-Welcome to Heno!

-Hello and welcome

-to the first Heno of April.

-It's 7.00pm on Monday evening

-and it's great to have your company.

-We hope you had a great weekend.

-We'll return to Daf Wyn shortly, but

-this is what else we've got for you.

-I'm having a wonderful day with...

-..Ysgol Tan y Castell.

-We're on the train from Harlech

-to Machynlleth to hear some...

-..Tales on the Rails!

-We put a spring in your step with

-our gardening hamper competition.

-You can also win a pair of tickets

-to the RHS Flower Show in Cardiff.

-We'll disclose the question shortly.

-We also enjoy a chat and song from

-the Anglesey singer, Meilir Jones.

-He's got a busy summer ahead of him.

-We step back to 1977 to the world's

-biggest drug bust, Operation Julie.

-We're joined by

-two former detectives.

-Ted Nicholas has kept

-his flares at home tonight!

-He's joined by Eurfyl Evans.

-40 years have flown!

-Yes, the past 40 years have flown.

-People still remember it.

-WRU Chairman, Gareth Davies,

-is also here tonight.

-He's been appointed chairman of the

-new lottery in Wales - Loteri Cymru.

-It's a lottery for the people

-of Wales and for causes in Wales.

-Yes, that's right.

-Individuals can win 25,000 a week.

-A lot of money will be raised

-for good causes in Wales.

-First, let's return to Daf Wyn.

-Today,

-we're celebrating unusual pets.

-It could be a dog, tortoise or cat

-but probably not an armadillo...

-..but Folly Farm is home

-to an array of animals.

-I enjoyed a whistle-stop tour

-of the site.

-Do you like animals,

-Gethin, Siwan and Ella?

-Yes!

-That's great

-because we're in Folly Farm.

-Do you have any pets?

-Yes, we've got a dog called Blod.

-A goldfish and dog.

-Have you got anything, Ella?

-Have you got anything, Ella?

-

-No.

-Is there anything you would like?

-Um...

-..a goldfish!

-Is there an unusual or exotic animal

-that you would like to own?

-A monkey.

-Um, a monkey.

-A bird, maybe.

-Have you heard about the animals

-on Folly Farm?

-Yes.

-What would you like to see here?

-You want to see a bird

-and you want to see a monkey.

-Let's start with the monkeys.

-Folly Farm is more than a farm

-because we're a farm and zoo in one.

-We're lucky to have animals

-from all over the world.

-It's great for those who don't

-have pets or a back garden.

-They can visit Folly Farm

-to see farm animals...

-..and view other animals

-such as the lions and penguins.

-Is there anything you don't like?

-I wasn't a fan of the rats

-but they are friendly and clean...

-..so I'm very lucky.

-In the barn, the pupils of Mount

-Airey School from Haverfordwest...

-..are having a lesson

-on caring for an animal properly.

-I've learnt a lot.

-I held a bunny.

-I like pigs, oink, oink!

-You've got an unusual pet at home.

-Yes, I've got a magpie at home,

-it fell out of the nest as a chick.

-We brought her home.

-She lived in the field and grew up

-there but now lives in our kitchen.

-She's Dad's little baby!

-We've seen a lot of unusual animals

-so would you like any as a pet?

-Um, well.

-I like seeing them at Folly Farm

-but I'll stick with my dog.

-What about you?

-I'll stick with the goldfish

-when Mam buys one.

-Mam will have to buy you one.

-What about you, Siwan?

-What about you, Siwan?

-

-I'm happy with my dog and goldfish.

-We've done a lot of walking

-so let's have some food.

-Oh, they've gone already!

-Yes, we saw a lot of animals

-in Folly Farm.

-You've got a whole host

-of animals here, Catrin.

-Yes, we're lucky to have animals of

-all shapes and sizes at Folly Farm.

-Today, we're celebrating

-unusual pets.

-Do you have any advice

-for people who want an unusual pet?

-If someone is thinking about

-getting a pet...

-..they need to make sure that they

-have time to care for the pet.

-"A pet isn't just for Christmas,

-it is for life!"

-It's more than feeding, cleaning up

-after it and giving it clean water.

-You need to walk your pet or ensure

-it has access to the outdoors.

-It's important to give that pet

-your time and love.

-We're celebrating unusual animals

-so do you have an unusual pet?

-We have tiny birds who have access

-to the outdoors...

-..and have plenty of food

-and clean water.

-Yes, those are quite unusual.

-Thank you, Catrin and

-I'm boring as I don't have any pets.

-Come to Folly Farm

-to visit our animals.

-I will!

-Back to you in the studio.

-I don't have an unusual pet.

-I'm going to go over Easter.

-Do you play the Lottery

-for a chance to win a fortune?

-Next month, Wales is set to have

-its very own weekly lottery...

-..and it will be drawn on S4C.

-Loteri Cymru's Chairman,

-Gareth Davies, tells us about it.

-Welcome to Heno.

-Do we need another lottery in Wales?

-There's Lotto, the National Lottery.

-Scotland started their lottery

-last year.

-It was aimed at children.

-This idea has been floating

-around for a while.

-We thought it was more tangible...

-..with a prize of 25,000.

-It would be a great prize.

-I think everyone would welcome that!

-It's only 1 to play.

-The National Lottery is now 2.

-It's also twice a week...

-..so less people are playing it.

-We decided that this

-would be great for Wales.

-Local communities

-can make applications...

-..to get some help

-from this lottery.

-The people of Wales will benefit.

-How can people apply for it?

-It's all online.

-More and more people work

-on the Internet.

-The draw will be held

-every Friday night at 8.00pm.

-It'll also be a bilingual programme.

-The programme will also show

-where the money is being spent.

-We could interview

-some of the winners.

-I think Wales deserves something

-like this.

-There's a commitment for us...

-..because there could

-be more than one winner.

-The first tickets go on sale

-on 10 April...

-..and the first draw

-will be on 28 April.

-It's great to have a 1 a ticket.

-Do you know of any winners?

-A neighbour of mine

-won the lottery.

-He won over 150,000.

-I know of a syndicate

-in a home for the elderly.

-They won a lot of money too.

-It hasn't been a great weekend

-for regional rugby, Gareth.

-The Ospreys

-should have won yesterday.

-The Blues had an exciting game

-on Saturday night.

-I couldn't see it.

-Alas, they lost too!

-It's time for a break.

-Here's what's coming up.

-I'm on the Cambrian Coast Railway

-on a glorious spring day...

-..with the pupils of Ysgol Tan

-y Castell for Tales on the Rails.

-That's what I call a perfect day.

-You can hear all about it

-after the break.

-Former detectives, Eurfyl Evans

-and Ted Nicholas, recall 1977...

-..a year of hippies, flares and

-the world's biggest drugs stash...

-..produced in Llanddewi Brefi.

-Join us in a couple of minutes.

-Welcome back.

-Branwen, Bendigeidfran,

-Maelgwn and Seithenyn...

-..are all names that we associate

-with the mythology of Wales.

-Harlech pupils learnt about them on

-the Cambrian Railway this morning.

-Elin also joined them

-for some tales on the rails.

-In 2016, The Guardian named the trip

-from Dovey Junction to Pwllheli...

-..in the top ten

-of the world's epic train journeys.

-Today, I'll join the pupils

-of Ysgol Tan y Castell...

-..on the journey from Harlech

-to Machynlleth...

-..but it'll be epic

-for a very different reason.

-I've put a picture in front of you.

-It was created

-especially for the Year of Legends.

-The National Assembly has chosen

-2017 as the Year of Legends.

-The Welsh Books Council

-wanted to get involved.

-We wanted an author tour to coincide

-with the theme.

-This is a partnership between

-the Welsh Books Council...

-..and Arriva Trains Wales.

-We'll have a great day

-with Meinir Wyn Edwards...

-..who will talk about Welsh tales

-and their mysticism.

-What's this? It's the sea.

-Meinir is from Pembrokeshire and has

-published over 30 children's books.

-The book under the spotlight today

-is Deg Chwedl o Gymru...

-..that's been shortlisted

-for a Tir na n-Og Award this year.

-We started in Harlech

-for the Tales on the Rails journey.

-It's quite apt because the tales

-..are based on the Welsh Coast.

-There's Nant Gwrtheyrn and

-the love story of Rhys and Meinir.

-The story of Bendigeidfran

-and Branwen is based in Harlech.

-We work our way down the coast and

-have the story of Cantre'r Gwaelod.

-There's also the story of Maelgwn

-Gwynedd and the Dragon of Anglesey.

-What have you learnt today?

-There's the Welsh tales of Cantre'r

-Gwaelod and the story of Branwen.

-Meinir gave us a map

-and we had to find Cantre'r Gwaelod.

-Where is it?

-Where is it?

-

-It's right here.

-I've enjoyed being on the train

-from Harlech to Machynlleth...

-..and learning about the tales.

-I've enjoyed being

-on the train with friends.

-It's important for children

-to learn their local tales...

-..and learn the traditions

-that are unique to Wales.

-It's hoped that they share the tales

-with the next generation.

-The children and I have

-enjoyed ourselves on the train...

-..but it's time to learn the story

-of Cantre'r Gwaelod.

-It's been a great morning

-learning about the tales of Wales.

-Meinir is going to read them a story

-and they will write a report later.

-A lot of the people were farmers.

-Cantre'r Gwaelod was famous

-for its delicious fruit.

-Years 3 and 4 study

-the legend of Cantre'r Gwaelod...

-..and Years 5 and 6

-study Llyn y Fan Fach.

-This event is bringing

-these tales to life.

-I enjoyed going on the train

-and learning all the tales...

-..about the baby and the dragon.

-I enjoyed hearing Meinir tell us

-the story of Cantre'r Gwaelod...

-..and the train was good too.

-Is it important to know about these

-stories?

-It's important because I might write

-my own stories when I'm older.

-They got married and moved

-to North Wales to start a new life.

-Elin and the children obviously

-enjoyed themselves on the train.

-Next, we step back 40 years to 1977

-when the Queen marked her Jubilee...

-..the world mourned Elvis' death and

-Star Wars debuted at our cinemas.

-During that year, in a sleepy,

-remote area of West Wales...

-..events were unfolding

-as part of Operation Julie.

-It was the biggest drugs ring

-that supplied 90% of the UK's LSD...

-..and everything was orchestrated

-from West Wales.

-Two detectives who helped seize one

-of the our biggest drugs markets...

-..was Ted Nicholas, who can be seen

-in his flares here leaving court...

-..and Eurfyl Evans.

-Six million tablets of LSD -

-the biggest stash of illegal drugs.

-It's an amazing story.

-Let's go back to the start.

-Why Llanddewi Brefi?

-We have to look at the Hippies

-in the 1960s.

-There were two Americans

-and an Englishman.

-One of them was a chemist.

-They started making LSD.

-Another man was discovered.

-He told tales about the people...

-..who were involved

-in the drugs ring.

-One of the people

-who they named was Richard Kemp.

-Richard Kemp was involved

-in a head-on collision...

-..that killed the wife of a vicar.

-His Range Rover was searched...

-..and they found

-the chemical equation for LSD.

-That's how it all started.

-If it wasn't for the accident...

-..people would

-know nothing about it.

-What was your role, Eurfyl?

-I was in the CID in Cardigan.

-I had to go to Llangeitho...

-..because there had been

-a house burglary.

-We learnt that the van

-involved...

-..was in the Tregaron

-and Llanddewi Brefi area.

-We had to go to Aberystwyth...

-..and were told that we were

-not meant to go to Tregaron...

-..or the Llanddewi Brefi area.

-We couldn't go into those areas.

-We were told that

-we could join the raids.

-On the Friday before the raids...

-..I was asked to be at

-the Aberystwyth Police Station...

-..by midnight.

-We got there

-and the office was jam-packed!

-I was put with a drugs squad

-from Bristol.

-We started the hits on the houses

-at 6.00am.

-It's like something

-from Y Gwyll / Hinterland!

-Yes, you're right.

-I remember going to the area.

-I was with the drugs squad.

-We watched Todd and Kemp.

-They were followed.

-They were living in Tregaron.

-We also got an undercover team.

-They watched them all the time.

-It was a massive story at the time.

-We couldn't believe

-that it was on the news.

-It was all very quiet.

-It was a need-to-know basis.

-If we hadn't been in Llangeitho

-on that day...

-..then we would know

-nothing about it.

-Do you recall the story, Gareth?

-I didn't know anything about it

-at the time.

-After the drugs bust...

-..we were driving to Swindon.

-We didn't have any rear lights.

-I had to play rugby

-for Thames Valley Police.

-It stopped me from getting a ticket.

-After the break...

-..you can enter our competition

-to win our spring garden hamper.

-It includes a pair of tickets

-to the RHS Flower Show in Cardiff.

-We also chat to Meilir Jones

-who has a busy summer ahead of him.

-See you in a couple of minutes.

-..Meilir Jones.

-Welcome to programme.

-You're originally from Anglesey,

-but are studying in London now.

-Yes, and I'm still studying there.

-I graduated from the Royal Welsh

-College of Music & Drama.

-I'm currently a student at The

-Royal College of Music in London.

-London is great

-and there's plenty to do there.

-You're a familiar face

-on the Eisteddfod scene.

-You were successful over the years.

-It's also lead to

-a successful career.

-It's certainly helped and without

-the Eisteddfod I wouldn't be here.

-I've got three concerts

-within four days coming up.

-I'll perform oratorios

-and alongside different choirs.

-You've performed

-in some fantastic locations.

-I've been very fortunate.

-It was a highlight to perform at

-a male voice choirs concert...

-..at the Royal Albert Hall

-in October.

-It was an unforgettable experience.

-You were competing

-over the weekend.

-I was a finalist in the Dunraven

-Welsh Young Singer of the Year.

-It was a great evening.

-You've had so much success over

-the years including Llangollen.

-In 2011, I won the Solo

-in the under 21 category.

-How do your contemporaries

-in London feel opportunities?

-Are they envious of the

-opportunities given to the Welsh?

-Yes, they are somewhat envious.

-Welsh people are talented singers

-and there are more opportunities.

-There are so many choirs, soloists

-and the fantastic Eisteddfod.

-We're way ahead of the England.

-You are still studying

-and have mentioned a few concerts.

-But you've got a busy summer

-ahead of you.

-In this industry you learn your art

-as you go along.

-I can't think of a better way

-to learn...

-..than being out there performing.

-It's great to have a busy schedule

-and it helps with my studies.

-As a native of Anglesey...

-..the National Eisteddfod will be

-a highlight for you this year.

-It's set to be a busy week.

-I'll be competing and performing at

-the concert on Saturday evening...

-..in the company

-of Gwyn Hughes Jones.

-I've shared the stage with him

-before and he's very supportive.

-I will help an Eisteddfod CD that

-will be released at the festival.

-It'll feature other artists

-from the island.

-It's great to hear that

-you've got a busy schedule.

-What are you performing for us

-tonight?

-I'm performing the classic,

-Dafydd Y Garreg Wen.

-The arrangement is by Jeff Howard

-who is also my piano accompanist.

-Good luck

-with the busy months ahead.

-Do you enjoy a forest stroll?

-An open day was recently held at

-Coed Llwyn Onn Woods on Anglesey.

-It was a fantastic opportunity for

-those with learning disabilities...

-..to enjoy outdoor activities.

-This project has been running

-for four years and all are welcome.

-It's beneficial for those

-with mental health issues...

-..to be outdoors and enjoy some

-keep fit or craft-making workshops.

-People meet every Friday...

-..and not just at Llwyn Onn but at

-the various woodlands of Anglesey.

-The location changes every week.

-I come to Actif Woods every week.

-I bring the troops to meet other

-people and they have a lot of fun.

-They do exercises, have some food

-and do some woodwork.

-I'm here as a representative

-of Coleg Menai.

-They are doing a course

-that helps with life skills...

-..as well as skills in literacy,

-numeracy and socializing.

-We've used it over the years

-and it's a great place to visit.

-We work for the Haulfre Gardens

-near Llangoed on Anglesey...

-..and have brought clients to help

-boost their skills and independence.

-Today is a special day for the lads

-as they show what they can do.

-I'm from Coleg Menai

-and have been doing some keep fit.

-We're having for lunch

-before going back to college.

-Dafydd Y Garreg Wen.

-# Fancy A Fortune? #

-Every Wednesday night,

-you can spin our wheel.

-Fancy A Fortune?

-How much will you win?

-You've won 1,000.

-1,000.

-1,000.

-

-Goodness me!

-Just pick up the phone and do it.

-500!

-I won 1,000.

-I won 1,000.

-

-I'm feeling lucky.

-Are you feeling lucky?

-I'm going on holiday

-if I win Fancy A Fortune?

-Fancy A Fortune?

-The wheel will spin once again

-this Wednesday night.

-You can win anything up to 1,000,

-so don't forget to tune in!

-I don't think the lady won 1,000!

-If you're a fan of the theatre, you

-may enjoy Gary Owen's latest drama.

-Alun Williams chatted to Gary

-and the actor, Sion Daniel Young.

-The concept came from a book

-called On Killing...

-..by Lieutenant Colonel

-Dave Grossman.

-The book discusses the methods

-used by armies around the world...

-..that turn people

-into killing machines.

-Is it fair to say

-that it's very dark?

-Yes, it's quite dark and about a man

-and his relationship with his son.

-There's another character

-called Paul...

-..who has designed a very

-violent game called Killology.

-It deals with the way

-their lives come together.

-I never called him "Dad."

-I hardly ever got the chance.

-And little as I was, I could see

-saying it did something to him.

-Calling him "Dad," made him my Dad

-more than he had been.

-You play the role of Davey so

-tell us more about the character.

-We learn a lot about him through

-his relationship with his father.

-It's difficult not

-to give anything away.

-We meet through the game created

-by Paul played by Richard Mylan.

-Without giving anything away...

-..it's really difficult to explain

-why we've come together.

-People should come and see it

-and reach their own conclusions.

-You've persuaded me to do that and

-thank you for chatting with me.

-The drama is staged at The Sherman

-until Saturday night...

-..and at the Royal Court Theatre

-in London from 24 May to 24 June.

-Here's Yvonne

-with a reminder of our competition.

-Spring has sprung but our gardens

-can be colourless and bare...

-..so we'll help you to insert

-..along with the former detectives,

-Ted Nicholas and Eurfyl Evans.

-It's going to be a busy summer

-of rugby.

-The game never stops.

-There's the Lions tour

-to New Zealand.

-It'll be the highlight

-of the summer.

-Wales is also going to be playing

-Tonga.

-I suspect at least 10 players from

-Wales will be on the Lions tour.

-Are you rugby fans?

-Yes, and we'll go to the Lions tour

-if we win the lottery!

-Yes, that's right.

-Tickets go on sale on 10 April.

-The first draw is on 28 April.

-That's it from Heno, but Prynhawn Da

-But we leave you tonight
