0:01:230:01:26

0:02:080:02:10

-He's still in Spain

-as far as I'm aware.

0:02:110:02:14

-I'm serious

-about buying the business.

0:02:140:02:16

-It'll be much easier coming down

-from the flat to the shop.

0:02:170:02:20

-We're all serious, Sophie.

0:02:210:02:23

-I can't get any sense from Philip.

0:02:230:02:26

-Bye.

0:02:270:02:29

-Angharad, what a lovely house.

0:02:340:02:37

-The view from here is wonderful.

0:02:370:02:39

-Yes, it's nice to wake up

-and see a fine day like today.

0:02:390:02:42

0:02:430:02:45

-We'll go for a walk later on.

0:02:450:02:47

-Let's finish

-these cups of tea first.

0:02:470:02:49

-Tell me,

-since when have you been here?

0:02:490:02:53

-It took us

-a year and a half to build it.

0:02:530:02:56

-We finally moved in in May 2015.

0:02:570:03:00

-You built this from scratch.

0:03:010:03:04

-You did all the planning.

0:03:040:03:06

-Yes, it was a lot of work.

0:03:060:03:08

-Thinking up the plans

-and thinking where we'd put things.

0:03:090:03:12

-It came along nicely in the end.

0:03:120:03:15

-We're finally here at last.

0:03:150:03:18

-What's it like

-living here in Bethesda?

0:03:180:03:20

-Is there a close community here?

0:03:200:03:22

-Is there a close community here?

-

-Yes, there really is.

0:03:220:03:24

-I'm very glad I live here.

-Everyone's very nice.

0:03:240:03:27

-We've been here

-for almost ten years now.

0:03:280:03:30

-There's a lovely community here.

0:03:300:03:32

-There's a lot going on here, after

-Neuadd Ogwen opened especially.

0:03:320:03:37

-Loads of things happen there...

0:03:380:03:40

-..gigs, kids' films,

-all kinds of things.

0:03:400:03:43

-There's a coffee morning

-every minute here, or so I'm told.

0:03:440:03:47

-There's a market, Ogwen market.

-The school is just over the road.

0:03:480:03:52

-We love walking our kids to school

-every morning.

0:03:520:03:56

-It's very Welsh here.

0:03:570:03:58

-It's very Welsh here.

-

-Yes, it is.

0:03:580:03:59

-I love that.

0:03:590:04:01

-Everyone speaks Welsh. Everyone

-on this estate speaks Welsh.

0:04:010:04:05

-It's a lovely place to live.

0:04:050:04:08

-You've played the part of Sophie

-since before going to college.

0:04:080:04:14

-How old were you

-when you started playing Sophie?

0:04:150:04:18

-I was 18.

0:04:180:04:19

-Yes.

0:04:190:04:21

-I'm not allowed to ask

-how old you are now.

0:04:210:04:24

-But, we can test your maths at home!

0:04:240:04:26

-How long have you played Sophie

-in Rownd a Rownd?

0:04:270:04:30

-Almost 20 years.

0:04:300:04:31

-Almost 20 years.

-

-Wow.

0:04:310:04:33

-A stupid question - do you enjoy it?

0:04:330:04:36

-I think it's quite obvious

-that I must do!

0:04:360:04:39

-Yes, I love it.

0:04:390:04:40

-For someone

-who doesn't know Sophie...

0:04:400:04:44

-..what has Sophie been through

-in the last twenty years?

0:04:440:04:48

-She's had a busy life.

0:04:480:04:49

-She started off working in the shop

-helping with the papers.

0:04:510:04:55

-I never did a paper round,

-which is the basis of Rownd a Rownd.

0:04:550:04:59

-It's about paper rounds.

0:04:590:05:02

-Sophie cuts hair.

0:05:020:05:04

-Have you learned how to cut hair?

0:05:050:05:09

-You look like you know

-what you're doing.

0:05:090:05:12

-I've pretended for twenty years.

0:05:130:05:16

-Can I have a trim before leaving?

0:05:160:05:18

-I've only got razors

-to shave Dafydd's head.

0:05:190:05:23

-If you want that hairstyle!

0:05:230:05:25

-I did have a morning

-in a proper salon.

0:05:250:05:29

-They taught me how to blow dry.

0:05:300:05:33

-I have cut hair once.

0:05:340:05:36

-I did that

-to a character called Ken.

0:05:370:05:40

-He had a long ponytail at one time.

0:05:400:05:42

-The actor, Idris,

-decided he wanted a haircut.

0:05:430:05:47

-They used that as a storyline.

0:05:470:05:49

-I got to cut off the ponytail.

0:05:490:05:51

-I was nervous.

0:05:520:05:53

-Apart from that,

-I haven't cut any hair.

0:05:530:05:56

-Sophie has two kids.

0:05:570:05:58

-You have two kids too.

0:05:590:06:00

-Gwenno is seven years old.

0:06:010:06:04

-Gruffudd is five years old.

0:06:040:06:06

-There are 16 months

-between the two, which isn't much.

0:06:070:06:11

-They're only a year apart at school.

0:06:110:06:14

-Gruffudd is in Year 1

-and Gwenno is in Year 2.

0:06:140:06:18

-As it happens, Gwenno

-plays my daughter in Rownd a Rownd.

0:06:180:06:22

-Didn't you know that?

0:06:220:06:23

-Didn't you know that?

-

-No.

0:06:230:06:24

-Well, it's just luck.

0:06:250:06:27

-When Sophie's character was pregnant

-in the story, I happened to be too.

0:06:270:06:33

-So I didn't need

-to have a fake bump on my stomach.

0:06:330:06:37

-Gwenno was the bump.

0:06:370:06:39

-When she was born, she was a girl

-just like Sophie had.

0:06:390:06:43

-It was handy to be able

-to take her to work and I still do!

0:06:440:06:47

-I've been looking forward to this.

-Can we nose around your house?

0:06:470:06:51

-We better had. Of course you can!

0:06:510:06:53

-This is nice. You walk in and you

-get a feeling of plenty of space.

0:07:000:07:04

-You've got nice, wide stairs.

0:07:050:07:08

-There's natural wood everywhere.

-It's lovely.

0:07:080:07:11

-Yes. I hope it's welcoming

-when people come here.

0:07:120:07:16

-When you were designing...

0:07:170:07:18

-..is that what you thought

-was important when you walk in?

0:07:190:07:22

-Yes, though to be honest,

-when we designed it...

0:07:220:07:25

-..I wanted stairs

-going around the corner.

0:07:260:07:28

-In a way, this is a mistake,

-though it's a nice one.

0:07:280:07:31

-The kids' photos go all the way up.

0:07:320:07:34

-The kids' photos go all the way up.

-

-You have to put them somewhere!

0:07:340:07:36

-They get older as you go upstairs.

0:07:370:07:40

-What rooms do we have here?

0:07:400:07:43

-In front of you is the kitchen.

0:07:430:07:46

-We're there quite a lot of the time.

0:07:460:07:49

-We have a lounge here

-and then a playroom here.

0:07:490:07:53

-To your left is the office.

0:07:530:07:56

-Where shall we start?

0:07:570:07:57

-Where shall we start?

-

-The lounge.

0:07:570:07:58

-Come with me.

0:07:590:08:00

-Oh, nice!

0:08:020:08:03

-There's a view and you took

-the window around the corner.

0:08:030:08:07

-That was something special

-in the plan.

0:08:070:08:10

-We could then see the whole view.

0:08:110:08:14

-Obviously, Dafydd's put a huge TV

-in front of the window.

0:08:140:08:17

-You have to get up and look over it.

0:08:180:08:21

-You have to get up and look over it.

-

-Yes, but it still looks good.

0:08:210:08:23

-That fireplace is great.

0:08:240:08:25

-It's open

-and you can see either side of it.

0:08:250:08:28

-Yes, it's the feeling

-that the place is open-plan.

0:08:280:08:33

-This is like the house's heart.

0:08:330:08:36

-It heats the house

-and also gives it character.

0:08:360:08:40

-Can we go through?

0:08:400:08:42

-Yes.

0:08:420:08:44

-Wow, that is tidy.

0:08:450:08:48

-Do you think so?

0:08:480:08:49

-This is very organised.

0:08:490:08:51

-At the moment, but not all the time.

0:08:520:08:54

-At the moment, but not all the time.

-

-Is it because I'm here?

0:08:540:08:55

-They love playing in here.

0:08:560:08:58

-This is where they like to be,

-amongst their toys and their mess.

0:08:580:09:02

-It's great because you can open this

-up and they're a part of the house.

0:09:020:09:07

-You can also

-shut the door on the mess.

0:09:070:09:09

-That was the idea.

0:09:090:09:11

-Who's the happy character

-on that cushion?

0:09:110:09:14

-That's Dafydd's older brother.

0:09:150:09:17

-It's a gift we received from Huw,

-Uncle Huw.

0:09:170:09:21

-He gave you a gift of a cushion

-with his own face on it.

0:09:210:09:25

-He was making fun of us.

-He knew we were buying a new house.

0:09:250:09:29

-He thought we'd need new cushions

-to decorate the place!

0:09:290:09:32

-It's all very stylish

-and then Uncle Huw.

0:09:320:09:35

-Uncle Huw is stylish too!

0:09:360:09:37

-Don't laugh.

0:09:380:09:40

-Let's go to the kitchen.

0:09:410:09:44

-Fresh flowers. They make a

-difference in a house and there too.

0:09:490:09:53

-This room is so wonderful.

0:09:530:09:55

-It's a party room.

-It's a very social room.

0:10:000:10:03

-Do you do the cooking?

0:10:030:10:05

-I usually do the cooking.

0:10:050:10:07

-If there's a special occasion...

0:10:070:10:10

-..Dafydd will try

-to make a steak or something.

0:10:100:10:13

-He's good with those.

-I do the day-to-day cooking.

0:10:130:10:16

-How did you go about

-designing this kitchen?

0:10:170:10:21

-Did you choose everything or did he?

0:10:210:10:24

-I did!

0:10:240:10:25

-He got to choose the bricks

-to make the house shell.

0:10:250:10:29

-I chose the things inside.

0:10:290:10:31

-We went about

-trying to choose a design.

0:10:320:10:34

-It's an interesting story.

0:10:350:10:37

-I bought the kitchen from one of

-my fellow actors on Rownd a Rownd.

0:10:370:10:41

-Robin who plays Mathew.

0:10:420:10:43

-Robin who plays Mathew.

-

-Does he sell kitchens?

0:10:430:10:45

-No, he sells cars.

0:10:450:10:47

-When I said

-I wanted a kitchen...

0:10:470:10:49

-..he said, "Don't worry,

-I'll find you a kitchen."

0:10:490:10:53

-I think

-he sells anything to anyone!

0:10:530:10:55

-He found a guy who makes kitchens.

0:10:550:10:58

-I bought this kitchen

-from his mate in the end.

0:10:580:11:01

-It's been made for this room.

0:11:020:11:03

-We tried to design the kitchen...

0:11:030:11:06

-..so that when I stand by the sink,

-I can turn around...

0:11:070:11:12

-..and I can see the kids

-if they're playing outside...

0:11:120:11:16

-..in the lounge or in the playroom.

0:11:170:11:20

-You can see through to everywhere.

-You don't miss a trick.

0:11:200:11:24

-No, it's a good little spot.

0:11:240:11:26

-I can control everyone

-and everything.

0:11:270:11:29

-Where next? Upstairs?

0:11:290:11:30

-Where next? Upstairs?

-

-No, come and see this with me first.

0:11:300:11:33

-The "Briws Biws".

0:11:330:11:34

-The "Briws Biws".

-

-The Briws Biws?

0:11:340:11:36

-Here we are.

0:11:400:11:41

-It is puce.

0:11:410:11:42

-It is puce.

-

-Puce units.

0:11:420:11:44

-I've never heard

-the word "briws" before.

0:11:440:11:47

-A Welsh word for utility room.

0:11:470:11:49

-I think so, but I'm not sure now!

0:11:490:11:51

-I think briws is the old word

-for this kind of room...

0:11:510:11:55

-..where you wash clothes,

-keep coats and so on.

0:11:560:11:59

-It's perfect,

-all the kids' coats and shoes.

0:11:590:12:02

-You can just throw things in.

0:12:020:12:04

-Yes. We decided not to have

-a door here for some reason.

0:12:040:12:08

-If it gets messy in here, it might

-be an idea that we get one.

0:12:080:12:12

-This isn't messy.

0:12:120:12:14

-The best thing

-about this room is this.

0:12:140:12:17

-This is where the dirty clothes go.

0:12:180:12:21

-That's great. They all land there.

-Where do they come from?

0:12:210:12:24

-The bathroom is right above here.

0:12:250:12:29

-We have a cupboard in the bathroom

-where you throw dirty clothes.

0:12:290:12:34

-They land

-right next to the washing machine.

0:12:340:12:37

-I like the light.

0:12:470:12:48

-There's a lot of space

-on the landing.

0:12:530:12:56

-Yes, I like that about here.

0:12:560:12:58

-There's plenty of room to play

-or run around.

0:12:580:13:03

-It feels nice.

0:13:040:13:05

-It feels nice.

-

-It's like a five-star hotel!

0:13:050:13:08

-Thank you!

0:13:080:13:09

-How many bedrooms do you have here?

0:13:090:13:12

-How many bedrooms do you have here?

-

-There are five rooms.

0:13:120:13:14

-Mine and Dafydd's room is here.

0:13:150:13:16

-The spare room is this side.

0:13:170:13:19

-That's where Nain and Taid or

-my brother and his girlfriend stay.

0:13:190:13:23

-This room, well, it's my room.

-All my junk is in there.

0:13:240:13:28

-Gruffudd's room is one side

-and Gwenno's is the other.

0:13:300:13:34

-You have your own office

-and Dafydd has one downstairs.

0:13:340:13:37

-We share them too.

0:13:370:13:39

-I've got some of my things in there

-and I like to write in there too.

0:13:390:13:44

-I have to learn my lines too.

-I need somewhere to do that.

0:13:440:13:47

-You go in there to learn your lines.

0:13:470:13:50

-I go in there, close the door

-and talk to myself.

0:13:500:13:53

-I shout them out

-when Sophie's angry with people.

0:13:530:13:56

-Nobody can see me in there.

0:13:560:13:58

-You've got taste, Angharad.

-It's lovely.

0:14:040:14:07

-That's a big bed.

0:14:070:14:09

-Yes, I love my bed.

0:14:100:14:12

-Getting up is difficult!

0:14:120:14:14

-Do you struggle

-to find Dafydd in the bed?

0:14:150:14:17

-No, he's spreadeagled!

0:14:180:14:19

-Nice!

0:14:200:14:21

-Did you choose everything in here?

0:14:220:14:24

-Yes, the same thing again,

-quite quiet colours.

0:14:250:14:28

-There's a little puce.

0:14:290:14:31

-Look at that behind me!

0:14:310:14:33

-Are you jealous?

0:14:330:14:34

-Are you jealous?

-

-I am totally jealous.

0:14:340:14:36

-I'm sure a lot of people would be.

0:14:360:14:38

-Do you have more?

-Yes, you have more room than Dafydd.

0:14:380:14:41

-I've got about one and a half,

-Dafydd gets a small corner.

0:14:410:14:45

-Just like it should be.

0:14:450:14:46

-Just like it should be.

-

-Absolutely.

0:14:460:14:47

-There's no door.

0:14:470:14:49

-There's no door.

-

-I'm not sure if that's a mistake.

0:14:490:14:51

-Stuff tends to fall on the floor.

0:14:510:14:54

-It's very tidy today.

0:14:540:14:57

-It's time for a short break.

0:15:020:15:04

-We'll go for a look

-around the area after the break...

0:15:040:15:07

-..as it's such a nice day.

-Welcome back.

0:15:230:15:24

-I'm spending the day

-with the actress, Angharad Llwyd.

0:15:250:15:28

-After nosing around her house...

0:15:280:15:30

-..we're going for a walk

-to see this lovely area.

0:15:300:15:34

-You run along here.

-Do you do it regularly? Every day?

0:15:400:15:44

-No! Not every day.

0:15:450:15:47

-Once or twice a week.

0:15:470:15:49

-I like doing it,

-especially on a day like today.

0:15:510:15:54

-I don't run in the rain.

0:15:540:15:56

-It would ruin your hair!

0:15:560:15:58

-I like doing it.

-It's very still here.

0:15:580:16:01

-I have time to think

-and time to myself, really.

0:16:010:16:05

-What do you do as a family

-on a Sunday?

0:16:060:16:09

-Do you come for a walk?

0:16:090:16:11

-We like a walk.

0:16:110:16:12

-Usually,

-we like to take bikes with us.

0:16:130:16:15

-Dafydd loves cycling.

0:16:150:16:17

-He likes mountain biking.

0:16:170:16:19

-He taught the children

-to ride a bike at a young age.

0:16:190:16:23

-We take the bikes for a ride

-in different places.

0:16:240:16:27

-We like that.

-Unless we've gone to see the family.

0:16:270:16:30

-That happens a lot on weekends.

0:16:300:16:32

-Nice.

0:16:330:16:34

-Nice.

-

-We like the open air.

0:16:340:16:36

-There are plenty of places

-to choose from.

0:16:360:16:39

-Yes, plenty.

0:16:390:16:41

-This view is incredible.

-What can we see here?

0:16:440:16:49

-You can see quite far.

-Obviously, you can see Anglesey.

0:16:490:16:53

-You can see Penmon,

-Beaumaris, Llandegfan.

0:16:550:16:59

-Further on is Menai Bridge

-where I work.

0:16:590:17:03

-I was brought up in Llandudno. You

-were a bit further on in Denbigh.

0:17:030:17:07

-Do you miss Denbigh?

0:17:070:17:09

-I loved living in Denbigh.

0:17:090:17:11

-I adored it. It's a lovely area.

0:17:110:17:14

-There was a time

-before we built this house...

0:17:140:17:17

-..where Dafydd and I

-thought about what we'd do.

0:17:170:17:20

-We considered moving back. Living

-near my parents would be easier.

0:17:210:17:25

-But we started putting down roots.

0:17:250:17:27

-The kids started going to school,

-and I had my work, obviously.

0:17:280:17:32

-Friends are important too.

0:17:320:17:34

-We decided we'd stay at this end.

0:17:340:17:36

-There's something about living

-in the middle of the slate.

0:17:370:17:41

-These fences are incredible -

-the work that's gone into them.

0:17:420:17:45

-Stone walls and slate fences.

-It's quite raw here.

0:17:460:17:50

-It's raw countryside.

0:17:500:17:52

-This fence gave me an idea...

0:17:530:17:55

-..for the name of the drama club

-I started at Neuadd Ogwen.

0:17:560:18:00

-The drama club for adults

-has been restarted.

0:18:010:18:04

-It's called "Llechen Las"

-- Blue Slate.

0:18:040:18:07

-I didn't know what to call

-the youth drama club.

0:18:070:18:10

-I thought "Llechi Bach" -

-Small Slates.

0:18:100:18:13

-Someone told me that the correct

-name for small slates is "Crawiau."

0:18:130:18:18

-They're called Crawiau drama club.

0:18:180:18:21

-They're called Crawiau drama club.

-

-It's a good name.

0:18:210:18:22

-I've never heard that word before

-or understood its meaning.

0:18:220:18:26

-That's the meaning and we're

-meeting tonight if you fancy it.

0:18:260:18:30

-We've got a special game here

-called walking and stopping.

0:18:390:18:45

-Are we ready?

-Do you remember how to play?

0:18:470:18:50

-Stop.

0:18:520:18:53

-We play a lot of games.

0:18:560:18:58

-We do different movements

-and voices.

0:19:000:19:03

-Great.

-Would you like to be an actress?

0:19:030:19:06

-Yes.

0:19:060:19:07

-Yes.

-

-We do loads of things every time.

0:19:070:19:09

-So, it's different every time.

0:19:100:19:11

-Is it a lot of fun?

0:19:120:19:12

-Is it a lot of fun?

-

-Yes.

0:19:120:19:13

-What do you like most

-about coming here?

0:19:150:19:17

-Playing with friends and having fun.

0:19:180:19:20

-Playing with friends and having fun.

-

-Is she a nice teacher?

0:19:200:19:22

-She is.

0:19:220:19:23

-Does she shout sometimes?

0:19:230:19:25

-Does she shout sometimes?

-

-Sometimes.

0:19:250:19:26

-Would you like to be an actress

-like Angharad?

0:19:280:19:32

-Yes.

0:19:320:19:34

-Can you make a big circle for me?

0:19:350:19:38

-Angharad, I enjoyed that, I think!

0:19:380:19:41

-I'm very glad.

0:19:410:19:43

-You did well.

0:19:430:19:44

-I don't think I'm going

-to be a professional actress.

0:19:440:19:48

-I enjoyed it.

0:19:480:19:49

-How long have you been

-doing these sessions? And why?

0:19:490:19:53

-How did you start?

0:19:530:19:55

-We've been going

-for about three or four months.

0:19:550:19:58

-We started because the hall

-was looking for someone...

0:19:580:20:02

-..to do drama sessions

-with the area's children.

0:20:020:20:05

-I was asked if I was interested.

-I'm glad I said yes.

0:20:060:20:10

-I love spending time with them

-and having fun.

0:20:100:20:13

-We've done one production already

-with the Llechen Las drama club.

0:20:140:20:18

-I hope we'll have

-another production by the summer.

0:20:190:20:22

-They're a nice group.

0:20:220:20:23

-Do they remind you of yourself

-when you were younger?

0:20:240:20:27

-A little bit, although I never had

-such a thing as a drama school.

0:20:270:20:31

-They do remind me of the desire

-I had to perform, certainly.

0:20:320:20:37

-When you were that age,

-did you want to be an actress?

0:20:370:20:41

-I loved performing.

0:20:420:20:45

-I liked to write and sing.

0:20:450:20:47

-Acting was the favourite.

0:20:470:20:49

-I'm lucky to do

-what I've always enjoyed.

0:20:490:20:52

-There's one more thing

-I want to ask you...

0:20:520:20:55

-..but can we go back

-to your house first?

0:20:550:20:57

-Yes, you can relax with a cuppa.

0:20:580:20:58

-Yes, you can relax with a cuppa.

-

-I deserve one after that!

0:20:580:21:00

-Here we are. It was so nice to see

-the kids enjoying themselves.

0:21:030:21:08

-When you were younger,

-you used to be a reciter.

0:21:080:21:12

-I'm assuming this is the first

-of your three things.

0:21:120:21:16

-The things

-you'd save from the house.

0:21:160:21:18

-Yes.

0:21:190:21:20

-Assuming that the kids,

-husband and photos are safe...

0:21:200:21:24

-..these are the things I would save.

0:21:240:21:26

-This is something

-very special that I won.

0:21:270:21:30

-I won it back in 1998

-at the Bro Ogwr Eisteddfod.

0:21:300:21:33

-It's the main prize for recitation

-at the National Eisteddfod.

0:21:340:21:38

-Have you tried for it many times?

-Did you only try that year?

0:21:380:21:41

-That's the only year

-and then I gave it up.

0:21:420:21:45

-I thought, "I've got this far.

-That's enough!

0:21:450:21:48

-"Other people can have a go."

0:21:490:21:51

-Do you remember what you recited?

0:21:510:21:54

-It was a long, seven-minute piece.

0:21:540:21:58

-I can't remember the title now.

0:21:580:22:02

-It was quite difficult

-to remember that much.

0:22:030:22:06

-You've been comfortable on the stage

-since a young age then.

0:22:070:22:12

-Yes.

0:22:120:22:13

-I'd been performing

-since I was very young...

0:22:130:22:17

-..at chapel and school.

0:22:170:22:20

-We did a lot of musicals at school,

-particularly at Glan Clwyd.

0:22:200:22:24

-I got a taste of performing

-at that time.

0:22:240:22:27

-I liked

-being in front of an audience.

0:22:270:22:29

-It was naturally going to grow

-to be more than that in the end.

0:22:300:22:34

-You follow your mother.

-Here's your second item.

0:22:340:22:37

-Your mother is Leah Owen.

0:22:370:22:40

-She is famous for singing, teaching

-and for judging cerdd dant.

0:22:400:22:46

-Yes. I learned everything from Mam.

0:22:460:22:50

-This book

-is very valuable to me...

0:22:500:22:52

-..because there's

-a lot of family history in this.

0:22:520:22:56

-What Mam did when she was young.

0:22:560:22:58

-I'm so glad she wrote this book.

-It's all there for posterity.

0:22:580:23:02

-There are photos in it.

0:23:020:23:04

-She talks about relationships,

-when she was in college...

0:23:040:23:07

-..family and friends

-and then when her children arrived.

0:23:070:23:12

-How much trouble we were for her

-when she was young.

0:23:120:23:15

-It's all very interesting.

0:23:160:23:18

-I would certainly keep that

-and treasure it forever.

0:23:180:23:22

-It's a nice thing for you to pass

-down to your kids and their kids.

0:23:220:23:26

-Yes.

0:23:260:23:27

-The final item.

0:23:280:23:30

-Yes, I got these from Mam.

0:23:310:23:33

-They've now landed in our house.

0:23:330:23:35

-They're scrapbooks.

0:23:360:23:39

-They're about

-what I and the whole family did.

0:23:390:23:43

-There's a lot of stuff

-about my presenting days.

0:23:440:23:49

-There are stories

-about when I used to write.

0:23:490:23:52

-It's things I've done

-along the years.

0:23:530:23:55

-They're all down here as some kind

-of diary of someone's career.

0:23:550:24:00

-There's stuff

-about my brothers and sister too.

0:24:000:24:03

-They're all valuable

-and worth keeping.

0:24:030:24:06

-What did you present? You did a lot.

0:24:060:24:08

-Yes, I presented eisteddfods

-and Can I Gymru a couple of times.

0:24:090:24:14

-Most of it was live.

0:24:150:24:17

-It was quite an experience.

0:24:170:24:19

-The adrenalin was pumping.

-It was an exciting time.

0:24:190:24:22

-Would you like to do more of that?

0:24:230:24:25

-Would you like to do more of that?

-

-I'd love to, yes.

0:24:250:24:26

-I'm sure I'd be a little nervous

-doing it again.

0:24:260:24:29

-It would be great to have a chance

-to do something like that again.

0:24:290:24:33

-I've really enjoyed. I've had

-a great time and a drama lesson too!

0:24:330:24:38

-The kids were much better than me.

0:24:380:24:41

-Thanks for the welcome.

0:24:420:24:43

-No problem.

-It's been nice to have you.

0:24:430:24:46

-What a nice day with Angharad.

0:24:460:24:50

-It was nice to see

-a bit of this beautiful area.

0:24:500:24:53

-That's it for this week.

0:24:530:24:55

-Join me next time when I'll visit

-another interesting person's home.

-In this series...

0:25:130:25:14

-..we're focusing on vegetables,

-vegetables and more vegetables.

0:25:150:25:19

-Don't worry, fish and meat

-are still on the menu.

0:25:190:25:22

-Welcome to Cegin Bryn.

0:25:220:25:24

-I've written about meat and fish...

0:25:300:25:32

-..so I decided to write a book about

-getting the best out of vegetables.

0:25:330:25:38

-This new series

-is about one simple idea.

0:25:380:25:41

-I'll cook lots of tasty dishes

-which are packed with vegetables.

0:25:410:25:46

-You can serve some

-with meat or fish.

0:25:460:25:50

-I'll hit the road again...

0:25:510:25:53

-..but, this time, to meet people

-who grow, cook and taste vegetables.

0:25:530:25:58

-From sweetcorn to carrots

-to tomatoes...

0:25:590:26:02

-..and much more.

0:26:030:26:05

-I'll prove you can create a starter,

-a main and a dessert...

0:26:050:26:09

-..from one vegetable.

0:26:090:26:11

-I have a new, spacious kitchen...

0:26:110:26:14

-..but I'll also cook one dish

-in a pop-up kitchen on an allotment.

0:26:150:26:20

-Where better

-to set up a pop-up kitchen...

0:26:200:26:23

-..than in a thriving allotment

-in the middle of Cardiff?

0:26:230:26:27

-Carrots are on the menu, so let's

-cook a starter in the allotment.

0:26:280:26:33

-Carrot & Orange Salad

-With Goat's Cheese

0:26:340:26:38

-Carrot and orange salad

-with goat's cheese is our starter.

0:26:380:26:42

-It contains carrots

-of different varieties and colours.

0:26:420:26:46

-Ordinary orange carrots

-plus yellow and purple ones too.

0:26:470:26:51

-Peel them and place all the

-thin strips in a bowl of iced water.

0:26:510:26:56

-As you can see, this carrot

-is purple on the outside...

0:27:000:27:04

-..and orange in the middle.

0:27:040:27:06

-I'm placing the strips of carrot

-in iced water to keep them crisp.

0:27:100:27:14

-You can use only

-ordinary orange carrots for this...

0:27:170:27:21

-..but it's nice to have

-different colours in the salad.

0:27:210:27:25

-Next, prepare a vinaigrette dressing

-to go with the carrots.

0:27:320:27:36

-I'm using an ordinary orange.

0:27:360:27:38

-You could use a blood orange

-when they're in season.

0:27:390:27:42

-I'm using an ordinary orange today.

0:27:430:27:46

-The next step

-is to segment the orange.

0:27:530:27:56

-The easiest way to do this...

0:27:560:27:58

-..is to follow the white lines

-to the centre with a knife.

0:27:580:28:02

-Squeeze the juice from the centre.

0:28:120:28:15

-I need the juice for the dressing.

0:28:150:28:17

-Next...

0:28:200:28:21

-..set aside some of these segments.

0:28:220:28:26

-Next, add white wine vinegar...

0:28:280:28:31

-..sugar, salt and olive oil

-to make the dressing.

0:28:320:28:35

-Break down these orange segments.

0:28:360:28:40

-Add some sugar.

0:28:410:28:44

-You only need a pinch of sugar.

0:28:440:28:47

-Salt.

0:28:490:28:51

-Black pepper.

0:28:510:28:54

-White wine vinegar.

0:28:550:28:57

-Finally, the olive oil.

0:28:590:29:01

-You should always use

-good-quality oil for dressings.

0:29:020:29:05

-Mix it well.

0:29:100:29:12

-The next step is to dry the carrots.

0:29:200:29:23

-It's important to dry the carrots.

0:29:230:29:26

-If the carrots are wet, it affects

-the flavour of the dressing.

0:29:260:29:31

-Dry them thoroughly.

0:29:310:29:33

-Be careful as you do this.

0:29:350:29:37

-The carrots are crisp,

-so they snap easily.

0:29:370:29:40

-Put the carrots

-straight on the plate.

0:29:410:29:43

-Add the orange segments

-which were set aside.

0:29:470:29:50

-Next, add some goat's cheese.

0:29:540:29:58

-Break off chunks of cheese

-and scatter them among the carrots.

0:30:000:30:05

-Don't worry if crumbs of cheese

-fall onto the plate.

0:30:060:30:09

-Next, add the dressing.

0:30:100:30:12

-Drizzle it onto the plate.

0:30:130:30:15

-This is a light starter which you

-place in the middle of the table...

0:30:190:30:24

-..and let everyone help themselves.

0:30:240:30:27

-For the finishing touch,

-add some watercress.

0:30:270:30:31

-Watercress is bitter and pungent...

0:30:330:30:36

-..and it cuts through the sweetness

-of the carrots and the orange.

0:30:370:30:43

-There it is - orange, carrot

-and goat's cheese salad.

0:30:460:30:49

-A tasty, light and colourful salad.

0:30:500:30:52

-Carrot Confit & Pork Belly

0:31:160:31:19

-The first kitchen recipe

-is carrot confit and pork belly.

0:31:200:31:24

-First, rub salt into the pork

-to draw the moisture from the skin.

0:31:250:31:29

-Add some oil.

0:31:310:31:33

-Cook it in a 140 degree oven

-for four to five hours.

0:31:340:31:38

-While the pork cooks,

-I turn my attention to the carrots.

0:31:450:31:49

-First, we need some duck fat.

0:31:510:31:53

-While the fat heats up,

-I'll add a star anise...

0:31:570:32:00

-..black pepper

-and some cardamom pods.

0:32:010:32:03

-Next, some thyme.

0:32:120:32:14

-Next, the carrots.

0:32:310:32:33

-Use small, sweet young carrots.

0:32:330:32:36

-Don't remove all the green.

0:32:370:32:39

-Leave an inch at the top.

0:32:390:32:41

-Next, clean the carrots

-but don't wash them.

0:32:440:32:47

-I'll add the carrots to the fat...

0:32:480:32:51

-..but water would cause the fat

-to boil too rapidly.

0:32:510:32:54

-I use this technique

-in my restaurant.

0:32:550:32:58

-Nothing beats

-seeing whole carrots on a plate.

0:32:590:33:03

-The carrots

-are ready to be added to the fat.

0:33:090:33:12

-It's important

-that the fat isn't too hot.

0:33:130:33:16

-We don't want to fry the carrots.

0:33:170:33:20

-We want to cook them slowly.

-Confit means to cook slowly.

0:33:200:33:24

-Water will be drawn

-out of the carrots...

0:33:240:33:27

-..but their sweetness will remain.

0:33:270:33:30

-I'll cook them for an hour

-on a low heat.

0:33:320:33:34

-I want the fat to tick over

-but not to fry the carrots.

0:33:350:33:38

-It's very important.

0:33:390:33:40

-The pork is ready.

-It's had five hours in the oven.

0:33:570:34:00

-That's what I call

-a good piece of meat.

0:34:040:34:07

-I'll take the pork off the rack.

0:34:070:34:10

-I'll put another tray

-on top of it...

0:34:150:34:18

-..and weigh it down.

0:34:210:34:22

-As it cools...

0:34:220:34:24

-..it will compress to create

-a perfect piece of pork belly.

0:34:250:34:30

-Chill it in the fridge

-for four or five fours.

0:34:310:34:34

-The pork has had plenty of time

-to cool down.

0:34:500:34:53

-There we are. It's ready.

0:34:550:34:56

-It's nice and flat

-and it's held its shape.

0:34:570:35:00

-As you can see,

-it's a very neat piece of pork.

0:35:000:35:03

-The next step is to remove the skin

-from the pork...

0:35:030:35:07

-..before you warm it up again.

0:35:070:35:10

-I'll remove the skin.

0:35:140:35:16

-The pork is ready to be reheated.

0:35:190:35:21

-I need to get the fat

-nice and crisp.

0:35:210:35:24

-In goes the oil. Season the pork

-with salt and pepper.

0:35:250:35:29

-In goes the pork.

0:35:310:35:32

-That sizzling sound

-is music to my ears.

0:35:330:35:36

-The pan is hot, so I'll

-get a good colour on the pork.

0:35:370:35:40

-The carrots are ready.

0:35:430:35:44

-As you can see...

0:35:440:35:46

-..they look raw but they are cooked.

0:35:470:35:50

-They cooked slowly in the fat...

0:35:500:35:54

-..and therefore kept their colour

-and their shape.

0:35:550:35:59

-Heat the fat and get that crackling

-nice and crispy.

0:36:030:36:08

-This makes it easy to eat.

0:36:080:36:10

-There we are.

0:36:110:36:13

-It's ready to be served

-and to be eaten.

0:36:130:36:16

-Carrot confit and pork belly.

-This series features vegetables,

-focusing on carrots this week.

0:36:440:36:49

-Carrots have much more potential

-beyond being boiled in water.

0:36:490:36:53

-I'll meet vegetable growers

-during the series.

0:36:540:36:57

-My first trip

-is to a rather unusual garden.

0:36:580:37:01

-Owain Roberts from Cerrigydrudion

-is a brilliant gardener...

0:37:100:37:14

-..who uses

-some innovative techniques.

0:37:150:37:18

-Your garden looks like a laboratory.

0:37:200:37:22

-Why does it look

-so different from most gardens?

0:37:220:37:26

-The main reason it's different...

0:37:270:37:29

-..is that I grow vegetables

-specifically for competitions...

0:37:290:37:33

-..and for exhibiting in shows.

0:37:340:37:36

-There are huge tubs

-around the garden.

0:37:360:37:38

-Why do you use unusual techniques?

0:37:390:37:41

-The main reason is that I try to

-grow vegetables which are perfect.

0:37:420:37:48

-I don't grow extra large vegetables

-or miniature vegetables.

0:37:480:37:53

-I strive to grow vegetables which

-have reached their full potential.

0:37:540:37:59

-You've been doing this since 2008.

-Have you been successful?

0:38:080:38:12

-I've won the last three British

-Championships with my potatoes.

0:38:130:38:17

-Three in a row?

0:38:170:38:18

-Three in a row?

-

-Yes.

0:38:180:38:19

-I've won the Welsh Championship

-with stump carrots and potatoes.

0:38:200:38:24

-I won the British Championship

-with leeks.

0:38:260:38:28

-You know your stuff.

-You know what works.

0:38:280:38:31

-Yes.

0:38:310:38:32

-You grow vegetables

-for competitions.

0:38:350:38:38

-Is what's left eaten by your family?

0:38:380:38:41

-Yes, they eat the rejects.

0:38:410:38:42

-Yes, they eat the rejects.

-

-The rejects!

0:38:420:38:44

-I'd love to cook your rejects!

0:38:440:38:47

-Since they're being grown

-for competitions...

0:38:470:38:50

-..people assume

-the taste isn't the same.

0:38:500:38:53

-But I think the taste is better.

0:38:530:38:56

-My plants are given

-everything they could possibly need.

0:38:570:39:01

-Do competition judges

-taste the vegetables?

0:39:020:39:05

-No, unfortunately not.

-It's all about the look.

0:39:050:39:08

-You only have to look at them.

-They're mouth-watering.

0:39:090:39:13

-I grow carrots

-in those wheelie bins.

0:39:210:39:24

-They're actually wheelie bins.

-Did you nick them from the council?

0:39:250:39:29

-No, I found them online!

0:39:290:39:32

-What I'm looking for is depth.

0:39:320:39:35

-You'd be lucky to get two feet

-in a garden.

0:39:350:39:38

-This system

-gives me four feet of depth.

0:39:390:39:42

-What's in the polytunnel?

0:39:470:39:49

-Leeks down the centre

-and stump carrots on both sides.

0:39:490:39:54

-Only the roots are in the compost.

0:39:550:39:57

-I'm aiming to stretch the leeks

-and get 18 inches of white...

0:39:570:40:03

-..before the white turns green.

0:40:030:40:06

-How does it feel

-to win a competition?

0:40:060:40:09

-Fantastic.

0:40:090:40:10

-Very satisfying.

0:40:110:40:13

-You phone your wife and your dad

-to tell them you won.

0:40:130:40:16

-Oh, yes.

0:40:170:40:18

-Owain, I want to cook for you.

-Do you have spare carrots for me?

0:40:220:40:26

-Yes. I've got one you can use.

0:40:260:40:28

-There are dozens of carrots here!

0:40:290:40:30

-There are dozens of carrots here!

-

-Yes, but you can only have one.

0:40:300:40:32

-Look at that!

0:40:330:40:34

-One carrot that size will be plenty.

0:40:350:40:37

-Yes, I imagine so.

0:40:370:40:39

-It's perfect.

0:40:400:40:42

-I'll cook pickled carrots

-and mackerel for you.

0:40:440:40:48

-Owain, it's time to start cooking.

-Do you cook at home?

0:40:570:41:00

-Not very often, to be honest!

0:41:000:41:02

-I'm going to pickle this carrot.

0:41:030:41:06

-The first step is to heat

-some white wine vinegar...

0:41:070:41:12

-..an equal amount of white wine...

0:41:130:41:17

-..double the amount of water...

0:41:180:41:20

-..a pinch of salt...

0:41:220:41:24

-..and some sugar.

0:41:250:41:28

-Add some thyme to the liquid.

0:41:290:41:33

-I'll let it come to the boil

-while I slice this carrot.

0:41:350:41:39

-Have a taste.

0:41:400:41:42

-You won't get that in a shop.

0:41:450:41:47

-You're right. It's sweet,

-and there's a lot of water in it.

0:41:470:41:51

-Yes. I water them every day.

0:41:510:41:54

-Next, I'll thinly slice a shallot.

0:41:580:42:01

-In goes the shallot.

0:42:030:42:05

-Add the carrots and let it all

-sit there for five to ten minutes.

0:42:090:42:14

-Keep some crunch. You don't want

-the carrots to be too soft.

0:42:150:42:19

-Next, I'll prepare the mackerel.

0:42:200:42:22

-Next, I'll prepare the mackerel.

-

-I've never tried mackerel.

0:42:220:42:24

-This will be a first for you.

0:42:250:42:27

-Cut it into three pieces.

0:42:280:42:30

-Oil the skin.

0:42:330:42:35

-I'm about to use a blowtorch

-to cook this.

0:42:350:42:38

-OK.

0:42:380:42:40

-The blowtorch works like a grill,

-but you can direct the heat.

0:42:410:42:46

-It's ready.

0:42:550:42:56

-It's really quick.

0:42:570:42:58

-People are used to using a blowtorch

-on a creme brulee...

0:42:590:43:03

-..but not to cook mackerel!

0:43:040:43:06

-Spoon some carrots

-and some of the liquid into a bowl.

0:43:060:43:11

-That's a really simple recipe.

-What do you think?

0:43:160:43:20

-It looks good.

0:43:210:43:23

-Try some mackerel

-for the first time.

0:43:230:43:26

-I have to try it.

0:43:260:43:27

-That's really good.

-I want some more!

0:43:340:43:37

-This sweet carrot works really well

-with the vinegar sauce.

0:43:370:43:41

-It's a good combination.

0:43:420:43:44

-I'll buy my wife a blowtorch!

0:43:440:43:46

-Before I came here today,

-I assumed large vegetables...

0:43:470:43:51

-..didn't taste as good

-as smaller ones.

0:43:510:43:54

-You've certainly proved me wrong.

0:43:550:43:57

-That carrot is full of flavour.

0:43:580:44:00

-Your carrot

-is the star of this dish.

0:44:000:44:03

-It's sweet and tasty.

0:44:030:44:04

-Thank you for your time.

0:44:050:44:06

-Thank you for your time.

-

-Thank you.

0:44:060:44:07

-Carrot Cake

0:44:070:44:12

-For my carrot dessert,

-I'll bake a carrot cake.

0:44:130:44:16

-Carrot cake is something everyone's

-had but not cooked at home.

0:44:170:44:21

-This is my recipe.

0:44:220:44:24

-First, you need some caster sugar.

0:44:240:44:27

-In go the eggs.

0:44:300:44:32

-Next, some vegetable oil.

0:44:370:44:39

-You usually use butter in a cake

-but not in this case.

0:44:400:44:44

-In goes the oil.

0:44:450:44:46

-Mix it until it doubles in size.

0:44:460:44:49

-It's vital to mix it well to get air

-in there and create a light cake.

0:44:490:44:54

-While this mixes,

-I'll grate the carrots.

0:44:550:44:58

-Grate the carrots

-on the widest grate.

0:45:020:45:04

-It's important to be able

-to see and taste the carrot.

0:45:050:45:09

-There we are. The carrots are ready.

0:45:190:45:21

-The mixture is ready.

0:45:220:45:24

-It's important

-to keep the air in the mixture.

0:45:250:45:29

-I'll do the rest of the mixing

-by hand.

0:45:320:45:34

-It's important to mix carefully.

0:45:350:45:38

-I'm going to add some flour

-to the mixture.

0:45:380:45:41

-It's just plain flour. In it goes.

0:45:430:45:46

-Add baking powder

-and ground cinnamon.

0:45:460:45:49

-The cinnamon will give the cake

-a distinctive flavour.

0:45:490:45:53

-Add a pinch of salt.

0:45:560:45:58

-Salt draws out the sweetness

-of the carrots.

0:45:580:46:03

-Fold them into the mixture.

0:46:040:46:05

-It's important to try

-to keep the air in the mixture.

0:46:080:46:12

-There we are.

-All the flour is mixed in.

0:46:210:46:23

-Next, add the carrots.

0:46:230:46:26

-Add the grated carrots

-at the last minute.

0:46:260:46:29

-Fold the carrots into the mixture.

0:46:330:46:35

-Once again, try not to lose the air

-from the mixture.

0:46:350:46:39

-Pour it into a lined baking tray.

-It mustn't be too deep.

0:46:410:46:45

-I'm adding oil

-underneath the greaseproof paper...

0:46:470:46:52

-..because it'll help the paper

-stay in place...

0:46:520:46:56

-..as I spoon the cake mix

-into the baking tray.

0:46:560:46:59

-Get it all in there.

0:47:000:47:01

-Don't waste any of it.

0:47:030:47:05

-There's usually someone in the house

-who's keen to lick the bowl!

0:47:070:47:12

-Push the mixture into the corners.

0:47:140:47:17

-There we are.

-The cake is ready for the oven.

0:47:200:47:23

-Bake it for 30 minutes

-in a 160 degree oven.

0:47:230:47:26

-The cake has been in the oven for

-half an hour, so it should be ready.

0:47:340:47:39

-That's what we have - a carrot cake.

0:47:430:47:45

-I can smell the cinnamon.

0:47:460:47:48

-All that's left to do

-is wait for it to cool.

0:47:490:47:52

-Letting it cool is really hard!

0:47:520:47:54

-Then it's ready.
