0:00:44 > 0:00:48- ..there are remarkable objects - in every corner of Wales.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51- I look forward to seeing them all.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53- Welcome to Caru Casglu.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10- ..a house full of owls...
0:01:12 > 0:01:16- ..but we start with a collection - of classic clothes.
0:01:20 > 0:01:25- I'm in Pontypridd to meet - the renowned harpist Meinir Heulyn.
0:01:26 > 0:01:27- She has toured the world...
0:01:28 > 0:01:32- ..accompanying some big names - from the world of classical music.
0:01:32 > 0:01:37- Luciano Pavarotti, Bryn Terfel and - Kiri te Kanawa, to name but a few.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40- To do that, - you can't just wear any old thing.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43- That's why Meinir - has a fine collection of clothes.
0:01:54 > 0:01:55- Hello!
0:01:55 > 0:01:57- Hello!- - Hello, Meinir. How are you?
0:01:58 > 0:01:59- Fine, thanks. Come in.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00- Fine, thanks. Come in.- - Where are the clothes?
0:02:05 > 0:02:09- Have you always been interested - in clothes and fashion?
0:02:10 > 0:02:11- It's hard to say.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15- When I was small, Mam always said - I was a bit of a nuisance.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18- She tried to get me to wear things.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22- I'd insist they didn't match - and refused to wear them.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26- Usually, I was right, - which made her angrier still.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28- What kind of clothes do you own?
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- What kind of clothes do you own?- - I didn't collect them intentionally.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- It's accidental.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37- I was principal harpist - with the WNO for 30 years.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41- Because I played the harp, - I could wear all sorts.
0:02:41 > 0:02:46- Playing with orchestras, - you always wore black.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49- But I played solo concerts...
0:02:49 > 0:02:54- ..and toured the world - with numerous orchestras.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58- I didn't work until the evening, - so the days were free.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01- Shopping was a temptation, - but I don't do it now.
0:03:01 > 0:03:07- As such, a lot of your frocks - have interesting stories attached.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09- Come and see them then.
0:03:18 > 0:03:23- Meinir, these two frocks - are both colourful and striking.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26- They're of their time, certainly.
0:03:26 > 0:03:31- You wouldn't walk down the street - in them nowadays.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33- This one is from the 1990s.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- Two harp festivals - took place in Cardiff.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39- As we were in Wales, - I wanted a Welsh frock.
0:03:39 > 0:03:43- This was a contemporary nod - to the traditional Welsh costume.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45- This is silk, of course.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48- In my time with the WNO...
0:03:48 > 0:03:53- ..I got to know a remarkable woman - in the wardrobe department.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56- She went to St Fagans - and did some research.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- She learnt - that there were many forms...
0:03:59 > 0:04:04- ..of traditional costume - in the 19th century and earlier.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08- Noblewomen would wear - better costumes than others.
0:04:09 > 0:04:10- This one is more elegant.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13- It can either flow down...
0:04:13 > 0:04:18- ..or there's a hook and eye - to hold it up and make it prettier.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22- Just slipping into this - makes one feel special.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29- What's the story - behind the purple one next to it?
0:04:29 > 0:04:31- I was in a harp quartet...
0:04:31 > 0:04:35- ..for the BBC St David's Day concert - at St David's Hall.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39- We each got a frock, - but not much of a fee!
0:04:39 > 0:04:41- We got a frock each.
0:04:41 > 0:04:46- It's so pretty, and the colour - shimmers from pink to purple.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48- It's a lovely colour.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51- It's a changing - combination of colours
0:04:52 > 0:04:55- You have played - with some of opera's leading names.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00- Yes, naturally, - but it was just a job.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04- Sometimes, - the artistes were very famous.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07- Pavarotti, Joan Sutherland.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11- I did several operas for Decca...
0:05:11 > 0:05:14- ..at Swansea's Brangwyn Hall.
0:05:14 > 0:05:19- Pavarotti insisted on staying - in a hotel with a lift...
0:05:19 > 0:05:21- ..because he was so overweight.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25- He had to travel every day, - but the rest stayed in Swansea.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29- You've also performed - with Welsh singers.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31- Bryn Terfel, of course.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34- I remember him - coming out of college.
0:05:40 > 0:05:41- Here they are.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43- Another two ladies!
0:05:43 > 0:05:45- Another two ladies!- - These are completely different.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48- They're from the '60s and the '70s.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51- I got the green one at college.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- I studied Music - at Cardiff University.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57- It's a Sunday frock, in a way.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01- A Saturday night frock, - judging by how short it is!
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- I'm ashamed to say, - I thought it was too long!
0:06:04 > 0:06:08- I shortened it, and did it - so badly that you can see it.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11- I can see the hem at the base, yes.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14- This has since come back - into fashion.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16- It was called the Peter Pan.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19- The Peter Pan collar.
0:06:19 > 0:06:23- I understand that this - was your wedding dress.
0:06:23 > 0:06:28- I wore that when I got married - on 4 March 1974.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33- It was misty and drizzling - at Brynrhiwgaled chapel.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37- People think of a wedding dress - as being white.
0:06:37 > 0:06:42- At that time, everyone wanted - to do things differently.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44- I found the material.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48- My mother-in-law - made the frock for me.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- The children had have a lot of fun - looking at it.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53- I've had to laugh too...
0:06:54 > 0:06:57- ..thinking that I got married - in such an outfit.
0:06:57 > 0:06:58- I like it.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00- I like it.- - It's of its time, isn't it?
0:07:00 > 0:07:02- That's true of everything.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12- What are these two, Meinir?
0:07:12 > 0:07:15- Again, they're different - to each other.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Next door - to the theatre in Oxford...
0:07:19 > 0:07:22- ..there was a shop - called Annabelinda.
0:07:22 > 0:07:28- They made outfits, usually - from velvet and Liberty material.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33- I plucked up the courage to go in - and they made that.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- That one must be - close to your heart.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- It's from the time - when I started to play solo...
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- ..without the orchestra.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- You needed something tidy to wear.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47- It's a lovely frock, I must say.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51- Am I right to say - that it's a kimono next to it?
0:07:51 > 0:07:53- It is a kimono.
0:07:53 > 0:07:59- That's from the time - when the WNO began to tour abroad.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01- It's an international costume.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03- Yes, in a way.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07- The more I look at it, - it wouldn't have fitted a woman.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11- Japanese women are small and thin.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13- That was probably a man's kimono.
0:08:13 > 0:08:14- That was probably a man's kimono.- - It could well be.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20- Come this way, Ifan.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23- The last two are both black.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27- The story of my life, - 30 years in an orchestra.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30- When would you wear - black frocks like these?
0:08:30 > 0:08:36- Stage concerts, usually, - at St David's Hall or the like.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38- The Cardiff Singer of the World...
0:08:38 > 0:08:43- ..was an excuse to get a new - long black frock every two years!
0:08:43 > 0:08:49- The nearest one looks simple, - but it's very glamorous as well.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51- I love that one.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53- It's so easy to wear.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55- It fits you like a glove.
0:08:55 > 0:08:56- I like it.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59- What's special about that one?
0:08:59 > 0:09:03- That has two different tops, - because the bottom is a skirt.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06- It's silk, and it has two tops.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09- That style of waist - is called a peplum.
0:09:09 > 0:09:14- It hides a multitude of sins, - if you've put on weight and so on.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17- I had a black velvet top - to go with that skirt as well.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- About how many frocks do you own?
0:09:23 > 0:09:24- About how many frocks do you own?- - Oh, don't ask.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28- I've been stuffing them - into a wardrobe upstairs for years.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31- I haven't counted them, - but it's a fair few.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35- What does your family - think of the collection?
0:09:35 > 0:09:39- They don't know the half of it, - and I usually keep quiet.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42- What are you going to do with them?
0:09:42 > 0:09:46- No-one will open a museum in memory - of Meinir Heulyn, I know that.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50- They'll have to go - to some costume shop, probably.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53- Do you feel - a sentimental attachment to them?
0:09:53 > 0:09:56- Or can you be detached?
0:09:56 > 0:09:58- They're of their time.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01- It's the story of my life - told by clothes.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04- Thank you - for sharing your collection...
0:10:04 > 0:10:07- ..or a part of the collection!
0:10:07 > 0:10:08- Thank you.
0:10:11 > 0:10:11- .

0:10:18 > 0:10:20- Subtitles- - Subtitles
0:10:26 > 0:10:29- I'm now in Beddau - near Llantrisant...
0:10:29 > 0:10:35- ..to meet Neil Jones, - who has a fine collection of Groggs.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44- Neil, it's nice to meet you.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- How did you start to collect Groggs?
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- My wife bought me one - for my birthday.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53- A Grogg of Craig Quinnell.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57- That was the first one, - and I've been addicted ever since.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00- I've bought one a month since then.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02- Really? Every month?
0:11:02 > 0:11:05- So, the collecting began - by accident, in a way?
0:11:06 > 0:11:09- My wife and I - went to the Grogg Shop.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14- I bought one for myself, - and then I wanted another one.
0:11:15 > 0:11:20- More are made, and you like them, - and it continues.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23- This one is also signed by Craig.
0:11:23 > 0:11:28- I went down to the Vale - when Wales were training...
0:11:28 > 0:11:30- ..and got his autograph.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32- Where are these Groggs made?
0:11:33 > 0:11:35- They're made - on Broadway in Pontypridd...
0:11:36 > 0:11:37- ..by Richard in the shop.
0:11:38 > 0:11:43- They're then taken to Maesteg - to go into the kiln.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48- They've got a factory in Maesteg - where they are painted.
0:11:48 > 0:11:53- So, they're made in Wales - for people from Wales, like you.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57- There are collectors - all over the world, I think.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00- But most collectors are Welsh.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02- About how many do you have now?
0:12:03 > 0:12:07- I have 350 to 400 Groggs now.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10- I'm not exactly sure, - but something like that.
0:12:11 > 0:12:12- Shall we go to see the collection?
0:12:12 > 0:12:13- Shall we go to see the collection?- - Yes, no problem.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15- Lead the way.
0:12:20 > 0:12:25- I must say, Neil, - this is a remarkable collection.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30- One thing that's immediately obvious - is the variety.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32- It's not just Welsh rugby players.
0:12:32 > 0:12:33- It's not just Welsh rugby players.- - No.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36- They're from many countries.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39- I have Groggs of French players.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41- Bastareaud.
0:12:42 > 0:12:47- Ireland, New Zealand - at the bottom, England.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50- You've got some of Nigel Owens.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52- The world's best referee.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54- A couple of different Groggs - of Nigel.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57- He's a massive character - in the game.
0:12:57 > 0:12:58- Yes, he is.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02- And they're all - such good likenesses.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04- With the card in his pocket.
0:13:05 > 0:13:06- Wow! Remarkable.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09- You have footballers here too.
0:13:09 > 0:13:10- Yes, Gareth Bale.
0:13:11 > 0:13:12- I'm a big Liverpool fan.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- You're not, are you? Liverpool?
0:13:16 > 0:13:20- Carragher, Gerrard, Dalglish, - and a couple from Man U.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22- I'm glad to hear it. Who?
0:13:22 > 0:13:24- Cantona, Rooney...
0:13:24 > 0:13:26- And Georgie Best.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29- How much does one Grogg cost?
0:13:30 > 0:13:31- They all vary.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36- A Grogg like this one, - in a Welsh shirt...
0:13:36 > 0:13:39- ..is in the region of 70 to 80.
0:13:40 > 0:13:45- But a Lions Grogg is about 150.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51- The big ones can be 300 to 400.
0:13:51 > 0:13:52- Can they really?
0:13:54 > 0:14:00- Some of them, like Martyn Williams - in the BaaBaas bust, are about 500.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04- I like the Liam Williams one, - if you could pass it down.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07- That's a recent one, I'd say.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09- Yes, in the Lions shirt.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12- That's a perfect depiction - of Liam Williams.
0:14:12 > 0:14:16- Blood pouring down his face, - but still playing on.
0:14:16 > 0:14:17- It's a valuable collection, Neil.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20- It's a valuable collection, Neil.- - Yes, my children's inheritance!
0:14:21 > 0:14:24- What do the children - think of your collection?
0:14:24 > 0:14:26- I have two daughters.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30- Mali is three, - and Megan is eight next month.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32- Megan is mad keen on rugby.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36- She's been to the shop - many times, and she likes them.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39- Mali thinks they're chess pieces...
0:14:40 > 0:14:42- ..and wants to play with them.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44- But they're not allowed - in this room.
0:14:45 > 0:14:46- You close the door.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49- Yes, or they'd all be smashed!
0:14:50 > 0:14:52- They're worth too much - to be damaged.
0:14:52 > 0:14:58- Richard, who makes them, is clearly - an Only Fools And Horses fan.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01- Yes, they do Rodney and Del Boy.
0:15:01 > 0:15:07- They started doing Uncle Albert - and Trig before Christmas as well.
0:15:07 > 0:15:12- I see Muhammad Ali at the back, - the world-famous boxer.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14- That must be valuable.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17- They haven't done many boxers.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20- Muhammad Ali, one of Mike Tyson.
0:15:20 > 0:15:25- Am I right in thinking that lots - of these are limited editions?
0:15:26 > 0:15:30- Years ago, they produced runs - of only ten or eleven.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32- Gavin Henson, for example.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36- Only twelve of these were made.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38- He's in the Toulon shirt.
0:15:38 > 0:15:42- Now that they're so popular - and collectable...
0:15:42 > 0:15:44- ..the runs are 300 to 500.
0:15:45 > 0:15:50- With the Lions, - 125 of each Grogg is produced.
0:15:51 > 0:15:55- So, they go up in value - whenever a run sells out?
0:15:55 > 0:16:01- When they sell out, - the second-hand market is massive.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03- They sell for a lot more.
0:16:03 > 0:16:04- Where do you get yours?
0:16:05 > 0:16:09- People sell them - on Facebook or eBay, mainly.
0:16:10 > 0:16:15- If you had to choose just one - to rescue in an emergency...
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- ..which one would it be, and why?
0:16:18 > 0:16:20- That must be a tough question.
0:16:21 > 0:16:27- Gavin Henson in the Toulon shirt, - because only twelve were made.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34- Gavin's a character, - and so talented.
0:16:34 > 0:16:38- One of the best players - I've seen playing the game.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42- No wonder he's at the front there.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45- I see several Sam Warburtons.
0:16:46 > 0:16:47- Are you a fan of him as well?
0:16:47 > 0:16:49- Are you a fan of him as well?- - Sam's the ultimate professional.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53- He's also a double Lions captain.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55- I love looking at this collection.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- I could stay here all day - looking at various characters.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01- What next, and who next?
0:17:01 > 0:17:05- The next Grogg is Sam again, - carrying a lion.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07- As he came out of the tunnel?
0:17:08 > 0:17:09- Yes, in New Zealand.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12- Then maybe Julian Savea.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15- Do you think - we'll have a Grogg made of us?
0:17:15 > 0:17:16- Um, no!
0:17:16 > 0:17:18- Um, no!- - I don't think so either.
0:17:19 > 0:17:20- Thank you very much.
0:17:20 > 0:17:25- It's been a pleasure to meet you - and to see your special collection.
0:17:27 > 0:17:32- I'm now in Dinas Cross, - Pembrokeshire, to meet Mair Davis.
0:17:32 > 0:17:38- A little bird tells me that she has - a special collection of owls.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43- I can see owls already.
0:17:43 > 0:17:48- There are three here, - four, five, over ten outside.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50- How many are there inside?
0:17:52 > 0:17:55- Hello, Mair. How are you?
0:17:55 > 0:17:56- Welcome.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00- I can see owls outside, - so who knows how many are inside.
0:18:00 > 0:18:01- There are a few.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05- Well, well, well.
0:18:05 > 0:18:06- I can see loads already.
0:18:07 > 0:18:08- Yes.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12- Well, Mair, one thing's certain - - this house is full of owls.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17- When did you start collecting?
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- Actually, Cled started me off.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21- He went to school in Cwm Gwaun.
0:18:22 > 0:18:23- Your husband?
0:18:23 > 0:18:24- Your husband?- - That's right.
0:18:24 > 0:18:28- At playtime, - they were allowed into the woods.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30- One day, he came across - an owl's nest.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34- I'm not sure if there were chicks, - but the mother came back.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37- He came down from the tree sharpish!
0:18:38 > 0:18:43- He always said that owls - were pretty and clever.
0:18:43 > 0:18:48- I asked how they were clever, - and he said that they fly silently.
0:18:49 > 0:18:54- I bought this one for him in London, - at the Ideal Home Exhibition.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58- So, you bought that, the first one, - but for your husband.
0:18:58 > 0:18:59- Feel how heavy it is.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02- Would you fancy - carrying it all day?
0:19:03 > 0:19:04- It is heavy.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06- It is heavy.- - How could I have been so stupid?
0:19:06 > 0:19:11- I'd have one longer arm - if I hadn't kept swapping hands.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13- When would this have been?
0:19:13 > 0:19:16- When would this have been?- - I think it was 1972.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21- This was the first one, - then the collection grew and grew.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26- What's in this envelope?
0:19:26 > 0:19:28- This is a mystery.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30- It came by post.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32- I had no idea what it was.
0:19:32 > 0:19:36- On closer inspection, - I found a tiny owl.
0:19:37 > 0:19:38- Imagine the work that took.
0:19:38 > 0:19:39- Imagine the work that took.- - It's very nice.
0:19:39 > 0:19:40- Lovely.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43- But you don't know who sent it?
0:19:43 > 0:19:45- But you don't know who sent it?- - I don't like to ask people.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49- But it's a lovely little object.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52- After seeing this, - someone might own up.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57- I'd be delighted - so that I can thank them properly.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01- There are more here, and there.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04- And here, and over there.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06- There are three here.
0:20:06 > 0:20:07- There are three here.- - And three here.
0:20:07 > 0:20:08- I missed those.
0:20:09 > 0:20:10- And one by the fire. A jigsaw!
0:20:10 > 0:20:12- And one by the fire. A jigsaw!- - How many pieces?
0:20:12 > 0:20:13- I've no idea.
0:20:14 > 0:20:15- It's 1,000 pieces.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20- There are a few more here.
0:20:20 > 0:20:21- A few?!
0:20:21 > 0:20:23- A few?!- - A few, yes.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25- That cupboard's full!
0:20:25 > 0:20:29- That cupboard's full!- - Yes, more than full, actually.
0:20:29 > 0:20:30- What a collection!
0:20:31 > 0:20:33- Look at this one.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36- Speak no evil, - hear no evil, see no evil.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39- The big ones at the back are pretty.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43- No, that isn't the whisky!
0:20:44 > 0:20:45- Did you say whisky?
0:20:45 > 0:20:46- Yes, this one.
0:20:48 > 0:20:49- So, there's whisky in it?
0:20:50 > 0:20:53- Of course, that's proper china.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56- Someone drank this one dry!
0:20:56 > 0:20:57- Did you buy these?
0:20:57 > 0:20:59- Did you buy these?- - Most of them are gifts.
0:20:59 > 0:21:04- I was a teacher at Goodwick, - teaching four to seven-year-olds.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08- One of them got me an owl, - and that opened the floodgates!
0:21:09 > 0:21:13- Rows and rows of these - were gifts from my pupils.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16- There are stuffed owls behind you.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18- Where did you get those?
0:21:18 > 0:21:20- They were gifts as well.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- One from my husband, - one from his brother.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26- I'd say these are valuable.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28- I'd say these are valuable.- - Yes, I think they're quite rare.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31- Have you got more in the next room?
0:21:31 > 0:21:32- Have you got more in the next room?- - Do you want to see them?
0:21:33 > 0:21:34- After you.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36- What was that? Oh, never mind.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38- Another owl?
0:21:38 > 0:21:39- Another owl?- - No, no!
0:21:41 > 0:21:44- The last time I counted, - I had a thousand items.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48- This is special, - bought for me by my brother-in-law.
0:21:49 > 0:21:54- When it's on the wall, the eyes - appear to follow you as you pass.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58- It changes with the light.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00- I see what you mean.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02- What about this one here?
0:22:03 > 0:22:07- I used this as a puppet - to teach Welsh to the children.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11- I used to tell them - that this owl only spoke Welsh.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15- They could ask questions, - like are you happy?
0:22:15 > 0:22:18- Then the owl would reply.
0:22:18 > 0:22:19- Is it raining?
0:22:20 > 0:22:21- No.
0:22:21 > 0:22:25- Then they had to say yes or no.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27- And the one you have there.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30- Oh, this one's a favourite.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32- Everyone likes it when they see it.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34- Everyone likes it when they see it.- - Where did you get it?
0:22:34 > 0:22:38- In Swansea, when Debenhams - opened the first time.
0:22:39 > 0:22:40- But that's years ago now.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43- Cled doesn't like shopping.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45- He told me to choose what I wanted.
0:22:46 > 0:22:50- I didn't need anything, - but I saw this and had to have it.
0:22:50 > 0:22:56- What does Cled think - of the ever-growing collection?
0:22:56 > 0:23:00- He doesn't say much, - but it's his fault that it started.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05- Everyone kept buying them, - but it's slowing down now.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08- There aren't many similar ones.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12- Are you going to collect more, - or is that it now?
0:23:12 > 0:23:14- It depends, you see.
0:23:14 > 0:23:15- It depends, you see.- - On what?
0:23:15 > 0:23:16- If I fancy one.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19- If I fancy one.- - Mair, thank you for the welcome.
0:23:20 > 0:23:21- Call again.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23- Call again.- - It's been a pleasure to meet you.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27- Thank you for sharing - your collection of owls.
0:23:27 > 0:23:28- It was nice to meet you.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37- Subtitles- - Subtitles
0:23:43 > 0:23:46- I started to learn Welsh in 2011.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48- Five years ago.
0:23:49 > 0:23:53- I found it easier - to learn Welsh than English.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57- There aren't enough opportunities...
0:23:57 > 0:24:00- ..for me to use my Welsh - in Newport.
0:24:01 > 0:24:06- I'd like to develop my oral skills.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10- I find the North Wales accent - a little bit difficult...
0:24:11 > 0:24:13- ..because I live in South Wales.
0:24:13 > 0:24:17- I hope I'll be able - to understand everything.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21- If people speak slowly...
0:24:21 > 0:24:24- ..it won't be a problem.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27- I'm really excited.
0:24:27 > 0:24:31- I'm looking forward - to meeting the family...
0:24:31 > 0:24:34- ..and to meeting new people.
0:24:40 > 0:24:44- The Jones family - live on Bryn Gwynt farm...
0:24:44 > 0:24:48- ..and they run Becws Islyn bakery - in Aberdaron.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51- I'm Geraint - and this is Gillian, my wife.
0:24:51 > 0:24:55- We live in Bryn Gwynt, - Anelog, Aberdaron.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58- Our son is a farmer - and Fflur is a student.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01- I started farming when I was young.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04- I didn't go to college. - I didn't fancy it.
0:25:04 > 0:25:07- I wanted to work straightaway, - so I started farming.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12- We bought the bakery - three years ago last November.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15- We had no experience of baking.
0:25:15 > 0:25:21- We just bought it, - having given it very little thought.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25- We went for it - and things have gone quite well.
0:25:27 > 0:25:31- We bake bread and cakes every day - and we do a few deliveries.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35- I get up at 6.30am - to go down with Mam...
0:25:35 > 0:25:39- ..to bake cakes and help pack them.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45- We're lucky because we see more - and more visitors in the village.
0:25:46 > 0:25:50- Tourists who come here like to hear - Welsh being spoken in the bakery.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55- I think people return here - because the village is so Welsh.
0:25:57 > 0:26:02- I've thought a lot about welcoming - this Welsh speaker from Thailand.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08- What sort of Welsh accent - will he have?
0:26:08 > 0:26:10- I can't wait to meet him.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13- Hello. How are you?
0:26:13 > 0:26:15- I'm Supachai.
0:26:15 > 0:26:16- I'm Geraint.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28- Welcome to Bryn Gwynt.- - Thank you for the welcome.
0:26:28 > 0:26:33- I just hope you understand our Welsh - because we don't speak English.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35- Gwion doesn't speak English.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37- Gwion doesn't speak English.- - No. Not at all.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41- I hope you enjoy your time here.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44- I'll take you out - to have a look around.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48- We'll go to the bakery tomorrow - to bake some bread.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50- I look forward to baking bread.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54- I have some experience of baking.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58- I made some bread but I burnt it.
0:26:59 > 0:27:00- We don't want that!
0:27:03 > 0:27:08- To be honest, I'm really nervous - but I'm very excited too.
0:27:08 > 0:27:12- They're a very nice family, - really welcoming.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15- Very welcoming.
0:27:15 > 0:27:20- They speak Welsh - with a different accent to me.
0:27:21 > 0:27:26- It's a great chance - for me to learn something different.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28- To learn real Welsh.
0:27:29 > 0:27:34- Supachai helps Geraint - deliver goods from the bakery.
0:27:34 > 0:27:39- Take those to Ty Newydd - and that's Y Gegin Fawr's order.
0:27:39 > 0:27:40- Y Gegin Fawr?
0:27:40 > 0:27:42- Y Gegin Fawr?- - It's a cafe.
0:27:42 > 0:27:43- Ty Newydd?
0:27:43 > 0:27:45- Ty Newydd?- - It's a hotel.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49- Ty Newydd is on the seafront.
0:27:49 > 0:27:54- I'll load the van while you do that. - Then we'll do the deliveries.

0:28:27 > 0:28:30- A lot of people here - speak Welsh to me.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34- It's a great opportunity - for me to practise my Welsh.
0:28:34 > 0:28:35- Excellent.

0:29:19 > 0:29:20- No, not every day.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22- We deliver every other day.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31- I didn't expect his Welsh - to be so good.
0:29:31 > 0:29:34- He speaks the language really well.
0:29:34 > 0:29:36- It's easy to get on with him.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40- I feel as if - I've known him for a while.

0:30:51 > 0:30:53- I doubt it!

0:45:51 > 0:45:52- Are these too big?
