-Subtitles

-Hello and welcome to Bore Da

-on 9 July.

-I hope you're all well and ready

-to spend the next hour with me.

-On today's programme...

-..I'm at an Eisteddfod for pupils of

-English medium schools in Swansea.

-We meet a young girl

-called Sophie Brown...

-..who has just completed a sponsored

-walk around the whole of Wales.

-There's the story

-of a girl called Catrin...

-..who has had her hair cut

-for a very good cause.

-Gerallt Pennant celebrates

-National Ice Cream Month.

-We also congratulate...

-..a very special lollipop lady

-from Tregaron.

-Yes, there's something for everyone

-this morning...

-..so sit back and enjoy Bore Da!

-I was recently invited

-to be a guest speaker...

-..at an event organized by the team

-behind the Urdd's Youth Eisteddfod.

-I had a warm welcome and met some

-truly inspirational young people.

-The Urdd's Youth promotes the Welsh

-language for non-Welsh speakers.

-It hosts events for second-language

-young people in South Wales.

-I'm in Swansea this morning...

-..to do some clog dancing and

-listen to bands and guest speakers.

-Oh, and I'm one of them!

-Today, we're holding

-an informal conference.

-It's for Welsh learners

-from English medium schools.

-There's an array of activities

-and guest speakers.

-Tudur Phillips

-will teach some folk dancing.

-The afternoon closes with

-a performance from the band, Chroma.

-It's an opportunity

-to hear Welsh being spoken.

-I'm Megan from Old Colwyn and I did

-a Welsh degree at Bangor University.

-Three days after I left school...

-..I went on a trip

-to the Urdd Eisteddfod in Bala.

-By the end of that day, I wanted

-to learn Welsh and am fluent now.

-It opened my eyes to Welsh culture.

-You're just a huge fan

-of the Urdd Eisteddfod...

-..and have even got a tattoo.

-Yes, I've got a tattoo

-of the Urdd's logo.

-And go!

-Folk and clog dancing are perfect.

-The instructions are so simple.

-It's forward four, back four, jump!

-It's different to sitting in school

-being bombarded with information.

-Yes, and it only takes a little

-to get started.

-It's fun and they don't realize

-they've been thinking in Welsh.

-It's great to see them enjoying it.

-This is brilliant.

-We get to speak Welsh

-outside of the classroom.

-I enjoyed doing the dancing

-with everyone in the circle...

-..and liked listening

-to all the guest speakers too.

-Who was the best?

-Who was the best?

-

-Alun.

-Thanks for that, Wil.

-Do you want to try it?

-OK, I'll... OK.

-His first time.

-His first time.

-

-Yeah!

-Was that right?

-Yes, and on the first try,

-other than the four in rehearsals.

-Did I do it properly?

-You let go at the end but did it and

-can enter the Eisteddfod next year.

-Am I too old?

-Am I too old?

-

-Not for the National.

-Great, I'll be there.

-Thanks, Tuds.

-Everyone has enjoyed it

-and got a lot of out of the day.

-They've done new things, such as

-dancing with Tudur Phillips...

-..and all rocked out

-with a live Welsh band.

-It's been an incredible day.

-Thanks to everyone

-for making me feel so welcome.

-Sophie Brown has just completed

-a 1,000-mile walk...

-..around the whole of Wales.

-It took her three months.

-Sophie is the youngest girl

-to complete the route.

-We sent our cameras

-to meet Sophie...

-..and congratulate her

-on her last day.

-My name's Sophie and I'm studying

-music at Durham University.

-I'm 21 years old.

-I chose to walk around Wales...

-..because I want to be

-the youngest person to do it.

-Wales is the first country to have

-a path that goes all around it.

-My college in Durham gave me money

-to buy a tent and boots.

-There's a charity

-called the Sara Pilkington Fund...

-..that remembers a student

-who died whilst at college.

-Her parents want to help other

-students to get life experiences.

-I work in a coffee shop...

-..and raise money

-to educate children...

-..in coffee growing communities.

-The people of Wales are so kind

-and have opened their homes to me.

-It's encouraged me to speak Welsh.

-I've forgotten a lot of it...

-..because I studied in England

-so I don't really use Welsh a lot...

-..but want to learn more so that

-I can speak the language again.

-I finish today.

-At the end of it all...

-..I will have walked

-over 1,000 miles...

-..during a period of three months.

-Congratulations to Sophie.

-Keep up the good work with your

-Welsh as you're doing really well.

-Have you visited

-the National Eisteddfod?

-The festival

-has an incredible history.

-It started centuries ago.

-This is the story.

-We've come to Cardigan Castle...

-..where the first Eisteddfod

-took place 841 years ago.

-It was held by Lord Rhys

-who was the Prince of Deheubarth...

-..and very important in South Wales.

-He wanted to prove his power to the

-rest of Wales, the other princes...

-..and the Normans and the English.

-He sent invitations to Ireland,

-Scotland, England, France...

-..and the whole of Wales.

-He asked if anyone wanted to compete

-for one of his two chairs...

-..in the competitions

-for musicians and poets.

-A gentleman from the north

-won the poetry competition...

-..but the musician's chair

-remained in the south.

-The Eisteddfod was held at Cardigan

-Castle on Christmas Day in 1176.

-We tend to associate the Eisteddfod

-with the warm summer sun in August.

-It was held on Christmas Day

-and people came from far and wide.

-The hall where the Eisteddfod

-was held is currently underground.

-I look forward to the day

-when it is exhibited again.

-The first National Eisteddfod

-is important to the Welsh.

-The Eisteddfod

-is Cardigan's gift to Wales.

-It's also Cardigan's gift

-to the entire world.

-Eisteddfods are held in the four

-corners of the globe these days.

-Lord Rhys

-would be delighted with this.

-The Welsh are also proud

-to celebrate our culture...

-..in this unique manner.

-Thanks to Ceri Wyn Jones

-for telling us that amazing story.

-That's all for now but in

-the second part of the programme...

-..we remember the world-famous

-actor, Richard Burton.

-We meet a girl

-from the Llyn Peninsula...

-..who cut her hair

-for a very important charity.

-There's interior design advice from

-our resident expert, Carys Tudor.

-Go and grab a quick cuppa and I'll

-see you back here in a few minutes.

-Welcome back.

-Neath is our next port of call

-this morning...

-..to celebrate the life of the

-world-famous actor, Richard Burton.

-With the help of the Lottery...

-..some young people have made a film

-about his incredible life.

-It's 90 years since his birth

-and over 30 years since his death.

-Richard Burton still inspires

-even if you don't remember him!

-I'm joined by Eirwen Hopkins

-from Swansea University.

-You've co-ordinated this project

-so tell us all about it.

-The diaries form part of the Richard

-Burton archives at the university.

-We secured funding

-from the Heritage Lottery Fund...

-..to run a project for young people

-that would inspire them.

-Sally Burton, Richard's widow...

-..wanted us to inspire young people

-to do better in life.

-Did you take them to his home?

-We started with some dramas,

-visited Pontrhydyfen and Taibach...

-..and The Big Pit

-to learn about mining communities...

-..and Exeter College in Oxford

-where Richard Burton was a student.

-We saw the fantastic one-man-show

-about Burton by Rhodri Miles.

-The young people loved it.

-I'm sure they found it

-very inspiring.

-Thank you, Eirwen.

-Let's take a look at a clip

-of the film itself.

-Richard Burton's life

-was still a puzzle.

-We had not really heard much

-about him as we were growing up...

-..yet, here was Harriet

-saying how famous he was.

-We weren't sure how to start

-but like a challenge.

-We began by trying to imagine...

-..what Burton's life was like

-growing up in Port Talbot.

-We visited places

-he would have known and we know.

-Walked on paving slabs where

-he would have walked as a child.

-Yes, they have certainly

-been inspired.

-I'm at the exhibition and joined

-by Angharad Rees who is a local.

-Does Burton continue

-to inspire the locals?

-Yes, definitely.

-I was raised in Pontrhydyfen and

-he was very important to the area.

-His name is on the sign

-that welcomes you to the village.

-There's so many stories and

-his family still live in the area.

-You don't remember him.

-No, but Mam and Dad remember him...

-..when he came home from Hollywood

-to see his family in the 1970s.

-The area has a lot

-of unforgettable stories.

-It's great that you celebrate him

-and thank you, Angharad.

-We're all familiar with Sian Owen,

-the niece of Richard Burton.

-I last saw you at an exhibition

-in London for Burton and Taylor.

-Tonight is very different

-but you're back on home turf.

-It's lovely that it's in this area

-and not in London!

-It's great to see the photographs

-and making the film was fun.

-Do you ever get emotional

-when you see these things?

-I do, sometimes.

-I'm sure I'll get emotional tonight

-when I see Mam on the screen.

-A lot of time has passed...

-..but you still read about him

-in the newspapers every week.

-You spent time with him

-and them as a couple.

-Was he different when he wasn't

-in front of the camera?

-Yes, and he spoke Welsh to us.

-The only time he ever spoke Welsh

-was when he was with the family.

-He never thought he was a fluent

-Welsh speaker but was a special man.

-Yes, and it's wonderful that he's

-being celebrated locally tonight.

-Is it important

-that his memory lives on?

-Yes, but I'm very disappointed...

-..that there isn't

-a permanent exhibition like this...

-..in Neath or Port Talbot.

-There should be something.

-Let's hope we have something

-in the coming years.

-Thank you, Sian

-and it's always lovely to see you.

-You can see the film

-before Christmas on YouTube.

-That's wonderful and congratulations

-to those young people.

-It was a big day for a pupil

-at Ysgol Cymerau in Pwllheli.

-Catrin was cutting her hair for

-the charity, the Princess Trust...

-..and we got to play a part

-in the day.

-Four years ago, I remember thinking

-that Catrin was very brave...

-..after cutting off

-her long, beautiful hair.

-We're back because Catrin

-is doing exactly the same thing...

-..for the Little Princess Trust

-and Epilepsy Research UK.

-I cut my hair in Year 2

-when I was seven years old.

-Children who have cancer

-have lost their hair.

-I'm cutting my hair for it

-to be made into wigs for them.

-You're doing it for that charity...

-..but are raising money

-for another charity.

-Yes, for epilepsy as Dad had it and

-he died when I was four months old.

-You've raised a lot of money.

-Yes, I think I've raised about 800.

-Your hair is very long, Catrin.

-Let me show everyone

-the length of your hair.

-Wow!

-Are you ready to cut it all off?

-Are you ready to cut it all off?

-

-Yes.

-Are you sure?

-Are you sure?

-

-Yes.

-I'm so proud of Catrin.

-It's her second time of doing it

-and it's always her idea.

-It takes 15 minutes to do Catrin's

-hair so I'll be glad when it's off!

-Catrin lost her father to epilepsy

-when she was just four months old.

-It was classed as Sudden Unexpected

-Death from Epilepsy or SUDEP.

-As a family, it's important to tell

-Catrin about her wonderful father.

-She's doing this

-in memory of her father.

-As a friend and cousin,

-I'm proud of Catrin.

-She's cutting her hair for the

-second time and is very brave.

-When we're together, I do her hair

-and we have a lot of fun...

-..so I'm going to miss

-her long hair.

-Catrin's so brave as she lost

-her father when she four months old.

-She's raising money for others.

-I'm Catrin's cousin and it's sad

-to think of what happened to her.

-She's very brave

-for cutting her hair.

-Catrin is a special girl.

-It's four years

-since she last cut her hair.

-Since then,

-she has inspired other girls...

-..to cut their hair and send it

-to the Little Princess Trust.

-We're very proud of her.

-How do you feel now?

-I'm in shock!

-I didn't realize it was that long

-until I can see it like this.

-Are you going to miss your hair?

-Are you going to miss your hair?

-

-No.

-What does Ysgol Cymerau

-think of Catrin's efforts?

-CHEERING

-Well done, Catrin.

-Are you superstitious and fear using

-patterns of birds in your home?

-If yes,

-you could change your tune...

-..after watching

-and listening to Carys' advice.

-I'll start with this owl

-which is a very loveable bird.

-It's a great motif

-but owls can be seen as unlucky.

-If an owl lands on your roof,

-it could mean that death is ahead.

-It's an old superstition that deters

-people from displaying owls at home.

-Owls often feature in old tales

-such as the Mabinogin.

-Despite the superstition, owl motifs

-are still popular in the home.

-Next, there's an old superstition

-surrounding peacock feathers.

-I inherited my grandmother's

-peacock feathers when I was 20.

-Peacock feathers deter you from

-having children or getting married.

-I've never married or had children.

-However, my grandmother had them in

-her home and had an enormous family!

-Many claim that the devil's eye

-features in the peacock feather.

-In the Far East, they believe that

-the eyes in the feather patterns...

-..provide additional eyes

-to protect your home.

-Let's move to the two white doves.

-White doves are a symbol of love.

-They're considered lucky

-and can bring love to a home.

-There's a goose on that cushion.

-But they can be a sign of danger.

-They can be nasty birds.

-If people saw a goose, they were

-weary of something happening.

-Next, we have the duck

-made popular by Beatrix Potter.

-If you hear a quacking duck,

-it's good luck.

-If you're in trouble...

-..spotting a flying duck can

-be a sign of better times ahead.

-Meirion from the Quack Pack

-must be a very lucky man.

-The quacking

-is supposed to bring luck.

-Nest, we have the seagull.

-A seagull that is on the shore

-is a sign of a storm at sea.

-If a seagull lands on a boat's mast

-or anywhere on the boat...

-..your journey

-will be filled with luck.

-A seagull attacked me

-and stole my sandwich in Caernarfon.

-These can be nasty birds but

-they're generally considered lucky.

-When a bird follows you

-into your home...

-..it's a good sign

-as it's supposed to bring good luck.

-The same is true

-if a bird follows you anywhere.

-If a bird enters the home

-and struggles to get out...

-..it's a sign

-that you're going to break free...

-..and that something better

-is on the horizon.

-I'm learning a lot today.

-The robin is everyone's favourite.

-It's probably one of the most

-popular birds in Britain.

-There's the old tradition that

-a robin at your door brings luck.

-Does the robin in my garden count?

-Does the robin in my garden count?

-

-I'm not sure about that.

-I have a friend

-who works in a garage.

-He's befriended a robin

-and it eats from his hand.

-It's a sign of luck.

-Let's move on to the swallow

-depicted in those blue bowls.

-Swallows are lucky birds that signal

-better weather and better times.

-It's good luck...

-..if you see a flight of swallows

-forming a beautiful pattern.

-However,

-if the flock looks untidy...

-..and this includes blackbirds

-or jackdaws too...

-..then it's a sign of bad luck.

-Next, we have a cushion

-featuring the swans.

-Two swans coming together

-always form the shape of a heart.

-This is a sign of love.

-Swans can also be nasty birds.

-They're very strong

-and can break your arm.

-In Porthmadog, there's a sign

-warning you to stay away from swans.

-They were prone to attack.

-A lot of these superstitions

-belong to a bygone era.

-Many are afraid of birds after

-watching Hitchcock's The Birds.

-I didn't spot any magpies,

-jackdaws or blackbirds in the shops.

-There's a superstition about magpies

-depending on their number.

-I don't believe

-in half of these superstitions.

-Many claim that if a bird

-flies past you on the right...

-..it's inauspicious or unlucky...

-..but it's lucky if they fly on

-your left and cross in front of you.

-You just have to turn quickly

-when they pass.

-It's said to be good luck

-if a bird makes a mess on you.

-My grandmother claimed it would

-help you win the Pools!

-Thank you, Carys.

-I'm not superstitious at all...

-..but wouldn't walk

-under a ladder either!

-It's time for a break

-but when we return...

-..we mark Ice Cream Month in a

-traditional parlour in North Wales.

-There's news of a new app that

-features some Biblical stories.

-We also congratulate Caws Teifi

-Cheese on its special award.

-Don't you move a muscle!

-.

-Before long on Prynhawn Da...

-..we'll meet some of you

-who offer bed and breakfast.

-Do you enjoy travelling the country

-and staying at a bed and breakfast?

-Contact us if you've had

-an experience to shout about.

-Email us on [email protected]

-You can also contact us via

-Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.

-We look forward to hearing from you.

-Cheese has to be one of my favourite

-foods in the whole wide world.

-We're very lucky...

-..because delicious cheeses are made

-the length and breadth of Wales.

-One of our most famous producers

-has just won an important award.

-The award is for

-the Best Welsh Cheese.

-We're proud to have won this award

-seven times since 2002.

-The cheese is called Saval.

-It's similar to a Caerphilly cheese.

-The skin is washed in white wine...

-..three times a week

-for eight weeks.

-It has a strong aroma

-but the taste is fantastic.

-Be prepared to be amazed!

-We produce our own cheese...

-..by using fresh local milk and

-local vegetables, seaweed and herbs.

-The company aims

-to support local farmers...

-..and keep producing

-quality, affordable cheese...

-..in an environmentally-friendly

-manner.

-Only two Welsh companies

-make cheese from unpasteurized milk.

-We're happy to show

-how cheese was traditionally made.

-Congratulations

-to Caws Teifi Cheese.

-July is earmarked

-as National Ice Cream Month.

-Believe it or not, ice cream dates

-back to the time of the Romans.

-Gerallt Pennant

-celebrated the month.

-There's a day for everything,

-a week for a few things...

-..but the whole of July

-is dedicated to ice cream.

-It's a busy month for producers.

-You've produced ice cream

-for ten years so what's your secret?

-As a company, our secret

-is to make high quality produce.

-We start with a superb, core

-ingredient which is Jersey milk.

-It's very creamy...

-..and near our home

-which reduces the food miles.

-It doesn't take long to get here.

-It's in the tank in minutes and

-used quickly to make our ice cream.

-It's one thing to produce ice cream

-but something else to market it.

-I did a course

-at Bangor University...

-..and started with

-Taste of Anglesey last year.

-I started as the marketing officer

-but have moved into other fields...

-..and used my creative skills

-from university to design new pots.

-You get to work

-in an ice cream factory.

-This is heaven on earth!

-Yes, it's great

-and there's a lot of perks.

-Mmm, Helen.

-The milk is important.

-The marketing is important.

-But what about the passion?

-What about the love you feel

-towards ice cream?

-I don't just love ice cream

-but love local produce.

-By selling and producing

-this ice cream at home...

-..we promote the produce

-of the Welsh countryside.

-This also promotes

-the Welsh language and culture.

-This year, we're honoured to be

-on the National Eisteddfod Maes.

-That will be quite a challenge.

-We usually have one, simple stand...

-..but have six stands to build

-this time!

-It's going to be challenging.

-We'll sell our various flavours.

-It's so much more

-than just ice cream.

-I'll see you at Bodedern in August

-and try all of these.

-You can have

-a different flavour each day!

-Gerallt was in his seventh heaven...

-..and that ice cream

-looked delicious!

-Next, we hear about a brand-new app

-for Sunday Schools.

-It was launched on the Maes

-of the Urdd Eisteddfod.

-It's a heavy book in the chapels

-and churches of Wales or a website.

-The Bible

-isn't something from the past.

-It's developing and evolving

-to suit today's technological world.

-You can even learn about Jesus in an

-app launched at the Urdd Eisteddfod.

-This is the most ambitious app

-for children aged seven to twelve.

-The app takes us to the imaginary

-world of the Guardians of Ancora.

-The characters are Fabula...

-..the Guildkeeper,

-the Shiner and the Avatars.

-They guide us through games

-where you search using zipwires.

-After finishing the quiz,

-you enter the world of the Bible.

-A story about Jesus,

-an incredible person.

-There are twelve challenges

-based on Jesus' life.

-We hear about Christmas,

-Jesus' life and the Resurrection.

-It's a fantastic way to

-introduce children to Bible stories.

-"Thanks for letting me

-borrow your boat, Peter."

-There's a company called Dubit

-that specializes in children's apps.

-SU also has experience of adapting

-Bible stories for children.

-Both seemed to work well together.

-In Wales, a great team from various

-denominations and movements...

-..got together to create

-a Welsh version of the game.

-This project isn't child's play.

-Developing this app

-has cost 1.1 million.

-It will be available throughout

-the UK in English and Welsh.

-What do you think of this app?

-It's really exciting and

-I like the way the characters move.

-I can't wait to see

-what happens next in the game.

-What sort of things did you do

-with the app?

-I could run and jump

-to different areas in the game.

-You had to press a button to run

-so it was quite cool.

-It was really good and a lot of fun

-and it also helps my reading skills.

-What did you enjoy about it?

-I liked playing around

-and experimenting with the app.

-There are lots

-of different things to do.

-Children love the game.

-It's exciting to see

-their surprised faces...

-..when they notice

-that the game is in Welsh.

-The gaming world

-is predominantly an English world.

-The app is completely Welsh

-with Welsh voices.

-There are quizzes to play, films

-to watch and everything is in Welsh.

-There are less children

-in our Sunday Schools.

-Fewer children

-are learning about Jesus...

-..so we must enter their world

-of the iPad and mobile phone.

-We hope to use this technology

-to spread the word about Jesus.

-Will you ask your mother

-to download the game?

-Yes!

-"Level Completed"

-I think everyone seemed happy

-with that new app.

-In the final part

-of today's the programme...

-..there's a taster

-of a brand-new song...

-..but a very popular Welsh duo.

-It's the father and son

-from Y Felinheli, Dylan and Neil.

-There's the Carmarthen School

-of Art fashion show.

-We also meet the best lollipop lady

-in Wales.

-I'll see you back here

-in a few minutes.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-Next, we visit Tregaron...

-..to meet Wales' best lollipop lady.

-Enjoy.

-Stop!

-The Heno cameras are in Tregaron.

-Tonight, we meet a local lady who

-has served this school for 25 years.

-She's won an award so let's hear

-about Miss Avril, the lollipop lady.

-# Lollipop, lollipop,

-oh lolli, lolli, lolli

-# Lollipop, lollipop,

-oh lolli, lolli, lolli

-# Lollipop

-# Lollipop, lollipop,

-oh lolli, lolli, lolli #

-When did you start this role?

-I started the job a fortnight

-before Christmas 25 years ago.

-Thank you, Miss Avril.

-My children were young so I could

-do the job and look after them.

-I went for it and got it.

-# Lollipop #

-Road Safety Wales

-asked us to nominate someone...

-..who had contributed

-to keeping the roads safe in Wales.

-We decided to nominate Avril

-as she's held her post for 25 years.

-It's an important job.

-We don't acknowledge this

-difficult job that's high-risk.

-You stand in the middle of the road

-to ensure the children are safe.

-Kylie asked

-if she could nominate me.

-I refused at first but eventually

-gave in but didn't expect to get it!

-I had a letter to say that I'd won

-and I was quite pleased.

-She's important

-as she's seen every day...

-..and is everyone's friend.

-Has the role changed at all

-in your time?

-The job is the same

-but there's more traffic.

-Some drivers are impatient

-but you put up with them.

-# Oh lolli, lolli, lolli #

-What do you learn to help someone

-cross the road safely?

-to both of their hearts.

-# At The Garddfon Inn #

-Dylan and Neil have written a song

-that refers to Y Felinheli.

-It's about this pub in front of us.

-I wrote the song a long time ago

-as we've spend lots of time there.

-That's where

-we got the idea for the song.

-Your new song doesn't mention

-the pub but the view from the pub.

-Yes, and I want free food

-for a year!

-I've been here for 40 years.

-It's a wonderful place to visit...

-..and the boats bring back memories.

-You mention a lot of places

-in the song.

-Will you take me on a tour

-of some of those sites?

-How could I refuse

-to take you for a walk?

-# Come to Y Felinheli

-where there are beautiful places

-# Views of the Menai

-and the summer carnival #

-After a few steps...

-..I realize Dylan

-is very popular in this village.

-Hello, Nerys.

-Are you ready for Friday's concert?

-Yes, I'm looking forward to it

-and to hearing the new song.

-I couldn't mention you in our

-new song but I will next time.

-The tickets are selling well.

-It's been great meeting you.

-Bye, Nerys.

-the high street is also in the song.

-Is anybody home?

-# Myfanwy will be cooking #

-This is Myfanwy who is one of

-the people I mention in the song.

-How does that feel, Myfanwy?

-How does that feel, Myfanwy?

-

-thanks to this song.

-# Remember to pop in

-to the cafe on the quay #

-is mentioned in the song.

-I feel as if I'm in Spain.

-I feel as if I'm in Spain.

-

-And we've got a cuppa.

-I come here as it feels like you're

-in Malibu and it's wonderful here.

-# Sometimes I think I'm in Malibu #

-The Dylan and Neil song

-is fantastic.

-It makes us feel part

-of the community.

-We listen to them on loop

-Next, we've got some fashion.

-A feast awaits us at a fashion show

-by the Carmarthen School of Art.

-The Carmarthen School of Art

-fashion course is world-famous...

-..for producing creative designers

-with fresh perspectives on fashion.

-My collection is based on my home

-and I was raised on a farm.

-My designs feature patterns of

-sheep earmarkings and weaving.

-It's a traditional look.

-I won a Miriam Briddon Scholarship

-and will buy a shed from the prize.

-I want to set up

-my own clothing-line.

-This year's show has moved

-to a completely new location.

-It's quite an unusual evening

-for you here at The Hangout.

-I'm looking forward to it.

-It's a great turn out

-and we've got plenty of staff.

-How did the graduates

-choose you as a venue?

-We advertised ourselves

-on social media...

-..to see who was interested.

-Every show requires

-a lot of organizing...

-..and the work backstage

-is incredibly important.

-What a fantastic evening, Helen.

-It's fantastic

-and I'm bursting with pride.

-The students

-have excelled themselves.

-It's great to see the fruits

-of their labour on the catwalk.

-They've worked hard for two years.

-I've watched them evolve

-and their work is special.

-It's the highlight of their course.

-You're graduating tonight

-and gained a fantastic result.

-Yes, I've had a 2:1.

-Are you delighted with that result?

-Yes, I'm over the moon

-and the hard work was worth it.

-Can I ask you a personal question?

-How do you cope when Hannah

-is 5ft 10" and you're 4ft 10"?

-I have no idea!

-They crouch for me

-and I use a step ladder.

-Without your help backstage,

-this show wouldn't happen.

-Thank you.

-Emyr Penlan and Beverley join me.

-You must be proud as two of your

-daughters are modelling tonight.

-I'm incredibly proud

-and they couldn't wait to do it.

-I'm bursting with pride

-and thanks for the opportunity.

-It's great to have fresh talent

-and both of them love fashion.

-Yes, the house is full of magazines

-but they're young girls after all.

-It's been a lovely evening.

-Yes, fantastic

-and everything looks great.

-It feels like

-we're in London or Paris.

-The work of the students is amazing.

-This is a strange experience

-for Julia.

-It's a fashion show

-but you're not a fashion designer.

-No, I studied textiles.

-You've designed the clothes

-and fabric here.

-Yes, I weaved the fabric

-and designed it myself.

-You've also been honoured.

-Yes, I won First Class Honours

-and a bursary with Wonderwool.

-I've received 1,000...

-..and a stall with Wonderwool

-in Builth next year.

-Tonight has been wonderful

-and Betsan has worked hard.

-She's worked day and night

-and this is a pinnacle for her.

-She found inspiration

-in our farm...

-..and what her forefathers wore.

-It's a special evening

-for the family.

-Many of the students have won

-scholarships and competitions...

-..therefore the future of fashion in

-Wales is in safe and creative hands.
