-I wanted to be a singer. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
-I started singing properly -when I was three or four years old. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
-As a child, I was ill for a year. -I missed a whole year of school. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:09 | |
-During that time, -the only entertainment I had... | 0:01:09 | 0:01:13 | |
-..was my brother's record player. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
-I'd listen to EPs and sing along. -That's how it all started. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
-As it happens, -we have a surprise for you tonight. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
-Do you like surprises? | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |

-This is going to be -a pleasant surprise. It's a classic. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
-Let's go back to the 1960s. -Watch this. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:36 | |

-I can't believe that. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
-You were so sweet. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
-I want to cry. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
-How old were you? | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
-I think I was 10 years old, -10 or 11 years old. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
-We released a record, -Treflyn A Siwsan, when I was 11. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
-That looks like a studio to me, -I remember the song... | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
-..but I don't remember -where it was recorded. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
-You were singing with Treflyn. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
-I saw Treflyn last week. -He hasn't changed a bit. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:06 | |
-I don't remember -how we started singing together. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
-We performed -in a number of concerts. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
-During the late 1960s, -we sang everywhere... | 0:03:15 | 0:03:18 | |
-..in halls everywhere. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
-We had a lot of fun. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
-I do remember that. -I'm so glad you found that. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
-As it happens, here's another chance -to see you and Treflyn singing. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:33 | |
-In the spirit -of the 1960s and 1970s... | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
-..here's a protest song -about Porthmadog harbour. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:40 | |
-# They've erected a gate | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
-# To stop us going to the quay | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |
-# Anna, Joe and Cassie | 0:03:50 | 0:03:52 | |
-# Will try to knock it down | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
-# Keep the harbour for us | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
-# Keep the harbour for us | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
-# The English want a fee, -the English want a fee | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
-# Keep the harbour for us # | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
-What about the people -who come here to enjoy themselves? | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
-Don't they make more use -of the harbour? | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
-The problem as I see it is this. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
-Some people's livelihood depends -on their ability to use their nets. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:22 | |
-We want people -to visit Porthmadog, yes... | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
-..but they must allow us -the right to fish the waters too. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:31 | |
-You live in Pen-y-Cei -or you have links with the harbour. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:36 | |
-What are your concerns -about what might happen... | 0:04:36 | 0:04:40 | |
-..if this law is passed? | 0:04:40 | 0:04:43 | |
-I'd expect the children to be -allowed to paddle in the water... | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
-..as they have for many years. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
-I had six children... | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
-..and they used to jump out of bed -and jump into the water. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:56 | |
-They've always done it. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
-How much use -do you make of this harbour... | 0:04:58 | 0:05:01 | |
-..compared with the English -residents of those flats? | 0:05:01 | 0:05:05 | |
-We use this harbour -and bring our children here daily. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
-We've always done it. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:11 | |
-Has this stopped now? | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
-Has this stopped now? - -We can't go there any more. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:15 | |
-Look at all these boats. -The children jump from the quayside. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:19 | |
-They can't jump in -when the boats are here. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
-# All from Pen-y-Cei to Tremadog | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
-# Want access to the quay | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
-# Keep the harbour open for us | 0:05:28 | 0:05:31 | |
-# Keep the harbour open for us | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
-# The English want a fee, -the English want a fee | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
-# Keep the harbour for us | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
-# Keep the harbour for us | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
-# Keep the harbour for us | 0:05:43 | 0:05:45 | |
-# The English want a fee, -the English want a fee | 0:05:46 | 0:05:48 | |
-# Keep the harbour for us # | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
-Dear me! -We could write lyrics in those days! | 0:05:56 | 0:05:59 | |
-"Keep the harbour for us, -the English want a fee." | 0:05:59 | 0:06:03 | |
-We wrote that in a night. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
-Treflyn came over and we wrote it - -the protest song. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:11 | |
-What happened as a result? | 0:06:11 | 0:06:13 | |
-Porthmadog took over the Cob. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
-A cooperative was formed -and the battle was won. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:20 | |
-There we go, -we went some way to helping them. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:23 | |
-It's so strange to see that again. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:26 | |
-You've sung since you were -three, four years old... | 0:06:26 | 0:06:29 | |
-..and it was an integral part -of your upbringing. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:32 | |
-Did it boost your confidence -for the future? | 0:06:33 | 0:06:37 | |
-At the time, I wasn't so sure. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:39 | |
-I didn't enjoy school, -to be perfectly honest. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:43 | |
-I wasn't there that often - -I was busy singing in concerts. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:47 | |
-I was in TWW in Bristol when I was -ten years old with Stan Stennett. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:52 | |
-I performed on Disc A Dawn. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
-To be perfectly honest, -when I attended school... | 0:06:54 | 0:06:58 | |
-..I was very insecure -as I was on television so often. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
-I was worried -people thought I was showing off. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
-I was very insecure about that. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:07 | |
-I didn't stop doing it -because that's what I enjoyed. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
-The school wasn't... | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
-There were -some wonderful teachers there... | 0:07:14 | 0:07:18 | |
-..but I didn't really -enjoy my time in school. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:22 | |
-There was very little drama -or music in schools at that time. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:26 | |
-I remember the headmaster, -he didn't speak a word of Welsh. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:30 | |
-He asked me, "What do you want -to do with your life?" | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
-I said I wanted to be -a singer or actress. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
-"Don't be so silly," he said, -"become a nurse or a hairdresser." | 0:07:37 | 0:07:40 | |
-That's how it was at the time. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:43 | |
-I didn't listen to him! -Maybe I should have. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:47 | |
-No, I don't think so. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:49 | |
-No, I don't think so. - -I went on to act and sing. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:51 | |
-I do know it made me -a rather insecure person. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:55 | |
-I know that sounds very strange... | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
-..because I perform and have -performed throughout my life. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:02 | |
-I'm a rather insecure person. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:04 | |
-I regret leaving school -without going on to college. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:08 | |
-I feel I rushed into it, -into real life. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:13 | |
-I started when I was 15 -and then went on tour. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:16 | |
-I regret that. -The insecurity has stayed with me. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:20 | |
-It didn't hold you back. -We move on a few years now. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:25 | |
-A lot of water -has flowed under the bridge. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:28 | |
-A call came from Weatherfield... | 0:08:28 | 0:08:30 | |
-..when you were offered a part -in Coronation Street. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
-Watch this. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
-Yes, my dear? | 0:08:38 | 0:08:39 | |
-Yes, my dear? - -Vodka slimline. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:41 | |
-Ice? | 0:08:41 | 0:08:42 | |
-Ice? - -Yes, and lemon. Where is he then? | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
-Alec Gilroy. -His name's over the door. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:47 | |
-He's here now. You're in luck. Alec. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:50 | |
-What? | 0:08:50 | 0:08:51 | |
-Tanya. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
-Come and give me -one of your cuddles. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
-Seem to be big pals, don't they? | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
-What brings you here? | 0:09:01 | 0:09:02 | |
-They said, "Guess who's on the tour? -Cuddles Gilroy." | 0:09:03 | 0:09:06 | |
-I said, "Here we go." | 0:09:06 | 0:09:07 | |
-The Middle East tour? -Wally never said. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
-Be like the old days. Porthcawl -at night. Haven't forgotten, I hope. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:17 | |
-Yes, well... -It won't be quite like the old days. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
-Bet? | 0:09:22 | 0:09:23 | |
-Come and meet Tanya. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:25 | |
-She's an exotic dancer. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:28 | |
-Really? You do surprise me. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:31 | |
-It's the wife - Bet. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:34 | |
-Oh. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:36 | |
-Megan and Bet, -the battle of the hair. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
-I won that battle. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:41 | |
-I won that battle. - -I think you're right. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:43 | |
-What was it like to be in Coronation -Street, a long-established series? | 0:09:43 | 0:09:48 | |
-When my agent asked me -to go up there, I agreed. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:52 | |
-I think I'm right in saying that I -only went up for two episodes. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:57 | |
-I filmed both episodes -and they called me back again. | 0:09:57 | 0:10:01 | |
-I was there for months after that. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:03 | |
-The experience was amazing. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:05 | |
-I'd been a fan of Coronation Street -for many, many years. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
-My first scene -was in the Rovers Return. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:12 | |
-I couldn't believe it. -I couldn't believe I was in there. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:16 | |
-I thought to myself, "Oh, I'm here." | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
-It's an icon, in a way. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:22 | |
-Working with Julie Goodyear -and Roy Barraclough... | 0:10:23 | 0:10:27 | |
-..especially Roy, it was great. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
-We became bosom buddies. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
-We still phone each other -and send Christmas cards. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:36 | |
-We worked together about five years -after that in a pantomime. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:40 | |
-He's such a lovely man. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
-It was an amazing experience -and I enjoyed my time there. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:48 | |
-They wanted me to stay there -a little longer... | 0:10:48 | 0:10:51 | |
-..but at the time, -my daughter Melisa was very young. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
-I felt I'd have to go away -for a long time so I didn't... | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
-..but it was very enjoyable. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:00 | |
-That's all for now. We'll see -a lot more of you in Part 2. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:06 | |
-We'll be back in two minutes. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:09 | |

-Welcome back. -I've been joined by Sue Roderick. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:32 | |
-At the end of the 1980s, -you were part of a dynamic quartet. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:38 | |
-Four women in the Codi Pais series. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
-This series broke new ground -in a way. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:43 | |
-Yes, it did. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:45 | |
-A lot was done in England at the -time, such as French and Saunders. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:50 | |
-Nothing in Wales -had brought four women together. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:54 | |
-Nothing risque was being done, -either. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:57 | |
-I think Carys Hall Evans -brought us all together. | 0:11:57 | 0:12:00 | |
-Huw Davies, the head of HTV at the -time, was eager to do the programme. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
-It was a success with male and -female audiences, but mostly female! | 0:12:05 | 0:12:09 | |
-We were allowed to say things -women weren't supposed to say. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:14 | |
-The cast included Siw Hughes, -me, Gill and Eirlys Parry. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:18 | |
-We were four very different women -in many ways. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:22 | |
-Sometimes, Gill and I were more -adventurous and took more risks. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:28 | |
-It was a nice combination - each -of us had different characteristics. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:34 | |
-There was a lot -of singing and dancing. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
-The talent came through -in every sense of the word. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:40 | |
-We were also part of -the production team which was nice. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:43 | |
-We could contribute -and write for the show. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
-Let's have a look at how exactly -you did contribute! | 0:12:47 | 0:12:50 | |
-# I need a friend when night falls | 0:13:08 | 0:13:12 | |
-# I need a friend -when mist surrounds me | 0:13:12 | 0:13:16 | |
-# I need a friend -when dark clouds gather | 0:13:16 | 0:13:19 | |
-# I need a friend -when the rain drowns me | 0:13:20 | 0:13:23 | |
-# I need a friend -when the praise stops | 0:13:24 | 0:13:27 | |
-# I need a friend -when words fails me | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
-# I need a friend -when I have nowhere to hide | 0:13:31 | 0:13:35 | |
-# I need a friend when night falls # | 0:13:35 | 0:13:39 | |
-A pair of legs. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:43 | |
-That was another hair show! | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
-That's how Gill and I performed - we -showed off and we had a lot of fun. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:51 | |
-There's something nice -about being able to let go. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
-It was great. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:57 | |
-We would suggest items for the show -and Carys would say, "Yes, great." | 0:13:58 | 0:14:03 | |
-Then we'd go, "Oh, no." | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
-You mentioned Victoria Wood -and French and Saunders. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
-Women were breaking new ground -in the world of comedy. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:14 | |
-Caryl had already done so and was -still doing it when we did that. | 0:14:14 | 0:14:18 | |
-It was nice to see four very -different women coming together. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:23 | |
-It was such good fun. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:26 | |
-One man who was very influential... | 0:14:26 | 0:14:29 | |
-..in opening the door -to the acting world for you... | 0:14:29 | 0:14:34 | |
-..was Wilbert Lloyd Roberts. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:36 | |
-We have a clip -of a play by Saunders Lewis... | 0:14:37 | 0:14:40 | |
-..which was shown on the small screen -at the same time as it was staged. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:46 | |
-There's also an interview -with Wilbert. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:49 | |
-You see, Sara, Paul and I have -to meet so often in the college. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:58 | |
-A wife and a lover -discussing the husband. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
-It's a scene from Saunders Lewis's -play - Problemau Prifysgol. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:05 | |
-The drama will be televised -on Harlech TV later this year. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:12 | |
-Is it a wise move in terms -of developing drama in Wales... | 0:15:12 | 0:15:16 | |
-..to televise a play when it's being -performed in the theatre? | 0:15:17 | 0:15:22 | |
-Co-operation is important especially -in a small country like this. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:27 | |
-It's important to give actors -a chance to be on stage and screen. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:32 | |
-I think people are more interested -in the television broadcast... | 0:15:32 | 0:15:37 | |
-..after seeing it performed... | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
-..or if it's been talked about -as a stage production. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:44 | |
-I'm not saying every stage play -should be televised... | 0:15:44 | 0:15:48 | |
-..but co-operation is good for the -actors and all institutions... | 0:15:48 | 0:15:53 | |
-..which provide a means for actors -of earning a living. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:56 | |
-You were young when you auditioned -for Wilbert Lloyd Roberts. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:04 | |
-I'd responded to an advertisement -in a paper. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:07 | |
-Cwmni Theatr Cymru -was looking for actors. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
-I went there, -read a script and sang. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:14 | |
-He asked me when could I start. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | |
-I told him -I could start when I left school. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
-He thought I'd already left school. -I was only 14 years old. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:24 | |
-In the meantime, -he suggested I had singing lessons. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:28 | |
-No-one gave singing lessons -in Porthmadog. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
-He told me his wife, Betty, -could teach me. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:36 | |
-I was taught by her for years - -we became good friends. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:40 | |
-We went through the Guildhall exams, -all the way up to Grade 8. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:45 | |
-We had a lot of fun - -she was such a nice lady. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
-When I finished my schooling, -I returned to see Wilbert... | 0:16:48 | 0:16:52 | |
-..and I joined Cwmni Theatr Cymru. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | |
-It was strange watching that clip. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
-Gaynor Morgan Rees and Beryl -Williams were in the audition... | 0:16:59 | 0:17:03 | |
-..when I was 14 years old. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
-The three of them were there. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:07 | |
-Wilbert was a man of the theatre. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:09 | |
-I've never seen that clip before. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:12 | |
-He would promote -and believe in his own words. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:16 | |
-That's very important. -We've lost that ability in Wales. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:20 | |
-We don't like marketing. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:23 | |
-We don't like telling people -that we're good. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:26 | |
-He was very good at that. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:28 | |
-We need more of that these days. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
-There's nothing worse -than a half-empty theatre. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:35 | |
-I've done a lot of theatre work - -it's kept me going for years. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:39 | |
-That's down to a lack of marketing. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
-It has nothing to do -with actors or the production. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:46 | |
-It's a lack of marketing. | 0:17:46 | 0:17:48 | |
-There are some very good companies. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:51 | |
-Dafydd Hywel promotes his shows. -I've worked with Frank Vickery. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
-Apart from those two, -there's a lack of marketing. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:59 | |
-When you perform to packed houses, -it gives you a lot of confidence. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:04 | |
-I don't care what anyone says, -everyone wants an audience. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:09 | |
-It was nice to watch that clip. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:12 | |
-What was nice about Mr Roberts, we -never called him Wilbert, never... | 0:18:12 | 0:18:17 | |
-..he was true to his word and I went -there at the first opportunity... | 0:18:18 | 0:18:22 | |
-..to act - -he gave me that opportunity. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:25 | |
-Betty gave you singing lessons. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
-Was there a point where you had -to choose between singing and acting? | 0:18:28 | 0:18:32 | |
-Yes. I did well in my exams and she -asked, "What are you going to do?" | 0:18:32 | 0:18:38 | |
-I said, "Well, I like both." | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
-She said, "OK, we'll see." | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
-I went into the acting side. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
-I still sing and I like to think I -could have been a classical singer. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:52 | |
-However, it wasn't to be. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:54 | |
-Next, we have a classic film. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:58 | |
-You featured in a film that was -nominated for an Oscar in 1992. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:03 | |
-That film was Hedd Wyn. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
-You played the part -of Lizzie Roberts. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:08 | |
-The trout has swum away. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
-We used to swim here -when we were young. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:21 | |
-I know. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:23 | |
-As boys, we used to watch you. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
-You're full of mischief. | 0:19:28 | 0:19:30 | |
-Had my parents known, -they would have killed me. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:35 | |
-Come on, Lizzie, -I'll race you to the river. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:41 | |
-What? I can't. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:43 | |
-Come on. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |
-No-one will know. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:47 | |
-Let me go in first. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:49 | |
-Hurry up. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:04 | |
-I'm nearly ready. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:06 | |
-Ellisyn, what are you going -to wear when you come out? | 0:20:28 | 0:20:31 | |
-What? | 0:20:31 | 0:20:33 | |
-Cheeky! | 0:20:50 | 0:20:51 | |
-I thought you'd have stopped it -earlier. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:54 | |
-No, no. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:55 | |
-The story of how Hedd Wyn -was nominated is fascinating. | 0:20:56 | 0:21:01 | |
-Yes. I don't think -a lot of people are aware of this. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
-A man from Dolgellau, Mr Evans, -had seen the film. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:08 | |
-It had a cinema release before -there was any talk of the Oscars. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:13 | |
-He wrote to the Academy in LA and -told them he'd watched this film. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:18 | |
-He thought it was fantastic. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
-He wanted it nominated for an Oscar -and that's how it happened. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:24 | |
-A man from Dolgellau -helped us get to the Oscars. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:27 | |
-What was it like -when you were there? | 0:21:27 | 0:21:30 | |
-I was worried I didn't have -enough clothes to wear. | 0:21:30 | 0:21:34 | |
-There were so many events to promote -the film and parties to attend. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:39 | |
-I met some very interesting people -during that time. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:44 | |
-Who? | 0:21:44 | 0:21:45 | |
-Who? - -Well... | 0:21:45 | 0:21:47 | |
-I met so many people - -Clint Eastwood, Raquel Welch. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:52 | |
-I went to Elton John's party. -This sounds like name dropping. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:57 | |
-Keep going. | 0:21:57 | 0:21:58 | |
-Anthony Hopkins looked after us - -he was our sponsor. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:04 | |
-I'd worked with him a few months -earlier in Selected Exits. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:08 | |
-That was nice -because I knew him well. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
-It was nice being with him. | 0:22:13 | 0:22:15 | |
-One of the best things -that happened to me there... | 0:22:15 | 0:22:18 | |
-..was having a meal with the Academy -and sitting next to Gregory Peck. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:24 | |
-He was a huge hero of mine. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:26 | |
-He reminded me of my father - -he was very much like him. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:30 | |
-He was there with his wife and I -thought, "What am I going to say?" | 0:22:30 | 0:22:35 | |
-I had to say something. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:37 | |
-He started the conversation - -he was such a gentleman. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:41 | |
-He said he'd enjoyed the film. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:43 | |
-I said, "Of course, -you know Wales, don't you?" | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
-Moby Dick was filmed here. -That's how the conversation started. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:51 | |
-After that, I had something to say -but I didn't know how to say it. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:56 | |
-Dad's friend, a very close friend -of my mother and father... | 0:22:56 | 0:23:00 | |
-..his name was Tom Clegg -and he was an actor. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |
-He was the native American Indian -in Moby Dick. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:07 | |
-He was at his side -throughout the film. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:10 | |
-He also banged the gong -before the Rank films. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:13 | |
-The well-toned body. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:15 | |
-The well-toned body. - -That's the one. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:17 | |
-They were friends for years -after being in the Army together. | 0:23:17 | 0:23:21 | |
-I was talking to him -about Tom Clegg. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:24 | |
-I never thought I'd speak -to him about someone we both knew... | 0:23:24 | 0:23:28 | |
-..or at least my parents knew. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:31 | |
-We talked for hours. -It's a small world. | 0:23:31 | 0:23:34 | |
-The Welsh find their way everywhere. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
-Most definitely. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:39 | |
-Well, we've brought back -some fine memories tonight. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:43 | |
-Thank you very much, Sue. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:45 | |
-Is it over? What a shame! | 0:23:45 | 0:23:48 | |
-It wasn't that bad. | 0:23:48 | 0:23:49 | |
-It wasn't that bad. - -I want to carry on! | 0:23:49 | 0:23:51 | |
-Aren't there any more clips? | 0:23:51 | 0:23:53 | |
-Thank you very much. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:55 | |
-Thank you very much. - -Thank you. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:57 | |
-We'll be back next week. Goodnight. | 0:23:57 | 0:24:00 | |
