-Welcome once again to Cofio. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
-My guest tonight collects stories -and has done so for half a century. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:33 | |
-He has found them all over the world. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
-Sharing some of them tonight -is an S4C stalwart, Gwyn Llewelyn. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:42 | |
-Good evening. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
-They say that you've retired... | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
-..but I can't see you being idle. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:49 | |
-Yes, I did retire, -almost three years ago. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
-I felt I'd reached a milestone, 65. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
-I sense that some people -stay on a bit too long, perhaps. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
-Yes, I'm retired, -but I'm back producing now. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
-I do Wedi 7 three days a week, -but I've slowed down a bit. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
-I thought we'd kick off -this evening... | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
-..by showing different aspects -of your career. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
-Let's start with a series -that began in 1986. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
-Here's the first programme. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
-Having spent the last seven years -travelling 200 miles... | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
-..to present a TV programme, -I'll do so tonight in my own garden. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:36 | |
-As ever, may I ask -"How are you this evening?" | 0:01:36 | 0:01:39 | |
-Welcome to the first edition -of Hel Straeon. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
-This time last year, -petrol was 38 pence a gallon. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:51 | |
-Today, it's 55 pence. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
-FLOSY and NLF have said -that they'll now target... | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
-..army families and children -as well as the soldiers. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:09 | |
-Here, near Quito, the capital -of Ecuador in South America... | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
-..I have a foot -on each side of the equator. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
-I'm supposed to do something with -this rope, but I'm not sure what! | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
-I don't remember -some of those clips. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
-You left school at the age of 16 -to enter the world of journalism. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:41 | |
-Yes. That was back in 1958 - over 50 -years ago, which is rather shocking. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:47 | |
-It was a unique experience -in many ways. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
-I worked on the North Wales -Chronicle in Bangor... | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
-..collecting local news stories. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
-One weekly task was to visit -the Dean of Bangor in the Cathedral. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:03 | |
-He used to send me out -to fetch his cigarettes for him! | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
-I've managed to look young -for much of my life... | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
-..but at 16, I probably looked 10! | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
-Do you feel you missed out at all -by not pursuing higher education? | 0:03:14 | 0:03:19 | |
-What I lost, or feel that I lost... | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
-..was the freedom offered -by three years away at college. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
-I missed out on National Service -by a matter of a few months. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:31 | |
-I've had work responsibilities -ever since the age of 16. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
-That's not necessarily good. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
-Everyone deserves some freedom. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
-Have certain individuals -influenced you in your career? | 0:03:42 | 0:03:46 | |
-Oh, yes, at Teledu Cymru -for instance. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
-The gurus were T Glynne Davies -and John Roberts Williams. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:55 | |
-Before then, at the Chronicle, -I recall Elfyn Hughes. | 0:03:55 | 0:04:00 | |
-He wrote under his initials "CEH". | 0:04:00 | 0:04:03 | |
-He looked like Methuselah to me. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
-He was probably about 80 years old. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
-He came from the previous century, -an old style Dickensian journalist. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:13 | |
-You asked for this clip -of C Elfyn Hughes. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:17 | |
-At the time, he was 82 years old -and you were interviewing him. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:22 | |
-Looking back -at your lifetime in journalism... | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
-..what are your feelings today? | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
-The big thing in journalism today... | 0:04:31 | 0:04:36 | |
-..is the story. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
-Nobody dwelled on that in the past. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
-Here's an example. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
-I was working for a newspaper -in a town up here in the north. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:48 | |
-This is going back 50 years. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
-A cow escaped from a field. | 0:04:55 | 0:05:00 | |
-Do you know where it went? | 0:05:01 | 0:05:03 | |
-Into a nearby chapel. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
-The chapel door -had been left wide open. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:10 | |
-The cow went into the chapel. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:15 | |
-A curious thing about that event -was that not a single word... | 0:05:16 | 0:05:22 | |
-..appeared in local newspapers -about the cow in the chapel. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:29 | |
-Today, journalists -and sub-editors... | 0:05:29 | 0:05:35 | |
-..would have created -prominent headlines. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
-An excellent tale would be penned... | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
-..about a cow that had entered -the temple of the saints. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:48 | |
-Recognizing a good story -is essential, isn't it? | 0:05:50 | 0:05:55 | |
-I remember losing out -on one of the biggest stories. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:59 | |
-This is going back a while. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:02 | |
-I think it was in 1959. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:08 | |
-I was living in Tynygongl -on Anglesey. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:11 | |
-I'd catch a bus from Benllech -to Bangor to work at the Chronicle. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:16 | |
-One day, I heard talk on the bus -of a shipwreck near Moelfre. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:21 | |
-I didn't pay too much attention. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:23 | |
-This was the Hindlea, -which hit the rocks in Moelfre... | 0:06:24 | 0:06:27 | |
-..exactly a century -after the Royal Charter disaster. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:32 | |
-I was at school in Amlwch with -the sons of Moelfre lifeboatmen. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:37 | |
-There was often talk in school -about the lifeboat's missions. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:42 | |
-I thought no more about it. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:44 | |
-My journalistic initiative -ought to have told me... | 0:06:44 | 0:06:48 | |
-..to head for Moelfre -to land this great Hindlea scoop. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:53 | |
-You moved from newsprint -to the screen. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:57 | |
-What sort of transformation was it? | 0:06:58 | 0:07:00 | |
-What sort of transformation was it? - -It was a gradual thing, in my case. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:02 | |
-I came to Cardiff aged 20, -to be a Western Mail sub-editor. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:07 | |
-Three months later, -I joined Teledu Cymru... | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
-..the old commercial channel, -which went bust. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:13 | |
-Teledu Cymru only lasted 10 months. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
-I worked with T Glynne Davies -and John Roberts Williams. | 0:07:17 | 0:07:23 | |
-Gradually, I began -to appear on screen. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:27 | |
-There was no definite -starting point. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
-I never thought, "From tomorrow, -I'm a television reporter." | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
-I did present the news -for Teledu Cymru on its last night. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:38 | |
-You went on to travel the world. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:41 | |
-Here's a clip -of your first foreign reporting job. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:45 | |
-You were sent to Aden in 1967. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
-That goes back some way. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:50 | |
-Aden is a real hole. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
-It's on the eastern side -of the Red Sea. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
-I've deliberately called it a hole. | 0:07:57 | 0:08:00 | |
-That's literally -how best to describe part of it. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:04 | |
-Over there, -beyond the mountains, is the Crater. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:09 | |
-As the name suggests, -that part of town is built... | 0:08:09 | 0:08:12 | |
-..on the site of an old volcano. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:16 | |
-It has been dormant for centuries. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:19 | |
-Today's eruptions are different. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
-Those homes you see over there... | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
-..belong to British people -and other wealthy people in Aden. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:30 | |
-Beneath me is Ma'alla Main, -now better known as Murder Mile. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:36 | |
-They wouldn't let you stand there -in your shirtsleeves today. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:44 | |
-Reporters are now trained, -and they wear flak jackets. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:48 | |
-The only training I got -involved grenades. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:52 | |
-If one was thrown at you, -hit the floor, feet facing it. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:57 | |
-It's better to lose your legs than -your head and never throw it back. | 0:08:57 | 0:09:02 | |
-Was it exciting -to go to somewhere like that? | 0:09:02 | 0:09:06 | |
-Did you feel you had reached -the heights by being a war reporter? | 0:09:06 | 0:09:11 | |
-Oh, yes. More recently than that, -I was in Beirut. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:15 | |
-I was up in the mountains there. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
-I was with an American -who was wearing a Hawaiian shirt. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:22 | |
-I was a bit gung-ho in my attire, -with chest pockets and epaulettes. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:27 | |
-He said to me, "If you don't mind, -I won't walk with you." | 0:09:28 | 0:09:32 | |
-His reason was that we might be -spied upon from across the valley. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:36 | |
-He said that if shooting started, -they'd kill me and not him. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:41 | |
-They wouldn't want to waste bullets -on some floral-shirted idiot! | 0:09:41 | 0:09:46 | |
-He spoke a lot of sense. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:49 | |
-In a war zone, -don't look like a soldier. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:51 | |
-Trouble wasn't confined -to foreign lands. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:56 | |
-There was unrest here in Wales. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:59 | |
-The run-up to the Investiture -was a tumultuous time. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:04 | |
-There was Mudiad Amddiffyn Cymru, -the FWA and others. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:08 | |
-You didn't know who they all were, -and things moved so quickly. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:13 | |
-We now have a clip showing you, -standing outside the tax office... | 0:10:13 | 0:10:18 | |
-..in the wake of a large explosion. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
-There's now no doubt whatsoever -that a bomb caused this explosion... | 0:10:22 | 0:10:27 | |
-..at the Inland Revenue -in Llanishen. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:30 | |
-At 2.00am this Sunday morning, -a bang was heard for miles around. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:37 | |
-A link can't be ruled out -between this explosion... | 0:10:37 | 0:10:42 | |
-..and the one late last year -at Cardiff's Temple of Peace. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:48 | |
-Enquiries are continuing -in that respect... | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
-..and in all respects. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
-Many people are being questioned -in an attempt to find the culprits. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:59 | |
-I was referring there -to the Temple of Peace. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:04 | |
-I worked for HTV at that time. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:07 | |
-My programme, Y Dydd, sent a crew, -as did Report Wales - duplication! | 0:11:07 | 0:11:12 | |
-It wouldn't happen these days. | 0:11:12 | 0:11:14 | |
-But only Y Dydd's film unit -was available at the time. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
-I was there with John Humphrys, -who's now world-famous of course. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:24 | |
-John said, like this, -"I'll go first today." | 0:11:25 | 0:11:28 | |
-And I said, "Why?" | 0:11:28 | 0:11:30 | |
-"Well, we're the English programme." | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
-As if it gave him -a stamp of authority. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:36 | |
-I'm a placid guy, but I saw red -and punched him in the face. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:41 | |
-We fell to the floor, -amidst all the mess. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
-The policemen were laughing -as they came towards us. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:49 | |
-They'd come to catch bombers, -not to separate two reporters. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:54 | |
-Amusingly, many years later, -I was back in Cardiff with the BBC. | 0:11:54 | 0:12:00 | |
-I shared a desk with Beti George. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:04 | |
-Who should walk into the newsroom -with the late Deryk Williams... | 0:12:04 | 0:12:08 | |
-..Deryk was a pal of mine, -a news producer... | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
-..but John Humphrys, -who came over for a chat. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:15 | |
-He then went out again with Deryk. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:18 | |
-I asked Beti, "Do you think -he remembers my punch?" | 0:12:18 | 0:12:22 | |
-Apparently, -he raised this with Deryk. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:25 | |
-He said, "I wonder if Gwyn -remembers the fight we had?" | 0:12:25 | 0:12:29 | |
-John Humphrys stayed -in the world of hard news. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
-You followed a different path -by joining the Hel Straeon team. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:39 | |
-Was it hard to change direction -and leave the news? | 0:12:40 | 0:12:44 | |
-I didn't regret it at all. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
-To be honest, with the news... | 0:12:46 | 0:12:48 | |
-..you tend to pursue stories -which involve disputes or quarrels. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:55 | |
-I've made more friends -with all my work subsequently. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:59 | |
-But I must have missed -one aspect. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
-After being on Hel Straeon -for a few months... | 0:13:03 | 0:13:06 | |
-..I was feeling melancholic. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:08 | |
-I'm not prone to depression, -but I didn't feel well in myself. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:14 | |
-I remember chatting at length -to Dafydd Huws, the psychiatrist. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:20 | |
-He said, "Good gracious! | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
-"I knew someone who wanted to do -research work on people like you." | 0:13:22 | 0:13:27 | |
-It seems that it affects pilots, -policemen, firemen and presenters. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:32 | |
-When you have a shot of adrenalin, -and that leaves your system... | 0:13:32 | 0:13:37 | |
-..you can get this feeling. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:39 | |
-Ever since, I've been alright! | 0:13:39 | 0:13:42 | |
-In part two, -we'll travel abroad a bit... | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
-..and we'll see you -wandering the globe. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:49 | |
-Don't go far. -Join us again in two minutes. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:52 | |

-Welcome back to Cofio -with Gwyn Llewelyn. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:14 | |
-You've travelled far and wide -with your work. | 0:14:14 | 0:14:17 | |
-Did you enjoy all that travelling? | 0:14:17 | 0:14:19 | |
-Did you enjoy all that travelling? - -Very much so! | 0:14:19 | 0:14:22 | |
-It was in my blood. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:25 | |
-In fact, -I became worried at one stage. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:29 | |
-There's a word -for an incessant desire to travel. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:34 | |
-"Dromomania". -I think it affected me. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:38 | |
-You don't want to be where you are. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:40 | |
-I was on a Kenyan beach -with the film crew once. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:44 | |
-In the sky, I could see -these white jet streams. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:47 | |
-I said to the crew, -"Gosh, I'd like to be on that now." | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
-That feeling's gone now. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:54 | |
-I still like to go on holidays, -but the travel bug has gone now. | 0:14:54 | 0:15:00 | |
-But you never liked sea travel? | 0:15:00 | 0:15:03 | |
-I've had bad experiences sailing. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
-At one time, I'd sail a lot. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:08 | |
-We took a boat from Cricieth, -Corwynt, on a race around Ireland. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:12 | |
-I sailed with Richard Tudor... | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
-..prior to his two sailing trips -around the world. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:19 | |
-There were some awful experiences! | 0:15:19 | 0:15:20 | |
-There were some awful experiences! - -We'll see you suffering now. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
-At two o'clock this morning, -it's Tuesday, I think... | 0:15:35 | 0:15:38 | |
-..I was up on duty... | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
-..but the sheer effort -of putting on heavy clothes... | 0:15:42 | 0:15:48 | |
-..down here in this heat... | 0:15:48 | 0:15:50 | |
-..got the better of me. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:52 | |
-When I reached the deck... | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
-..I was ill for the first time -since we started. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:01 | |
-A fierce wind was raging by then. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:05 | |
-We were sailing hard through it. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:08 | |
-At least that's behind us, -but we're now heading into the wind. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
-That has made the boat's movements -go from bad to worse. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:20 | |
-I'm afraid I shall be here -until the wind subsides... | 0:16:21 | 0:16:25 | |
-..with a bucket by my side. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:27 | |
-Painful memories! | 0:16:31 | 0:16:33 | |
-Heledd, that was after -what I thought had been a day. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:37 | |
-I was then told I had been -out of it for almost two days. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:42 | |
-When I came round, I had no feeling -in the lower half of my body. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:46 | |
-I thought I was paralysed. | 0:16:47 | 0:16:49 | |
-The boys had changed shift, -with water going everywhere. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:54 | |
-They'd thrown their "heavyweathers" -on top of me. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:58 | |
-With the weight, I couldn't move! | 0:16:58 | 0:17:01 | |
-You were unconscious for two days. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:03 | |
-So I was told, yes - -it was a horrific experience. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
-You were a pro to do that link. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:11 | |
-You didn't see the camera tilting -towards my bucket, thank goodness. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:16 | |
-Yes, I'm quite glad of that too! | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
-You also travelled a lot -for your series Gwyn A'i Fyd. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:24 | |
-You were the Welsh Alan Whicker -or David Attenborough. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:28 | |
-It was a great experience, -visiting 30 different countries. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:33 | |
-We did three series in all. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:35 | |
-We were looking -for interesting Welsh people abroad. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:40 | |
-Amazingly, we kept finding them! | 0:17:41 | 0:17:43 | |
-I still keep in touch -with two or three of them. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:47 | |
-It was a most enjoyable time. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:50 | |
-You spent a lot of time -with other people back then. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:55 | |
-You were with the crew on the boat. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:57 | |
-However, you describe yourself -as a private person. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:01 | |
-Was it hard to live with others -in such conditions? | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
-I'm fine with people -that I know well. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
-I've no background in public life. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:11 | |
-I didn't sing or recite -or anything like that as a child. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:15 | |
-I was an only child, -raised in Tynygongl on Anglesey. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:19 | |
-There weren't many -children of my age there. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:22 | |
-I'm probably more of a loner -than I'd want to be, if I'm honest. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:27 | |
-I'm fine with my friends. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
-I'll avoid crowds -if I think they'll know me. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:36 | |
-Are you ill at ease -if people come up to you? | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
-I can handle it perfectly well. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:42 | |
-You wouldn't think -there was any problem. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:46 | |
-Avoiding the contact altogether -would be my inclination... | 0:18:46 | 0:18:50 | |
-..if I thought it might happen. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:52 | |
-I've never been comfortable with it. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |
-We have an exotic clip -from Gwyn A'i Fyd. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:59 | |
-There's no natural fresh water -on the Galapagos Islands. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:14 | |
-As in dry places -elsewhere in the world... | 0:19:14 | 0:19:17 | |
-..animals have adapted accordingly. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:20 | |
-And yet, if you spit -on the palm of your hand... | 0:19:21 | 0:19:24 | |
-..the birds around me -are very appreciative. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:28 | |
-They come from all directions. | 0:19:28 | 0:19:30 | |
-You must learn a lot -doing programmes like that. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
-You have to do your research. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:44 | |
-You do that, -but I've heard others say this too. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:48 | |
-You cram in a great deal quickly... | 0:19:48 | 0:19:50 | |
-..and learn a fair amount -about some pretty obscure topics. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:55 | |
-Unfortunately, it goes in one ear -and out the other! | 0:19:55 | 0:19:59 | |
-I wish I'd managed to hold on -to more of the information. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:04 | |
-It's a transient thing. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
-That's the difference -between broadcasting and writing. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:11 | |
-If you put something in print, -it'll survive after you. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:16 | |
-In our game, it's gone -almost as soon as it's absorbed! | 0:20:16 | 0:20:20 | |
-We've seen you travelling -quite a bit in tonight's show. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:25 | |
-You're a petrolhead too. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:28 | |
-Why do you like cars? | 0:20:28 | 0:20:31 | |
-It's just as well that I do. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:34 | |
-For seven years, I drove weekly -between north and south Wales. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:39 | |
-That's when I was with the BBC. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:42 | |
-People were forever complaining -about the A470. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:47 | |
-I enjoyed travelling along it, -but I knew it well. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:52 | |
-If I gave people lifts at night, -and cut corners, they'd tense up! | 0:20:52 | 0:20:57 | |
-I was familiar with the road -and knew there was nothing coming. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:02 | |
-Let's see you in action. | 0:21:02 | 0:21:05 | |
-There was an element -of doing something that I loved... | 0:21:07 | 0:21:12 | |
-..and then trying to convince others -that they would like it. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:16 | |
-In one motoring series, -I drove Aston Martins and Jaguars. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:22 | |
-I drove them for a week -and enjoyed it immensely. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:28 | |
-Only one British car -now sells for less than 1,000. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:40 | |
-You'd get 2 back from that 1,000 -if you bought the Hillman Imp. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:44 | |
-For 898, you could buy this car, -the cheapest car in the show. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:51 | |
-The Citroen Deux Chevaux, -the Citroen 2CV. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:54 | |
-It's on sale in Britain -for the first time in many years. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:58 | |
-This car is making its debut -in Britain today. | 0:21:58 | 0:22:03 | |
-The Volkswagen Golf. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:05 | |
-It's on the market for 1,300. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:09 | |
-Every year, manufacturers roll out -the fastest, most expensive... | 0:22:09 | 0:22:13 | |
-..and most luxurious cars -at the show. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
-This year, this is the fastest - -the Ferrari GT4 Berlinetta Boxer. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:21 | |
-Is the Ferrari on top of your list? | 0:22:23 | 0:22:25 | |
-Is the Ferrari on top of your list? - -No, not really. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:27 | |
-I remember the first brand new car -I bought was 500. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:32 | |
-I was a regular visitor -to the Motor Show. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:38 | |
-Interesting times. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:40 | |
-We've seen a cross-section -of everything you've done. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:44 | |
-You've had so many different -experiences. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
-Why haven't you published -an autobiography? | 0:22:48 | 0:22:52 | |
-You're not the first to ask. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
-I've been asked three times -to write one. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
-I don't know. | 0:22:57 | 0:22:59 | |
-I've had so many -interesting experiences. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:02 | |
-They've been interesting for me - -I've enjoyed them. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:06 | |
-Would they be interesting -for others? | 0:23:06 | 0:23:09 | |
-I don't think an autobiography -can be completely honest. | 0:23:09 | 0:23:14 | |
-I like to speak my mind. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:18 | |
-I fear I would upset a few people -if I wrote an autobiography. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:23 | |
-Perhaps I'm just lazy! | 0:23:23 | 0:23:25 | |
-I mentioned that you were retired. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:28 | |
-Enjoy your retirement. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:31 | |
-Who knows what the future holds -for Gwyn Llewelyn? | 0:23:31 | 0:23:35 | |
-Thank you for your company. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
-That's all for tonight. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:40 | |
-I'll be back next week -for another trip down memory lane. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:44 | |
-Until then, goodnight. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:46 | |
