0:00:280:00:31

-On today's programme...

0:00:320:00:33

-..we hear more about the panto,

-O Mam Bach.

0:00:340:00:39

-Believe it or not,

-the entire cast are related.

0:00:390:00:43

-Oh yes, they are!

0:00:440:00:45

-We meet a new face

-from the sporting world...

0:00:450:00:49

-..who's set to make his mark

-in 2018.

0:00:490:00:53

-Alison Huw looks at food trends

-for 2018 in the Prynhawn Da kitchen.

0:00:530:00:58

-Huw focuses on 2018 fashion trends.

0:00:580:01:02

-We meet a gentleman

-called Mihil Patel.

0:01:030:01:06

-Three years ago,

-Mihil moved to Wales...

0:01:070:01:10

-..and now he can speak Welsh.

0:01:100:01:13

-Daf Wyn attends a Plygain service

-at a London-Welsh chapel.

0:01:130:01:18

-We also hear two songs.

0:01:180:01:21

-One from the new band, Gwilym...

0:01:210:01:23

-..and the second from the tenors,

-Rhys Meirion and Aled Wyn Davies.

0:01:240:01:27

-There's plenty coming your way

-between now and ten o'clock.

0:01:280:01:32

-Sit back and enjoy Bore Da.

0:01:320:01:35

-We start the programme

-in the pantomime world.

0:01:400:01:44

-The curtains have closed

-on Christmas pantos...

0:01:440:01:47

-..but last week,

-a special panto was staged...

0:01:480:01:51

-..at Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Glantaf.

0:01:510:01:54

-It was a panto

-for the entire family...

0:01:540:01:57

-..performed by one family.

0:01:570:02:00

-From the grandmother,

-grandfather, daughter...

0:02:000:02:04

-..grandsons, granddaughters

-and even the son-in-law.

0:02:040:02:08

-They were all a part of the panto,

-O Mam Bach.

0:02:080:02:12

-# I'm lying in my cosy bed

0:02:120:02:20

-# Desperate to go

-and see the world #

0:02:200:02:26

-We're raising money for the

-Cardiff Eisteddfod in the summer.

0:02:270:02:33

-We're not the type to host dinners

-so we decided to write a pantomime.

0:02:330:02:39

-# Oh, in my dream,

-I'll travel across the sea #

0:02:390:02:46

-I've been lucky with the cast.

0:02:460:02:48

-At first,

-it was a village pantomime...

0:02:480:02:52

-..but some couldn't

-attend rehearsals.

0:02:530:02:57

-Therefore,

-I've had to depend on my family.

0:02:570:03:00

-# Over the sea to the Caribbean #

0:03:000:03:03

-We're lucky to have

-so many grandchildren...

0:03:030:03:07

-..and they've all been willing

-to help their grandparents.

0:03:070:03:12

-A plan for the OMB camp!

0:03:130:03:16

-My mother is very persuasive.

0:03:160:03:20

-I'm sure that she could even sort

-everyone out at The United Nations!

0:03:200:03:25

-My grandmother

-is the boss of the pantomime.

0:03:250:03:29

-My grandfather thinks he's in charge

-but he isn't!

0:03:290:03:33

-Bills, bills, bills -

-I can't pay this.

0:03:330:03:36

-There's an incredible woman

-called Mam Bach.

0:03:360:03:40

-I am the boss!

0:03:410:03:42

-She runs a children's camp,

-similar to Llangrannog.

0:03:430:03:47

-Welcome to the O Mam Bach camp.

0:03:470:03:50

-Her camp is in financial difficulty.

0:03:500:03:53

-Mam Bach has to find a way

-to rescue the OMB camp.

0:03:530:03:57

-This is the second time

-we've staged a pantomime together.

0:03:580:04:02

-Once every ten years,

-I'm allowed to wear a dress.

0:04:020:04:06

-My character is the daughter

-of Mam Bach.

0:04:070:04:11

-She dreams of seeing the world

-and leaving the camp.

0:04:120:04:15

-However, she feels a duty to stay

-and help her mother.

0:04:160:04:19

-# I don't care

-if he looks like my grandfather #

0:04:200:04:26

-None of us have slept much

-over Christmas.

0:04:260:04:29

-We've been worrying about

-our lines, costumes and props.

0:04:290:04:33

-It's been difficult

-to learn the lines at my age.

0:04:340:04:37

-I've learnt my lines...

0:04:370:04:40

-..but I've struggled

-with the dance routines.

0:04:400:04:44

-The set was all made in our home

-two days ago.

0:04:450:04:49

-We've collected the materials like

-wood and paint from the community.

0:04:490:04:54

-It's cost us very little

-to erect this fantastic set.

0:04:540:04:59

-# I'll have to

-forget about myself for now #

0:04:590:05:06

-It's been great

-to work with the family.

0:05:070:05:10

-I can't wait to share a stage

-with them.

0:05:100:05:13

-The audience will be able

-to shout as much as they want.

0:05:130:05:18

-We've had lots of fun preparing...

0:05:180:05:23

-..and we hope the audience

-will enjoy.

0:05:230:05:27

-# Over the sea to the Caribbean

0:05:280:05:31

-# To do as I please #

0:05:320:05:40

-That was a great idea.

0:05:410:05:44

-During January, Heno will introduce

-us to some of the new faces...

0:05:440:05:49

-..that we should keep an eye out for

-during 2018.

0:05:490:05:53

-They include those who want to leave

-their mark on the sporting world.

0:05:530:05:58

-Ben Llewellin from Haverfordwest,

-Pembrokeshire is one of them.

0:05:580:06:03

-At the end of 2017, Haverfordwest's

-Ben Llewellin won a silver medal...

0:06:100:06:16

-..in the Clay Pigeon Shooting

-World Cup.

0:06:160:06:20

-He set a record by only missing

-one out of his 60 attempts.

0:06:210:06:25

-Ben's discipline

-is the Olympic Skeet.

0:06:250:06:29

-His targets travel at 60mph...

0:06:290:06:33

-..from eight sites in a semi-circle.

0:06:340:06:37

-Going to the World Cup Final in New

-Delhi was the height of the season.

0:06:400:06:45

-I went head-to-head

-with an Italian in the final...

0:06:450:06:49

-..which was close

-and great for the spectators.

0:06:490:06:52

-He just pipped me to the gold medal

-so I came away with a silver...

0:06:520:06:57

-..and then headed to Brisbane for

-the Commonwealth Game Test Event.

0:06:570:07:02

-I went all out and won one gold

-which is great.

0:07:020:07:05

-From a young age, you could see that

-he was going to be a world champion.

0:07:060:07:11

-He's a very level-headed lad...

0:07:110:07:15

-..and is representing Wales at the

-Commonwealth Games in Australia.

0:07:150:07:20

-Ben started shooting

-at a young age...

0:07:230:07:26

-..but Carmarthen's Aled Jones

-started later in life...

0:07:270:07:31

-..and competes in a different

-discipline - the National Skeet.

0:07:310:07:36

-I was 50 at the start of the year

-so bought a new gun...

0:07:370:07:41

-..and successfully made it

-into the Welsh team.

0:07:410:07:44

-I finished up in Ireland

-shooting for Wales.

0:07:450:07:48

-I hit 100 targets on the Friday

-which was a 100 straight...

0:07:490:07:55

-..and missed one of the 50 targets

-on Saturday so had 149 out of 150.

0:07:550:08:01

-It's a great score and is why your

-cap looks so sorry for itself!

0:08:010:08:07

-Yes, when you shoot 100 out of 100

-for the first time...

0:08:070:08:12

-..the whole Welsh team

-gets to shoot at your cap.

0:08:130:08:16

-That's what happened to my cap!

0:08:180:08:21

-Elis Jones from Ruthin...

0:08:230:08:25

-..is also making his name

-in shooting...

0:08:250:08:29

-..in another discipline.

0:08:290:08:32

-I shoot Down-The-Line so

-shoot five targets from five pegs.

0:08:330:08:38

-There's four rounds of 25.

0:08:380:08:41

-You've had a successful year.

0:08:420:08:44

-Yes, I've won many competitions

-throughout the year...

0:08:440:08:49

-..but winning the Wales Championship

-in Mid Wales was the highlight.

0:08:500:08:54

-I've been shooting for six years and

-in the Welsh team for five years...

0:08:560:09:00

-..and captained the team

-three times.

0:09:010:09:04

-Before we left,

-I had to give it a go.

0:09:060:09:08

-It's important to be safe so need

-safety glasses and ear protection.

0:09:080:09:14

-Oh, well done, you could be a

-candidate for the Welsh team.

0:09:200:09:24

-Do you think I have the potential?

0:09:240:09:25

-Do you think I have the potential?

-

-Yes, definitely!

0:09:250:09:27

-Thank you for your time

-and I've had a great day.

0:09:270:09:30

-I might have the potential but Ben

-is head and shoulders above me...

0:09:310:09:35

-..and 2018 promises to be

-a great year.

0:09:360:09:40

-We're all expecting him to come home

-with a medal from Australia.

0:09:400:09:45

-There's the Olympic Games in three

-years so he has a bright future.

0:09:470:09:52

-Good luck to Ben.

0:09:580:10:00

-He's got a special talent.

0:10:010:10:03

-Gwilym is another name we can

-expect to hear more often in 2018.

0:10:030:10:09

-It's the name of the latest band

-on the Welsh rock scene.

0:10:090:10:14

-Let's hear their performance

-of Llechan Lan.

0:10:140:10:18

-# Thank you

0:10:190:10:21

-# For teaching me how to be

0:10:240:10:29

-# Bring your rainbow to me

0:10:300:10:33

-# And don't let go

-but let it colour my journey

0:10:360:10:41

-# To see the world ahead

0:10:430:10:49

-# Absorbing light and blowing smoke

0:10:490:10:52

-# You're searching for an excuse,

-an excuse to be bad

0:10:540:10:59

-# We'll swim higher

-than the superficial eyes

0:11:000:11:05

-# Before drowning silently

-in the background

0:11:050:11:10

-# After playing with fire,

-you want a clean slate

0:12:140:12:21

-They sounded great.

0:12:240:12:27

-You can hear the song, Llechan Lan

-on Heno's YouTube channel.

0:12:270:12:33

-That's it for part one.

0:12:330:12:35

-After the break...

0:12:350:12:37

-..at the beginning of a new year...

0:12:370:12:40

-couldn't live without a diary.

-Welcome back.

0:13:020:13:04

-Do you keep a diary?

0:13:040:13:06

-I look at my diary every day...

0:13:070:13:10

-..to remind me of where

-I need to be and of any plans.

0:13:110:13:15

-But how popular are diaries

-these days?

0:13:150:13:19

-Daf Wyn has been to find out

-the answer.

0:13:190:13:22

-Big or small, colourful or plain...

0:13:280:13:32

-..a record of daily events, or

-a way of reminding you of things...

0:13:320:13:36

-..I'm sure most of us

-keep some sort of diary.

0:13:370:13:41

-I use a diary to write reminders

-of any daily and monthly events...

0:13:410:13:47

-..and I note this during breakfast.

0:13:470:13:50

-Today, I'm meeting people who keep

-diaries for many various reasons.

0:13:500:13:55

-How long have you kept a diary?

0:13:580:14:01

-It started when I was farming...

0:14:020:14:04

-..and I didn't keep one before then.

0:14:040:14:07

-In 1971, I had my first diary.

0:14:070:14:10

-I don't know why

-I started writing in a diary.

0:14:100:14:15

-I kept a record of stock

-and births...

0:14:150:14:19

-..and this filled the diary

-every day.

0:14:190:14:23

-It was handy to keep a diary

-when I had an accountant.

0:14:230:14:29

-The accountant would enquire

-about a cheque...

0:14:300:14:35

-..and I'd get the date and

-refer back to my diary.

0:14:350:14:41

-You've also noted

-when you purchased cars.

0:14:410:14:44

-And who I bought them from.

0:14:450:14:47

-Yes, your grandfather.

0:14:480:14:50

-And how many days

-it took to buy them.

0:14:500:14:53

-You tried to bag a bargain!

0:14:530:14:56

-I used to record the weather...

0:14:560:14:59

-..but nothing of relevance now.

0:14:590:15:04

-I'll write about your visit today.

0:15:040:15:07

-Yes, I'm in your diary!

0:15:070:15:11

-But not everyone

-is as detailed as Bert.

0:15:110:15:15

-Some use a diary to note what is set

-to come rather than what has been.

0:15:150:15:19

-I'm a freelance make-up artist.

0:15:200:15:22

-Some of my clients come to me

-but I will mostly travel to them.

0:15:220:15:26

-It's essential that I have a diary

-as I'd be totally lost without it.

0:15:260:15:31

-I've got to have it.

0:15:310:15:33

-Actually, Elin uses two diaries

-- a traditional and modern one.

0:15:330:15:39

-I take bookings via social media

-or messages on Facebook.

0:15:390:15:45

-I make a note of it in my phone

-if I haven't got my diary at hand.

0:15:450:15:49

-I go home to write it in my diary...

0:15:490:15:52

-..in case something happens

-to my phone.

0:15:520:15:56

-It goes straight from my phone

-into my diary just in case.

0:15:570:16:02

-In Carmarthen, that's all Miriam

-wanted for Christmas was a diary.

0:16:020:16:08

-When I opened the diary...

0:16:080:16:11

-..I was delighted.

0:16:110:16:14

-I went straight upstairs

-to start writing in it.

0:16:140:16:18

-I've noted family birthdays...

0:16:190:16:24

-..and also written some secrets.

0:16:240:16:29

-I've got a purple invisible pen.

0:16:290:16:35

-You can't see anything

-when you write with it.

0:16:350:16:39

-It comes with a light...

0:16:390:16:41

-..that shows what you've written.

0:16:420:16:46

-When someone tries to break

-into my diary...

0:16:460:16:50

-..they can't read my messages.

0:16:510:16:56

-I hope my diary is full

-by the end of the year.

0:16:570:17:01

-I couldn't live without my diary.

0:17:040:17:07

-It would be strange without it.

0:17:070:17:11

-My daily routine after breakfast

-is to write in my diary.

0:17:110:17:17

-If I don't write in it for a few

-days I tend to forget everything!

0:17:170:17:22

-It's fair to say I'd be lost

-without my diary.

0:17:280:17:33

-Next, we head to the

-Prynhawn Da kitchen...

0:17:340:17:37

-..to hear of the food and drinks

-trends for the coming year.

0:17:370:17:42

-There are many new trends for 2018.

0:17:420:17:45

-Many will be taking part

-in Dry January this month.

0:17:450:17:49

-Over 3 billion have signed up

-for Dry January.

0:17:490:17:53

-Young adults are turning their backs

-on alcohol and choosing soft drinks.

0:17:530:17:58

-This means there's a gap

-in the market.

0:17:580:18:01

-People don't want lemonade...

0:18:010:18:03

-..but sophisticated and

-interesting drinks.

0:18:040:18:09

-People are opting for

-trendy sodas and tonics.

0:18:090:18:12

-There's a wider choice available.

0:18:120:18:16

-They distil them

-in the same way as gin.

0:18:170:18:20

-Herbs and botanicals are used...

0:18:200:18:24

-..for different flavours.

0:18:240:18:27

-This is what we have here.

0:18:270:18:29

-This one contains vegetables...

0:18:290:18:33

-..from the Mediterranean Sea.

0:18:330:18:36

-We'll also be seeing a lot

-of non-alcoholic wines.

0:18:370:18:41

-This is nice.

0:18:410:18:43

-They also use the same vines

-as they use for wine.

0:18:430:18:47

-The challenge facing companies is

-that they produce bitter drinks...

0:18:470:18:52

-..that are interesting and

-not too sweet either.

0:18:520:18:55

-There's a gap in the market.

0:18:550:18:57

-The bottles are also nice.

-Serve them in a wine glass too.

0:19:000:19:04

-They taste better in a smart glass.

0:19:040:19:07

-Would you like to try this one?

0:19:070:19:08

-Would you like to try this one?

-

-Yes, please.

0:19:080:19:09

-They are also working

-on non-alcohol liqueurs.

0:19:100:19:14

-You would get the flavour

-of the gin...

0:19:140:19:18

-..but not the alcohol.

0:19:190:19:21

-Crisps are a popular snack.

0:19:220:19:24

-Potato crisps

-have always been popular.

0:19:250:19:28

-Non-potato crisps

-are set to become popular.

0:19:280:19:32

-More protein-based snacks

-are set to take over.

0:19:320:19:38

-We're seeing more snacks...

0:19:380:19:41

-..made from peas, quinoa,

-kale and lentils.

0:19:410:19:45

-You'll see more of these snacks

-in 2018.

0:19:460:19:51

-We've got some that are made

-from peas and lentils.

0:19:520:19:58

-They are low in calories too.

0:19:580:20:00

-Make sure you check

-the salt content.

0:20:000:20:04

-They're a great compliment

-to your beverage.

0:20:040:20:08

-These will be very fashionable.

0:20:080:20:11

-Daf needs food

-after all that exercising!

0:20:110:20:14

-Ingredients aren't the only things

-that are fashionable.

0:20:140:20:18

-Most of us enjoy three meals a day

-- breakfast, lunch and supper.

0:20:190:20:23

-Having a fourth meal in a day

-is tipped to be popular in 2018.

0:20:230:20:27

-A fourth meal isn't about gluttony

-but to fit in with our busy lives.

0:20:270:20:33

-People tend to eat supper late as

-they work later or been to the gym.

0:20:330:20:38

-We'll see more people turning

-towards this.

0:20:390:20:43

-It's a snack that's almost a meal.

0:20:430:20:45

-This is an example of a fourth meal.

0:20:450:20:49

-We've got bread, peanut butter,

-fruits, seeds and nuts.

0:20:490:20:53

-What we eat at different times

-of the day is also changing.

0:20:530:20:57

-People are swapping their lunch menu

-with their breakfast menu.

0:20:570:21:02

-We're turning to eggs-based dishes,

-omelettes and avocado on toast.

0:21:020:21:07

-More and more people...

0:21:070:21:09

-..are turning to kale,

-spinach and quinoa...

0:21:090:21:14

-..are eaten for breakfast now.

0:21:140:21:17

-People are eating porridge

-for supper.

0:21:170:21:21

-There seems to be an emphasis

-on eating more colourful foods.

0:21:210:21:27

-We should be eating the colours

-of the rainbow.

0:21:280:21:31

-Veganism is very popular.

0:21:310:21:32

-Veganism is very popular.

-

-We discussed that yesterday.

0:21:320:21:35

-There are more colourful foods

-available.

0:21:350:21:38

-On first glance,

-they are a lot healthier for us.

0:21:380:21:42

-As we're discussing colours,

-we need to turn to this bread.

0:21:420:21:46

-These are interesting.

0:21:460:21:48

-We've already seen

-colourful wraps...

0:21:490:21:51

-..but 2018 is the year

-of colourful bread.

0:21:520:21:55

-There's beetroot, spinach

-and carrot-based bread.

0:21:550:22:00

-Most supermarkets stock pre-packed

-sandwiches using vegetable breads.

0:22:010:22:06

-We are set to see loaves

-of vegetable bread in the shops.

0:22:060:22:10

-We'll be able to buy loaves

-of spinach bread.

0:22:100:22:15

-Keep your eyes peeled for them

-in the supermarkets.

0:22:160:22:20

-Vegetables breads

-will upgrade your sandwiches.

0:22:200:22:24

-We should not waste food.

0:22:240:22:28

-This is especially true

-for this year.

0:22:290:22:32

-We're now eating the vegetables as

-well as its root, skin and leaves.

0:22:320:22:37

-Don't peel, but wash them well.

0:22:370:22:40

-I haven't peeled the carrots,

-but roasted them...

0:22:400:22:43

-..and removed the leaves

-to create a pesto.

0:22:440:22:49

-You can use beetroot leaves

-in salad...

0:22:490:22:52

-..and use the skin

-of sweet potatoes.

0:22:520:22:55

-Broccoli stems are great...

0:22:550:22:58

-..but many people throw them away.

0:22:580:23:01

-I've recently started

-to eat it all.

0:23:020:23:06

-That's great and

-it tastes exactly the same.

0:23:070:23:11

-It adds extra crunch and you need

-to cook it for slightly longer.

0:23:110:23:15

-Take us through the final trend.

0:23:160:23:18

-Sales in coconut oil

-are set to soar this year.

0:23:180:23:23

-There's currently debate

-about how good it is.

0:23:230:23:27

-It's recommended that

-you eat it moderately.

0:23:270:23:31

-You shouldn't eat too much of it.

0:23:310:23:34

-There's been a lot of debate

-this week.

0:23:340:23:37

-It's tipped to be the

-year of the mango.

0:23:370:23:41

-It's my favourite fruit.

0:23:410:23:43

-It's my favourite fruit.

-

-And mine.

0:23:430:23:45

-They're fruit can be eaten fresh...

0:23:450:23:49

-..dried or in a juice form.

0:23:490:23:52

-It's time for you to go and make

-a quick cuppa during the break.

0:23:520:23:57

-In part three...

0:23:570:23:58

-..we meet Mihil Patel.

0:23:590:24:01

-He's learnt Welsh

-after moving from Bristol.

0:24:010:24:05

-We attend a Plygain service

-at Capel Jewin, London.

0:24:060:24:10

-Every week, Prynhawn Da

-invites a viewer to the studio...

0:24:250:24:29

-..to discuss the experiences

-that changed their life.

0:24:300:24:33

-This week, Mihil Patel from Bristol

-was the guest...

0:24:340:24:37

-..and his story

-was very inspirational.

0:24:370:24:41

-Mihil Patel

-moved to Cardiff three years ago.

0:24:420:24:46

-After meeting friends

-at the Tafwyl Festival...

0:24:460:24:49

-..he decided to start learning Welsh

-and it has changed his life.

0:24:500:24:54

-Welcome to the programme, Mihil.

0:24:540:24:57

-Why did you move from Bristol

-to Cardiff?

0:24:570:25:00

-I'd just started a PhD in virology

-and immunology in Cardiff.

0:25:010:25:06

-I didn't know anything

-about the language...

0:25:060:25:11

-..but noticed the bilingual signs on

-the roads and at the train station.

0:25:110:25:16

-I didn't know anyone

-who spoke Welsh.

0:25:160:25:20

-A friend of mine was working

-at the Tafwyl Festival.

0:25:200:25:25

-She invited me to the event...

0:25:250:25:30

-..and I discovered

-something wonderful.

0:25:300:25:34

-The Tafwyl Festival was inspiring

-and I decided to learn Welsh.

0:25:340:25:40

-What did you think of the language

-and the Tafwyl Festival?

0:25:410:25:47

-I saw all of the poetry,

-literature and music.

0:25:470:25:53

-I noticed that the language

-was very different to English.

0:25:530:25:58

-I met a lot of Welsh learners so

-thought that I could learn it too.

0:25:580:26:04

-Your method of learning was unusual

-as you taught yourself.

0:26:050:26:10

-How did you do it?

0:26:100:26:13

-I learnt on the website,

-www.saysomethinginwelsh.com

0:26:130:26:19

-It was perfect for me...

0:26:190:26:22

-..as I was working very long hours

-throughout the day...

0:26:220:26:28

-..which meant that

-I couldn't really attend classes...

0:26:280:26:33

-..as I didn't have two hours a week

-to spare.

0:26:330:26:37

-The app was easy to use

-and I could learn the language...

0:26:370:26:42

-..when I was cleaning, washing up

-or whilst working in the laboratory.

0:26:420:26:47

-It was easy because I would hear

-something and repeat it in Welsh.

0:26:480:26:54

-When did you feel confident enough

-to converse in Welsh?

0:26:540:26:58

-Do you remember

-that first conversation?

0:26:580:27:01

-I remember a time when I was working

-in the laboratory...

0:27:010:27:05

-..with a colleague from Carmarthen.

0:27:060:27:10

-I told her

-that I was learning Welsh.

0:27:100:27:14

-That was the first time

-I'd said anything.

0:27:140:27:18

-We always speak Welsh now.

0:27:190:27:23

-It has truly changed your life.

0:27:240:27:27

-When I moved to Cardiff...

0:27:270:27:29

-..I was part of a small team

-that reintroduced the Science Cafe.

0:27:290:27:33

-We would promote science in cafes,

-bars and other locations.

0:27:330:27:38

-I wanted to work with children

-in schools and in festivals.

0:27:390:27:44

-I volunteered at the

-Cheltenham Science Festival.

0:27:440:27:49

-After a year and a half

-of learning Welsh...

0:27:490:27:54

-..I volunteered

-for the Tafwyl Festival.

0:27:540:27:57

-For the past two years, I've been

-able to work in the science tent...

0:27:580:28:03

-..and teach young children

-about science.

0:28:030:28:06

-Scientific terminology

-is difficult in English and Welsh.

0:28:070:28:12

-Is it difficult for you to swap

-from one language to the next?

0:28:120:28:17

-I find it quite easy.

0:28:170:28:20

-I learn the words, terms

-and phrases that I need.

0:28:210:28:25

-I'm often speaking

-with young children...

0:28:250:28:28

-..so I only need

-simple words and terms.

0:28:290:28:32

-I don't need to use long

-and complicated sentences.

0:28:320:28:37

-You also work with children

-in schools across Wales.

0:28:370:28:41

-I'm part of a team...

0:28:420:28:44

-..that distributes the science quiz,

-Her Gwyddoniaeth Byw.

0:28:440:28:49

-The quiz was devised

-about five years ago.

0:28:490:28:52

-It was only originally

-for South-East Wales...

0:28:520:28:58

-..and it's a great quiz...

0:28:580:29:02

-..that gets the pupils

-involved in science.

0:29:020:29:06

-Children love competing.

0:29:060:29:09

-It's similar

-to University Challenge!

0:29:100:29:13

-After about two years...

0:29:130:29:16

-..I realized

-that I was good enough...

0:29:160:29:20

-..to distribute the quiz

-in both Welsh and English schools...

0:29:200:29:25

-..so I've taken the quiz

-to schools in North Wales.

0:29:260:29:29

-They were amazed

-at how I've learnt Welsh...

0:29:290:29:32

-..and I'm passionate

-about teaching them about science.

0:29:330:29:37

-Before moving to Cardiff, you didn't

-know anything about Wales...

0:29:370:29:42

-..but now understand our language

-and culture.

0:29:420:29:46

-You must see Wales

-in a different light.

0:29:460:29:49

-Yes, and there are

-two sides to Wales.

0:29:490:29:55

-There's one side

-which is quite Anglicized...

0:29:550:30:01

-..and a side that boasts

-the Welsh language.

0:30:010:30:06

-I can now appreciate

-its culture and heritage...

0:30:060:30:11

-..and understand the essence

-of the various parts in Wales.

0:30:120:30:16

-It's also helped me

-to appreciate language in general...

0:30:160:30:20

-..so I've just started

-learning Italian!

0:30:200:30:24

-This has given me the confidence

-to do that.

0:30:250:30:28

-I don't know where you get the time!

0:30:280:30:31

-I think you can learn any language.

0:30:310:30:35

-It isn't necessary to learn

-the language to a scholarly level...

0:30:350:30:41

-..but just that you're good enough

-to chat to people on the street.

0:30:410:30:47

-You've managed to learn the language

-in two years.

0:30:470:30:51

-It's been fantastic to speak

-with you and you're an inspiration!

0:30:510:30:56

-What a wonderful

-and inspirational chat.

0:30:570:31:01

-We're in the midst

-of Plygain season in Wales.

0:31:010:31:06

-Plygain is a religious service

-held by candlelight.

0:31:060:31:10

-However, Wales isn't the only place

-where Plygain is popular.

0:31:100:31:14

-There was a special Plygain service

-at Capel Jewin, London recently.

0:31:140:31:19

-Daf Wyn went to enjoy the singing.

0:31:190:31:23

-# O come, O come, Emmanuel #

0:31:230:31:29

-I always look forward to the Jewin

-Chapel Christmas Service in London.

0:31:290:31:35

-I missed it in 2017...

0:31:350:31:38

-..so am starting 2018

-with its Plygain service.

0:31:380:31:43

-The chapel was full...

0:31:460:31:48

-..as the candlelit Plygain

-of the London Welsh started.

0:31:490:31:53

-# Rejoice, rejoice

0:31:540:31:58

-# Emmanuel shall come to thee

0:31:580:32:04

-# O Israel #

0:32:040:32:09

-London hasn't had a tradition...

0:32:090:32:12

-..of Plygain services

-after Christmas...

0:32:120:32:16

-..so we created our own tradition.

0:32:170:32:19

-It was my idea to include

-Cerdd Dant, popular songs...

0:32:190:32:24

-..the old favourites...

0:32:240:32:27

-..and unfamiliar carols

-from the hymn book.

0:32:270:32:31

-# My betrothed, give me his name

-that I may address him #

0:32:320:32:38

-What brings you to this Plygain,

-Eirlys?

0:32:390:32:42

-I live in London...

0:32:430:32:45

-..so this is a great way

-to meet with Welsh speakers.

0:32:450:32:50

-It's a great way to close Christmas

-and start the new year.

0:32:500:32:55

-What are you doing tonight?

0:32:550:32:57

-I'm singing one piece...

0:32:570:33:00

-..and might sing a carol

-in the open part of tonight.

0:33:000:33:05

-# Amen to the Saviour

-and strongest Deliverer #

0:33:050:33:12

-It's lovely to come to the chapel

-and be with the London Welsh...

0:33:120:33:16

-..mingle with the choir and

-familiar faces.

0:33:170:33:20

-I'm here with Aelwyd Llundain.

0:33:200:33:23

-We're singing Deffrown, Deffrown

-and another hymn at the start.

0:33:230:33:27

-# The stars of the morn

-of the world sang

0:33:280:33:32

-# All the angels of God together #

0:33:320:33:38

-Plygain is a religious service where

-people perform sing and recite...

0:33:380:33:44

-..but it's still religious

-and isn't a concert.

0:33:440:33:47

-It's very different and

-includes prayers, Bible readings...

0:33:480:33:53

-..and the singing

-of old Welsh carols.

0:33:530:33:56

-When you're away from home, you take

-every opportunity to speak Welsh...

0:33:560:34:01

-..hear Welsh songs and celebrate

-festivals such as Christmas.

0:34:010:34:06

-It was an honour to join

-the Aelwyd Llundain choir...

0:34:060:34:11

-..and sing tonight.

0:34:110:34:13

-A lot of us go home to Wales

-or to other places...

0:34:140:34:19

-..to celebrate Christmas.

0:34:190:34:21

-By this time,

-we're back in London.

0:34:210:34:24

-The London Welsh were united tonight

-and enjoyed being with friends.

0:34:240:34:30

-Tradition goes that the last part of

-the service is by the congregation.

0:34:300:34:35

-Nine brave people

-volunteered to entertain.

0:34:350:34:39

-# Born this night, Mary's child #

0:34:390:34:46

-It was great that people

-could go up...

0:34:460:34:50

-..and sing their choice

-of traditional Plygain songs.

0:34:500:34:55

-You were very eager to sing.

0:34:550:34:58

-Yes, I wanted to get it over!

0:34:580:35:01

-# Born in a unfamiliar place #

0:35:010:35:06

-We restarted as we had

-the wrong pitch...

0:35:070:35:10

-..and then went out of tune.

0:35:100:35:13

-It wasn't that bad.

0:35:140:35:16

-Did you enjoy the night?

0:35:160:35:19

-Yes, the Plygain is special and it's

-great to see everyone in London.

0:35:190:35:25

-It's a tradition in Wales

-so it's lovely to do it in London.

0:35:250:35:31

-As a Welshman in London,

-I get excited about the Plygain...

0:35:310:35:36

-..because there's

-a wonderful atmosphere.

0:35:360:35:41

-We welcome Welsh speakers

-and non-Welsh speakers.

0:35:410:35:46

-The Plygain is a wonderful way

-to greet the New year.

0:35:470:35:51

-# And we will all work in his name #

0:35:510:36:01

-That was lovely.

0:36:030:36:05

-It's time for another break.

0:36:050:36:08

-In the final part...

0:36:080:36:10

-..Huw Rees discusses the

-fashion trends for the year ahead.

0:36:100:36:14

-We meet two people...

0:36:150:36:17

-..who between them,

-have given blood over 150 times.

0:36:180:36:22

-And Rhys Meirion and Aled Wyn Davies

-will entertain us with a song.

0:36:220:36:28

-the food trends for 2018...

0:36:430:36:47

-..and it's time to hear

-the fashion trends for the year.

0:36:470:36:51

-Huw Rees has all the advice we need.

0:36:510:36:55

-This jacket

-is great for every season...

0:36:550:37:00

-..and can be worn this season

-with layers underneath.

0:37:000:37:04

-I've tried to create

-a capsule wardrobe for today.

0:37:040:37:07

-This is a black crepe jacket

-that can be layered.

0:37:070:37:13

-You could wear a coat

-over it during the winter.

0:37:130:37:17

-This will be suitable

-in the summer...

0:37:170:37:20

-..with a pair of black jeans,

-white t-shirt and trainers.

0:37:210:37:27

-Nowadays, our summers

-are much shorter and colder.

0:37:270:37:32

-We tend to wear the same clothes

-throughout the year now.

0:37:330:37:36

-The Spaniards and Italians

-have been doing the same for years.

0:37:370:37:41

-They wear the same type of clothes

-throughout the year.

0:37:410:37:45

-Next, we turn to the cardigan.

0:37:450:37:47

-A lot of people enjoy wearing

-cardigans in summer and winter.

0:37:480:37:53

-A thicker cardigan is usually worn

-in the winter.

0:37:530:37:57

-The shape and colour

-of this cardigan is great.

0:37:570:38:00

-You can wear it

-with other layers too.

0:38:010:38:05

-I've chosen a green colour that

-would look great in every season.

0:38:050:38:09

-Natural colours like this nature

-green are always around.

0:38:100:38:14

-I haven't opted for a seasonal

-colour like bright orange.

0:38:140:38:20

-This cardigan wouldn't look out

-of place with a white linen dress.

0:38:200:38:26

-Under the cardigan,

-we have a t-shirt.

0:38:260:38:29

-When buying a t-shirt

-for your capsule wardrobe...

0:38:290:38:33

-..in a black or white colour...

0:38:340:38:37

-..choose one

-with a three-quarter sleeve.

0:38:380:38:42

-It's great for the winter

-as it will keep you warm...

0:38:420:38:45

-..and in the summer,

-the sleeves can be pushed up.

0:38:460:38:50

-We've dressed this look with jeans

-for the winter.

0:38:510:38:55

-You could wear a floral skirt

-with a t-shirt in the summer...

0:38:550:39:01

-..or a thick polo neck jumper

-in the winter.

0:39:010:39:05

-You could team them with black

-jeans, trousers or a skirt...

0:39:050:39:10

-..it depends on preference.

0:39:100:39:13

-These white shoes

-can transform a look.

0:39:140:39:17

-Let's remove the coat and cardigan.

0:39:180:39:20

-You can see

-the three-quarter sleeve.

0:39:210:39:24

-I still can't find a way to remove

-the clothes carefully.

0:39:240:39:29

-You usually give them to me.

0:39:290:39:31

-The next item of clothing is a coat.

0:39:310:39:34

-A gilet is always useful.

0:39:340:39:36

-Make sure you opt

-for a colourful one.

0:39:360:39:39

-A dark colour will be too heavy

-for the summer.

0:39:390:39:43

-You could go for any colour gilet

-in this shape.

0:39:430:39:46

-This is a light fashionable gilet.

0:39:470:39:50

-Some people may want to go

-for a technical gilet...

0:39:500:39:55

-..with special feathers.

0:39:550:39:59

-This is the time to opt

-for a cheaper gilet.

0:39:590:40:02

-A cheap gilet is perfect

-to wear under a coat or jacket.

0:40:020:40:07

-This one will work well

-if you're going for a walk.

0:40:070:40:12

-You could wear it with a

-dress, t-shirt or blouse.

0:40:120:40:16

-This colour will match everything.

0:40:160:40:19

-You could roll it up and

-keep in it a bag.

0:40:200:40:22

-Since losing weight,

-I've purchased one of these.

0:40:230:40:26

-They do tend

-to make you look bigger.

0:40:270:40:32

-A denim jacket is essential.

0:40:320:40:35

-The viewers will be fed up with me

-showing denim jackets.

0:40:350:40:41

-You should choose a dark denim.

0:40:410:40:43

-It will look great in the winter

-and summer.

0:40:430:40:46

-This would look great

-during January...

0:40:470:40:50

-..with a polo neck, dark jeans

-and brogues.

0:40:500:40:56

-It will also look great

-with a light summer dress.

0:40:560:41:02

-It doesn't mean that you can't wear

-the light dress now.

0:41:020:41:06

-Today's aim is to make every piece

-of clothing work together.

0:41:060:41:10

-Finally, let's look at patterns.

0:41:110:41:13

-I need Nia to remove the jacket.

0:41:130:41:16

-This is a pattern

-that's in the shops at the moment.

0:41:160:41:21

-This is a winter pattern.

0:41:220:41:23

-For the summer...

0:41:240:41:27

-..you can turn this into a floral

-outfit with some accessories.

0:41:270:41:33

-A yellow bag will lift the look.

0:41:340:41:38

-White jeans, skirt and top

-will look great with the florals.

0:41:380:41:43

-That one piece of clothing can

-work for many different looks.

0:41:430:41:47

-Make sure you get plenty

-for your pound per wear.

0:41:470:41:52

-Thank you for those wonderful ideas.

0:41:520:41:56

-Thank you, Huw.

0:41:560:41:59

-Last June...

0:41:590:42:01

-..Heno sent Elin Fflur to meet

-Olga Thomas of Caernarfon.

0:42:020:42:08

-It was World Blood Donor Day...

0:42:080:42:11

-..and Olga had given blood

-over 70 times.

0:42:110:42:16

-She wanted to give blood

-more times than her age.

0:42:160:42:21

-Last Tuesday,

-that's exactly what Olga did...

0:42:210:42:24

-..and the Heno cameras were there

-to congratulate her.

0:42:240:42:28

-We're at Caernarfon's Celtic Royal

-Hotel where people are giving blood.

0:42:330:42:39

-It's a special day...

0:42:390:42:42

-..as Olga Thomas is donating

-for the 75th time today.

0:42:420:42:46

-She's being followed by John

-who is donating for the 100th time.

0:42:460:42:53

-It's wonderful

-that they have kept coming back...

0:42:530:42:57

-..and are supporting us

-and those who need blood.

0:42:570:43:01

-I'm told I've reached a milestone...

0:43:010:43:04

-..and have given blood

-75 times today.

0:43:050:43:08

-It's wonderful to be able to help.

0:43:080:43:12

-I had a phone call to say that

-the numbers had doubled in Bangor...

0:43:120:43:18

-..and they now need two blood giving

-sessions after that Heno in June.

0:43:180:43:24

-I'm giving blood for the 100th time

-and have given since the 1970s.

0:43:260:43:32

-You could only donate twice a year

-in the 1970s.

0:43:320:43:35

-It's been increased to three times

-a year and I haven't missed one.

0:43:360:43:40

-I'm delighted to do it

-to help others.

0:43:400:43:43

-Olga and John

-have donated so many times...

0:43:450:43:48

-..so we're having a party

-and a cake...

0:43:480:43:51

-..to thank them for coming to us.

0:43:510:43:55

-Thank you so much for giving blood

-so many times.

0:43:550:43:58

-John has a badge for 100 donations

-and Olga has one for 75.

0:43:580:44:03

-Giving blood is so important.

0:44:040:44:07

-It's a pleasure

-to be able to do it...

0:44:070:44:12

-..and I'd encourage everyone

-to give.

0:44:130:44:16

-Congratulations to Olga and John.

0:44:200:44:24

-We end the programme in the

-company of two famous tenors...

0:44:240:44:29

-..Rhys Meirion and Aled Wyn Davies.

0:44:300:44:32

-We hope you enjoy the song,

-Y Ddau Wladgarwr.

0:44:320:44:36

-# Oh!

0:47:160:47:21

-# Fair Wales #

0:47:210:47:29

-That was great.

0:47:300:47:32

-That's all we have time for today.

0:47:330:47:35

-The first programme of 2018

-has come to an end.

0:47:350:47:38

-I'll be back

-the same time next week.

0:47:390:47:42

-Until then, we hope you enjoy the

-rest of your weekend and next week.

0:47:420:47:47
