0:08:42 > 0:08:45- North East Wales, in general, - is an area...

0:08:46 > 0:08:49- ..where the Ah sound of Gwynedd - becomes an Eh sound.

0:08:50 > 0:08:54- In Gwynedd, - people say "sgidia" and "llyfra"...

0:08:55 > 0:09:00- ..but in this part of North Wales - they say "llyfre" and "sgidie".

0:09:03 > 0:09:07- Every Ah sound you hear in Gwynedd - becomes an Eh in this area.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10- Dw i'n codi yn y bore - a dw i'n gwisgo'n sgidie.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13- 'De chi'n nabod Dimbech?

0:09:13 > 0:09:17- They also say cochwyn - rather than cychwyn.

0:09:17 > 0:09:21- Mae'r gem yn cochwyn - - the game starts.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24- Cochwyn i'r gwaith - - leave for work.

0:09:24 > 0:09:28- Mae'r ffilm yn cochwyn - - the film is starting.

0:09:28 > 0:09:33- They don't say weles di - you saw - or weles i - I saw.

0:09:33 > 0:09:37- They don't say wnes i weld - I saw, - wnes ti weld - did you see...

0:09:37 > 0:09:40- ..or anything along those lines.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43- What they use all the time, - and I mean all the time...

0:09:44 > 0:09:48- ..is ddaru ti weld - did you see, - but they break it down further...

0:09:49 > 0:09:51- ..and say 'a ti weld - did you see?

0:09:52 > 0:09:54- 'A ti weld - did you see?

0:09:54 > 0:09:55- 'A ti weld - did you see?- - 'A ti glywed - did you hear?

0:09:56 > 0:09:59- Those are the main characteristics.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01- People here don't say...

0:10:01 > 0:10:04- ..dw i'n byw yn Ninbych - - I live in Denbigh.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06- They say dw i'n byw yn Nimbech.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09- The n becomes an m - and ych becomes an ech.

0:10:11 > 0:10:15- Where are the accent boundaries? - Where does it change?

0:10:15 > 0:10:21- Denbigh was the most important town - in this part of the Vale Of Clwyd...

0:10:21 > 0:10:25- ..so places like Llannefydd - and Llansannan fed Denbigh.

0:10:25 > 0:10:30- Someone born and bred in Llansannan, - Llannefydd or Bylchau...

0:10:30 > 0:10:32- ..will be - in Ah becomes Eh territory.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35- You can hear it in their accent.

0:10:37 > 0:10:42- If you head west to Llangernyw, - which feeds into Llanrwst...

0:10:42 > 0:10:45- ..you find yourself in Ah territory.

0:10:46 > 0:10:50- Llanrwst was the most important town - in that area...

0:10:50 > 0:10:54- ..and it pulled the accent - into the direction of Gwynedd.

0:10:55 > 0:10:56- Thank you, Ioan.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33- Hefin, her partner, - is a Welsh speaker.

0:18:33 > 0:18:38- When I met her, Cisa had only been - learning Welsh for three months.

0:18:51 > 0:18:55- There's a whole world I'm missing - out on in the shows we go to.

0:18:55 > 0:18:57- Local shows and the Royal Welsh.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00- They speak Welsh all the time...

0:19:01 > 0:19:08- ..so I'm really looking forward - to surprising them with my Welsh!

0:19:11 > 0:19:13- I go to the Show every year.

0:19:18 > 0:19:22- At the moment, I don't understand - what they're saying.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24- I want to speak Welsh to them.

0:19:25 > 0:19:27- I've lived in Wales forever nearly.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32- I didn't learn any Welsh at school.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38- I went to a private school, - so I didn't do Welsh at all.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42- They didn't teach Welsh - at any level there?

0:19:42 > 0:19:45- You could have done it at lunchtime.

0:19:45 > 0:19:50- It was the same lunchtime as choir.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53- I was more music, so did the choir.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57- Welsh or singing? I know a place - where you can do both!

0:19:59 > 0:20:01- Ready? One, two, three!

0:20:01 > 0:20:05- # It's windy in Bethesda so they say

0:20:06 > 0:20:09- # It's windy in Bethesda so they say

0:20:10 > 0:20:14- # It's windy in Bethesda - Windy in Bethesda

0:20:14 > 0:20:16- # Windy in Bethesda so they say #

0:20:18 > 0:20:22- Everyone at home will hear you - speaking Welsh with me.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26- Tell them - how long you've been learning.

0:20:26 > 0:20:27- Since January.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29- Three months!

0:20:30 > 0:20:31- Only three months!

0:20:33 > 0:20:35- How have you learned it?

0:20:35 > 0:20:37- With Say Something In Welsh.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39- Online?

0:20:40 > 0:20:42- No, on my phone.

0:20:42 > 0:20:46- They're audio files and you - listen to them on your phone?

0:20:46 > 0:20:48- Yes. I listen to them in the car...

0:20:49 > 0:20:52- ..on my way to work - and on my way home every day.

0:21:10 > 0:21:14- Why do cariad@iaith? - Why do it this way, on television?

0:21:14 > 0:21:16- The whole concept.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19- I really like the idea - of learning with people.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23- At the moment, - I'm learning on my own, in the car.

0:21:23 > 0:21:26- Learning Welsh with other people - is quite nice.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30- I thought I'd fill in the form - and see what happens.

0:21:30 > 0:21:34- Then I got a phone call - and I was like, "Oh, OK!"

0:21:34 > 0:21:37- I didn't expect it - to go as far as it has.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39- I've got over the nerves now.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41- I'm excited now.

0:21:43 > 0:21:48- Here I am, a year after cariad@iaith - 2013, back on the farm with Cisa.

0:21:49 > 0:21:50- How are you, Cisa?

0:21:50 > 0:21:52- How are you, Cisa?- - I'm fine thank you, Nia.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54- The big question is - how's your Welsh?

0:21:56 > 0:21:58- It's going quite well.

0:21:58 > 0:22:02- I've improved but - I'm not sure I'm perfect just yet!

0:22:04 > 0:22:07- Do you have opportunities - to use your Welsh locally?

0:22:07 > 0:22:09- Yes. A lot of opportunities.

0:22:10 > 0:22:15- All you have to do is feel happy - to start a conversation in Welsh.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18- I think a lot of people here - can speak Welsh.

0:22:20 > 0:22:24- I speak Welsh with Hefin - but not all the time.

0:22:24 > 0:22:27- I also speak Welsh - with Hefin's friends.

0:22:27 > 0:22:31- Do you speak half Welsh, - half English with them?

0:22:31 > 0:22:33- Do you switch languages?

0:22:33 > 0:22:35- I try to speak only Welsh.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38- I try to speak only Welsh.- - And that's why you're succeeding.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40- You go for it - and dive in, feet first.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44- You tell yourself - you'll try to speak Welsh.

0:22:47 > 0:22:52- One of your reasons for learning - Welsh was to go to the Royal Welsh.

0:22:53 > 0:22:54- How did the last Show go?

0:22:56 > 0:23:01- I still feel nervous - to start a conversation in Welsh.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03- I hope it improves this year.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08- What else have you been doing - since I last saw you?

0:23:08 > 0:23:10- Hefin and I have bought a house.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14- That's exciting news! Whereabouts?

0:23:14 > 0:23:15- That's exciting news! Whereabouts?- - In Denbigh.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17- In the middle of town?

0:23:17 > 0:23:20- In the middle of town?- - On Ruthin Road, by the high school.

0:23:20 > 0:23:22- I'll come over - for a cuppa next time.

0:23:23 > 0:23:27- Are you still in touch - with the cariad@iaith crew?

0:23:27 > 0:23:31- Yes, but I talk to Danielle - and Gayle more than the others.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37- We all keep in touch via Facebook.

0:23:37 > 0:23:39- Sarah emailed me about her new baby.

0:23:41 > 0:23:44- Polu has become a father. - He has a new baby.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48- Do you foresee a day, - sometime in the future...

0:23:48 > 0:23:52- ..when you and Hefin - will speak only Welsh together?

0:23:53 > 0:23:57- I really want to be able to speak - nothing but Welsh to him.

0:23:58 > 0:24:02- I want our children - to speak Welsh and English.

0:24:04 > 0:24:09- Cisa, go forth and multiply and make - lots of Welsh-speaking babies!

0:24:10 > 0:24:12- It's time for a break.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15- Stay tuned - for a special bara brith recipe...

0:24:15 > 0:24:18- ..and to meet the owner - of this Georgian house.

0:24:19 > 0:24:19- .

0:24:28 > 0:24:30- Subtitles- - Subtitles

0:24:33 > 0:24:35- Welcome back to Milltir2.

0:24:35 > 0:24:39- I'm in the Vale Of Clwyd - to meet some local people...

0:24:39 > 0:24:43- ..and to look back at archive - material filmed in this area.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46- Earlier in the programme...

0:24:46 > 0:24:49- ..Bryn Williams - talked about learning to bake...

0:24:49 > 0:24:52- ..at the bakehouse in Denbigh.

0:24:52 > 0:24:56- This is a clip of Bryn coming home - to make bara brith for his grandma.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02- First, you need some flour.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09- We'll use lard - as the fat in this recipe.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11- It's my grandmother's recipe...

0:25:11 > 0:25:16- ..and she always uses lard, - never butter or margarine.

0:25:17 > 0:25:21- I remember Nain making this by hand - when I was little.

0:25:21 > 0:25:25- Alwyn Thomas always taught me - to do everything with my hands...

0:25:26 > 0:25:28- ..rather than with a machine.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36- The combined lard and flour - looks like breadcrumbs.

0:25:37 > 0:25:38- Add the sugar.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42- Mix the sugar - into the flour and lard.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45- Orange peel and lemon peel.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48- Add the currants.

0:25:50 > 0:25:54- Before the next step, make a hole - in the centre of the flour.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59- I'll pour water and yeast in here.

0:26:01 > 0:26:06- The water must be warm but not - too hot, as it will kill the yeast.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09- The yeast will sleep - if the water's too cold.

0:26:11 > 0:26:16- North Wales bara brith is different - from South Wales bara brith.

0:26:16 > 0:26:21- The southern recipe uses no yeast - but it does include an egg...

0:26:21 > 0:26:24- ..so it tastes - more like a cake than bread.

0:26:27 > 0:26:30- This is the fun bit - which everyone enjoys.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32- Get all the yeast out of the jug.

0:26:32 > 0:26:36- If the yeast isn't in the flour, - the bara brith won't rise.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41- Start with one finger - and one finger only.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44- Add the flour to the water - very slowly.

0:26:52 > 0:26:57- The water's all gone, so I can now - use both hands to bring it together.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59- Add all the flour to the dough.

0:27:07 > 0:27:11- Roll the dough around the surface - to pick up all the flour.

0:27:20 > 0:27:24- Let the dough rise in a warm place - until it doubles in size.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31- Food brings everyone together.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35- It's the magnet which brings - friends and family together.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38- Bake it in the oven - for half an hour.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41- I've got time for a cup of tea.

0:27:45 > 0:27:49- This is Nain's recipe, - so I think she should try it first.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52- Will you have - a little slice of bara brith?

0:27:52 > 0:27:54- Thank you.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01- Is it alright, Nain?

0:28:01 > 0:28:02- Is it alright, Nain?- - Yes. It's very good.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04- Are you sure?

0:28:05 > 0:28:07- It looks good.

0:28:09 > 0:28:12- Nain on one side - and Alwyn on the other!

0:28:12 > 0:28:14- The texture is right. It's lovely.

0:28:15 > 0:28:16- I haven't tried it yet.

0:28:21 > 0:28:22- You haven't lost it!

0:28:22 > 0:28:24- Fantastic.

0:28:24 > 0:28:26- I'll save that bit for Dad.

0:28:27 > 0:28:28- I'll have this bit.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32- Does it taste the same - as your bara brith, Mam?

0:28:34 > 0:28:35- Almost!

0:28:36 > 0:28:39- Yes - it was almost as good - as Nain's bara brith!

0:28:39 > 0:28:43- If you want to hear the truth, - there's no place like home!

0:28:44 > 0:28:47- Dr Olwen Williams - is someone who moved to St Asaph.

0:28:47 > 0:28:52- She and Paul Lloyd, her partner, - bought a Georgian house there.

0:28:52 > 0:28:56- Aled Sam visited the house - to have a chat with Olwen.

0:28:58 > 0:29:02- For help to follow the programme, - head to the website...

0:29:05 > 0:29:07- ..or download the Dal Ati app.

0:29:20 > 0:29:22- This Georgian house...

0:29:22 > 0:29:26- ..belongs to Dr Olwen Williams - and Paul Lloyd, her partner.

0:29:26 > 0:29:30- Paul has a studio here - and he renovated the house.

0:29:31 > 0:29:34- They both influenced - the interior design.

0:29:34 > 0:29:35- The large rooms...

0:29:36 > 0:29:40- ..are full of interesting items, - including Paul's work.

0:29:42 > 0:29:44- What made you choose this house?

0:29:44 > 0:29:46- It met many of my requirements.

0:29:47 > 0:29:51- I wanted a garden - and a house which had many rooms.

0:29:51 > 0:29:56- We didn't have children then - and we still don't have children...

0:29:56 > 0:30:01- ..but we thought we'd have lots of - guests, if we moved to North Wales.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04- We were right - - the house is full every weekend.

0:30:12 > 0:30:16- What, apart from the size, - drew you to the house?

0:30:16 > 0:30:20- It's a Georgian house - and I love Georgian design.

0:30:20 > 0:30:22- The proportions are fantastic.

0:30:23 > 0:30:24- The location is perfect.

0:30:25 > 0:30:30- Though it's in the countryside - it also meets our final criterion.

0:30:30 > 0:30:36- That criterion was to have a house - within walking distance of a pub.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38- That's the honest truth.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41- We looked for that - in every single house.

0:30:41 > 0:30:45- Who cares where it is - it must be - within walking distance of a pub!

0:30:46 > 0:30:48- We love to go for a pint, - in the evening.

0:30:49 > 0:30:51- This house fitted all our criteria.

0:30:53 > 0:30:57- Is it easy to adapt a Georgian house - to modern living?

0:30:57 > 0:30:58- Yes, I think so.

0:30:59 > 0:31:04- Our taste differs from that of - most people who buy Georgian houses.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08- As you can see, - some of the rooms are very modern.

0:31:08 > 0:31:10- Some have an art deco flavour.

0:31:11 > 0:31:15- Other rooms include touches - of art nouveau and Arts And Crafts.

0:31:15 > 0:31:19- We've tried to preserve - the Georgian features.

0:31:19 > 0:31:24- We haven't added - any brand new features.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27- What about your colour scheme?

0:31:27 > 0:31:29- This red is very bright.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31- It's bright but also warm.

0:31:31 > 0:31:36- Yes. I'm very fond of white, - as a canvas for Paul's work.

0:31:36 > 0:31:40- We have what is, more or less, - a black and white room.

0:31:41 > 0:31:44- Bright colours - reflect our personalities.

0:31:45 > 0:31:48- We're both extroverts - and we're quite bubbly.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52- We want to live in an environment - which complements that.

0:32:08 > 0:32:11- Did you knock - these two rooms into one?

0:32:11 > 0:32:14- No, I think this was done - in the 1970s.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17- There was a pantry over here.

0:32:18 > 0:32:21- There was a corridor here - and a door there.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23- This is the heart of our home.

0:32:24 > 0:32:28- We live here. Our cat and dog - are with us all the time.

0:32:29 > 0:32:32- I enjoy spending time here - more than any other room.

0:32:48 > 0:32:53- This wide hallway suggests to me - the original owners were wealthy.

0:32:53 > 0:32:59- Only the rich could afford to - dedicate so much space to a hallway.

0:32:59 > 0:33:03- Look at this fantastic floor - and these wide stone slabs.

0:33:03 > 0:33:07- Everything here echoes - the original, Georgian design.

0:33:08 > 0:33:12- The kitchen and the lounge - we saw earlier are through there.

0:33:12 > 0:33:14- This is the main lounge.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16- Beyond it is the dining room.

0:33:17 > 0:33:19- It's like entering a cave.

0:33:19 > 0:33:24- It could certainly be described - as whiter than white.

0:33:27 > 0:33:31- Everything looks better - against a white background.

0:33:31 > 0:33:34- This is a fusion - of several design periods.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37- The sofa and two chairs are modern.

0:33:37 > 0:33:41- It's a fascinating collection - of individual pieces.

0:33:43 > 0:33:46- No two pieces of glasswork - are the same style.

0:33:46 > 0:33:49- It's an interesting collection.

0:33:50 > 0:33:52- There's a boat in the fireplace.

0:33:53 > 0:33:56- It's a two-bar electric fire, - in essence...

0:33:57 > 0:34:01- ..but it becomes a work of art - when you encase the fire in a boat.

0:34:02 > 0:34:05- You can admire it - with a smile on your face.

0:34:05 > 0:34:07- It's very camp.

0:34:07 > 0:34:09- The dining area is over here.

0:34:10 > 0:34:13- This is my favourite - piece of furniture in the house.

0:34:14 > 0:34:15- What a magnificent table.

0:34:16 > 0:34:18- Look at the legs!

0:34:18 > 0:34:22- There's a variety of chairs here. - Each one is a design classic.

0:34:23 > 0:34:27- They would take their place - in any room and in any period.

0:34:37 > 0:34:41- Can you foresee a time - when you won't live here?

0:34:42 > 0:34:43- Yes. The time will come.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46- This is a big house for two people.

0:34:46 > 0:34:49- When we move, - I love the idea of a self-build.

0:34:49 > 0:34:52- Something like the German Huf Haus.

0:34:53 > 0:34:55- This house - was built as a family home...

0:34:56 > 0:34:58- ..and that's what it should be.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00- That's why we must move from here.

0:35:01 > 0:35:03- I want someone else - to have fun here...

0:35:04 > 0:35:06- ..just like we've had fun here.

0:35:08 > 0:35:12- Stay tuned for a chat about learning - Welsh in the Vale Of Clwyd...

0:35:13 > 0:35:16- ..a peek inside - a local woman's wardrobe...

0:35:17 > 0:35:21- ..and a trip to the castle - with Aled Sam.

0:35:36 > 0:35:38- Hello again!

0:35:38 > 0:35:42- Let's meet a colourful lady - called Julie Howatson-Broster.

0:35:42 > 0:35:45- She owns a beauty salon in Denbigh.

0:35:45 > 0:35:48- I met her a few years ago - for the Cwpwrdd Dillad series.

0:35:50 > 0:35:54- Julie Howatson-Broster - owns a beauty salon in Denbigh.

0:35:55 > 0:35:58- What better way to start the day - than with a manicure?

0:36:00 > 0:36:02- I love clothes.

0:36:02 > 0:36:03- Clothes are my life.

0:36:04 > 0:36:06- That's a very sad confession - to make!

0:36:12 > 0:36:18- Julie has always loved clothes - and she changes her look constantly.

0:36:23 > 0:36:25- Where does it stem from, Julie?

0:36:25 > 0:36:27- Did you inherit it from somewhere?

0:36:27 > 0:36:29- Did you inherit it from somewhere?- - From my mother, probably.

0:36:29 > 0:36:33- She made a lot of her own clothes, - in the early 1970s.

0:36:33 > 0:36:37- A lot of people made - their own clothes, in those days.

0:36:37 > 0:36:40- My brother and I - tended to wear the same things.

0:36:41 > 0:36:45- Well, no, he didn't wear dresses - but the colours were similar.

0:36:45 > 0:36:49- There are photos of us - wearing co-ordinating colours.

0:36:49 > 0:36:51- Very cute!

0:36:51 > 0:36:53- They're great.

0:36:53 > 0:36:55- Did you do this yourself?

0:36:55 > 0:36:56- Did you do this yourself?- - Yes. They're quite nice.

0:36:57 > 0:36:59- My husband doesn't agree...

0:36:59 > 0:37:03- ..even though he now - sleeps with five women, not just me!

0:37:03 > 0:37:04- He should be chuffed.

0:37:04 > 0:37:06- He should be chuffed.- - They don't do much, though.

0:37:06 > 0:37:08- Where shall we start?

0:37:08 > 0:37:10- Where shall we start?- - Let's start here.

0:37:11 > 0:37:14- Some of the things in here - mean a lot to me.

0:37:14 > 0:37:17- This means a lot to me - but I hate it!

0:37:17 > 0:37:19- You hate your wedding dress?

0:37:19 > 0:37:23- I wore it ten years ago - and it looks so fussy.

0:37:23 > 0:37:26- I'm glad - I didn't go for a meringue.

0:37:27 > 0:37:31- At least it's straight, - which suits me because I'm tall.

0:37:32 > 0:37:34- It's just far too fussy.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38- This is very sentimental.

0:37:38 > 0:37:41- This belonged to my mother.

0:37:41 > 0:37:42- This belonged to my mother.- - It's a 1960s coat.

0:37:43 > 0:37:45- Is the dress vintage, too?

0:37:45 > 0:37:47- Is the dress vintage, too?- - No, a friend of mine made it.

0:37:47 > 0:37:50- I bought the beads - in a second hand store.

0:38:04 > 0:38:07- I wore this dress when I was little.

0:38:09 > 0:38:11- These were my first shoes.

0:38:12 > 0:38:15- I only have one - - its partner must have walked away!

0:38:15 > 0:38:18- This is my son's first shoe.

0:38:20 > 0:38:23- Your shoe and your son's shoe - are very similar.

0:38:25 > 0:38:27- This is lovely!

0:38:27 > 0:38:28- Yes, it is nice.

0:38:31 > 0:38:33- It's really tiny!

0:38:33 > 0:38:35- Yes, considering its price tag.

0:38:35 > 0:38:40- The smallest item in the wardrobe - was also the most expensive.

0:38:40 > 0:38:41- Isn't that terrible?

0:38:41 > 0:38:43- Isn't that terrible?- - No, it's fine.

0:38:43 > 0:38:46- It's great with long boots, - for the men.

0:38:48 > 0:38:50- I hope my husband likes it!

0:38:50 > 0:38:52- It's great. It's like a corset.

0:38:52 > 0:38:54- It pulls you in.

0:38:54 > 0:38:58- Zip it up and your tummy is flat. - It's fantastic!

0:38:58 > 0:39:00- I think - that's why it was so expensive.

0:39:02 > 0:39:04- What do we have - in the next wardrobe?

0:39:05 > 0:39:07- Wow!

0:39:12 > 0:39:15- These are fantastic. - They're comfortable.

0:39:16 > 0:39:17- Are they new?

0:39:17 > 0:39:18- Are they new?- - Yes.

0:39:25 > 0:39:28- I wore these - with one of those shirts...

0:39:29 > 0:39:33- ..and my granny said, - "Julie, you look like my mother."

0:39:33 > 0:39:34- I thought, "Oh, gosh!"

0:39:35 > 0:39:37- She told me not to take offence.

0:39:37 > 0:39:42- She remembers her mother wearing - high collars and boots, like these.

0:39:42 > 0:39:43- Cute!

0:39:46 > 0:39:48- Isn't that fantastic?

0:39:48 > 0:39:53- I stayed at the Sanderson Hotel - in London last year...

0:39:53 > 0:39:56- ..and they had a sofa - shaped like this.

0:39:56 > 0:39:59- I walked in, clutching this bag.

0:40:00 > 0:40:01- It was funny.

0:40:02 > 0:40:05- The staff noticed - that my bag matched the furniture!

0:40:06 > 0:40:07- It was hilarious!

0:40:07 > 0:40:10- It's Kookai. It wasn't expensive.

0:40:23 > 0:40:25- Oh, Julie! That was nice.

0:40:26 > 0:40:29- I'm in the Popeth Cymraeg centre - with Ioan Talfryn.

0:40:30 > 0:40:33- Here he is, in his smart pink shirt.

0:40:33 > 0:40:37- Ioan, you're the Chief Executive - of Popeth Cymraeg.

0:40:37 > 0:40:41- Yes. Popeth Cymraeg is a body - which teaches Welsh to adults.

0:40:43 > 0:40:48- We chose a name which is accessible - for people from outside the area.

0:40:48 > 0:40:53- The name is Popeth Cymraeg in Welsh - and in English it's Welsh Unlimited.

0:40:53 > 0:40:57- It suggests that, if you speak Welsh - there are no boundaries.

0:40:58 > 0:40:59- There are no limits.

0:40:59 > 0:41:04- Welsh Unlimited offers Welsh classes - in the community...

0:41:04 > 0:41:07- ..across a large area - of North Wales.

0:41:08 > 0:41:10- This morning, we'll begin...

0:41:11 > 0:41:15- ..by learning to cancel - or postpone arrangements.

0:41:18 > 0:41:22- Why did you choose Denbigh - as your headquarters?

0:41:22 > 0:41:28- I did some research into the status - of the language in the North East...

0:41:28 > 0:41:31- ..to find out - where I should hold Welsh classes.

0:41:32 > 0:41:36- I tried to hold Welsh classes - in some villages...

0:41:36 > 0:41:40- ..and I found it was impossible - to run Welsh classes there...

0:41:41 > 0:41:44- ..because everyone - already spoke Welsh!

0:41:44 > 0:41:47- I had to find my target areas.

0:41:48 > 0:41:49- I did a lot of research...

0:41:50 > 0:41:53- ..and I realized that Welsh - had retreated hugely.

0:41:54 > 0:41:58- I wanted to raise the profile - of the Welsh language...

0:41:58 > 0:42:00- ..and help people learn Welsh...

0:42:00 > 0:42:04- ..and blend into - Welsh-speaking communities.

0:42:04 > 0:42:07- In this area, - on that side of the A525...

0:42:07 > 0:42:12- ..you'd find villages which are - completely English-speaking...

0:42:12 > 0:42:17- ..and on this side, there are - completely Welsh-speaking villages.

0:42:17 > 0:42:20- Denbigh is sandwiched between them.

0:42:20 > 0:42:22- I'm sorry, unfortunately...

0:42:22 > 0:42:25- I'm sorry, unfortunately...- - Mae'n ddrwg gynna i, yn anffodus...

0:42:26 > 0:42:27- ..I can't come...

0:42:27 > 0:42:29- ..I can't come...- - ..dw i ddim yn medru dod...

0:42:30 > 0:42:31- ..to the Tupperware party.

0:42:31 > 0:42:32- ..to the Tupperware party.- - ..i'r parti Tupperware.

0:42:33 > 0:42:34- Drat!

0:42:35 > 0:42:39- Is there a good range of activities - for Welsh learners locally?

0:42:40 > 0:42:44- Yes. Many events are held - through the medium of Welsh.

0:42:44 > 0:42:45- The problem is...

0:42:46 > 0:42:50- ..the gap between learners' needs - and Welsh-speakers' needs.

0:42:51 > 0:42:54- The level of Welsh - is generally too advanced.

0:42:55 > 0:42:59- That gap is being bridged by us - and Menter Iaith...

0:43:00 > 0:43:04- ..when we organize activities where - learners can use their Welsh...

0:43:05 > 0:43:09- ..in Welsh activities where you - don't need a PhD in Welsh...

0:43:09 > 0:43:13- ..to be able to understand - what's going on!

0:43:14 > 0:43:16- More and more of that - is happening...

0:43:16 > 0:43:21- ..but we need much more investment - from the Welsh Government.

0:43:22 > 0:43:24- I'm sorry but, unfortunately...

0:43:24 > 0:43:27- ..I can't come - to the party tonight.

0:43:28 > 0:43:30- ..dw i ddim yn medru dod - i'r parti heno.
