-They carry on in English. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:26 | |

-Everyone's very different. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:39 | |
-They come from all over Wales, -which is very nice. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
-Their experiences are so different. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:45 | |

-They influence other people -beyond this competition. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:29 | |
-There's an element -of perseverance too. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:33 | |
-We're at fault as Welsh speakers... | 0:07:33 | 0:07:37 | |
-..by not starting a conversation -in Welsh. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:42 | |
-As well as that, -when there's a learner... | 0:07:43 | 0:07:45 | |
-..but you're used to speaking -to that person in English. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
-Yes, because it isn't easy. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:51 | |
-If we, as Welsh speakers, -aren't prepared to change... | 0:07:51 | 0:07:55 | |
-..there's no hope. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:56 | |
-That's the nice thing about here - -there's hope. | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |

-People holiday here, decide to stay -and raise a family. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:16 | |
-It's nice to see many of them... | 0:08:17 | 0:08:19 | |
-..embracing our language -and culture. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
-That's important too - -becoming a part of Welsh life. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |

-We needed a larger farm. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
-We asked the alpacas -what was best for them. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:16 | |

-So we decided to bring the family -back to Wales. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:26 | |

-Was it great? | 0:14:48 | 0:14:50 | |
-Well, it was OK. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:52 | |
-What are the girls' names? | 0:14:54 | 0:14:55 | |
-What are the girls' names? - -Holly Eira and Heidi Enlli. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:58 | |
-Oh, nice! | 0:14:58 | 0:14:59 | |
-What do Holly Eira and Heidi Enlli -think of Mam competing today? | 0:14:59 | 0:15:05 | |
-Well, I think it was a shock -for Holly... | 0:15:05 | 0:15:09 | |
-..when I spoke Welsh to her. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:13 | |
-"Mam, you're speaking Welsh!" | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
-I am, Holly! | 0:15:16 | 0:15:17 | |
-You speak Welsh well, -yet, on your form... | 0:15:18 | 0:15:21 | |
-..you say you don't -get many opportunities to speak it. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:25 | |
-Where do you go -for those opportunities? | 0:15:25 | 0:15:28 | |
-If I go to Caernarfon... | 0:15:28 | 0:15:31 | |
-..for example, I go into the -bookshop and speak Welsh to people. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:39 | |
-But I've now got to know -other learners... | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
-..and I speak Welsh -to them over the Web. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:47 | |
-However, I don't speak -to many native Welsh speakers. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:50 | |
-It's far easier to find -other learners who live abroad! | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
-There's a tendency -to start in English... | 0:15:56 | 0:15:59 | |
-..even if you're talking -with a first-language Welsh speaker. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:06 | |
-There's a tendency... | 0:16:06 | 0:16:08 | |
-What do you tell them -in such circumstances? | 0:16:08 | 0:16:11 | |
-I speak Welsh now... | 0:16:11 | 0:16:16 | |
-..but it was difficult. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:20 | |
-You insist now. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
-I insist now, yes. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
-I'm very strict. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:27 | |
-You need to be. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:30 | |
-How did it go? | 0:16:31 | 0:16:32 | |
-Yes, good, I think. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:34 | |
-I'm not sure -but I hope it went well. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:40 | |
-What do you love about Welsh? | 0:16:40 | 0:16:42 | |
-I love the beauty of the language... | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
-..and the culture -connected to the language. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
-Music, of course, and books. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:51 | |
-The land, the Welsh landscape. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:55 | |
-It's all connected to the language. | 0:16:55 | 0:16:58 | |
-I value it so much. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
-Let's meet judge Alun Charles next. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |
-Alun has been a Welsh teacher -and tutor... | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
-..and is the author -of a book for learners. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:18 | |
-Alun, you're halfway through -the day. How's it going? | 0:17:18 | 0:17:22 | |
-It's very busy -but extremely interesting. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
-Everyone has a story. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
-It's an excellent start. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
-I'll be on my knees by the end! | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
-Are you having -enough tea and coffee? | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
-It's great. -There's a level of excellence here. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:38 | |
-I've seen a few nice cakes around. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:40 | |
-Wonderful. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
-Deciding the criteria is difficult. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
-What are you looking for? | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |
-A combination of things. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
-Of course, you look for the quality -of Welsh, the way they communicate. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:54 | |
-What's also important... | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
-..is the learners' contribution -to their community. | 0:17:56 | 0:17:59 | |
-We often see -that Welsh learners contribute... | 0:17:59 | 0:18:04 | |
-..wonderfully. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:06 | |
-They can have such an influence. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:08 | |
-Not only on their peers but their -families, and the community too. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:14 | |
-It's important -that children learn the language. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:17 | |
-It's just as important -that adults do too. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:20 | |
-If you are on your knees at the end -of the day, I'll come and get you. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:25 | |
-Hello, come in. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:27 | |
-Welcome. Take a seat. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:29 | |
-Thank you. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:31 | |
-What about Sandra? -Tell us about yourself. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:35 | |
-I come from the Wrexham area. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:37 | |
-I was born in Wrexham. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:41 | |
-I lived in Johnstown near Rhos -when I was growing up. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:48 | |
-I then moved away. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:50 | |
-I went to university in Aberystwyth. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:54 | |
-Then, I worked -in southern England... | 0:18:56 | 0:19:01 | |
-..as a teacher for a while. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:03 | |
-I then moved to Cardiff... | 0:19:04 | 0:19:06 | |
-..because my husband -comes from South Wales. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:10 | |
-Then, I moved back to my home patch. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
-My family spoke Welsh but they -didn't pass it on to me, sadly. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:21 | |
-So I grew up with the sound -of the language around me... | 0:19:22 | 0:19:26 | |
-..but I didn't have the confidence -to speak it at all... | 0:19:26 | 0:19:32 | |
-..until I learnt with Say Something -In Welsh, originally. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:38 | |
-It's been great for me. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
-I've gone through the courses -in ten months, I think. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:46 | |
-I went to a bootcamp in Tresaith, -which was a lot of fun. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:52 | |
-What was that like? | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
-Great. | 0:19:54 | 0:19:55 | |
-No English at all -throughout the week. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
-That was difficult, very difficult. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:02 | |
-But it was fun. I had a great time. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:06 | |
-At the end of the week, I didn't -want to switch back to English. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:12 | |
-I was so happy. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:13 | |
-On the last day... | 0:20:14 | 0:20:15 | |
-..I remember -waking up and thinking in Welsh. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:20 | |
-I felt great. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:25 | |
-Sandra, you've just come out. -How was it? | 0:20:25 | 0:20:29 | |
-Quite good. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:31 | |
-I was nervous, -but the judges were lovely. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:34 | |
-They were lovely. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:36 | |
-I could see on your face -that you were so glad it was over! | 0:20:36 | 0:20:41 | |
-I'm sure! | 0:20:41 | 0:20:42 | |
-Dani, you know Richard and Sian. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:51 | |
-Will you be nasty to each other -today? | 0:20:51 | 0:20:53 | |
-Maybe, we'll see! | 0:20:54 | 0:20:55 | |
-Fisticuffs. We'll sort it outside! | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
-Your story -is very, very interesting. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:02 | |
-You'd never tell from your accent, -which is so Welsh... | 0:21:02 | 0:21:07 | |
-..but you come from Germany. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:09 | |
-Tell me how a German girl -came over to Wales. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:14 | |
-She came on holiday to Wales, -years ago. Ten years ago. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:18 | |
-I fell in love with Wales... | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
-..with the country, the mountains, -the people and the language. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:24 | |
-I learnt a little of the language -before coming here. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:28 | |
-I then decided to learn Welsh. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:30 | |
-It's such a beautiful language. | 0:21:30 | 0:21:33 | |
-I then decided to move here -to learn more... | 0:21:33 | 0:21:37 | |
-..and see if it would work out. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:39 | |
-Everything has worked out. -It's great. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:43 | |
-What did the family think -of your move? | 0:21:43 | 0:21:49 | |
-They weren't happy. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
-But they support me, so it's fine. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:55 | |
-They understand that I'm happy. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:58 | |
-I'm enjoying everything -that's happening around me. | 0:21:58 | 0:22:02 | |
-I'm singing in two choirs. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:06 | |
-A choir for learners, Elwyn's choir, -and the Eisteddfod choir. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:10 | |
-It's exciting. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
-It's cool to be part of something... | 0:22:12 | 0:22:16 | |
-..that's so important -in the Eisteddfod. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:20 | |
-It's a lot of work, fun -and I'm looking forward to it. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:24 | |
-Can you say a little more... | 0:22:24 | 0:22:26 | |
-..about the opportunities you get -in using Welsh from day to day? | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
-I try to speak Welsh every day. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:34 | |
-I start conversations in Welsh. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:37 | |
-If I start in English, -people answer in English. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:41 | |
-So it's important to start in Welsh. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:43 | |
-It shows that I want to speak Welsh. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:47 | |
-When people stick to Welsh, -it's great. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:50 | |
-After a few sentences, -they realize I'm a learner. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:54 | |
-It doesn't matter. -They still speak Welsh. | 0:22:55 | 0:22:58 | |
-That's good. | 0:22:58 | 0:22:59 | |
-I'm proud of that. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:01 | |
-I speak Welsh -with the lads at work... | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |
-..and in the choir. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:06 | |
-I go to a cuppa and chat session -in Palas Print in Caernarfon. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:11 | |
-Everyone speaks Welsh. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:14 | |
-When I'm in Caernarfon, -I just speak Welsh. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
-It's totally natural -to speak Welsh there. | 0:23:17 | 0:23:19 | |
-I can't speak English -in Caernarfon! It hurts! | 0:23:19 | 0:23:23 | |
-It doesn't work. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:24 | |
-So I just use every opportunity -that comes every day. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:29 | |
-How would you encourage -other people to learn? | 0:23:29 | 0:23:32 | |
-How would you inspire others -to take an interest in the language? | 0:23:33 | 0:23:37 | |
-Leading by example. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:39 | |
-Just being confident enough -to speak and show that it's working. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:45 | |
-The funny thing -about the cuppa and chat session... | 0:23:46 | 0:23:49 | |
-..is it started off quietly. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
-Everyone was shy -and lacked confidence. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:55 | |
-Now, because people just chat, -everyone enjoys themselves. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:59 | |
-The conversation flows, -the place is packed every time. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:04 | |
-We don't stop, and that's cool. | 0:24:04 | 0:24:07 | |
-I started as someone who just wanted -the opportunity to have a chat. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:13 | |
-I'm now one of the fairly -fluent ones, who helps other people. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:18 | |
-It's happening, it's great. -Really cool. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:22 | |
-The standard -is high again this year. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:27 | |
-It's time for a break now. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:29 | |
-Stay tuned to meet more learners -and to see who reaches the final. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:35 | |

-There's a Kyffin Williams gallery, -a Charles Tunnicliffe gallery... | 0:25:21 | 0:25:26 | |

-There are many Welsh artists. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:34 | |
-There are many Welsh artists. - -Yes, many Welsh artists. | 0:25:34 | 0:25:36 | |

-Thank you very much. -Nice to see you again. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
-What's a man from Ellesmere Port -doing learning Welsh? | 0:26:00 | 0:26:04 | |
-I didn't get the urge -to learn Welsh until I retired. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:10 | |
-My wife -contemplated moving to Wales. | 0:26:11 | 0:26:14 | |
-We haven't done it yet, -but we're thinking about it. | 0:26:14 | 0:26:18 | |
-Since I spend so much time here... | 0:26:18 | 0:26:22 | |
-..I have to be able to say... | 0:26:22 | 0:26:25 | |
-.."Please. Can I have. -Thank you very much." | 0:26:25 | 0:26:28 | |
-What about using Welsh? | 0:26:29 | 0:26:31 | |
-How much opportunity do you have -to speak Welsh? | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
-People think -because I live in Ellesmere Port... | 0:26:35 | 0:26:38 | |
-..I don't get an opportunity. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:41 | |
-But Ellesmere Port -is the new capital of North Wales... | 0:26:41 | 0:26:44 | |
-..because we have -the biggest Marks and Sparks! | 0:26:44 | 0:26:47 | |
-Coaches come every weekend -from all over North Wales... | 0:26:47 | 0:26:51 | |
-..to Cheshire Oaks and so on... | 0:26:51 | 0:26:54 | |
-..and you can hear the language -in unexpected places... | 0:26:54 | 0:26:58 | |
-..and have a chat from time to time. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:01 | |
-Away from Ellesmere Port, -I go to Saith Seren every week. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:07 | |
-I have a lot of friends there. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
-I've been a member of the group -for almost five years. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:15 | |
-We've formed a conversation club -to help learners. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:19 | |
-Sian James is coming next week. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:23 | |
-I'm a member of an unusual choir -too - Cor DAW. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:29 | |
-Dysgwyr o Ardal Wrecsam -(learners from the Wrexham area). | 0:27:29 | 0:27:33 | |
-Every year -for the last five years... | 0:27:34 | 0:27:36 | |
-..we've sung -a medley of contemporary songs. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:40 | |
-They're English songs originally -but we sing Welsh versions. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:47 | |
-We've got stage twice... | 0:27:47 | 0:27:50 | |
-..since it was decided that -the best choirs would go on stage... | 0:27:50 | 0:27:55 | |
-..and not just stay in Maes D. | 0:27:55 | 0:27:58 | |
-In Abergavenny, we were victorious. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:02 | |
-Are you competing this year? | 0:28:02 | 0:28:04 | |
-There are clips on YouTube -of Sister Act. | 0:28:04 | 0:28:07 | |
-It's quite unusual. -It's more unusual than normal. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:14 | |
-Sian, you're from Llanfairpwll, -so you're from the island. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:19 | |
-Yes. | 0:28:19 | 0:28:20 | |
-Do you have a plan today? | 0:28:20 | 0:28:23 | |
-A strategy on how to win? | 0:28:23 | 0:28:26 | |
-I'm not sure, -just turn up and do my best. | 0:28:26 | 0:28:30 | |
-Fantastic. -I think that's a good strategy. | 0:28:31 | 0:28:35 | |
-I come from Wrexham. | 0:28:35 | 0:28:38 | |
-I moved to Anglesey three years ago. | 0:28:38 | 0:28:41 | |
-Immediately after moving here, -I was determined to learn Welsh. | 0:28:41 | 0:28:46 | |
-I work as a physio at the hospital. | 0:28:46 | 0:28:49 | |
-I think it's important -to speak Welsh with patients. | 0:28:49 | 0:28:54 | |
-When you decided to learn, -how did you go about it? | 0:28:55 | 0:28:59 | |
-There were three reasons. | 0:29:00 | 0:29:03 | |
-Firstly, I'm a Welsh woman, -so I want to speak Welsh. | 0:29:04 | 0:29:09 | |
-Secondly, I want to treat the -patients in their mother tongue... | 0:29:10 | 0:29:15 | |
-..and I also want -to be part of the community. | 0:29:16 | 0:29:19 | |
-I'm a member of three Merched y Wawr -and one Clwb Gwawr. | 0:29:19 | 0:29:23 | |
-Three Merched y Wawr?! | 0:29:24 | 0:29:26 | |
-Three Merched y Wawr?! - -Yes, to have the opportunity. | 0:29:26 | 0:29:28 | |
-One in Llanfairpwll, one in Bangor, -one in Penrhosgarnedd... | 0:29:29 | 0:29:33 | |
-..and the Grwp Gwawr -in Llanbedr-goch. | 0:29:34 | 0:29:36 | |
-Which one is the best? | 0:29:36 | 0:29:38 | |
-I don't want to say! | 0:29:38 | 0:29:40 | |

-I'm also a member -of Dros y Bont choir... | 0:29:45 | 0:29:48 | |
-..which won at the -National Eisteddfod two years ago. | 0:29:48 | 0:29:54 | |

-Everywhere. | 0:30:08 | 0:30:10 | |
-We walk on Anglesey, -up the mountains. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:14 | |
-What type of walking? -Do you walk far? | 0:30:14 | 0:30:17 | |
-Both groups are different. | 0:30:17 | 0:30:19 | |
-The Llanfairpwll group -walks locally, but not far. | 0:30:20 | 0:30:25 | |

-"Wear the leek in your cap, -and wear it in your heart." | 0:32:31 | 0:32:37 | |
-A Porthmadog lad. | 0:32:37 | 0:32:39 | |
-Was it painful? | 0:32:39 | 0:32:39 | |
-Was it painful? - -No. | 0:32:39 | 0:32:40 | |
-It's quite a sensitive spot. | 0:32:41 | 0:32:44 | |
-Yes, but at the time, -the girl was speaking to me... | 0:32:44 | 0:32:48 | |
-..so I wasn't thinking about it. | 0:32:48 | 0:32:51 | |

-The two of us chat together. | 0:33:22 | 0:33:26 | |
-I give her a little support. | 0:33:28 | 0:33:32 | |
-What do you think of people's -attitude towards Welsh in general? | 0:33:32 | 0:33:37 | |
-It's changing a lot. | 0:33:37 | 0:33:39 | |
-When I was growing up, there -wasn't much Welsh in Caerphilly... | 0:33:39 | 0:33:44 | |
-..but everything's changed now. | 0:33:44 | 0:33:46 | |
-Thank you very much. | 0:33:47 | 0:33:48 | |

-After a long day of competing... | 0:33:58 | 0:34:01 | |

-Emma Chappell. | 0:34:28 | 0:34:30 | |
-And Hugh Brightwell. | 0:34:30 | 0:34:33 | |
-The big question is -do we have three happy judges? | 0:34:36 | 0:34:40 | |
-Definitely. | 0:34:40 | 0:34:42 | |
-Definitely. - -Yes? Yay! | 0:34:42 | 0:34:43 | |
-Have you argued? | 0:34:44 | 0:34:46 | |
-No, not at all. | 0:34:46 | 0:34:48 | |
-So you were in agreement. | 0:34:48 | 0:34:50 | |
-Alun, how difficult a task was it? | 0:34:50 | 0:34:55 | |
-It was difficult -because everyone spoke Welsh well. | 0:34:55 | 0:34:59 | |
-They communicated effectively... | 0:34:59 | 0:35:02 | |
-..and each one's made a contribution -to the world of learners. | 0:35:03 | 0:35:06 | |
-But we had to get it down to four. | 0:35:07 | 0:35:08 | |
-But we had to get it down to four. - -Yes. | 0:35:08 | 0:35:09 | |
-And how did you choose those four? | 0:35:09 | 0:35:12 | |
-We considered a lot of things - -how fluent they were. | 0:35:13 | 0:35:18 | |
-How confident they were when -chatting was an important factor. | 0:35:18 | 0:35:22 | |
-We also considered how much -of an inspiration they've been... | 0:35:22 | 0:35:27 | |
-..or are planning to be -to other people. | 0:35:27 | 0:35:30 | |
-That's important... | 0:35:30 | 0:35:33 | |
-..that the baton is passed -to the next person. | 0:35:33 | 0:35:37 | |
-Jenny, -you've won this competition... | 0:35:37 | 0:35:41 | |
-..and that's exactly what -you've done - passed the baton on. | 0:35:42 | 0:35:47 | |
-That's what needs to be done. | 0:35:47 | 0:35:49 | |
-What about the next round? | 0:35:49 | 0:35:53 | |
-Do we have exciting things -planned for them? | 0:35:54 | 0:35:57 | |
-We're going to take them -to a nice place on Anglesey... | 0:35:58 | 0:36:02 | |
-..called Llynnon Mill, the only -working mill left on Anglesey. | 0:36:02 | 0:36:07 | |
-In this location, -I hope they'll be able to relax. | 0:36:07 | 0:36:10 | |
-More so than here. | 0:36:10 | 0:36:12 | |
-And have a chat. | 0:36:13 | 0:36:14 | |
-And have a chat. - -And have a longer chat. | 0:36:14 | 0:36:16 | |
-We had about ten minutes each here. | 0:36:16 | 0:36:20 | |
-To get a better idea, -because everyone has a story. | 0:36:20 | 0:36:24 | |
-We'll then have more time to listen. | 0:36:24 | 0:36:26 | |
-It'll be hard for us to relax. -The competition is so tight. | 0:36:27 | 0:36:31 | |
-Thank you very much. The three -of you are a balm to the soul. | 0:36:31 | 0:36:35 | |
-The sun is out too -as it always is on Anglesey! | 0:36:35 | 0:36:38 | |
-Yeah! | 0:36:39 | 0:36:40 | |
-You're happy. | 0:36:42 | 0:36:43 | |
-You're happy. - -Very happy. | 0:36:43 | 0:36:44 | |
-Your face was a picture - it looked -like you were a little shocked. | 0:36:44 | 0:36:50 | |
-A little shocked? | 0:36:51 | 0:36:53 | |
-Very shocked! | 0:36:53 | 0:36:55 | |
-Really? | 0:36:56 | 0:36:58 | |
-I heard the names and thought, -"One, two, three - me?!" | 0:36:58 | 0:37:02 | |
-That's what I saw. | 0:37:04 | 0:37:06 | |
-I didn't expect it at all. | 0:37:06 | 0:37:09 | |
-What about you? The message -from the children worked. | 0:37:09 | 0:37:14 | |
-You tried your very best. | 0:37:14 | 0:37:15 | |
-You tried your very best. - -I did. | 0:37:15 | 0:37:17 | |
-What do the kids think? | 0:37:17 | 0:37:20 | |
-They were so excited. "Ah, Mam!" | 0:37:20 | 0:37:24 | |
-Cuddles and kisses and everything. | 0:37:25 | 0:37:27 | |
-How do you feel, Rich? | 0:37:27 | 0:37:29 | |
-I'm very proud. | 0:37:30 | 0:37:32 | |
-It's quite a shock to go through, -quite a shock... | 0:37:32 | 0:37:35 | |
-..but I'm looking forward. | 0:37:35 | 0:37:38 | |
-Are you going to the Eisteddfod? | 0:37:38 | 0:37:41 | |
-Yes. | 0:37:41 | 0:37:42 | |
-You're not going to Germany? | 0:37:42 | 0:37:45 | |
-I've booked the week off. | 0:37:45 | 0:37:46 | |
-I've booked the week off. - -Great, just in case. | 0:37:46 | 0:37:48 | |
-Well done. | 0:37:48 | 0:37:50 | |
-It's a shock, but I'm happy -and I'm looking forward. | 0:37:50 | 0:37:54 | |
-It'll be a very exciting time. | 0:37:54 | 0:37:57 | |

-The first dish using tomatoes -requires no cooking. | 0:38:41 | 0:38:45 | |
-Tomato gazpacho. | 0:38:45 | 0:38:47 | |
-Prepare the vegetables, starting -by cutting the tomatoes in half. | 0:38:48 | 0:38:53 | |
-Squeeze out all the seeds. | 0:38:56 | 0:38:58 | |
-We don't need any of those. | 0:38:58 | 0:39:00 | |
-Add half a banana shallot. | 0:39:01 | 0:39:02 | |
-Banana shallots aren't as strong as -onions and they're slightly sweet. | 0:39:04 | 0:39:09 | |
-Add it to the tomatoes. | 0:39:11 | 0:39:12 | |
-Next, some garlic. | 0:39:13 | 0:39:16 | |
-Peel a red pepper. | 0:39:16 | 0:39:18 | |
-We don't need the skin. | 0:39:18 | 0:39:21 | |
-It's important -to peel the red pepper. | 0:39:21 | 0:39:25 | |
-This is a good way -to get rid of the seeds. | 0:39:33 | 0:39:36 | |
-Cut one side, then roll the pepper -and slide the knife along. | 0:39:36 | 0:39:41 | |
-The seeds come out in one go. | 0:39:43 | 0:39:46 | |
-Add the pepper to the tomatoes. | 0:39:49 | 0:39:51 | |
-Next, add half a cucumber. | 0:39:54 | 0:39:56 | |
-It's important -to peel the cucumber too. | 0:39:56 | 0:40:00 | |
-The skin doesn't taste great. | 0:40:02 | 0:40:04 | |
-Cut it in half, -then into quarters. | 0:40:06 | 0:40:09 | |
-This is an easy way -to remove the seeds. | 0:40:09 | 0:40:12 | |
-Run the knife under them. | 0:40:13 | 0:40:14 | |
-Cut the cucumber pieces -the same size as the pepper. | 0:40:15 | 0:40:19 | |
-The vegetables are ready, -so now I need some coriander seeds. | 0:40:21 | 0:40:26 | |
-Toast them in a dry pan. | 0:40:27 | 0:40:29 | |
-It takes about a minute, -so while they toast... | 0:40:29 | 0:40:33 | |
-..I'll add some celery salt -to the tomatoes. | 0:40:34 | 0:40:39 | |
-This is tomato passata... | 0:40:42 | 0:40:44 | |
-..which is between tomato puree -and tomato juice. | 0:40:44 | 0:40:48 | |
-The coriander seeds are ready. | 0:40:48 | 0:40:50 | |
-Once you can smell coriander, -they're ready. | 0:40:51 | 0:40:54 | |
-Next, add some white wine vinegar. | 0:40:54 | 0:40:58 | |
-Finally, some olive oil. | 0:41:00 | 0:41:02 | |
-You need a good oil for this -because we're not cooking it. | 0:41:03 | 0:41:07 | |
-Mix it thoroughly -to bring everything together. | 0:41:09 | 0:41:13 | |
-Cover the bowl with cling film... | 0:41:16 | 0:41:20 | |
-..and refrigerate it overnight. | 0:41:21 | 0:41:24 | |
-The gazpacho is ready. | 0:41:47 | 0:41:49 | |
-I chilled it overnight. | 0:41:49 | 0:41:51 | |
-Now for the final step. | 0:41:53 | 0:41:55 | |
-It's important to pass it through -a sieve to make sure it's smooth. | 0:42:07 | 0:42:12 | |
-Push it through. | 0:42:17 | 0:42:18 | |
-Get all that liquid out of it. | 0:42:21 | 0:42:24 | |
-Add a little bit of salt. | 0:42:29 | 0:42:31 | |
-I remember the first time -I tried gazpacho. | 0:42:31 | 0:42:36 | |
-I was on holiday in Ibiza -with my mates. | 0:42:36 | 0:42:39 | |
-When I ordered gazpacho... | 0:42:40 | 0:42:42 | |
-..my friends all laughed at me -for ordering cold tomato soup! | 0:42:42 | 0:42:48 | |
-But I still remember -that fresh taste and that coldness. | 0:42:49 | 0:42:54 | |
-If the gazpacho isn't really cold, -put it back in the fridge. | 0:42:54 | 0:42:58 | |
-It's got to be very cold. | 0:42:59 | 0:43:01 | |
-Serve the gazpacho -garnished with black olives... | 0:43:01 | 0:43:05 | |
-..basil leaves... | 0:43:07 | 0:43:08 | |
-..and add a little bit of olive oil. | 0:43:09 | 0:43:12 | |
-There we are - tomato gazpacho. -A very simple but very tasty recipe. | 0:43:15 | 0:43:20 | |
-Green Tomato Chutney And Cheese | 0:43:42 | 0:43:45 | |
-The final course of a meal -needn't be sweet. | 0:43:45 | 0:43:48 | |
-I'm on the allotment -to make a green tomato chutney. | 0:43:48 | 0:43:53 | |
-First, I'll finely chop an onion. | 0:43:53 | 0:43:56 | |
-It's important to chop it -finer than the tomatoes. | 0:43:56 | 0:44:02 | |
-This is a tomato chutney, -not an onion chutney. | 0:44:02 | 0:44:05 | |
-In the pan it goes. | 0:44:08 | 0:44:11 | |
-Next, I'll prepare -some fresh ginger root. | 0:44:11 | 0:44:14 | |
-I only need a small piece. | 0:44:15 | 0:44:17 | |
-I'm peeling it. | 0:44:20 | 0:44:22 | |
-I'll grate the ginger -rather than chop it. | 0:44:26 | 0:44:29 | |
-The ginger is ready, -so I'll add it to the onions. | 0:44:35 | 0:44:39 | |
-Next, I'm adding a courgette... | 0:44:42 | 0:44:44 | |
-..to the mixture. | 0:44:47 | 0:44:48 | |
-I'm adding a courgette... | 0:44:49 | 0:44:51 | |
-..because you need something -to bind the chutney together. | 0:44:51 | 0:44:55 | |
-The courgette... | 0:44:55 | 0:44:57 | |
-..will bind -the onions, tomatoes and ginger. | 0:44:57 | 0:45:03 | |
-Without the courgette, -you wouldn't have a chutney. | 0:45:03 | 0:45:07 | |
-You always need something soft -to hold a chutney together. | 0:45:08 | 0:45:13 | |
-Courgettes contain a lot of water... | 0:45:14 | 0:45:17 | |
-..so they cook down to nothing. | 0:45:17 | 0:45:21 | |
-This chutney needs some spice... | 0:45:22 | 0:45:25 | |
-..so I'll add some ground -Jamaican allspice to the mixture. | 0:45:25 | 0:45:30 | |
-That's enough. | 0:45:30 | 0:45:32 | |
-Next, the sugar. | 0:45:35 | 0:45:37 | |
-You always add sugar to chutney. | 0:45:37 | 0:45:40 | |
-The final ingredient -is cider vinegar. | 0:45:43 | 0:45:48 | |
-It's important to use an -equal amount of sugar and vinegar. | 0:45:50 | 0:45:54 | |
-Everything's in the saucepan -apart from the tomatoes. | 0:46:00 | 0:46:03 | |
-The pan goes on the heat. | 0:46:04 | 0:46:05 | |
-While the mixture -simmers and reduces... | 0:46:12 | 0:46:16 | |
-..I'll prepare the green tomatoes. | 0:46:16 | 0:46:19 | |
-If you grow tomatoes and you have -some green, hard, unripe ones... | 0:46:19 | 0:46:24 | |
-..this is the perfect recipe -for you. | 0:46:24 | 0:46:27 | |
-Hard tomatoes -are ideal for this chutney. | 0:46:27 | 0:46:30 | |
-We add them to a hot pan, so they -break down and taste wonderful. | 0:46:30 | 0:46:35 | |
-I'm cutting the tomatoes into -quarters and removing the seeds. | 0:46:37 | 0:46:41 | |
-The seeds contain a lot of water... | 0:46:42 | 0:46:45 | |
-..and I need a pretty dry mixture. | 0:46:45 | 0:46:48 | |
-The tomatoes go in the pan. | 0:46:49 | 0:46:51 | |
-They should be simmered not boiled, -otherwise the texture will be lost. | 0:46:52 | 0:46:58 | |
-The liquid has almost all gone, -which is what we need. | 0:47:02 | 0:47:06 | |
-The courgette has cooked down -and lost all its water. | 0:47:06 | 0:47:11 | |
-It's simmered and reduced. | 0:47:11 | 0:47:13 | |
-Now, I'll add the tomatoes -to the pan. | 0:47:15 | 0:47:18 | |
-I'll cook the tomatoes -for five to ten minutes. | 0:47:19 | 0:47:23 | |
-When everything comes together, -the chutney is ready. | 0:47:24 | 0:47:27 | |
-It should be left to cool -before it's served. | 0:47:27 | 0:47:30 | |
-The chutney has cooled and I like to -serve it with Caerphilly cheese. | 0:47:40 | 0:47:46 | |
-I serve this combination -in my London restaurant. | 0:47:47 | 0:47:51 | |
-The combination of a good cheese -and a good chutney is hard to beat. | 0:47:52 | 0:47:57 | |
-Mm! | 0:47:59 | 0:48:00 | |
