-..with youngsters hoping to create

0:05:180:05:24

-To win and become Welsh Champion

-this is my eleventh title.

0:05:450:05:53

-..at Ogmore Grammar School,

-Nantymoel.

0:06:090:06:12

-Winning my first Welsh Championships

-in 1962 was when I realised...

0:06:120:06:16

-..I could go to London and compete

-against the best in Britain.

0:06:160:06:20

-It's a huge step on the ladder to

-I managed to go to Tokyo and

-win the Olympic gold.

0:06:250:06:29

-role in that experience.

0:06:290:06:33

-I've competed in the track events

-in the past...

0:06:330:06:37

-..and it's important for me to

-support, like they've supported me.

0:06:370:06:42

-I have friends competing and the

-Welsh standard is incredibly high.

0:06:420:06:48

-The moment they go home with their

-medals will stay with them for life.

-Welcome back.

0:13:040:13:05

-One of our most famous diaries

-is The Diary of Anne Frank.

0:13:050:13:09

-The story is about a young girl

-who is hiding from the Nazis...

0:13:090:13:13

-..in an Amsterdam attic

-during the Second World War.

0:13:130:13:16

-The diary has won

-international acclaim...

0:13:160:13:20

-..and symbolizes suffering

-during the Holocaust.

0:13:200:13:23

-Today is 12 June

-and a day to remember Anne Frank.

0:13:240:13:27

-Anne was born on this day

-back in 1929.

0:13:270:13:30

-It's important that we remember

-and observe this date.

0:13:310:13:34

-Let's hear some of her story.

0:13:340:13:36

-Anne Frank was a young girl

-during the Second World War...

0:13:420:13:47

-..who had to hide, because

-the Nazis didn't like the Jews.

0:13:470:13:51

-She lived in Amsterdam and she wrote

-a diary while she was in hiding.

0:13:510:13:56

-After the War, her father found it

-and made it in to a book.

0:13:570:14:04

-We've been learning about Anne Frank

-and the Second World War in school.

0:14:050:14:11

-Our Christmas gift was a trip to

-Amsterdam and we purchased the book.

0:14:110:14:18

-I read the book

-while we were in Amsterdam.

0:14:190:14:22

-We visited the museum

-where Anne Frank was hiding.

0:14:220:14:26

-It was sad to hear about the two

-families hiding here for so long.

0:14:260:14:32

-It was a fantastic experience,

-but sad to see the location.

0:14:330:14:37

-When you read the book,

-it's just in your imagination...

0:14:370:14:41

-..but when you visit the museum

-you remember it's a true story.

0:14:420:14:46

-When we walked in, there was

-a new section to the museum...

0:14:470:14:51

-..and it was all about what happened

-to Anne at the concentration camps.

0:14:510:14:57

-We saw her number, photographs and

-some things we did not want to see.

0:14:570:15:05

-The museum is multilingual

-and includes the Welsh language.

0:15:050:15:14

-'I starred at the candle flame

-and felt happy and peaceful.'

0:15:140:15:20

-'It's like my grandmother

-is watching over me...

0:15:200:15:24

-'..protecting me and making

-me feel happy once again.'

0:15:240:15:29

-For such a young girl,

-she was a great writer.

0:15:290:15:34

-In the book, she tells us that

-she wanted to become an author.

0:15:340:15:38

-She was clever and a great writer.

0:15:380:15:41

-It's an interesting perspective

-of a young girl...

0:15:420:15:46

-..who lived during

-the Second World War.

0:15:460:15:50

-I think she felt claustrophobic

-as she wanted to look outside.

0:15:510:15:57

-Anne was a heroine.

0:15:570:16:01

-to live during the war...

0:16:010:16:05

-compared to today.

0:16:050:16:12

-She lived in hiding for two years.

0:16:120:16:16

-It's important that we remember.

0:16:210:16:25

-Dr Ceril Rhys-Dillon.

0:23:210:23:27

-# This was the moment,

-the greatest moment of them all! #

0:23:280:23:40

-Well done.

0:23:530:24:05

-You mentioned that some of the

-pieces were difficult.

0:24:100:24:13

-Some of the pieces were very

-difficult to sing.

0:24:130:24:23

-In the ensemble, we all had our

-solos in the song.

0:24:230:24:27

-You love singing to audiences.

0:24:280:24:31

-I enjoy performing.

0:24:310:24:36

-However, I do get nervous.

0:24:370:24:45

-Every experience on the stage and

-at Eisteddfods are great for me.

0:24:460:24:50

-I've finished my second year

-at Cardiff university.

0:24:500:24:54

-I'm studying Welsh.

0:24:540:25:03

-I hope to do a Primary Education

-course at Cardiff Met.

0:25:030:25:14

-I hope to do a Post Graduate course

-afterwards.

0:25:140:25:17

-You want to be a student for years.

0:25:170:25:27

-Do you see yourself as teacher or

-performer?

0:25:280:25:30

-I'd love to sing and teach.

0:25:300:25:34

-They are both passions of mine.

0:25:340:25:38

-Thank you, Rhydian.

0:25:380:25:40

-Tonight, the Anglesey Eisteddfod

-Crown and Chair are being revealed.

0:25:400:25:45

-Gerallt is there on our behalf.

0:25:450:25:48

-Good evening, Gerallt.

0:25:480:25:52

-The Crown is being unveiled first,

-Gerallt.

0:25:520:25:56

-Good evening to you all.

0:25:560:26:00

-Welcome to Oriel Mon in Llangefni.

0:26:000:26:03

-Tonight sees the unveiling...

0:26:030:26:06

-..of this year's National Eisteddfod

-Chair and Crown.

0:26:060:26:12

-Tegwen Morris from Merched y Wawr

-has just unveiled the Crown.

0:26:130:26:19

-I met with John Price who made

-this year's Eisteddfod Crown.

0:26:210:26:27

-This is my seventh Crown

-for the National Eisteddfod.

0:26:310:26:36

-It's an honour to make it

-for the island where I was raised.

0:26:360:26:40

-The band of the Crown

-is the shape of the Menai Bridge.

0:26:400:26:44

-It's the bridge that links Anglesey

-to the mainland and the world.

0:26:450:26:50

-The Menai Bridge

-has many bow chains...

0:26:500:26:54

-..and the items on the Crown

-represent the chains.

0:26:540:26:58

-There's one for the Merched y Wawr

-who sponsored this year's Crown...

0:26:580:27:02

-..and the others are linked

-to the history of Anglesey...

0:27:020:27:07

-..and the island's links

-with the Eisteddfod and the world.

0:27:070:27:12

-As soon as I'm invited to make an

-Eisteddfod Crown, I make some notes.

0:27:150:27:20

-I meet the sponsors

-to get their input...

0:27:200:27:24

-..before returning home

-and incorporating my own ideas.

0:27:250:27:31

-I meet the sponsors again

-before doing some sketches.

0:27:320:27:36

-For this Crown, I did a few sketches

-of the Menai Bridge...

0:27:370:27:40

-..and devised some ideas...

0:27:400:27:45

-..before returning to the sponsors

-to make sure they were happy.

0:27:450:27:49

-As soon as we have the design...

0:27:500:27:57

-..it's sent to the Eisteddfod

-to get their seal of approval.

0:27:570:28:05

-I hope someone stands

-at the fanfare of the Corn Gwlad.

0:28:060:28:10

-I could be sat on the stage

-or in the audience...

0:28:100:28:14

-..but it's an exciting day and

-I hope to see someone wearing it.

0:28:150:28:19

-I'm now joined Derec Llwyd Morgan,

-chairman of the Eisteddfod.

0:28:370:28:44

-This is an important evening.

0:28:440:28:47

-It's an important night ahead

-of the Eisteddfod.

0:28:470:28:53

-Eighteen months ago, we discussed

-the designs of the Chair and Crown.

0:28:530:28:59

-Eighteen months ago, we discussed

-the designs of the Chair and Crown.

0:28:590:29:05

-I've been impressed to see the

-finished designs.

0:29:050:29:09

-They are truly stunning.

0:29:090:29:18

-There is wonderful detail

-in the Crown.

0:29:180:29:24

-There are some fantastic

-details on the Crown.

0:29:240:29:31

-It's understated but showcases

-what Anglesey has to offer.

0:29:310:29:36

-It's a symbolic prize.

0:29:360:29:42

-John Price has explained

-his design decisions.

0:29:420:29:54

-It has been sponsored by

-the Merched y Wawr.

0:29:550:29:59

-We are proud to celebrate 50 years

-of Merched y Wawr too.

0:29:590:30:04

-Let's take a look at the Chair.

0:30:040:30:16

-I'm thinking of attending

-this year's Eisteddfod in Anglesey.

0:30:290:30:35

-It's a century

-since the famous Eisteddfod of 1917.

0:30:360:30:41

-There's been lots of talk

-of the Black Chair.

0:30:420:30:46

-It feels strange that 100 years

-have past since it was made...

0:30:460:30:51

-..and people still flock here

-to view the Chair.

0:30:510:30:54

-The Black Chair won by Hedd Wyn

-in 1917 has been repaired...

0:30:540:30:58

-..and has returned to its

-rightful place at Yr Ysgwrn.

0:30:580:31:03

-Small pieces had fallen off so we

-sent it to the South to be repaired.

0:31:050:31:10

-It returned having been polished

-and looking fantastic.

0:31:110:31:18

-Yes, the Black Chair has been

-returned safely to Yr Ysgwrn.

0:31:270:31:31

-Two Eisteddfod Chairs have come

-from this workshop in Ysbyty Ifan.

0:31:310:31:35

-The first was by the late

-Huw Selwyn Owen in 1989...

0:31:350:31:39

-..for the National Eisteddfod

-in Llanrwst.

0:31:390:31:42

-This year's Chair was carved by

-Rhodri Owen, the son of Huw Sel.

0:31:420:31:46

-Eisteddfod Chairs

-tend to be very large...

0:31:520:31:56

-..so it was quite a challenge

-to make it in this small workshop.

0:31:560:32:01

-I'm delighted to have had the chance

-to make it and that it's worked out.

0:32:010:32:05

-It's the centenary of Hedd Wyn

-and the Black Chair...

0:32:050:32:11

-..and it's difficult

-to avoid comparing the two Chairs.

0:32:110:32:17

-The Snowdonia National Park

-asked me to make a Chair...

0:32:180:32:22

-..that carried

-the message of peace...

0:32:220:32:27

-..and that Wales is moving forward

-as a peaceful nation.

0:32:270:32:31

-Congratulations, Rhodri.

0:32:430:32:55

-Everyone was delighted

-with the Chair.

0:32:550:33:02

-The Chair is made from special wood.

0:33:030:33:07

-from the land at Yr Ysgwrn.

0:33:070:33:12

-The top is made from oak.

0:33:120:33:23

-Hedd Wyn would have

-seen these trees grow.

0:33:230:33:33

-There are elements of the Black

-Chair in my own design.

0:33:330:33:42

-What do you think of the Chair?

0:33:420:33:48

-The Chair is incredible.

0:33:480:33:52

-I should've tried for the Chair!

0:33:520:33:59

-There's so much meaning

-behind the Chair.

0:33:590:34:06

-What do you think of the Chair?

0:34:060:34:18

-The Chair is very different and

-shows the maker's imagination.

0:34:210:34:33

-It wouldn't fit in my house.

0:34:400:34:43

-However, I'll never win one!

0:34:430:34:46

-Before the break, we take a look

-at your events in our Calendar.

0:36:310:36:33

-Welcome back.

0:36:340:36:35

-It's the Year of Legends in Wales.

0:36:350:36:37

-There are many events taking place

-around Wales to celebrate.

0:36:370:36:41

-However, there is one very unique

-way of celebrating our mythology.

0:36:410:36:45

-Helly Powell has managed to combine

-two Welsh icons together...

0:36:450:36:48

-..Melin Tregwynt and the Mabinogi

-in one exhibition.

0:36:490:36:52

-Rhodri has been to Crickhowell

-Resource and Information Centre.

0:36:520:36:56

-You'll be right in thinking that

-these works are completely unique.

0:37:130:37:19

-You won't see

-anything like them anywhere else!

0:37:190:37:23

-There's the Twrch Trwyth boar,

-birds, deer and horses.

0:37:230:37:27

-Helly Powell's work

-is certainly innovative.

0:37:270:37:32

-Helly's work is unique.

0:37:330:37:36

-She uses textiles

-in a very unusual way.

0:37:360:37:39

-She's inspired by taxidermy but

-uses textiles to form the animals.

0:37:400:37:45

-Crickhowell's CRiC Gallery

-is a charity.

0:37:460:37:49

-The gallery strives to

-support artists from the local area.

0:37:490:37:54

-We showcase work by artists from the

-Brecon Beacons and Black Mountains.

0:37:540:37:59

-The gallery is hosting an exhibition

-by the artist, Helly Powell.

0:37:590:38:05

-Her textile work is based on

-Welsh legends from the Mabinogion.

0:38:050:38:13

-I wouldn't have

-a piece of taxidermy on my wall.

0:38:140:38:18

-I love Victorian taxidermy that you

-see in the Natural History Museum.

0:38:180:38:23

-When they went off on a grand tour,

-they brought animals back.

0:38:230:38:28

-It was the only way of showing

-what was out there in the world.

0:38:280:38:32

-I was looking at connecting

-animals and the Welsh landscape.

0:38:330:38:39

-I found the Mabinogion and animals

-play a huge role in the stories.

0:38:400:38:45

-The natural partnership

-was to use Melin Tregwynt fabrics...

0:38:460:38:51

-..to have a little piece of

-Welsh history hanging on your wall.

0:38:510:38:56

-There's a great interest

-in the stories of the Mabinogion.

0:38:560:39:00

-This year, even more people have

-been inspired to read the stories.

0:39:000:39:06

-The government and Literature Wales

-have made it A Year of Legends.

0:39:060:39:12

-Hunting, especially deer hunting

-was important in the Mabinogion.

0:39:120:39:17

-In the first Branch of the Mabinogi,

-Pwyll goes hunting in Glyn Cuch.

0:39:170:39:22

-In the forest, he sees the hunting

-dogs of Arawn, the King of Annwfn.

0:39:220:39:28

-Annwfn is the Welsh word

-for the Otherworld.

0:39:280:39:32

-Animals play an important part in

-the Four Branches of the Mabinogi.

0:39:320:39:36

-The character, Rhiannon

-is associated with horses and birds.

0:39:360:39:41

-The most famous of the Mabinogi

-animals is the Twrch Trwyth.

0:39:450:39:50

-Helly's interpretation

-of the Twrch Trwyth is incredible...

0:39:500:39:53

-..just like everything

-in her collection.

0:39:540:39:57

-Believe it or not, a few hunters

-have even purchased her work.

0:39:580:40:01

-However, the only real animal parts

-in the collection are the antlers...

0:40:020:40:06

-..but the deer

-sheds these naturally.

0:40:070:40:10

-Don't worry, she doesn't use

-real animals to create her work.

0:40:100:40:15

-They're made from fibreglass

-but they still look fantastic.

0:40:150:40:20

-There are also more traditional

-works on display at the gallery.

0:40:200:40:24

-The artist, Robert McDonald's pieces

-compliment Helly's works perfectly.

0:40:240:40:29

-However, there's no doubt about

-the main attraction for visitors.

0:40:290:40:33

-I'm originally from Cwmtwrch...

0:40:340:40:37

-..so there's no prizes

-for guessing my favourite piece.

0:40:370:40:40

-It's fantastic and you won't see

-anything more spectacular this year!

0:40:410:40:45

-It's an innovative concept

-and a completely new idea.

0:40:460:40:51

-The Melin Tregwynt fabrics

-work perfectly in her artwork.

0:40:510:40:56

-You must your imagination

-when reading the stories...

0:40:560:41:01

-..but we all know

-what deer, dogs and birds look like.

0:41:010:41:06

-Helly's interpretation

-of these animals are incredible.

0:41:070:41:11

-I hope she will inspire more people

-to read the Mabinogion stories.

0:41:110:41:15

-Rhydian Jenkins, Geinor Styles...

0:41:230:41:31

-..have been our guests.

0:41:310:41:35

-What are you performing for us?

0:41:390:41:42

-I'm going to sing Yr Hen Gerddor.

0:41:420:41:46

-I hope to perform the song at the

-Royal Albert Hall next May.

0:41:480:41:53

-Eye of the Storm will be on in

-November.

0:41:530:41:56

-That's it from us but tune into

-Prynhawn Da tomorrow at 2.00pm.

0:41:560:42:00

-At 7.00pm tomorrow, Daf Wyn learns

-the tricks of using fidget spinners.

0:42:000:42:04

-We hear of a project that breathes

-new life into Nantgarw pottery.

0:42:040:42:08

-But now, here's a performance of

-Yr Hen Gerddor by Rhydian Jenkins.

0:42:080:42:12

-# An aged minstrel sat alone

0:42:310:42:37

-# His locks were white as snow

0:42:370:42:44

-# With tearful eyes he murmur'd thus

0:42:440:42:51

-# The burden of his woe

0:42:510:42:58

-# "My springtime

-was with verdure clad

0:42:580:43:06

-# "When I thrill'd

-the list'ning throng

0:43:060:43:13

-# "Then follow'd

-Summer's brightest lay

0:43:130:43:20

-# "And autumn's plaintive song

0:43:200:43:32

-# "And autumn's plaintive song

0:43:340:43:46

-# "Those brilliant scenes

-have vanish'd now

0:44:010:44:07

-# "Before the winter's blast

0:44:070:44:14

-# "My dear harp with broken strings

0:44:140:44:21

-# "Lies shatter'd by the past

0:44:210:44:28

-# "My wife, my friends,

-my comrades all

0:44:280:44:35

-# "Are silent in the grave

0:44:350:44:43

-# "And I alone, alone am left

0:44:430:44:53

-# "To breast the stormy wave

0:44:530:45:03

-# "I can no longer tune my lyre

0:45:050:45:11

-# "Nor bind its wounded chord

0:45:110:45:17

-# "But still my soul

-will never cease

0:45:170:45:22

-# "To praise my loving Lord"

0:45:230:45:31

-# He cried to Jesus in distress

0:45:310:45:41

-# In sore distress

0:45:410:45:49

-# And silent slept his heart

0:45:500:46:01

-# Again he lives! In heav'n he sings

0:46:070:46:14

-# To the strains of the Golden Harp

0:46:140:46:19

-# The Golden Harp #

0:46:200:46:26

-APPLAUSE

0:46:280:46:30

-Thank you, Rhydian.

0:46:300:46:33

-Until tomorrow, goodnight.
