-Good evening to you both.

0:03:400:03:52

-It's for sale.

0:03:530:03:55

-I'm at Tafarn Sinc.

0:03:550:04:00

-The North Pembrokeshire railway

-was established in 1886...

0:04:000:04:04

-..and it transported slate from the

-quarries to areas others areas.

0:04:040:04:08

-During that period,

-the village of Rosebush grew.

0:04:080:04:11

-There was an attempt to attract

-people to enjoy the views.

0:04:110:04:15

-In 1877, Tafarn Sinc was built.

0:04:150:04:19

-However, at that time it was known

-as the Preseli Hotel.

0:04:200:04:24

-I don't think it was much of a

-hotel and I only know of two owners.

0:04:250:04:28

-The first was Peg,

-who was later followed by Brian.

0:04:280:04:35

-If Brian hadn't bought it, I think

-it would have been destroyed.

0:04:360:04:45

-Tafarn Sinc is very unique.

0:04:480:04:52

-There aren't many places

-with sawdust on the floor.

0:04:520:04:56

-All of the accessories on the wall

-are a reflection of local history.

0:04:560:05:01

-There's always a warm welcome, the

-food is tasty and the beer is great.

0:05:010:05:09

-There's good beer, great company

-and occasionally strange visitors.

0:05:110:05:18

-I feel more at home here

-that I do in the Amman Valley.

0:05:180:05:22

-I don't know why and

-I can't explain it.

0:05:220:05:26

-After living in the area and having

-such a good time with the locals...

0:05:270:05:31

-..it was a big help to me

-at that time.

0:05:320:05:34

-These days, I have a static caravan

-at Rosebush Caravan Park.

0:05:340:05:39

-I've come back and

-they've decided to leave.

0:05:390:05:43

-Maybe I'm the reason why!

0:05:430:05:46

-Tafarn Sinc has been a community

-meeting point since I worked here.

0:05:460:05:50

-Hafwen and Becky are welcoming and

-we had fun when I worked here.

0:05:500:05:54

-They are very kind and wanted to

-give locals the chance to work.

0:05:540:06:00

-It was my first job and

-the pocket money was very handy.

0:06:000:06:08

-It's a Welsh pub, which has welcomed

-visitors from around the world...

0:06:090:06:14

-..and they love it, because they

-know they're in another country.

0:06:140:06:18

-I'm sure that these four walls have

-got many funny stories to tell.

0:06:180:06:24

-I don't think it's safe to tell any.

0:06:250:06:28

-Before the smoking ban,

-people would smoke in here.

0:06:290:06:32

-You've seen the meat hanging up and

-it used to be in the bar.

0:06:320:06:39

-The brothers, John a Capten would

-come and cut pieces of the meat...

0:06:400:06:44

-..and then eat it.

0:06:440:06:49

-The meat must have been smokey due

-to the number of people smoking.

0:06:490:06:54

-I remember it to this day and

-I can see them doing it now.

0:06:540:06:57

-Fantastic.

0:06:570:07:01

-The biggest loss will be to lose the

-current owners and their children.

0:07:020:07:07

-It was nice to see them come,

-but we'll be sad to see them leave.

0:07:070:07:13

-I hope the next owners will want to

-keep the character of the place...

0:07:130:07:16

-..and that the warm welcome

-continues.

0:07:160:07:21

-It will be strange to come back

-and not see Hafwen and Becky here.

0:07:210:07:25

-To Hafwen and Becky,

-good luck for the future.

0:07:250:07:28

-At 4.50pm tomorrow...

0:07:440:07:45

-..Wales play their biggest match

-and the one we want them to win.

0:07:450:07:49

-They play the old enemy, England,

-in the Six Nations Tournament.

0:07:490:07:53

-The commentator,

-Gareth Rhys Owen...

0:07:540:07:57

-..will report on every kick,

-try and conversion.

0:07:570:08:00

-We've waited a long time,

0:08:000:08:03

-Edinburgh, London and here in Rome,

-but what does it all represent?

0:08:030:08:07

-A welcome, passion, friendship,

-and music of course.

0:08:080:08:12

-# See he stands among the myrtles #

0:08:150:08:18

-Gareth looks stylish in his suit.

0:08:340:08:40

-Is it for us?

0:08:410:08:44

-The suit is not for you.

0:08:440:08:49

-I'm off to a special evening

-at the Diplomat Hotel.

0:08:490:08:52

-We're raising money for Parkinsons.

0:08:530:09:05

-One of my former team-mates

-from Kidwelly is fund-raising.

0:09:080:09:16

-My tux had a hole in the back

-so I had a panic earlier!

0:09:160:09:25

-You're also wearing socks.

0:09:250:09:35

-I've had quite a bit of attention

-on Twitter about my clothes.

0:09:350:09:47

-I decided when I started

-presenting that we needed...

0:09:470:09:53

-..to move with the times

-and stop wearing socks.

0:09:530:09:57

-The audience weren't ready.

0:09:580:10:00

-I'll never live it down.

0:10:000:10:09

-I'm always asked

-if I'm wearing socks.

0:10:090:10:13

-You must love presenting.

0:10:130:10:20

-If I could do anything I wanted

-I would have played for Wales.

0:10:200:10:29

-If I couldn't do that,

-I was going to commentate.

0:10:290:10:34

-I have the best seat

-for every match.

0:10:340:10:43

-It's the best job in the world.

0:10:430:10:48

-Wales were victorious

-last week in Italy.

0:10:490:10:59

-Tomorrow could be different story.

0:10:590:11:02

-Tomorrow will be a difficult game.

0:11:020:11:08

-My head and my heart are at odds.

0:11:080:11:13

-England have a tremendous record.

0:11:130:11:25

-We seem to stumble

-from game to game.

0:11:270:11:30

-It will be exciting.

0:11:310:11:33

-Eddie Jones is a genius.

0:11:330:11:40

-He takes the focus off the players.

0:11:400:11:43

-That lets them get on with the job.

0:11:430:11:55

-Let's return to Alun.

0:11:560:12:06

-Welcome back to Tafarn Sinc.

0:12:060:12:18

0:12:190:12:25

-The pub is for sale so why?

0:12:250:12:29

0:28:570:28:59

-His latest publication is more than

-a book about the railways of Wales.

0:28:590:29:04

-It's filled with stories and memoirs

-collected by Ian along the tracks.

0:29:040:29:09

-We've departed on time at Pwllheli.

0:29:120:29:17

-Cyffordd i Gyffordd

-is the title of your book.

0:29:170:29:19

-Cyffordd or junction is

-an important term in this book.

0:29:200:29:24

-Yes, it refers to Dovey Junction.

0:29:240:29:28

-It's the starting point

-of my tour around Wales.

0:29:280:29:32

-It slipped into England, moved to

-Shrewsbury, Cardiff and Swansea...

0:29:330:29:39

-..back Shrewsbury, Wrexham, the

-Conwy Valley, the Ffestiniog line...

0:29:390:29:44

-..and over to the Dovey Junction,

-to complete my journey.

0:29:450:29:50

-The subtitle is quite interesting

-- 'an old hack's outing'

0:29:500:29:54

-Yes, the trains are so old.

0:29:540:29:57

-In my career as a journalist

-and in my personal life...

0:29:570:30:02

-..I've travelled a lot around Wales.

0:30:020:30:04

-I was either paid for it,

-or I had to pay for it.

0:30:040:30:07

-This special journey has taken me

-to locations that I've never seen.

0:30:080:30:13

-It crosses the new Brewit Bridge

-between Penrhyn and Harlech.

0:30:180:30:24

-It's an important part of linking

-Pwllheli with the rest of the world.

0:30:240:30:30

-They feared that the authorities

-wouldn't fund its repairs.

0:30:300:30:36

-But they did and it safeguard

-the future of the line.

0:30:360:30:41

-But they did and it safeguarded

-the future of the line.

0:30:410:30:46

-We're travelling through Barmouth.

0:30:460:30:49

-I wonder what the locals

-will think of this.

0:30:490:30:52

-'A seaside down covered in dog mess

-that has seen better days.'

0:30:530:30:57

-I wouldn't rush back to Barmouth

-after writing a sentence like that!

0:30:580:31:01

-It isn't the only seaside town

-that's in a similar situation.

0:31:020:31:07

-Having said that, it does boast

-an element of Birmingham-on-sea.

0:31:070:31:12

-There are interesting areas

-like the old town above the streets.

0:31:120:31:17

-Barmouth does have character,

-like every seaside town.

0:31:170:31:20

-Barmouth also boasts a bridge.

0:31:210:31:23

-It's a masterpiece

-and worth strolling across it.

0:31:290:31:33

-After crossing it, the journey

-is considered by the experts...

0:31:360:31:42

-..as one of the top ten

-train journeys in the world.

0:31:420:31:47

-I wouldn't argue with that.

0:31:470:31:49

-It's a fantastic journey

-from Pwllheli to Machynlleth.

0:31:500:31:55

-It's certainly worth taking a ride

-and is thrilling on a day like this.

0:31:550:32:06

-At Machynlleth Rhydian Mason, who

-promotes the Cambrian Railway...

0:32:060:32:10

-..flicks through Ian Parri's book.

0:32:100:32:15

-The book isn't about trains but a

-great partner for the Cambrian line.

0:32:150:32:21

-It's acts like

-a Bradshaws in Barmouth for us.

0:32:210:32:25

-It interests people who come from

-all over to take the Cambrian tour.

0:32:250:32:33

-The Guardian nominated it as among

-the world's best train rail lines.

0:32:330:32:41

-It should be in the top three.

0:32:410:32:44

-The book provides an insight for

-those who've yet to travel on it.

0:32:440:32:55

-Long live the train

-and the Cambrian Railway.

0:32:550:33:02

-The Valleys have

-been my home for 50 years.

0:33:290:33:34

-Each valley with its industrial

-scars and colourful characters...

0:33:340:33:38

-..have left

-a lasting impression on me.

0:33:380:33:44

-Over the coming weeks...

0:33:440:33:46

-..I'll revisit the Valleys...

0:33:460:33:49

-..and meet characters

-who are naturally welcoming.

0:33:490:33:53

-Why not jump on board my ride?

0:33:530:33:57

-I'm shifting gear

0:33:570:34:00

-We started out in

-the Vale of Neath.

0:34:420:34:46

-I visited the school

-where I'd worked as a teacher.

0:34:470:34:52

-It had closed but the children's

-work was still on the walls.

0:34:520:34:58

-We went down to Glynneath

-and to Neath itself.

0:34:580:35:09

-We visited the Castle Hotel

-where the WRU was established.

0:35:090:35:18

-There is a room where Napoleon

-was reputed to have stayed.

0:35:180:35:21

-Was it really him?

0:35:210:35:25

-We moved down to the Swansea vale.

0:35:250:35:35

-We also visited

-the Gwendraeth Valley.

0:35:350:35:42

-There's also a special story

-about a shoe shop.

0:35:420:35:54

-I've lived a life

-of tremendous strain.

0:35:540:35:56

-I have size 7 feet.

0:35:570:36:02

-I went to a shop in Pontarddulais

-where the man told me...

0:36:020:36:07

-..that I was wearing

-the wrong size shoes.

0:36:070:36:12

-He brought out another pair

-and told me to walk about.

0:36:130:36:22

-They fitted nicely

-and were a size 9!

0:36:220:36:32

-I'd been wearing shoes

-that were too small for decades!

0:36:320:36:36

-Toni Carol also joins you.

0:36:360:36:43

-We went to Adelina Patti's home.

0:36:440:36:47

-She had her own private station

-on the railway for her home.

0:36:480:37:00

-Her guests could come almost

-off her doorstep by train.

0:37:030:37:06

-The journey took us to the marina

-in Swansea...

0:37:060:37:10

-..and then to the copper mines.

0:37:100:37:18

-We even spent time in the Amman

-Valley where I was born.

0:37:180:37:24

-We are spoiling you tonight

-with a preview clip of the series.

0:37:270:37:32

-Last year, 57 of us left

-Glynneath Rugby Club...

0:37:320:37:35

-..and one of us saw the game.

0:37:350:37:38

-And he saw it in jail.

0:37:380:37:40

-Max, the locals know you too well.

0:37:400:37:42

-but I'll say it anyway.

0:37:430:37:45

-You're seen as a king here,

-especially at the club.

0:37:460:37:49
