-Good evening -and a warm welcome to you. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
-Joining me is a performer who's -created many different characters. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:34 | |
-More than that, -she's a character herself. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
-Hello, Gillian Elisa. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
-I think the most memorable character -was Sab, or Sabrina, in Pobol Y Cwm. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:44 | |
-Sabrina is very close to my heart, -as you know. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
-She was the first character -I portrayed on television. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
-I was the youngest cast member -at the time. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
-It was a very exciting time. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
-I was acting with Gaynor Morgan -Rees, Lis Miles, Dilys Davies... | 0:01:01 | 0:01:05 | |
-..Rachel Thomas and Harriet Lewis. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
-Well, you know, I didn't have much -to say on my first day. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:13 | |
-Let's see the close relationship -you had with Harriet Lewis... | 0:01:13 | 0:01:18 | |
-..or as we know her, Maggie Post. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:20 | |
-Well, I don't know how you cope. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
-Five in the house? -It must be awkward at times. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
-We've always been five but -they're bound to find us a place. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
-Of course they will. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
-Can you pass me that invoice? | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
-This one? | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
-Dear me. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:44 | |
-What's wrong now? | 0:01:45 | 0:01:46 | |
-What's wrong now? - -I'm thinking about your father. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
-He's still out of work. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:51 | |
-It's been two months. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
-It's been two months. - -Three. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
-Three months? | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
-He's not the only one, though. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
-No, no. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
-A lot of young men too. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
-I heard they had a decent golden -handshake from the Coal Board. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:11 | |
-Did you? | 0:02:12 | 0:02:13 | |
-Did you? - -A thousand pounds. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
-Dad didn't say anything about it. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
-I don't know -how we completed that scene. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
-That hat was so comical. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
-If you watch that clip carefully, -we're almost laughing. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:31 | |
-We were on the edge. -She was the same. We giggled a lot. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:35 | |
-Did she take you under her wing? | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
-Yes. She could also -be very direct with me. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
-"Have you been in that club again?!" | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
-"No," I'd reply. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
-I'd laugh all the time - -I never felt she was being nasty. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
-She looked after me. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:50 | |
-She looked after me. - -Moving to the stage... | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
-..you were part -of the first televised rock opera. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
-It was called Melltith Ar Y Nyth -in 1975. | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
-I couldn't believe -they'd given me the part. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:04 | |
-During the first audition... | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
-..Rhydderch Jones, the director, -was present... | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
-..along with Ruth Price -and Jack Williams. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:15 | |
-All three -were sitting behind a table. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:18 | |
-I went in and played the guitar. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:20 | |
-Ruth Price then said, -"OK, you've proved you can sing. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:27 | |
-"Is there something you can do -with movement?" | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
-"Yes," I replied. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:33 | |
-"I can do Big Spender." | 0:03:33 | 0:03:35 | |
-"Right," she replied, -"Can we see Big Spender?" | 0:03:35 | 0:03:40 | |
-"Right," I replied. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
-"I've got to go out first." | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
-"Oh, OK." | 0:03:45 | 0:03:46 | |
-I went out -and I came back in and sang... | 0:03:46 | 0:03:51 | |
-# The minute you walked -in the joint, uh-uh... # | 0:03:52 | 0:03:55 | |
-..and I also did the orchestration. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
-I stopped and told them -I had to do the orchestration... | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
-..because it was part of the song. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
-# The minute you walked -in the joint, uh-uh | 0:04:04 | 0:04:07 | |
-# I could see -you were a man of distinction | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
-# A real big spender, -hey, big spender | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
-# Uh, uh, uh-uh # | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
-And they said, "Yes, thank you," -and they gave me the part! | 0:04:14 | 0:04:19 | |
-Let's see you in action now. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
-We performed it in London. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
-# Beyond the world and its woes | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
-# Beyond the pain and misery | 0:04:30 | 0:04:34 | |
-# Beyond the stars, -you'll find a place | 0:04:34 | 0:04:39 | |
-# Inside this dream | 0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | |
-# No-one knows where it's found | 0:04:44 | 0:04:47 | |
-# This world of perfect peace | 0:04:48 | 0:04:52 | |
-# I know that a place exists | 0:04:52 | 0:04:57 | |
-# Beyond the living world | 0:04:57 | 0:05:01 | |
-# I'm searching for the dream | 0:05:02 | 0:05:06 | |
-# That will last forever | 0:05:06 | 0:05:10 | |
-# I heard tales about it | 0:05:11 | 0:05:15 | |
-# Let me see it | 0:05:15 | 0:05:19 | |
-# Beyond the world and its woes | 0:05:19 | 0:05:23 | |
-# Beyond the pain and misery | 0:05:23 | 0:05:27 | |
-# The dream # | 0:05:27 | 0:05:32 | |
-That was a beautiful song. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
-It was a very exciting experience -for me. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:41 | |
-You were then given a role -in a network series... | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
-..called Border Country. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
-The series -was called Border Country... | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
-..and my episode was called -Heyday In The Blood. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:54 | |
-Donald Houston was the father -and I played his daughter. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:58 | |
-I was very excited. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:00 | |
-Donald Houston had appeared -in some great films. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
-It was an honour. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:05 | |
-Let's see a clip of Border Country. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:09 | |
-You? | 0:06:12 | 0:06:13 | |
-Yes. That's how it is. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
-I'm going away. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:19 | |
-Beti is coming with me. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
-Feel proud of yourself? | 0:06:23 | 0:06:26 | |
-No. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:30 | |
-I will try... | 0:06:30 | 0:06:31 | |
-I will try... - -Try? Don't be daft, man. Shut up. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:35 | |
-Beti? | 0:06:39 | 0:06:40 | |
-Yes? | 0:06:42 | 0:06:43 | |
-Speak plain. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:46 | |
-You know all. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
-You know. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:53 | |
-I ask you and ask you. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
-You say nothing. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:01 | |
-Because... | 0:07:03 | 0:07:05 | |
-Because I... | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
-You understand. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
-Inside me is safe -where things ought to be. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:16 | |
-Help myself like this all my life. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:19 | |
-Inside. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:21 | |
-There is no way out, Dad. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:25 | |
-Who said? | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
-I say. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
-I looked so sad. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
-That dialogue was strange. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:37 | |
-I had to say unfamiliar sayings. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:40 | |
-Instead of "go away", -I'd have to say "have be"... | 0:07:40 | 0:07:44 | |
-..and "have be" meant go away. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
-It was the Montgomeryshire dialect. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
-It could be rather strange -but it was a great experience. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:53 | |
-There's a mixture in our next clip. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:56 | |
-You were part -of the Codi Pais series. | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |
-Are you someone -who likes the limelight? | 0:07:59 | 0:08:02 | |
-It was compulsory -if you were part of this series. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
-You can do everything. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
-I enjoy the limelight but -I also enjoy being part of a team. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:12 | |
-When I was with Eirlys Parry, -Siw Hughes and Sue Roderick... | 0:08:12 | 0:08:17 | |
-..if I went over the top... | 0:08:17 | 0:08:19 | |
-..they'd look at me and say, -"Right, fine." | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
-We got on so well as a team. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |

-Welcome back. -Tonight, Gillian Elisa is my guest. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:34 | |
-We've heard your singing voice. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:36 | |
-Years ago, you were a member -of a band called Graffia. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:41 | |
-You don't have a clip, do you? | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
-Before we show it, -how did the group form? | 0:10:44 | 0:10:47 | |
-I was rather cheeky -in my younger days. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:50 | |
-I was in the BBC Club -and a band were playing. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:56 | |
-I told them, "Do you know -what you need? A lead singer. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:01 | |
-"A female, preferably." | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
-"Come over next Thursday," -they said. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
-I went over and I sang my socks off. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
-"You're in," they said. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
-Let's see you singing -your socks off. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
-# Flying like a bird -through a screen of fog | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
-# Changing the channels, -it's nothing but a fool's dream | 0:11:20 | 0:11:23 | |
-# This fire's never-ending, -sparks everywhere | 0:11:23 | 0:11:26 | |
-# People looking at me | 0:11:26 | 0:11:29 | |
-# Where did I go? | 0:11:29 | 0:11:30 | |
-# This life is nothing -but a hall filled with smoke | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
-# Boys grow old living bad lives | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
-# Girls in their short skirts -showing some leg | 0:11:47 | 0:11:50 | |
-# Oh, if I could only go to the end | 0:11:51 | 0:11:53 | |
-# Of my life | 0:11:53 | 0:11:55 | |
-# Move, move on | 0:11:57 | 0:11:59 | |
-# Move, move on | 0:11:59 | 0:12:01 | |
-# Move, move on | 0:12:02 | 0:12:03 | |
-# Move, move on # | 0:12:04 | 0:12:06 | |
-Oh, dear me! | 0:12:08 | 0:12:09 | |
-You said you approached the boys... | 0:12:10 | 0:12:12 | |
-..and told them -they needed a lead singer. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:16 | |
-Are you a pushy person? | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
-You need to be vocal -to move on in this world. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
-If I'm in a situation where I see -an opportunity to further myself... | 0:12:21 | 0:12:27 | |
-..I say, "I'm available -if you need someone like me." | 0:12:27 | 0:12:32 | |
-Or "I'm interested." | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
-I show willingness -in a sensible way. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:39 | |
-I don't push myself -in people's faces. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:42 | |
-There's a way to behave. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:45 | |
-Are you a confident person? | 0:12:46 | 0:12:48 | |
-I'm far more confident -than I was years ago. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:52 | |
-I used to be -a rather insecure person... | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
-..until I was around 50 years old. | 0:12:56 | 0:12:59 | |
-After that, I worked on myself. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
-I decided to get rid -of a lot of props in my life... | 0:13:02 | 0:13:06 | |
-..such as smoking -and drinking alcohol. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:10 | |
-My life has changed since then. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:13 | |
-I still get -a little nervous at times... | 0:13:13 | 0:13:17 | |
-..but I'm far more at ease now. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:21 | |
-It's important for me -to be in touch with the real world. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:27 | |
-Aspects of my life -are lived in a fantasy world. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:32 | |
-That's why I'm still single. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:34 | |
-I've had some long relationships, -though! | 0:13:34 | 0:13:38 | |
-It has affected my private life. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:40 | |
-What I have in my private life -are my dogs and a lot of friends. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:45 | |
-I enjoy my own company, -to be honest... | 0:13:46 | 0:13:49 | |
-..more than I knew. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:51 | |
-When I was younger, -I wanted a relationship... | 0:13:51 | 0:13:54 | |
-..I wanted someone with me. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:56 | |
-It's not as important now. | 0:13:56 | 0:13:59 | |
-I have a lot of male friends... | 0:13:59 | 0:14:03 | |
-..but I don't need a partner. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:06 | |
-Let's change the mood now. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
-You played the part of a seriously -ill mother in a series called Teulu. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:14 | |
-It was a difficult time -for you personally. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:19 | |
-Yes, yes. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:21 | |
-The previous year, -my father died of cancer. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:24 | |
-In this series, -I played the part of Ann... | 0:14:25 | 0:14:29 | |
-..who was dying of cancer. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
-Let's watch a clip. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:34 | |
-All that's left to do -is sign the forms. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:41 | |
-You won't have to worry -about it any more, Ann. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:45 | |
-The children will be safe with me. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
-You'll have to live for me now. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:00 | |
-Do everything twice over. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:03 | |
-Give the kids two kisses each -every morning. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:08 | |
-Will you? | 0:15:09 | 0:15:10 | |
-I'll be there with you. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
-You won't get rid of me easily. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
-What do you think -is on the other side? | 0:15:29 | 0:15:32 | |
-It was a part that hit home for you. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:42 | |
-Well, it's strange -the parts that come one's way. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:46 | |
-That fitted perfectly at the time. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
-When I was offered the part... | 0:15:50 | 0:15:52 | |
-..I didn't know whether I wanted it. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:55 | |
-Dad had died the previous year -but it was like therapy for me. | 0:15:56 | 0:16:01 | |
-Work can be therapeutic at times. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
-After the series was aired... | 0:16:04 | 0:16:07 | |
-..I was nominated -in the Best Actress category. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
-I didn't expect it - -it was a pleasant surprise. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:14 | |
-A lot of people thought I'd done -a lot of research for the part. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:19 | |
-There was no need. -I'd lived through the experience. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:23 | |
-I just played the part. -I learnt my lines and did it. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:28 | |
-You've appeared regularly -on Noson Lawen on S4C. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:34 | |
-Mrs OTT has figured -very prominently. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:37 | |
-Mrs Olwen Tegwen Thomas. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:40 | |
-It must be nice playing a part -that pushes you all the way. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:46 | |
-Every time I play Mrs Olwen Tegwen -Thomas, I feel better afterwards. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:51 | |
-It's the best tonic you could get. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
-I look as if I've had a facelift, -afterwards. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:58 | |
-I use every muscle in my body. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:00 | |
-The double chin comes out. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
-Oh! | 0:17:03 | 0:17:04 | |
-Afterwards, I feel like a swan. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
-You're from Lampeter. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:09 | |
-Have you based Mrs OTT on a family -member or someone from Lampeter? | 0:17:09 | 0:17:14 | |
-There are several people in Mrs OTT. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:17 | |
-There's a lot of me in Mrs OTT. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:19 | |
-I have to thank Ifan Gruffydd and -Euros Lewis for these characters. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:25 | |
-When I was a little girl... | 0:17:27 | 0:17:28 | |
-..I'd go to Gwauncaegurwen -to visit Nana Waun. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:33 | |
-We'd sit around the fire. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:36 | |
-Auntie Annie was Nana's sister. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:39 | |
-She lived in the electrical shop. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:42 | |
-Auntie Annie and Uncle Will -were in the electrical shop. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:46 | |
-Auntie Annie would call -to see Nana... | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
-..and would sit there -smoking around the fireside. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:53 | |
-She wore bloomers. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:55 | |
-She'd enjoy smoking her cigarette... | 0:17:55 | 0:17:58 | |
-..and I'd impersonate her. | 0:17:58 | 0:18:00 | |
-She'd take ages to inhale the smoke. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:02 | |
-I'd think to myself, -"Just smoke it!" | 0:18:04 | 0:18:07 | |
-I took all that in -when I was 10 years old... | 0:18:09 | 0:18:13 | |
-..and I resurrected her character -in a drama called Boyo... | 0:18:13 | 0:18:18 | |
-..with Ronnie Williams. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:20 | |
-He couldn't stop laughing. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:22 | |
-We'd sing in the chapel -with delayed vibratos. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:25 | |
-# I ask not for... # | 0:18:26 | 0:18:30 | |
-That character was based -on Auntie Annie. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:34 | |
-Then Nana Waun, "Act me -putting the coal on the fire." | 0:18:34 | 0:18:38 | |
-That's all I would do and they -would laugh their heads off. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:42 | |
-Can I stand up for this? | 0:18:43 | 0:18:45 | |
-I'd fetch the bucket -from the kitchen... | 0:18:45 | 0:18:48 | |
-..and limp towards the fireplace. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:50 | |
-This leg would go out and I'd -scoop the coal into the fire. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:54 | |
-They thought it was hilarious. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
-I'd noticed -how she stretched her leg out. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
-It's almost slapstick. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:02 | |
-She was in pain. | 0:19:04 | 0:19:06 | |
-She had arthritis... | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
-..but she could laugh -through the pain. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:12 | |
-That kept them going. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:14 | |
-I enjoyed making them happy. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:18 | |
-You've performed -at the Edinburgh Fringe. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:22 | |
-Do you need to be in front -of an audience to keep going? | 0:19:22 | 0:19:26 | |
-There's something special -about being in front of an audience. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:31 | |
-I'd open an envelope -just to be in front of an audience. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:35 | |
-If you don't do something in front -of an audience, you lose confidence. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:40 | |
-The reason I went to Edinburgh -was to perform for an audience... | 0:19:40 | 0:19:45 | |
-..who didn't know me. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:47 | |
-It was a challenge. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:49 | |
-What I took from the performance -in Edinburgh... | 0:19:49 | 0:19:56 | |
-..was the sense that it made me -stronger as a performer. | 0:19:56 | 0:20:00 | |
-Had I not gone there, -I wouldn't be as I am today. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:04 | |
-We're going to see a young Mrs OTT. -Here you are as Tomi's mother. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:10 | |
-Tomi? | 0:20:15 | 0:20:16 | |
-Tomi? - -Mam! | 0:20:16 | 0:20:18 | |
-Tomi? Where are you? | 0:20:18 | 0:20:20 | |
-Where have you been? | 0:20:33 | 0:20:35 | |
-Where have you been? - -Underground, Mam. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:37 | |
-Get out of there. What are you doing -down there? Your feet are soaking. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:42 | |
-You look very pretty tonight. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:45 | |
-Are you off to bingo? | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
-Or is the milkman taking you out -to watch that film? | 0:20:48 | 0:20:52 | |
-You've been five times this week. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:55 | |
-Excuse me. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:56 | |
-Ouch! | 0:20:57 | 0:20:58 | |
-How did you -find yourself underground? | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
-We reached this place -where they keep a lot of old women. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:08 | |
-What are you on about? | 0:21:09 | 0:21:10 | |
-What are you on about? - -A muse-e-mum! | 0:21:10 | 0:21:13 | |
-We were down there for ages. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:18 | |
-We were going around and around -all these dark tunnels. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:22 | |
-Bleddyn said -we might find Arthur's cave. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:28 | |
-I said, "Don't be so silly. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:32 | |
-"He lives in Yorkshire." | 0:21:32 | 0:21:34 | |
-Do you know what we saw first, Mam? | 0:21:38 | 0:21:41 | |
-A big board on the wall with -colliers standing in front of it. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:46 | |
-Bleddyn said it was the coal board. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:49 | |
-I don't know how I kept -a straight face working with Ifan. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:59 | |
-He's an actor and comedian -with whom I loved working. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:04 | |
-He helped me so much. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:05 | |
-He helped me gain confidence -to do comedy on my own. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:10 | |
-Going back to Tomi's mother... | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
-..there was one Noson Lawen -where the producer asked me... | 0:22:13 | 0:22:17 | |
-..if I could perform -as Mrs Thomas without Tomi. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:21 | |
-I didn't think I could do it alone. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:24 | |
-That was the starting point -for Mrs OTT. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:27 | |
-I had to give this lady a name - -Mrs Olwen Tegwen Thomas. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:31 | |
-She was Tomi's mother -and she became Mrs OTT. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:35 | |
-She's almost a different character -but that's how she came about. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:40 | |
-What's next for Gillian Elisa? | 0:22:42 | 0:22:44 | |
-What's next? Goodness knows. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:46 | |
-I'm available. -I'm willing to do anything. | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
-I'm doing a lot of shows -which last two hours. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
-They're bilingual shows. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:55 | |
-All this has happened -since I performed in Edinburgh. | 0:22:55 | 0:23:00 | |
-They're going down very well, -especially with learners. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:05 | |
-I sing in Welsh and English. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:10 | |
-I sing River Deep Mountain High... | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
-..bilingually, bilaterally -and by myself! | 0:23:13 | 0:23:16 | |
-On that note, thank you. -It's been a great journey. | 0:23:17 | 0:23:20 | |
-Thank you. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:22 | |
-Until next time, -from us all here, goodnight. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
