0:20:48 > 0:20:53- ..and hold an annual procession - to celebrate the link...
0:20:53 > 0:20:57- ..because this is where - Patrick was born.
0:20:57 > 0:21:02- Rumour has it that Patrick - was born and raised in Wales...

0:21:46 > 0:21:51- The truth about his birth - isn't important...
0:21:51 > 0:21:57- ..as St Illtud's Church in Llantwit - Major has a definite link...
0:21:57 > 0:22:00- ..in that Patrick was educated here.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04- This was one of the first - Christian centres in Britain.
0:22:04 > 0:22:08- They sent their students out - to teach the Gospel.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11- It's believed that both St David - and St Patrick were educated here.
0:22:12 > 0:22:17- Both are celebrated together - at this site.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22- It's believed that he came here - to the monastery or college.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26- Illtud taught the monks - who became ministers...
0:22:27 > 0:22:33- ..and spread the Word - through Wales and Europe.
0:22:33 > 0:22:39- It's a lovely story - but I don't really believe it.
0:22:39 > 0:22:44- How could he have been - born in 385AD...
0:22:45 > 0:22:47- ..when Illtud established - his college in 500AD?
0:22:48 > 0:22:53- Patrick would have been over - 100 years old when he came here!
0:22:54 > 0:22:57- Do you think that this is - just another story?
0:22:57 > 0:23:01- Yes, I think so.
0:23:01 > 0:23:06- We do know Patrick was kidnapped - by Irish pirates at the age of 16.
0:23:06 > 0:23:10- He was taken to Ireland - but escaped and returned to Wales.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12- He was educated here...
0:23:12 > 0:23:16- ..but returned to Ireland to - teach Christianity to the Pagans...
0:23:16 > 0:23:27- ..and he was obviously successful - because he's world-famous today!
0:23:27 > 0:23:32- The celebrations in America - go beyond any common sense.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34- I happened to be in New York - on St Patrick's Day...
0:23:35 > 0:23:41- ..and the procession down - Fifth Avenue lasted for hours!
0:23:41 > 0:23:47- What about the fables of Patrick - chasing snakes from Ireland?
0:23:48 > 0:23:53- It's thought that snakes - have never resided in Ireland.
0:23:53 > 0:23:58- The same is true for New Zealand, - Iceland and a few other places.
0:23:59 > 0:24:04- There's a scientific explanation - but it's long and boring...
0:24:04 > 0:24:10- ..so I prefer - to congratulate Patrick!
0:24:10 > 0:24:15- It's thanks to him that Ireland's - national emblem is the shamrock...
0:24:15 > 0:24:19- ..that denotes the Trinity - of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
0:24:19 > 0:24:24- Patrick might be Welsh but Wales has - welcomed it's fair share of Irish.
0:24:24 > 0:24:33- Patrick is my husband's name but he - has never been called Paddy or Pat.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38- We do celebrate St Patrick's Day...
0:24:38 > 0:24:42- ..because the Irish - are our cousins across the water.
0:24:49 > 0:24:54- Happy St Patrick's Day - to everyone in Ireland and Wales!
