for your help. Thanks a lot.

-Bye, bye, bye.

-That was the owner

-saying he's received my CV.

-He's very impressed

-with what I've done.

-He hopes I'll enjoy the boat

-and enjoy Scotland.

-He hopes I'll get to know Lotus.

-After all the trouble, we may see

-some raised sails after all.

-Next time on Codi Hwyl, we'll see

-how John and Dilwyn cope on Lotus.

-What the...?

-It's quite a project to sail

-this boat just the two of us.

-He'll have to pull his socks up.

-We join them as they travel

-southwards towards Iona.
