-weeding before we caught the train!

-When someone local is on a show,

-we all talk about it.

-I live with Oscar, my Persian cat.

-He's great fun

-and he's really clever.

-to the area where I was raised.

-You make these cards.

-Where do you make them?

-I have a workshop at the back.

-Is it as tidy as this?

-Let's go and have a look at it.

-I obviously hadn't improved.

-How long does it take you

-to complete a set of cards?

-I'd say it takes about an hour

-to make and pack 10 cards...

-..before they go on the shelves.

-You need concentration

-and discipline.

-I've made these flowers for years,

-so it comes naturally to me now.

-I've made a flower here.

-I don't think anyone

-has seen one like this before.

-Six petals.

-I don't know if it's good enough

-for your cards but it is unique.

-It's good for a first attempt.

-You're too kind!

-What do the people of Y Bala think

-of their town and the Penllyn area?

-This area is wonderful.

-It's beautiful.

-We have a lake,

-magnificent mountains and rivers.

-It's a rural area

-and that hasn't changed.

-You hear a lot of Welsh here.

-If you go to Y Bala

-to do your shopping...

-..you'll always find someone

-to chat to in Welsh.

-It's good because

-you hear Welsh all the time...

-..all day.

-I'm learning Welsh because

-I hear it around me all the time.

-It's important to learn Welsh

-if you live here.

-I'm standing on the banks

-of River Tryweryn...

-is a mile from the Centre.

-The village of Capel Celyn

-was drowned to create the reservoir.

-In the 1960s, the city of Liverpool

-needed some more water...

-..and they came up with the idea

-of creating a reservoir...

-..by flooding the valley

-in which Capel Celyn stood.

-The people

-of Penllyn and Wales said no...

-..but the voice of the city

-of Liverpool was stronger.

-They drowned the valley in 1965.

-River Dee flows north west

-from Y Bala towards the sea.

-Let's follow the river for 15 miles

-to the village of Cerrigydrudion.

-Bryn Jones and Llyr, his son,

-have a farm here.

-They produce rapeseed oil there,

-as Bryn Williams discovered.

-Bryn Jones and Llyr Jones

-produce rapeseed oil.

-Rapeseed oil, with its distinct

-colour, is great for cooking.

-What's the name of your oil?

-What's the name of your oil?

-

-Blodyn Aur.

-Gold flower - the flower

-and the fields are gold.

-The oil is golden too, isn't it?

-Yes. It's golden

-and it's totally clear.

-It's a lovely sight.

-Yes. It's a great colour.

-It has a really unique flavour.

-It tastes great

-and you can cook with it.

-Yes. It's really good in stir-fries,

-where you use a high heat.

-The nutrients in it aren't affected

-by high temperatures.

-It certainly works as a cooking oil.

-You and your rapeseed oil

-will take over the world!

-Yes, in ten years' time!

-Llyr, this is

-where the magic happens.

-Explain the process

-from the field to the bottle please.

-We bring it on trailers

-from the fields to the farm...

-..and we pump it into the hoppers,

-where it's stored.

-It comes up the auger

-to this filtering machine.

-Stones and foreign bodies

-are removed here.

-The seeds are black?

-I assumed they'd be yellow

-because of the yellow flowers.

-I was wrong. These pods are black.

-These pods contain 40% oil.

-It then passes through this auger

-to the hopper...

-..and then it's heated

-in that small tank over there.

-It then falls into the press.

-Once it's warm, it's ready to press.

-Yes, and there's an auger

-inside here.

-There's a conical section here.

-The pods are squeezed to the end

-and it gets narrower and narrower...

-..and the oil drips down,

-into this tank.

-What's left here

-are the protein pellets...

-..which fall on the conveyer belt.

-Protein pellets? For what purpose?

-Protein pellets? For what purpose?

-

-For cattle feed.

-It's 32% protein.

-It contains 10% oil.

-It's also rich in vitamins.

-It's an excellent feed

-for our cattle.

-It saves you buying feed

-for the animals.

-Yes, so we save money there.

-The oil then flows into the tank

-under our feet.

-It then passes through the filter.

-Llyr, what's happening here?

-This is the reason

-we produce such good oil.

-We use this to filter it

-down to one micron.

-This husk is removed from the oil.

-This was still in the oil?

-Yes, it was in the oil

-which came out of the tank.

-It attaches itself to the side.

-Once it's gone a quarter of an inch

-down the mesh, it's clean.

-It filters itself.

-Once it's nice and clean,

-we flick the switch...

-..then it passes through

-the candle filter and into the tank.

-The colour is fantastic.

-It's golden, like the sun.

-Yes. It really is outstanding.

-Golden flower is a good name for it!

-When you see it through the bottle,

-it looks incredible.

-Have a taste.

-Have a taste.

-

-Thank you.

-It's quite nutty.

-You can taste the sun

-and your hard work in that oil.

-It's a great product.

-It's a great product.

-

-Thank you.

-Let's stay in Cerrigydrudion,

-as we join Aled Sam in Hendre Llan.

-For help to follow the programme...

-..use the website,

-the app and the subtitles.

-Had you known how much time

-and money the renovation involved...

-..would you have bought the house?

-Yes, we would... wouldn't we?

-Geoff, there's a glazed look

-on your face!

-I wouldn't have bought it.

-I was the one who wanted the house.

-The renovations were very expensive.

-The problem is

-Carys wants everything bang-on...

-..and I think that probably cost us

-even more money!

-Having said that, all the work

-has been done properly.

-I have no regrets about anything

-we've had done to the house.

-It's cosy.

-Are you happy with it?

-Are you happy with it?

-

-Yes, we're very happy with it.

-You don't want to do it again?

-You don't want to do it again?

-

-I'd love to do it one more time!

-It's an enormous house!

-Don't you feel a bit lost here?

-I retreat to the west wing

-when we've argued!

-It's handy when he snores too!

-Geoff takes care

-of the manual labour.

-He sings your praises because

-you're the one with the vision.

-Is that true?

-Yes.

-I have a very active imagination!

-Geoff was sceptical, but I could

-imagine how this house would look.

-Do you collect specific things?

-Yes - I know what I like.

-I'm fond of Gaudy Welsh.

-I have a few Gaudy Welsh pieces.

-I enjoy

-owning a whole collection of things.

-There are some pieces of

-Royal Worcester on the mantelpiece.

-They're colourful and they

-complement the colours of the room.

-Did you

-decorate and furnish the rooms?

-Yes, I chose everything.

-I started with the curtains

-in this room...

-..and I chose a carpet, a sofa

-and some wallpaper to go with them.

-Why did you buy the curtains first?

-Simply because I liked them.

-I just knew I wanted them.

-Everything else stems from

-the colours in the curtains.

-Yes, that's right.

-The wonderful conservatory

-capitalises on the stunning views.

-It also draws light into the house.

-The French bedroom furniture is

-another example of Carys's keen eye.

-This seems old to me, Geoff.

-Yes, this house is listed

-because of the staircase.

-The people at CADW

-told us we mustn't damage it.

-This is original.

-We tried to match the stairs

-when we had these panels done.

-This is the most important part

-of the house!

-Close your eyes for a second.

-There you go!

-Even James Bond

-doesn't have one of these!

-A glory hole!

-Carys and Geoff are very fond

-of inviting friends to the house.

-In addition to this secret bar, they

-have a wine cellar under the stairs.

-I'd like to move to a flat

-with no garden!

-I'd chuck flowerpots off the veranda

-when the plants were dead!
