-The Welsh language community in -Wrexham is dotted around the area... | 0:03:50 | 0:03:55 | |

-Yes, it's real -and isn't a flat pack. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
-It's a proper Mari Lwyd as I've -given her eyes, bells and headdress. | 0:04:56 | 0:05:01 | |
-This is an ancient tradition. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
-It's interesting because -people are unsure of its origin. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:08 | |
-No, I don't think anybody -is entirely sure... | 0:05:08 | 0:05:12 | |
-..of the origin -and the reason behind this custom. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
-Other countries and areas -have similar traditions. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:20 | |
-Lynn is helping Mair -and the Mari Lwyd. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
-Yes, that's right. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
-It's brilliant. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:27 | |
-Lynn came to the Mari Lwyd evening -two years ago. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
-Yes, it was two years ago. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:32 | |
-At that time, Lynn could only speak -a tiny bit of Welsh. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
-It's very interesting. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:38 | |
-I didn't know anything about this -when I was in school... | 0:05:38 | 0:05:42 | |

-The fashion and design industry -is extremely competitive... | 0:06:49 | 0:06:55 | |
-..so when you receive an email -from Vogue magazine... | 0:06:55 | 0:06:59 | |
-..you know you've made it! | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
-Tell us about Vogue. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:07 | |
-I was quite a shock and I thought -the email was just a joke! | 0:07:07 | 0:07:12 | |
-It's just overwhelming. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
-I read the magazine and it features -designers from Milan and Paris... | 0:07:15 | 0:07:20 | |
-..and now Llandovery -so I'm the only Welsh one! | 0:07:20 | 0:07:23 | |
-We're absolutely delighted that Lian -has had this amazing opportunity... | 0:07:29 | 0:07:34 | |
-..to have her work shown in Vogue. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
-We're a small college in Wales. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
-To be up there with the big guys -in London is fantastic. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:43 | |
-The fashion industry is expensive... | 0:07:43 | 0:07:46 | |
-..but Lian benefitted from the -Beacon Bursary to develop her label. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:52 | |
-Lian won the first prize of 3,000. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |

-We've been running this bursary -for seven years. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:05 | |
-The final was held in July. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:09 | |
-Lian's business plan -really stood out. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:14 | |
-She also has -an incredible talent for fashion. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:19 | |

-# Lollipop ice, cinnamon bars -and a cheep-a-cheep kiss from me # | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
-Tell me about this creative outfit. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:38 | |
-I was inspired -by the Welsh countryside. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:42 | |
-I love where I live -as there's so much inspiration. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:46 | |
-The laser cut details have come -from shapes in my drawings. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:51 | |
-Laser cutting is the technique used -to create these patterns. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:57 | |
-Yes, the technique allows you -to create intricate details... | 0:08:57 | 0:09:02 | |
-..that cannot be made -with a scissors. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
-The laser burns through a fabric -like polyester and the edges melt. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:11 | |
-It means the fabric doesn't fray. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
-You decided to change college -after you returned to Wales. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:19 | |
-Did you base your decision -on the college's laser machine? | 0:09:19 | 0:09:25 | |
-Yes, it sold the college to me! | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
-You mentioned your love for Wales -and how it inspires your work... | 0:09:32 | 0:09:38 | |
-..but is it practical for a designer -to live in Llandovery? | 0:09:38 | 0:09:42 | |
-All my work can be found online -and is sold through a website. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:47 | |
-Jayne Pierson is a designer who -lives in Llanelli and is doing well. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:53 | |
-We always see her at London Fashion -Week and she works in Burry Port. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:59 | |
-You can do it if you work hard. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:01 | |
-This is my new collection that was -inspired by my graduation pieces. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:10 | |
-It's my ready-to-wear collection -so it isn't too dramatic. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:15 | |
-There are still details -that are typical of your work. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:19 | |
-There are small details -like the laser cut belt loops. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:24 | |
-I wanted the details to be subtle. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:29 | |
-As a member of staff at the -West Wales School of the Arts... | 0:10:30 | 0:10:34 | |
-..I work closely -with the fashion department. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:38 | |
-It's fantastic to see one of -our students winning the bursary. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:43 | |
-Vogue is a name -that is synonymous with fashion. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:49 | |
-The fact her work is being -featured in Vogue magazine... | 0:10:49 | 0:10:53 | |
-..is truly incredible. | 0:10:53 | 0:10:55 | |
-# And a cheep-a-cheep kiss from me # | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
-We leave fashion design -for hairstyling... | 0:10:58 | 0:11:02 | |
-..and the stylist, Dafydd Rhys -has some useful tips for us. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:06 | |
-One of the most common questions -is about making your hair shine. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:13 | |
-Everyone loves shiny hair. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:16 | |
-It makes the hair look healthy -and also boosts your complexion. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:22 | |
-One of my best tips is to -spray the hair with cold water... | 0:11:22 | 0:11:26 | |
-..after using a shampoo -and conditioner. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:29 | |
-Cold water gives you -smooth hair cuticles... | 0:11:29 | 0:11:32 | |
-..and helps the hair -to reflect the light. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:37 | |
-You will also need a conditioner... | 0:11:38 | 0:11:41 | |
-..but it can be -too heavy for fine hair. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:45 | |
-One tip is to use the conditioner -before applying the shampoo. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:50 | |
-I'm sure you've noticed -that stylists like to cheat. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:55 | |
-You can get a perfect blow dry by -drying the hair away from the face. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:59 | |
-Use straighteners to polish -and add shine to the hair tips... | 0:11:59 | 0:12:04 | |
-..turning it to the face -to retain the volume and shine. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:10 | |
-In a matter of minutes, -Nan is ready for her night out! | 0:12:12 | 0:12:17 | |
-That was some very useful advice. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:22 | |
-That's all for now but in -the second part of the programme... | 0:12:22 | 0:12:26 | |
-..Rhodri Gomer meets the darts -player from Cardigan, Jamie Lewis. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:32 | |
-Yvonne meets a lady who has turned -recycling into a full-time job. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:38 | |
-We also meet a lady -from the Nantlle Valley... | 0:12:39 | 0:12:43 | |
-..who breeds bull terriers. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |

-..I'm sure you've heard -about Jamie Lewis. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:09 | |
-Between Christmas and New Year... | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |

-..or the Professional -Darts Corporation since 2011. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:36 | |
-However, 2017 wasn't a year -to remember for Jamie... | 0:13:37 | 0:13:41 | |
-..until he reached -the World Championship... | 0:13:41 | 0:13:44 | |
-..at Alexandra Palace -over Christmas. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:48 | |
-It hadn't been a great season... | 0:13:48 | 0:13:50 | |

-I qualified and the rest is history. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:59 | |
-I had to play a guy from Belgium -in the prelims. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
-I won and had to play again that day -against my friend, Jonny Clayton. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:08 | |
-Is it difficult to play -against a close friend? | 0:14:08 | 0:14:11 | |
-It is tough because you have -to get into the zone for a match... | 0:14:11 | 0:14:16 | |
-..but when you're playing -against a friend... | 0:14:16 | 0:14:20 | |
-..it can be difficult because -you know each other so well. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:24 | |
-We had to be professional -as we were both there to do a job. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:29 | |
-I was lucky to have played well -on the day... | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
-..whilst Jonny wasn't at his best. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:36 | |
-From the first time he picked up -a dart, you could see it. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:40 | |
-Obviously, -things have changed with him. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
-He didn't play at the full distance -but would throw at the full height. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:48 | |
-He'd get up on a chair -to pick his darts up. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
-He enjoyed playing -and it was good for his school work. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:57 | |
-His maths was getting better -and he was always top of the class. | 0:14:57 | 0:15:01 | |
-He has been good from the start. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:03 | |
-James Richardson and Darren Webster -were the next players... | 0:15:04 | 0:15:08 | |
-..to lose to the Fireball -from Cardigan. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:11 | |
-In the semi-final, -he faced a true enigma... | 0:15:11 | 0:15:15 | |
-..in the form -of the 16-times World Champion... | 0:15:15 | 0:15:19 | |
-..Phil 'The Power' Taylor. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
-He's the only person -I haven't beaten. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
-I stand behind him -and watch him throwing... | 0:15:25 | 0:15:28 | |
-..and he has an aura about him. | 0:15:28 | 0:15:31 | |
-I've played against the likes -of van Gerwen and Gary Anderson... | 0:15:31 | 0:15:35 | |
-..and always thought I could win... | 0:15:36 | 0:15:38 | |
-..but facing a 16-times -World Champion went to my head! | 0:15:38 | 0:15:44 | |
-I lost because I was playing his -reputation rather than the board... | 0:15:44 | 0:15:49 | |
-..and because I'd put myself -under added pressure. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:54 | |
-Do you get nervous for him... | 0:15:54 | 0:15:56 | |
-..when he plays against -the likes of Phil Taylor? | 0:15:56 | 0:16:00 | |
-Yes, I get very nervous. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:03 | |
-There are times when I can't breathe -and struggle to watch him... | 0:16:03 | 0:16:08 | |
-..but we just keeping going... | 0:16:08 | 0:16:12 | |
-..and hope that he'll play well -like he did this time. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:16 | |
-We all know that he can do it... | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
-..but he needs to prove his talent -on the world stage. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:24 | |
-We're proud of him. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:26 | |

-..and I want to keep that going. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:56 | |
-What inspires you today? | 0:17:56 | 0:17:58 | |
-I'm really angry -with this throw-away society... | 0:17:58 | 0:18:03 | |
-..when people throw things away -as they have gone out of fashion. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:08 | |
-It takes a lot energy to recycle... | 0:18:08 | 0:18:12 | |

-..and create something lovely -that people enjoy. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:26 | |

-I cycled so much -that I'd got holes in my trousers... | 0:18:41 | 0:18:45 | |
-..so I cut off the legs -and added frills to cover the holes. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:50 | |
-A friend liked it -and asked me to make one for her... | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
-..and that's how it started. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
-I've made bags, jewellery -and smaller pieces. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:02 | |

-I'm also inspired by Welsh music and -the songs of Gwibdaith Hen Fran... | 0:19:15 | 0:19:20 | |
-..and I've made a picture -of the tower at Llanfrothen. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:25 | |
-There's a crow flying overhead -with Snowdonia in the background. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:31 | |
-Your stall looks lovely so -what are you making at the moment? | 0:19:35 | 0:19:41 | |
-I've just finished a fox -that could sit on a pocket... | 0:19:41 | 0:19:47 | |
-..or a patch on a bag -or anything the customer wants. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:51 | |
-I'm sure this fox will find a home -in the coming weeks. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:56 | |

-Welcome back. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:23 | |
-A vegan diet is when you -do not eat meat or dairy products. | 0:25:23 | 0:25:29 | |
-Many experts believe that this diet -is incredibly beneficial. | 0:25:29 | 0:25:33 | |
-Sarah Philpott can tell us more. | 0:25:34 | 0:25:36 | |
-Being a vegan -is similar to being a vegetarian.... | 0:25:38 | 0:25:41 | |
-..but you don't eat cheese, -any dairy product, eggs or honey. | 0:25:41 | 0:25:47 | |
-You eat things that are not -animal-derived ingredients... | 0:25:47 | 0:25:52 | |
-..so you eat a lot -of vegetables, seeds and grains. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:56 | |
-There's a lot of unusual foods. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
-All of it is natural produce. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
-All of it is natural produce. - -Yes, exactly. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:03 | |
-When did you become a vegan? | 0:26:03 | 0:26:05 | |
-It was about two -or two and a half years ago. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:09 | |
-Was there a catalyst -to your decision? | 0:26:09 | 0:26:12 | |
-I'd turned 30 -and felt that I wanted to change. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:17 | |
-Veganism was growing -in popularity... | 0:26:17 | 0:26:20 | |
-..so I thought I'd try -something different... | 0:26:20 | 0:26:23 | |
-..that was less cruel to animals -and healthy too. | 0:26:23 | 0:26:28 | |
-Is there anything you miss? | 0:26:28 | 0:26:31 | |
-Do you miss meat? | 0:26:31 | 0:26:32 | |
-I'm so stuck in my ways -that I think I would miss the meat. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:38 | |
-I don't miss meat -and occasionally miss cheese. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:41 | |
-I really miss having fish -and seafood... | 0:26:41 | 0:26:45 | |
-..because they are good for you -and have a lot of flavour... | 0:26:45 | 0:26:50 | |
-..but there's plenty of foods -in a vegan diet that you can enjoy. | 0:26:50 | 0:26:54 | |
-You have to weigh it up... | 0:26:55 | 0:26:57 | |
-..and ensure you get -all the proper nutrients. | 0:26:57 | 0:27:01 | |
-Yes, and you can get the required -nutrients in a vegan diet... | 0:27:01 | 0:27:07 | |
-..apart from vitamin B12... | 0:27:08 | 0:27:10 | |
-..but I just take supplements -for that. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
-The rest -is all about being cautious. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:15 | |
-In the past, it was quite difficult -to be a vegan... | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |
-..but the situation has improved -and the provision of food is better. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:24 | |
-Yes, and even the chain restaurants -such as Pizza Express and Nando's... | 0:27:24 | 0:27:29 | |
-..offer a vegan menu. | 0:27:29 | 0:27:32 | |
-If you want to cut down -on your meat intake... | 0:27:32 | 0:27:35 | |
-..or try a vegan diet -then it's easy to do that. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:39 | |

-Mushrooms are full of protein -and there's lentils and chickpeas. | 0:27:57 | 0:28:02 | |

-These are items -we have in our cupboards. | 0:28:08 | 0:28:11 | |
-Yes, so it's just about -building up your stock of food. | 0:28:11 | 0:28:15 | |

-My favourite is oat milk. | 0:29:25 | 0:29:27 | |
-It's very creamy -and delicious in porridge... | 0:29:28 | 0:29:32 | |
-..and in sauces too. | 0:29:32 | 0:29:34 | |
-This is great for a white sauce. | 0:29:34 | 0:29:38 | |

-Welcome back. | 0:37:12 | 0:37:14 | |
-Next Thursday, we celebrate the -patron saint of lovers in Wales... | 0:37:14 | 0:37:18 | |
-..or St Dwynwen. | 0:37:19 | 0:37:20 | |
-It's the day when we're all meant -to spoil our lovers... | 0:37:20 | 0:37:24 | |
-..but how many of us -know the story of Dwynwen? | 0:37:24 | 0:37:28 | |
-Who was she... | 0:37:28 | 0:37:30 | |
-..and what is so special -about Llanddwyn Island on Anglesey? | 0:37:30 | 0:37:34 | |
-I've got all the answers for you. | 0:37:34 | 0:37:37 | |
-Llanddwyn Island on Anglesey -is a magical location... | 0:37:47 | 0:37:52 | |
-..with its golden sands, -strong rocks... | 0:37:52 | 0:37:55 | |
-..and views of Snowdonia -and the Lleyn Peninsula. | 0:37:55 | 0:37:59 | |
-It's no wonder that Dwynwen -escaped here many centuries ago. | 0:37:59 | 0:38:04 | |
-Her story was brought to life... | 0:38:05 | 0:38:08 | |
-..as I roamed the island on a cold -winter morning with Gerallt Pennant. | 0:38:08 | 0:38:13 | |
-Just like many -of the saint's tales... | 0:38:13 | 0:38:16 | |
-..this story dates back -to the sixth century. | 0:38:16 | 0:38:19 | |
-This is where the story ends. | 0:38:20 | 0:38:22 | |
-It starts when Dwynwen -and Maelon Dafodrill fall in love. | 0:38:22 | 0:38:27 | |
-The story differs -depending on the version you read. | 0:38:27 | 0:38:32 | |
-Some say Maelon wanted to sleep with -Dwynwen before they were married. | 0:38:32 | 0:38:37 | |
-She didn't find that acceptable -and refused. | 0:38:38 | 0:38:41 | |
-His advances continued -and it broke her heart. | 0:38:41 | 0:38:44 | |
-She took to the water -and discovered Llanddwyn Island... | 0:38:44 | 0:38:49 | |
-..founded a retreat... | 0:38:49 | 0:38:51 | |
-..where she remained and -meditated until the end of her life. | 0:38:51 | 0:38:56 | |
-Ever since that time, -Welsh lovers have come here... | 0:38:56 | 0:39:00 | |
-..to pray and express their love -for each other. | 0:39:00 | 0:39:04 | |
-That's how Llanddwyn -became so important to lovers. | 0:39:04 | 0:39:08 | |
-You can find traces of Dwynwen's -existence all over the island. | 0:39:08 | 0:39:14 | |
-Lovers continue to go -on a pilgrimage to the island. | 0:39:14 | 0:39:18 | |
-The remains of the church suggest -this was the site of a monastery. | 0:39:20 | 0:39:25 | |
-In the sixth century, Dwynwen's -story became more popular... | 0:39:25 | 0:39:30 | |
-..and people came here -on a pilgrimage | 0:39:30 | 0:39:33 | |
-Visitors left offerings so the area -became wealthy and built a church. | 0:39:33 | 0:39:38 | |
-There's a well in the church -and another in the rocks. | 0:39:38 | 0:39:42 | |
-It's thought that if two lovers -look into the well together... | 0:39:42 | 0:39:47 | |
-..the direction at which -the eels are swimming... | 0:39:47 | 0:39:51 | |
-..depicts the path of the romance -of the pair gazing into the water. | 0:39:51 | 0:39:56 | |
-Love is alive and well -on the island of Llanddwyn all year. | 0:40:00 | 0:40:06 | |
-It's one of the most popular sites -to get engaged in North Wales... | 0:40:06 | 0:40:12 | |
-..if not the whole of Wales! | 0:40:12 | 0:40:15 | |
-I know of a few couples -who have got engaged on the island. | 0:40:15 | 0:40:19 | |
-It's too cold today... | 0:40:20 | 0:40:21 | |
-..but I'm sure it's ideal for lovers -on a sunny, spring day. | 0:40:21 | 0:40:26 | |
-Many relationships have started -and developed on Llanddwyn Island. | 0:40:26 | 0:40:31 | |
-Long may that continue! | 0:40:31 | 0:40:33 | |

-I've got enough time -to jump in the car, drive home... | 0:40:44 | 0:40:48 | |
-..and spend the afternoon -with my wife. | 0:40:48 | 0:40:51 | |
-Where can I get flowers? | 0:40:51 | 0:40:52 | |
-Do they sell flowers on the A470? | 0:40:53 | 0:40:56 | |
-Don't forget about St Dwynwen's Day -on Thursday or you'll be in trouble! | 0:41:00 | 0:41:06 | |
-We're still at the start -of a brand-new year... | 0:41:06 | 0:41:10 | |
-..and we continue to meet -those new faces... | 0:41:10 | 0:41:13 | |
-..who will leave their mark on sport -in Wales and further afield. | 0:41:13 | 0:41:18 | |
-Today, Rhodri Gomer -hears about a lesser-known sport. | 0:41:18 | 0:41:23 | |
-It's a cold -and miserable winter's night... | 0:41:28 | 0:41:31 | |
-..at the Pontargothi Village Hall. | 0:41:31 | 0:41:34 | |
-This might not be -the sort of place... | 0:41:35 | 0:41:37 | |
-..you'd expect to find -two world champions in training... | 0:41:37 | 0:41:41 | |
-..but world champions -in which sport? | 0:41:41 | 0:41:44 | |
-The answer is short mat bowls. | 0:41:51 | 0:41:54 | |
-It's played -by thousands of people... | 0:41:54 | 0:41:57 | |
-..in halls all over the country. | 0:41:57 | 0:42:00 | |
-The game started in Wales -in the early 1990s or thereabouts. | 0:42:03 | 0:42:08 | |
-Today, the sport is popular -all over the country. | 0:42:09 | 0:42:14 | |
-Short mat bowls is the same as lawn -bowls played outdoors or indoors... | 0:42:14 | 0:42:19 | |
-..but it has been adapted -to allow us to play in halls. | 0:42:19 | 0:42:23 | |
-The mats are only 45-foot-long. | 0:42:23 | 0:42:26 | |
-The main difference is the block -in the centre... | 0:42:27 | 0:42:30 | |
-..that the bowls must swerve passed. | 0:42:30 | 0:42:33 | |
-Two brothers -who are conquering the halls... | 0:42:33 | 0:42:37 | |
-..are Cennydd and Dafydd Howell. | 0:42:37 | 0:42:39 | |
-They have been playing since the -club was established a decade ago. | 0:42:40 | 0:42:44 | |
-My brother, Cennydd and I have been -quite successful in recent months. | 0:42:44 | 0:42:50 | |
-First, we represented Wales in -Belfast and won the pairs category. | 0:42:50 | 0:42:56 | |
-It was Cennydd's debut for Wales -and my second time in the team. | 0:42:56 | 0:43:00 | |
-We weren't the favourites because -Ireland and England were strong... | 0:43:01 | 0:43:06 | |
-..and we made -it through comfortably. | 0:43:06 | 0:43:10 | |
-Unbeknown to me, my brother -entered us in a competition... | 0:43:10 | 0:43:14 | |
-..and we ended up -winning the entire competition. | 0:43:15 | 0:43:19 | |
-It was a worldwide competition, -not just the British Isles. | 0:43:19 | 0:43:23 | |
-Wyn, you've been a member of -the club since it was established. | 0:43:25 | 0:43:29 | |
-You're the man to teach me -so what do I need to remember? | 0:43:29 | 0:43:33 | |
-You're right-handed so the small dot -should face inwards to the block... | 0:43:34 | 0:43:39 | |
-..and the larger ring -faces outwards. | 0:43:39 | 0:43:42 | |
-Place your right foot on the mat and -the left between the white lines. | 0:43:44 | 0:43:50 | |
-We're going to have a game. | 0:43:50 | 0:43:52 | |
-We're going to have a game. - -Yes, let's play. | 0:43:52 | 0:43:53 | |
-Bring it on! | 0:43:53 | 0:43:55 | |
-We're very proud of them. | 0:44:00 | 0:44:02 | |
-This club is only eight years old. | 0:44:03 | 0:44:05 | |
-Dafydd and Cennydd joined the club -and they were taught how to play... | 0:44:05 | 0:44:11 | |
-..and left to their own devices. | 0:44:11 | 0:44:14 | |
-After one end, -I had a slight advantage... | 0:44:14 | 0:44:17 | |
-..but Wyn wasn't going to let me win -without a fight... | 0:44:17 | 0:44:21 | |
-..so it was the best of three! | 0:44:21 | 0:44:24 | |
-It's all about -the placement of the bowls... | 0:44:24 | 0:44:28 | |
-..as opposed to just hitting -the jack. | 0:44:29 | 0:44:32 | |
-You have to force the opposing team -to make mistakes. | 0:44:33 | 0:44:37 | |
-The game is suitable -for anyone aged seven and over. | 0:44:39 | 0:44:43 | |
-Once you master short mat bowls, you -can play indoor or outdoor bowls. | 0:44:44 | 0:44:49 | |
-With one game each, -it all came down to the last bowl. | 0:44:50 | 0:44:55 | |
-We need to measure them. | 0:44:56 | 0:44:58 | |
-Goodness me, it's getting serious! | 0:44:58 | 0:45:01 | |
-Oh! | 0:45:02 | 0:45:04 | |
-I know what I think. | 0:45:05 | 0:45:07 | |
-It was the measuring tape -that had the final word. | 0:45:08 | 0:45:13 | |
-You've won, Rhodri! | 0:45:15 | 0:45:17 | |
-Thank you. | 0:45:18 | 0:45:20 | |
-Good luck to Dafydd and Cennydd. | 0:45:30 | 0:45:33 | |
-You may recall that Daf Wyn -was in London last week... | 0:45:33 | 0:45:37 | |
-..at a very special Plygain service. | 0:45:37 | 0:45:40 | |
-The Plygain -is a religious candlelit service. | 0:45:40 | 0:45:43 | |
-During the service, the congregation -sings carols unaccompanied. | 0:45:44 | 0:45:49 | |
-It's an ancient tradition -that dates back to the 13th century. | 0:45:49 | 0:45:53 | |
-The Plygain is very popular -in Montgomeryshire. | 0:45:54 | 0:45:57 | |

-She recently appeared -on Prynhawn Da... | 0:46:03 | 0:46:06 | |
-..to perform the carol, -Dyddiau Hyfryd. | 0:46:06 | 0:46:09 | |

-# To save a guilty, corrupt sinner | 0:47:13 | 0:47:17 | |

-# We praise Him forever | 0:47:21 | 0:47:24 | |
-# The sinner listened to his voice | 0:47:25 | 0:47:28 | |
-# He won't forsake anyone | 0:47:28 | 0:47:32 | |
-# But gladly embrace -those who believe | 0:47:32 | 0:47:36 | |
