-We hope you all enjoyed

-your weekend.

-Congratulations to everyone

-on Anglesey for a great Eisteddfod.

-I'm sure the thousands who attended

-the Eisteddfod are very tired...

-..and a bit disheartened

-that it has all come to an end.

-We'll try and boost your spirits

-over the coming hour.

-Gerallt is joined by one of the

-stars of this year's Eisteddfod.

-Gwion Hallam joins me tonight

-after winning the Eisteddfod Crown.

-Elin has also been on her travels.

-I'm in Beddgelert to meet an

-American from Alabama in Wales.

-Rob Davies has never lived in Wales

-but is fluent in our language.

-You can hear his story later.

-Join us, Claire Jones and Rhydian

-Roberts for some great music.

-We're in Cardigan Castle

-on a glorious summer event.

-Welcome to the local show that's

-much bigger than you would expect.

-Crowds have gathered to see the

-horses, woodcutting and tractors.

-We're joined in Llanelli by

-the band from Cardiff called Cadno.

-We look forward to your performance

-tonight.

-Our guests include the

-Let's see that moment when you were

-announced the winner.

-It's a pleasure to announce

-that Elwyn/Annie/Janet/Jiws...

-..is Gwion Hallam.

-APPLAUSE

-Unfortunately, we've lots

-our connection to North Wales.

-We'll be back with Gerallt

-as soon as possible.

-Those who didn't see Elin Fflur

-at Bodedern on Saturday...

-..may have joined the Royal harpist,

-Claire Jones at Cardigan Castle.

-The place was full of harpists

-and a few other familiar harpists.

-I got the idea when I was

-travelling America last year.

-I met a group

-called the American Harp Ensemble...

-..and I invited them to come

-and perform at Cardigan Castle.

-Tonight, I'm proud to present...

-..the Claire Jones Harp School

-and the American Harp Ensemble.

-They will all play together

-so 23 harpists will perform as one.

-It's a great opportunity for them to

-work with international musicians.

-Later, we'll have performances

-from Gwawr Edwards...

-..Trystan Llyr Griffiths

-and Rhydian Roberts.

-# The world in union,

-the world as one #

-I'm fortunate to have

-experienced success as a soloist.

-My next aim is perform in a group

-as Wales has some fantastic singers.

-Our group consists of Gwawr Edwards,

-Trystan Llyr Griffiths and myself.

-The fantastic former Royal Harpist,

-Claire Jones also performs with us.

-I wanted the group to perform

-to the accompaniment of a harp...

-..as the rest of the world always

-associates the harp with Wales.

-It's always great to be home...

-..and to perform in front

-of the Cardis here in Cardigan.

-It's the first time

-that I've performed at the castle.

-# The winter is driven away

-and spring is returning anew #

-It's great to be back in Wales

-after being in Zurich.

-It feels special to perform

-in Cardigan that's so close to home.

-# Li tutti vivono

-in pace e in onesta #

-I'm used to singing

-in groups and duets.

-I've performed in several concerts

-all over the country with Gwawr.

-I've also sang duets with my brother

-and sang with the Ar Ol Tri choir.

-We are all soloists but for tonight,

-the four of us will perform as one.

-# How can you see into my eyes,

-like open doors #

-The four of us are soloists and we

-will continue with our solo careers.

-It's great to form a new group

-and to set new personal challenges.

-We'll learn new songs and it's

-just a new and exciting venture.

-# Bring me to life #

-It's great to combine

-such fantastic voices with the harp.

-I'll also be playing the violin

-to bring a Celtic feel to the music.

-Chris will be playing the drums

-and other percussion instruments.

-This group will have

-a very different and special sound.

-I hope the group will be successful

-and go from strength to strength.

-# Wake me up inside,

-wake me up inside

-# Call my name

-and save me from the dark #

-We're all friends and I used to sing

-in the Urdd Eisteddfod with Gwawr.

-We all know Trystan Llyr Griffiths

-as one of the best tenors in Wales.

-We're all young

-and ready for this next step.

-# Bring me to life #

-CHEERS

-It looked like a great evening

-in Cardigan Castle.

-A few weeks ago, the friends, Rob

-and Dan told us of a cycle tour...

-..of the twelve football stadiums

-of the Welsh Premier League...

-..to raise money for the homeless

-charity, The Wallich.

-The pair finished the ride

-and raised a lot for the charity.

-Congratulations to them.

-You can still donate

-on their JustGiving page.

-There's still plenty

-to come tonight.

-Rhodri Davies tells us about the

-spectacular Vale of Glamorgan Show.

-The Pobol y Cwm actors,

-Dyfan Rees and Aled Llyr Thomas...

-..chat about their latest storyline.

-We hope to get some answers to all

-our questions in a few minutes.

-.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back to Heno.

-The actors, Dyfan Rees and

-Aled Llyr Thomas have joined us.

-Welcome to you both.

-Dyfan and Aled play Tyler

-and Iolo in Pobol y Cwm.

-Last week's Pobol y Cwm

-ended with a cliff-hanger.

-Tell us the story so far.

-There was a cliff-hanger during

-the last episode of Pobol y Cwm.

-Iolo and Tyler have been married

-for a year...

-..and the next step

-is starting a family.

-They considered a surrogacy but

-decided on having a baby with Kelly.

-We didn't agree with all aspects

-of the surrogacy.

-Kelly is very excited

-and enthusiastic.

-This is too much for Tyler.

-Iolo and Kelly are very close

-and Tyler feels on the outside.

-It's a bit like a love triangle.

-Last Friday, Tyler changed his mind

-about the surrogacy.

-They were celebrating when they

-found a baby on their doorstep.

-However, all will be revealed

-tonight.

-Let's see a clip of your storyline

-in Pobol y Cwm.

-Oh, Britt.

-I just wanted to check

-that you're alright.

-She was alright

-but won't take the bottle.

-She's got a temperature.

-This baby is ill.

-I told you.

-We'll call the police again.

-No, don't just call the police but

-phone an ambulance and quickly too!

-There are lots of questions to

-answer on tonight's programme.

-Where does Britt get involved?

-Brit thinks there's something wrong

-with the baby.

-We'll get to find out more

-on tonight's programme.

-I'm being careful

-with what I'm revealing.

-You'll find out more about the baby

-during the coming weeks.

-Pobol y Cwm is great for dealing

-with these storylines.

-The subjects that we cover on

-the programme are very important.

-It's great that we can discuss

-these topics.

-These things don't happen every day.

-I've had some very challenging

-storylines in the past.

-It will be interesting to see

-how Iolo deals with this one.

-Social media plays an important role

-now.

-Next, we visit Fonmon Castle near

-Llantwit Major and Cardiff Airport.

-It hosts the Vale Show, one of the

-oldest agricultural shows in Wales.

-It's one of the biggest events

-for farmers and city slickers.

-Rhodri Davies visited the event

-to hear all about it.

-Welcome to Fonmon Castle Park.

-The Vale of Glamorgan Show

-has been running since 1772.

-As you can see from the

-competitions, stalls and crowds...

-..it's quite a big show

-for a one-day event.

-The show has been running

-for nearly 250 years.

-It's a special event

-in the Vale's calendar.

-It's Wales' largest one-day show

-with 20,000 visitors and 200 stalls.

-My husband is a show jumper

-and he's competing with the horses.

-The show is very special to me.

-I came to live here from Aberystwyth

-and I was warmly welcomed...

-..by the local Young Farmers Club

-and close farming community.

-It's a fantastic show with so many

-things to do for the whole family.

-How long have you

-been attending the show?

-I've been coming for 45 years.

-You're not showing this year

-but you have done so in the past.

-I've won the Group Of Three Dairy

-Cattle category at least ten times.

-I've also won the show champion

-with my Ayrshire cattle.

-What makes this particular show

-so special?

-It's our local show

-so we don't have to travel very far.

-It's such a well-organized show

-and everything ticks over nicely.

-This is the first time

-that I've visited the Vale Show.

-I never knew

-that it was such a large show.

-There's lots to do

-so it's a good family day out.

-What have you enjoyed?

-What have you enjoyed?

-

-I liked watching the woodcutters.

-I've also been to meet

-the Welsh rugby team.

-The show is something different

-and it's lots of fun.

-I've enjoyed the food too.

-There's show jumping in one ring

-and the competitions in the others.

-There's also stock competitions

-with sheep and cattle.

-I've come all the way from Cardigan

-and it's my first time at the show.

-However, my partner lives

-in Bridgend so I've come with her.

-What are you doing here?

-What are you doing here?

-

-We're showing some Ayrshire cattle.

-You're a Cardigan boy so you're used

-to visiting a local community show.

-Yes, people have been friendly and

-approached me to chat about cattle.

-Do you hope to win

-and celebrate with a few pints?

-Yes, I'd like a celebratory pint!

-The Vale of Glamorgan Show

-is fantastic.

-It's Wales' best one-day show.

-The show's roots

-have remained in agriculture.

-The animals are central

-to all aspects of the show.

-The show attracts visitors

-from Barry, Bridgend and Cardiff.

-There's no doubt that it's

-one of the best shows in Wales.

-It looked like a great event.

-Have you ever been

-to the Vale of Glamorgan Show?

-It's only a couple of miles

-from my home.

-I've been in the past

-but didn't go this year.

-What shows have you visited?

-I've been to the Royal Welsh.

-I really enjoyed it.

-I'm from an agricultural background

-so I have to go.

-I've been away for two weeks.

-I went to Belgium, Amsterdam

-and Berlin.

-The Vale Show

-is very close to my home.

-However, I've never been.

-I should go in the future.

-Join me in a few minutes.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back to Heno.

-Whilst thousands of us

-enjoyed at Bodedern last week...

-..London was busy hosting

-the World Athletics Championships.

-The former international athlete,

-Rhys Williams was glued to it.

-What was it like to be watching

-the event as opposed to taking part?

-I don't normally watch the athletics

-on the television...

-..but I really enjoyed the coverage

-this time.

-Five people from Wales competed.

-Some of them did quite well.

-It's a great rehearsal for

-February's Commonwealth Games.

-The World Athletics Championships...

-..was the final event for the racing

-legends, Mo Farah and Usain Bolt.

-Bolt has retired for good.

-I think that he'll miss

-the competition.

-He might return from retirement

-in the future.

-Michael Jordan did the same

-in basketball.

-Bolt is the fastest ever runner.

-He's been the World Champion

-for so long.

-We won't see another man like him.

-However, it would be great to have

-a Welsh counterpart.

-Usain Bolt didn't have the

-fairy-tale finish to his career...

-..that had been predicted.

-It's great to see

-that Bolt isn't superhuman.

-The British team did very well

-under a Welsh trainer.

-Those who've retired will be feeling

-strange today.

-Athletics is a big part

-of your life.

-I don't see them going into

-an office job after athletics.

-I'm sure they'll want a break

-before deciding on the next step.

-I'm sure they'll do something

-in the sporting world.

-Bolt is a big name in Jamaica.

-Bolt couldn't go out to the

-local shop without being spotted.

-It's been difficult for him.

-There was a programme about him

-recently.

-He enjoys going out to clubs

-and having fun.

-I like to look after myself too.

-I wanted to be in good shape

-before my holiday.

-He thinks he's so handsome!

-I like to lift weights.

-I'm a power lifter.

-Do you still train?

-I don't work out

-as often as I used to.

-However, I'd like to do

-a tough mudder in the future.

-That sounds great.

-I'll join you.

-We're always delighted

-to hear from our viewers.

-We recently heard from one viewer

-from the far flung land of America.

-He told us he was taking a holiday

-in Wales so Elin went to meet him.

-Rob Davies is currently on holiday

-in Beddgelert...

-..with his parents and wife, Meagan.

-They live in Alabama in America...

-..but Rob set himself the challenge

-of learning Welsh a few years ago.

-He's now fluent but why is he so

-enchanted by Wales and her language?

-Where did your interest in Wales

-and her language start?

-You live so far away in Alabama

-in America.

-My forefathers

-were from Merthyr Tydfil in Wales.

-They moved to Ohio

-before moving to West Virginia.

-This spurred you into learning Welsh

-but how did you go about it?

-I started learning Welsh

-with the Welsh League of Arizona.

-My first tutor in Arizona

-was Sioni Dda, John Good from Wales.

-Sioni Dda suggested

-that I follow a course...

-..by Cymdeithas Madog or the Welsh

-Studies Institute in North America.

-They offer courses every year

-in North America and Canada.

-I attended my first course with

-Cymdeithas Madog eight years ago.

-It's incredible

-that you're totally fluent.

-No, I'm not

-and feel very uncomfortable.

-I'm stunned that you speak so well

-but have never lived in Wales.

-You make me very happy...

-..but I don't agree with you at all

-as I hear all my mistakes.

-Rob has inspired his wife

-and parents to start learning Welsh.

-I decided to start learning Welsh

-on the night Rob proposed to me.

-He asked me to learn Welsh with him.

-I love languages and I love Rob

-so I'm learning Welsh now.

-He's really inspired us.

-We went to the Welsh language course

-for a week of intensive study.

-What have you learnt so far?

-Wales was the home

-of my forefathers.

-I really love everything

-that's Welsh!

-Well done.

-You've got an incredible job

-in America.

-I've never met

-a rocket scientist before.

-Yes, I'm a rocket scientist.

-It's difficult but not as difficult

-as learning Welsh.

-Being a rocket scientist is easy

-when compared with learning Welsh!

-How has learning the Welsh language

-changed your life?

-It has changed my life...

-..and it's great to feel that link

-with the history of my family.

-I'm very grateful for the language

-and hope to be a true Welshman...

-..one day

-in the very distant future.

-I think you're a true Welshman.

-You're incredible and

-as they say in America, "High five!"

-High five!

-Well done to Rob for learning

-to speak Welsh fluently.

-You're an inspiration, Rob!

-After the break, our cameras

-attend the official opening...

-..of a new children's area

-at Glangwili Hospital in Carmarthen.

-We also chat with the Cardiff band,

-Cadno.

-.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-Tomorrow, thousands of people will

-flock to the Anglesey Showground...

-..for the Anglesey

-Agricultural Show.

-The island also welcomed thousands

-for the National Eisteddfod.

-The Wales Coast Path is a great

-place to admire the beauty of Wales.

-We cannot forget the hardworking

-teams who maintain the path.

-Despite the scenery, Anglesey's

-coastal path needs maintaining.

-Sioned Jones and Dylan Owen

-are responsible for this.

-And just like everyone else,

-they need time to enjoy the view.

-On a morning like this, the Anglesey

-coastal path promotes itself.

-Yes, on a morning such as this,

-it does our job for us.

-Red Wharf Bay must be one of the

-most popular places on the coast.

-Yes, it's a huge bay

-and a wonderful beach.

-It stretches all the way from

-Llanddona across Red Wharf Bay...

-..and up the coast

-to Benllech and Moelfre.

-Tell us a little

-about the coastal path.

-There has been some kind of a

-coastal path since the 1970s.

-Menter Mon took it over

-as a project in the late 1990s.

-Since 2007, the Welsh Government

-and European funding...

-..has helped improve it

-as part of the Wales Coast path.

-We are only 100 yards from the beach

-but we are literally in the forest.

-The coastal path is a circular route

-of about 135 miles.

-In a relatively short distance,

-you have so much variety.

-There are forests, large bays,

-small beaches and fishing villages.

-The variety of habitat is what

-walkers really enjoy about the path.

-We've been on lots of walks,

-but the Anglesey Coastal Path...

-..is particularly beautiful

-and ideally caters for the walker.

-It's easy to walk with no hills,

-lovely scenery and it's marvellous.

-I've enjoyed it very much but I did

-get lost on one of the headlands.

-The path here is very impressive

-and is all made up beautifully.

-I would recommend it to anyone.

-Anglesey is beautiful.

-Red Wharf Bay is only three miles

-away but the maintenance differs.

-In Red Wharf Bay, we were working on

-an old path which was wet and muddy.

-A contractor installed drainage and

-edging to keep people on the path.

-A landslide happened in Benllech

-so the path has been re-established.

-The work's been going well and it's

-great to know that it's appreciated.

-We say that when you finish

-painting Borth bridge...

-..you just start doing so again

-and this path must be just the same.

-Yes, once this is done, we'll move

-on but we could well be back here.

-That's how it is

-across the coastal path.

-We've clipped the plastic netting,

-so the vegetation grows through it.

-It will hold everything in place

-so we can open up the path again.

-Iwan, how is your first day?

-Not too bad, I'm helping Clwyd

-and he's easy to work with.

-You couldn't have a better office!

-You couldn't have a better office!

-

-Is lovely and has splendid views.

-Keep it up, lads.

-It's a very long path.

-Yes, it has plenty of miles.

-I was raised on Anglesey and working

-on the path is great opportunity.

-It's a real treasure

-with something for everyone.

-There's something new to discover

-around every corner.

-The island is a beautiful location.

-Wales boasts some great places.

-It's time to meet

-tonight's musical guests.

-This band formed

-as a bit of a joke in 2013.

-Welcome to the programme, Cadno.

-The joke obviously paid off as

-you're still going four years later.

-Yes, we're still going strong,

-four years later.

-We were in Reading and decided

-to form the band as a joke.

-We're still going strong

-and just released our EP.

-Tell us more about the band.

-I'm Wil and I play the guitar.

-Beca sings and plays the guitar.

-Trystan is on the drums.

-Cadi plays the keyboard.

-We were in school together

-and Trystan then joined us.

-We've just spent four days together

-at the Eisteddfod...

-..and we're still friends

-so it's been fantastic.

-We work well together

-because we're best friends.

-We did well in the Battle

-of the Bands competition.

-Mei Gwynedd is our producer.

-He was one of the judges

-during the competition.

-He told us that he'd love to work

-with us.

-He said that Wales needs Cadno!

-Three years later,

-and we're working with him.

-Our sound is a psychedelic pop.

-People love listening to us so we'll

-continue recording.

-We're playing at Indy Fest

-on 16 September.

-We're at Swansea Fringe

-and in Whitchurch too.

-What are you performing

-for us tonight?

-Tonight's song is called Bang Bang.

-It's from our EP.

-Last week, we heard about the

-Women's Euro Hockey Championships.

-The Wales women's team reached

-the semi-finals but lost to Russia.

-The popularity of hockey

-on a local level has grown.

-The women, men and youth teams at

-Carmarthen Athletic Hockey Club...

-..are preparing for the new season

-and are looking for new members.

-The hockey club

-started 20 years ago...

-..and we still have

-some of the original players.

-Since the 2012 London Olympic Games,

-the club has grown each year...

-..so we now have three ladies teams,

-a men's team and youth teams.

-People can play at all levels

-in this club.

-Some play competitively every week

-whilst others just want to keep fit.

-Tonight, we started our pre-fitness

-campaign for the season.

-There's been a lot of sweating

-and running around...

-..as we prepare for the new season.

-I've played for a year so am quite

-new but it's easy to pick up...

-..and people are happy to teach you.

-You use totally different muscles.

-I was so stiff after my first

-training session on the Tuesday.

-I thought I was quite fit

-within reason.

-It's a great club and would advise

-anyone to grab a stick.

-Borrow your sister's stick

-as few lads own their own stick.

-Come and join us as you'll be hooked

-after a few weeks!

-Good luck to the club.

-It's great to see people

-playing hockey.

-Visiting the hospital

-is never a pleasant experience.

-At Cilgerran Ward

-in Glangwili Hospital...

-..there's a brand-new space

-that's certain to raise a smile.

-Over two years ago, the play area

-closed as it needed lots of work.

-It wasn't safe for the children.

-Our colleague, Jane decided to raise

-money to renovate the play area.

-Unfortunately,

-she wasn't able to see it through...

-..but we ensured that the project

-was completed on her behalf.

-We knew Jane for many years

-and she was a wonderful woman.

-The children and their families

-were always a priority for her.

-When I last visited, the play area

-was full of weeds and broken toys.

-It's now a fantastic space

-with plenty of room to play.

-The children can come here for some

-peace and quiet when they're scared.

-Liwsi was only three weeks old when

-her heart problem was diagnosed.

-Since then, she's been

-in and out of hospital.

-It's great to have somewhere to go

-where there's plenty of fresh air.

-The space has been transformed

-and it looks fantastic.

-It will make a big difference

-to the children and the families.

-It'll give them somewhere to escape

-as it doesn't feel like a hospital.

-It's called Y Lle Hapus or the Happy

-Place as there's a great atmosphere.

-If the children can go outside to

-play, they'll recover much quicker.

-I'll make good use of this space

-during my breaks as it's lovely.

-I'm sure that the children

-will think it's fantastic.

-It looks like a great place.

-I'm sure it will make many children

-happy.

-Dyfan Rees, Aled Llyr Thomas and

-Rhys Williams have been our guests.

-There's a treat ahead

-for the Pobol y Cwm fans.

-Garry, Dani and Sioned

-have an interesting storyline too.

-I'm looking forward to it.

-All will be revelled

-over the coming weeks.

-Pobol y Cwm follows

-tonight's Heno at 8.00pm on S4C.

-You can follow our storyline

-on Twitter with #tylo.

-We have lots of people talking

-of #tylo...

-..so we'd like to thank them.

-We've dealt with stories

-that have helped others.

-We've had many letters of support.

-I'm looking forward to spending

-my retirement with my daughter.

-However, I'm starting a new company

-soon.

-Tomorrow night,

-we're live from the Anglesey Show.

-Daf chats to the Welsh performers

-at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

-We close tonight with Cadno

-performing the song, Bang, Bang.

-# Gazing at the world

-through blue eyes

-# Nobody notices the sky outside

-# Your reasons

-are my favourite colours

-# My reasons are my eyes

-# Ooo-ooo-ooo

-# Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo

-# A heavy weight in your hand,

-do you want to shoot?

-# Bang, bang

-# A candle resting

-at the side of the table

-# A body is close

-but the mind is far away

-# Walking the tightrope

-of your humour

-# There's a crisis in my heart

-# Ooo-ooo-ooo

-# Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo

-# A heavy weight in your hand,

-do you want to shoot?

-# Bang, bang

-# There we are, there we are

-# A heavy weight in your hand,

-do you want to shoot?

-# There we are, there we are

-# A heavy weight in your hand,

-do you want to shoot?

-# There we are, there we are

-# A heavy weight in your hand,

-do you want to shoot?

-# Bang, bang

-# Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo

-# Do you want to shoot?

-# Bang, bang #

-APPLAUSE

-Thank you, that was wonderful.

-Thanks to Cadno

-and to all of your guests tonight.

-Until tomorrow at 7.00pm, goodnight.
