0:02:55 > 0:02:58- The mini dress is long gone - but I kept this top.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02- It was far more expensive - than the dress!
0:03:02 > 0:03:03- I've never worn it.

0:05:50 > 0:05:54- I have several - Bellville Sassoon dresses.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- A designer's cut is very special.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03- I can't wear some designers' clothes - even if they come in my size...
0:06:04 > 0:06:06- ..because the cut doesn't suit me.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- Bellville Sassoon is perfect for me.
0:06:26 > 0:06:31- I wore this skirt - to film several television series.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34- I teamed it with various jackets.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36- It's quite flirty.

0:06:48 > 0:06:52- I walked through the hall, - down to the far end...
0:06:52 > 0:06:56- ..and as I reached the stage, - someone asked me for an autograph.
0:06:57 > 0:06:58- I was happy to oblige...
0:06:58 > 0:07:03- ..but whilst I was signing, - a woman tapped me on the shoulder.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06- As I was chatting - to the autograph hunter...
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- ..I grabbed - the mystery woman's hand...

0:07:13 > 0:07:18- I turned around, to give - the mystery lady an autograph...
0:07:18 > 0:07:23- ..but she said, "Excuse me, Margaret - your skirt's inside your knickers!"
0:07:25 > 0:07:29- I'd walked down the hall - with my skirt tucked in my tights!
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- Oh, the embarrassment!
0:07:31 > 0:07:32- Oh, the embarrassment!- - I nearly died!
0:07:47 > 0:07:52- I won't wear anything unless I feel - at ease and happy in it.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56- My clothes may not be trendy - and may not be everyone's taste...
0:07:56 > 0:08:00- ..but all that matters to me - is that I'm happy.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Going out on stage - is no mean feat...
0:08:03 > 0:08:06- ..let alone if you're uncomfortable.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28- I can't afford designer clothes...
0:10:28 > 0:10:31- ..so I try to mimic them, - using my own ideas.

0:10:58 > 0:11:03- Does that give you a chance - to experiment with different looks?
0:11:03 > 0:11:06- I was lucky, as Y Garej - is a show about cars and gadgets.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10- That meant - I didn't dress in a girlie way.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14- I'm not good at being girlie - and I'm often called a tomboy.
0:11:15 > 0:11:20- I could wear jeans and a big pair of - leather boots to present the show.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35- I see garments - which look great on the hanger...
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- ..and I bring them home - and think I've gone mad!

0:11:41 > 0:11:43- I put the mistakes in that wardrobe.- - Let me see them!
0:11:43 > 0:11:46- I must guess - which ones are the mistakes.

0:12:40 > 0:12:44- It's nice to dress up - from time to time...
0:12:44 > 0:12:46- ..and this is how I do it!
0:12:47 > 0:12:50- I wore this - when I revised in the library.
0:12:51 > 0:12:56- I teamed it with these spectacles - because they make me feel clever!
0:12:56 > 0:12:58- Do you like them?
0:12:58 > 0:13:01- I'd love to say - they make you look clever...
0:13:01 > 0:13:03- ..but they don't!
0:13:03 > 0:13:05- Nia, you're not a fan of spectacles!
0:13:10 > 0:13:15- They're prescription glasses - and I bought them in Barcelona.

0:14:05 > 0:14:06- He knew I'd like it.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08- Did you feel obliged to buy it?
0:14:08 > 0:14:10- Did you feel obliged to buy it?- - No, because I did like it.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14- It would have been awkward - had I hated it!
0:14:15 > 0:14:19- What about those extra touches - - shoes, earrings and necklaces?

0:17:49 > 0:17:52- I'm unlikely to wear - a famous band's T-shirt.

0:18:46 > 0:18:50- Charity shops realize - they sold items for 50p...
0:18:50 > 0:18:52- ..which went on eBay for 30.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30- # Just like me #
0:19:31 > 0:19:35- As we're in the nest, - let's start with the bird clothes.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39- This was my first bird garment.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44- It's a lovely cowboy shirt - with pictures of parrots on it.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47- They look a bit like canaries!
0:19:49 > 0:19:53- I like it because it doesn't - look like a shop-bought shirt.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58- I think someone bought this shirt - then added the embroidery.
0:20:00 > 0:20:04- This owl T-shirt - was a gift from my girlfriend.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08- As you can see, it's well-worn!
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- I wear things - until they're unwearable!
0:20:12 > 0:20:16- I don't wear this now - because it's permanently stained.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18- This looks like curry...
0:20:18 > 0:20:22- ..but it's a stain - left by a rusty clothes horse.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29- I bought this - when I was on holiday in Thailand.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32- A woman sold T-shirts on the street.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35- I assumed she designed them herself.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38- I couldn't resist this one.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46- This is my favourite T-shirt.
0:20:46 > 0:20:50- Gareth Bonello saw this T-shirt - when I was on a night out...
0:20:51 > 0:20:53- ..and he could name every bird.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56- Can you remember them?
0:20:56 > 0:21:01- Derek, Tony, Gareth, Arwel, Robat, - Watkin, Tomos, Eddie, John...
0:21:01 > 0:21:04- ..and Huxley - on the top of the T-shirt!
0:21:10 > 0:21:13- Tell me about these ugly jumpers!
0:21:13 > 0:21:17- I have a problem with people - who think my jumpers are ugly!
0:21:17 > 0:21:19- I think they're lovely.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24- People see me wearing this - and they think it's a joke.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28- They say, "Ha, ha, ha! - Huw's wearing a Christmas jumper!"
0:21:28 > 0:21:31- I don't think - this is a Christmas jumper.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33- It's just a nice jumper!
0:21:33 > 0:21:37- If I lived in Iceland, - I'd be a cool dude if I wore this.
0:21:48 > 0:21:53- This is from Penboyr woollen mill, - near my girlfriend's home.
0:21:53 > 0:21:58- I really like this jumper, - even though it's a bit snug.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04- I found this jumper - in Jacob's Market yesterday.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07- It's a lovely golfing jumper.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09- It's full of holes.
0:22:09 > 0:22:10- Something has eaten it!
0:22:11 > 0:22:13- This is quite a nice tank top.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16- I bought this in a second-hand shop.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21- Delme, a friend of mine, - had a works' night out recently...
0:22:21 > 0:22:23- ..and the theme was Bad Jumpers.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26- He told me - he had a Bad Jumpers night...
0:22:26 > 0:22:29- ..and he asked - to borrow one of my jumpers!
0:22:29 > 0:22:32- I thought - - hey, they're not bad jumpers!
0:22:33 > 0:22:36- You could have kitted out - all his colleagues!
0:22:39 > 0:22:40- Huw?
0:22:40 > 0:22:42- Huw! Huw! Huw!
0:22:45 > 0:22:50- My girlfriend and I went travelling - around Europe on a shoestring.
0:22:50 > 0:22:55- We had no money and we promised - ourselves we wouldn't spend wildly.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57- Our journey ended in Berlin.
0:22:58 > 0:23:03- We found a higgledy-piggledy shop - which had stuff everywhere.
0:23:03 > 0:23:08- I saw a rack of unworn suits which - the shopkeeper found in a warehouse.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13- I'm wearing the top half - of the suit now.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16- The bottoms - are wonderful, flared trousers.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18- Straight out of the 1970s.
0:23:18 > 0:23:22- It's an amazing suit - and it had never been worn.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24- I paid 100 for it which is silly!
0:23:27 > 0:23:30- I wanted to wear this suit - to go out that night.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35- I was so excited to be wearing - my suit, I lunged into the bed...
0:23:35 > 0:23:37- ..and I tore the crotch!
0:23:37 > 0:23:41- I've only worn the suit once and - that was when we were on holiday.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45- What I really got for 100 - was an expensive jacket!
0:23:50 > 0:23:54- Thank you - for talking me through this mess!
0:23:54 > 0:23:56- What are you trying to say, Nia?
0:23:56 > 0:23:59- I want to come over - and tidy your bedroom.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01- Tidy!
0:24:01 > 0:24:05- If you want to come and - tidy my room, that would be tidy!
0:24:05 > 0:24:06- You're a nightmare!
