0:01:39 > 0:01:43- It's a sell-out but I've been lucky - enough to go behind the scenes.

0:01:44 > 0:01:49- I'm at the smallest cafe in Wales - if not the whole world.

0:01:49 > 0:01:56- It might be small but there's - plenty of coffee and fresh cakes!

0:01:56 > 0:02:01- We remember the photojournalist, - Philip Jones Griffiths...

0:02:02 > 0:02:07- ..who's being honoured at a - special event by BAFTA in London.

0:02:07 > 0:02:12- Philip is best known for his iconic - photographs of the Vietnam War.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15- It was an incredible weekend - for Welsh rugby...

0:02:15 > 0:02:19- ..with victories for the under 20s - and the women's squad.

0:02:19 > 0:02:24- The crowning glory was the 27-23 win - against Scotland for the lads.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28- It's apt that we're joined - by Gareth Davies...

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- We start the programme with the - composer Emyr Huws Jones or Ems.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51- Welcome to the programme.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54- Thank you.

0:02:54 > 0:02:57- After many years of composing songs - for various artists...

0:02:58 > 0:03:10- ..why did you decide to release your - first solo CD and on your birthday?

0:03:10 > 0:03:14- You're releasing the album - on your birthday.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17- Happy birthday to you.

0:03:19 > 0:03:22- I'll be singing most of the songs - on the album.

0:03:22 > 0:03:25- Everyone is familiar - with your songs...

0:03:25 > 0:03:29- ..and they've been performed by - an array of artists over the years.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32- Let's see what makes you - and your songs so special.

0:03:33 > 0:03:37- # Of course you can walk - along my path

0:03:37 > 0:03:44- # You can wander where you please - across my land #

0:03:44 > 0:03:51- Emyr Huws Jones' contribution to - Welsh pop, rock and folk music...

0:03:51 > 0:03:56- ..is enormous.

0:03:57 > 0:04:05- Ems is a quiet man in many respects, - uncomplicated and sincere.

0:04:05 > 0:04:09- I think his songs reflect that.

0:04:09 > 0:04:14- # I am the lighthouse keeper #

0:04:14 > 0:04:19- He makes complicated songs - sound simple.

0:04:20 > 0:04:27- There's something about his songs - and the characters he creates.

0:04:27 > 0:04:32- They touch people and resonate - with most of the population.

0:04:32 > 0:04:41- So many people - can associate with them.

0:04:41 > 0:04:49- R Williams-Parry said, 'I find more - pleasure in the sea than mountains'.

0:04:49 > 0:04:53- As one born in Llangefni there were - plenty of gorgeous beaches...

0:04:53 > 0:04:57- ..within easy reach.

0:04:57 > 0:05:00- # There's a blue sea - around Llanddwyn island

0:05:01 > 0:05:04- # And that is where I bathe

0:05:04 > 0:05:13- # Where the birds fish - and where you come with me #

0:05:13 > 0:05:18- The first time I met Ems - was at college in Cardiff.

0:05:18 > 0:05:23- He had a huge mop of blonde hair.

0:05:23 > 0:05:28- I remember him as a nice, - gently-spoken man.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30- He's changed.

0:05:30 > 0:05:34- The Seventies were a very happy era.

0:05:34 > 0:05:39- I lived with him in Cardiff but had - met him years earlier in Aberystwyth

0:05:39 > 0:05:45- He has been such a prolific writer - for almost 50 years.

0:05:45 > 0:05:49- A wide variety of artists - have performed his songs...

0:05:49 > 0:05:53- ..like Tebot Piws, John ac Alun, - Bryn Fon and Mynediad am Ddim.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57- # She is my friend

0:05:57 > 0:06:03- # She's the only one - that makes my life worth living

0:06:03 > 0:06:08- He wrote all our good songs - from the early days.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11- We're still singing those songs - 40 years later.

0:06:11 > 0:06:16- # She is my friend #

0:06:16 > 0:06:20- He has made an enormous - contribution.

0:06:20 > 0:06:25- He's written for Mynediad, Tebot - Piws and so many solo artists.

0:06:25 > 0:06:33- # You're a fairytale boy

0:06:33 > 0:06:44- There's a gentility in his songs and - I hear his voice in his songs.

0:06:45 > 0:06:51- The genius in his music is the fact - that it is so accessible.

0:06:51 > 0:06:58- There are songs for solo artists - and are just as suited...

0:06:58 > 0:07:02- ..to be sung by choirs.

0:07:03 > 0:07:10- # The damp walls glisten

0:07:10 > 0:07:17- # I am the lighthouse keeper

0:07:17 > 0:07:24- When we were in Tebot, - he didn't always turn up!

0:07:24 > 0:07:30- That wasn't his fault - - he often didn't know.

0:07:30 > 0:07:42- I used to tease him - that the blankets were too heavy.

0:07:42 > 0:07:50- Dewi Pws lies - when he claims that he's lazy!

0:07:50 > 0:07:54- If you don't know Ems, - you'll think that he's a quiet man.

0:07:55 > 0:08:07- But he has a very sharp tongue - and a double quick wit.

0:08:21 > 0:08:26- It works in most languages.

0:08:26 > 0:08:31- You could translate it - and it would transcend nations.

0:08:31 > 0:08:38- I think what he has to say - is in his songs.

0:08:39 > 0:08:43- Some of his songs are getting deeper - and filled with longing...

0:08:43 > 0:08:48- ..as he gets older.

0:08:48 > 0:08:52- I'm thrilled he's launched this CD.

0:08:53 > 0:09:04- I'm glad he's started singing - his own songs again.

0:09:04 > 0:09:11- # This is him

0:09:11 > 0:09:16- # A real weekend rebel #

0:09:16 > 0:09:22- You've been very generous - with all your songs.

0:09:22 > 0:09:29- The performers of your songs - have had all the credit.

0:09:29 > 0:09:36- Dewi Pws is a good friend of yours.

0:09:36 > 0:09:41- Dewi was quite nice there.

0:09:42 > 0:09:47- He can do it when he tries.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50- It's all lies about - the being late for gigs.

0:09:50 > 0:09:56- He never let me know - about rehearsals.

0:09:56 > 0:10:01- Tell us about your new album.

0:10:01 > 0:10:06- I'm singing the songs - on this new album.

0:10:06 > 0:10:12- I sing about half of the tracks - which is more than usual.

0:10:13 > 0:10:18- I think it was about time I did.

0:10:20 > 0:10:24- I did a gig at Criccieth - with Bryn Fon a few years ago.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27- I sang two songs on my own - for the first time.

0:10:27 > 0:10:38- The CD was the next step.

0:10:38 > 0:10:42- Was it different - to write for yourself?

0:10:43 > 0:10:47- Writing my own songs is just - the same as writing for anyone else.

0:10:48 > 0:10:57- There is a song on the CD - which I could have sung myself...

0:10:57 > 0:11:04- ..but I could hear Linda - singing it in my head...

0:11:04 > 0:11:13- ..so I asked her to record it.

0:11:13 > 0:11:20- There are links between the songs - on the Perthyn album.

0:11:20 > 0:11:26- There are songs about people - who want to start over again.

0:11:26 > 0:11:36- There's one about my brother.

0:11:36 > 0:11:43- They're all linked to Anglesey.

0:11:43 > 0:11:49- Did you feel under more pressure - writing for yourself?

0:11:49 > 0:11:58- I'm not nervous - about the response to the CD.

0:11:58 > 0:12:02- I've never pretended - to be a good singer...

0:12:02 > 0:12:07- ..but I'm not too bad.

0:12:07 > 0:12:15- I'll always keep writing.

0:12:15 > 0:12:27- Gigs will have to be - very special events.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32- I'd hate to do gigs where people - keep drinking and talking throughout

0:12:32 > 0:12:42- It would have to be the right offer.

0:12:43 > 0:12:48- At the Eisteddfod, there's - a memorial prize for Sbardun.

0:12:48 > 0:12:53- I'll be launching - the Sbardun memorial trophy.

0:12:53 > 0:12:59- It will be awarded for the best - original folk song.

0:13:00 > 0:13:12- Bryn Fon and I will be the judges - in the first year.

0:13:13 > 0:13:19- There is a beautiful trophy - and a monetary prize.

0:13:19 > 0:13:31- We want to nurture new talent.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36- Everyone who knew Sbardun - knew that he was generous...

0:13:36 > 0:13:46- ..especially with his time.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50- He was very supportive of - young people breaking into music.

0:13:50 > 0:13:59- What are you performing later?

0:13:59 > 0:14:07- I'll be performing - the title track, Perthyn.

0:14:07 > 0:14:12- I finished writing these songs - some three years ago.

0:14:12 > 0:14:17- They've been polished since.

0:14:17 > 0:14:24- I've already started working - on more songs.

0:14:24 > 0:14:27- Bob Dylan is still writing - so I'll do the same!

0:14:27 > 0:14:29- Thank you, Ems.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32- Daf Wyn is one of those people - who enjoys travelling.

0:14:33 > 0:14:34- After the break...

0:14:34 > 0:14:37- ..he's at the smallest cafe in Wales - if not the world!

0:14:37 > 0:14:40- We also chat with Gareth Davies, - the chairman of the WRU.

0:14:40 > 0:14:44- I'm sure he's a very proud man after - a successful weekend for Wales.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47- Join us in a few minutes.

0:14:48 > 0:14:48- .

0:14:53 > 0:14:58- Subtitles

0:15:00 > 0:15:02- Welcome back.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05- Gareth Davies, the chairman - of the WRU has joined us.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07- Welcome to the programme.

0:15:08 > 0:15:13- Thank you.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16- We'll chat to you more in a moment, - Gareth.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19- you've ever been for a coffee?

0:15:19 > 0:15:22- It's become a common practice - for friends to meet for a cuppa.

0:15:22 > 0:15:27- You can do that at a new site - in Glanamman near Ammanford.

0:15:27 > 0:15:32- It isn't any old cafe, but possibly - the smallest cafe in Wales.

0:15:32 > 0:15:35- Daf went to have a look at it.

0:15:37 > 0:15:44- At one time, Glanamman was home - to cafes, a butcher and a pub.

0:15:44 > 0:15:49- However, due to the - introduction of superstores...

0:15:49 > 0:15:56- ..many amenities aren't as easy - to find as they were 50 years ago.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59- However, things have changed.

0:15:59 > 0:16:03- A special new cafe has recently - opened in the village.

0:16:03 > 0:16:07- This could possibly be the smallest - cafe in Wales and even the world!

0:16:07 > 0:16:13- A few weeks ago, Pantycelyn Tea Room - officially opened its door.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16- It's run by a local family.

0:16:16 > 0:16:22- Husband and wife, Matthew and Gemma - bake delicacies for the community.

0:16:22 > 0:16:27- However, why did they choose to open - the cafe in such a small building?

0:16:27 > 0:16:32- My mother started by making cakes - for herself, friends and family.

0:16:32 > 0:16:39- She saw a gap in the market - and an opportunity to make money.

0:16:40 > 0:16:47- It's somewhere to buy dinner - which is great for busy workers.

0:16:47 > 0:16:52- This is a great alternative - to buying meal deals from Tesco.

0:16:52 > 0:16:58- The cafe sells homemade food - which is really tasty.

0:16:58 > 0:17:02- We sell tea cakes and paninis.

0:17:02 > 0:17:06- The cafe took two years to renovate - this old building.

0:17:07 > 0:17:12- It was built during World War II and - it's been home to many businesses.

0:17:13 > 0:17:18- The building was a ruin and nearly - demolished before they took it over.

0:17:18 > 0:17:25- It was originally the - Glanamman valley's radio shop.

0:17:25 > 0:17:29- It was somewhere you could buy - and come to repair your radio.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32- In those days, not many people - had access to electricity.

0:17:33 > 0:17:37- My grandfather lived up - near the mountain...

0:17:37 > 0:17:41- ..and he had to replace the battery - of the radio every week.

0:17:41 > 0:17:45- The building was a betting shop - until the turn of the century...

0:17:45 > 0:17:50- ..when it closed due to - the deteriorating building.

0:17:50 > 0:17:54- During the renovations, did they aim - to open Wales' smallest cafe?

0:17:54 > 0:17:59- It wasn't our intention as we - were looking for a nice place...

0:17:59 > 0:18:03- ..where some of the people in the - village could have a cup of tea.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07- We wanted somewhere small and cute.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11- Once we got going, - we saw that it was very small!

0:18:11 > 0:18:13- We didn't advertise when we opened.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16- We were hoping - to ease ourselves in gently...

0:18:16 > 0:18:19- ..but it hasn't turned out that way.

0:18:19 > 0:18:21- It's been really busy, - which is excellent.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24- It was a bit of a shock - but really good.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31- It's wonderful here.

0:18:31 > 0:18:36- It's hard to believe that they've - fitted so much in a small building.

0:18:36 > 0:18:42- I didn't think there would be room - as it looks tiny from the outside.

0:18:42 > 0:18:49- However, it's quite spacious.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53- There are fantastic - finishing touches.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55- It's been lots of work - but it's been worth it.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59- If this cafe hadn't opened, - we'd all be anorexic!

0:18:59 > 0:19:04- We wouldn't have anywhere - to eat cakes.

0:19:04 > 0:19:08- I had a carrot cake - and half a scone.

0:19:08 > 0:19:13- I'm taking the other half home!

0:19:13 > 0:19:17- We needed somewhere - where the community could meet.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21- It's a great place to meet - during the day.

0:19:21 > 0:19:24- Is the family happy - with how the cafe has turned out?

0:19:24 > 0:19:27- Yes, we're all very proud - of our mother.

0:19:27 > 0:19:28- Do you get lots of free cakes?

0:19:28 > 0:19:31- Do you get lots of free cakes?- - Yes, and a homemade dinner.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37- Contact us in the usual format...

0:19:37 > 0:19:41- ..if you know of cafe smaller - than the Pantycelyn Tiny Tea Room.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45- We're now joined by the chairman - of the WRU, Gareth Davies.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48- Welcome to Heno.

0:19:48 > 0:19:52- Thank you.

0:19:52 > 0:19:59- It was an incredible weekend - for Welsh rugby.

0:19:59 > 0:20:06- You must be very happy - with the results.

0:20:06 > 0:20:12- The Welsh teams did very well - over the weekend.

0:20:13 > 0:20:23- The Scots lads are great.

0:20:23 > 0:20:27- I felt sorry for them - as they are in the same position...

0:20:27 > 0:20:30- ..that we were in a few years ago.

0:20:30 > 0:20:34- They just can't quite seem - to get there despite playing well.

0:20:34 > 0:20:40- The women's team did well.

0:20:40 > 0:20:45- The girls have had - a lot more coverage this year.

0:20:45 > 0:20:52- It is very important for the WRU.

0:20:52 > 0:21:02- The game is growing faster - than the men's game.

0:21:02 > 0:21:09- We are looking to create - something much more formal...

0:21:09 > 0:21:17- ..for the women's Six Nations.

0:21:17 > 0:21:24- You have a short break - before the next game.

0:21:24 > 0:21:29- The players have a week off - but our work carries on.

0:21:29 > 0:21:34- We play France in ten days' time.

0:21:34 > 0:21:46- The new youth board - is part of our aim...

0:21:46 > 0:21:55- ..to bring a new generation - of people into the rugby fold.

0:21:55 > 0:21:58- We had the first meeting today - and the energy in the room...

0:21:58 > 0:22:00- ..was absolutely phenomenal.

0:22:01 > 0:22:08- Half the board were girls.

0:22:08 > 0:22:15- What did you discuss at the meeting?

0:22:16 > 0:22:25- Rugby is represented by old codgers - and we want to change that.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30- They all communicate differently - and want new things from rugby.

0:22:31 > 0:22:39- I think it's a very positive - initiative.

0:22:39 > 0:22:45- They'll meet 3-4 times a year - to come up with new ideas.

0:22:45 > 0:22:52- Rugby is doing well - in North Wales too.

0:22:52 > 0:22:57- Rugby in North Wales is growing.

0:22:57 > 0:23:07- They are doing well - in the championship.

0:23:07 > 0:23:10- One in three players - comes from North Wales now.

0:23:10 > 0:23:14- George North is the current star.

0:23:14 > 0:23:19- The game has changed since our days.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34- ..Philip Jones Griffiths - in Rhuddlan.

0:27:34 > 0:27:38- His work during the Vietnam War - was incredibly important...

0:28:06 > 0:28:09- Philip Jones Griffiths...

0:28:09 > 0:28:14- ..was one of the most influential - photographers of the 20th century.

0:28:15 > 0:28:21- The famous photographer, - Henri Cartier-Bresson said...

0:28:21 > 0:28:28- "Not since Goya has anyone portrayed - war like Philip Jones Griffiths."

0:28:28 > 0:28:34- He championed the underdog and - always looked for the most fragile..

0:28:34 > 0:28:39- ..whether that was in Vietnam, - Wales, Northern Ireland or Zambia.

0:28:39 > 0:28:45- He wanted their story and that stems - from his upbringing in Rhuddlan.

0:28:45 > 0:28:49- The Rhuddlan boy travelled to over - 100 countries during his career...

0:28:49 > 0:28:55- ..and photographed wars in Algeria, - Vietnam, Cambodia and Israel.

0:28:55 > 0:28:59- He always had - one question on his lips.

0:28:59 > 0:29:06- Mam always asked - "Why do you always ask why?!"

0:29:07 > 0:29:16- And this was true of when I started - working for The Observer.

0:29:16 > 0:29:24- Fleet Street spoke of the five Ws - - Who? Why? What? Where? When?

0:29:24 > 0:29:28- But to me, it was more important - to know why!

0:29:28 > 0:29:31- In the 1950s and early 1960s...

0:29:31 > 0:29:36- ..Philip was happy to photograph - the day-to-day life in Britain...

0:29:37 > 0:29:42- ..from familiar faces in London - to the impoverished parts of Wales.

0:29:42 > 0:29:47- I was doing a story - and spent a week in Merthyr.

0:29:47 > 0:29:52- Pantywaun was a very poor place - near Merthyr...

0:29:52 > 0:29:58- ..and I spotted a little boy - trying to destroy a grand piano.

0:29:58 > 0:30:01- I asked what he was doing...

0:30:01 > 0:30:05- ..and he said - "my mother gave it to me to mend."

0:30:05 > 0:30:10- Wales was in his blood - and he was Welsh to the core...

0:30:11 > 0:30:15- ..but he's best known - for his work in Southern Asia.

0:30:15 > 0:30:19- You could argue that Vietnam - was the first televised war...

0:30:19 > 0:30:23- ..but Philip Jones Griffiths' - photographs were different...

0:30:23 > 0:30:29- ..because he went beyond - the typical image of war.

0:30:29 > 0:30:34- War was brushed to the side...

0:30:34 > 0:30:41- ..and his photographs concentrate - on the people of Vietnam.

0:30:41 > 0:30:47- There's one photograph of a woman - who's head is wrapped in bandages.

0:30:48 > 0:30:54- The label reads "female" and - that is the epitome of war for me.

0:30:55 > 0:31:00- I saw some truly horrific things - whilst I was in Vietnam.

0:31:01 > 0:31:07- War isn't like Hollywood - - it's much worse!

0:31:07 > 0:31:12- Having said that, I still - have nightmares about Vietnam.

0:31:12 > 0:31:23- As soon as my head hits the pillow, - I'm back in Vietnam or Cambodia.

0:31:23 > 0:31:30- He collected photographs and - compiled a book called Vietnam Ink.

0:31:31 > 0:31:38- It was very influential and many - Americans started to oppose the war.

0:31:39 > 0:31:44- Many believe that Philip's images - changed the stance of Americans.

0:31:44 > 0:31:48- Before seeing - Philip's photographs...

0:31:49 > 0:31:57- ..they thought of Vietnam - as a distant, unemotional country.

0:31:58 > 0:32:03- His horrific photographs of war - were like a slap in their face.

0:32:03 > 0:32:07- He was the thorn in the side - of the authorities of South Vietnam.

0:32:07 > 0:32:11- The president, Nguyen Van Thieu...

0:32:11 > 0:32:16- ..had a list of people that he - didn't want back in his country...

0:32:16 > 0:32:21- ..and Mr Griffiths - was at the top of the list.

0:32:21 > 0:32:27- He was a giant of a man - and an incredible photographer.

0:36:50 > 0:36:53- ..written by T Rowland Hughes - in 1946.

0:36:54 > 0:36:58- It chronicles the story of the Ifans - family in an imaginary quarry town.

0:36:58 > 0:37:02- It's plain to see - that the Penrhyn Quarry strike...

0:37:02 > 0:37:05- ..was the inspiration for the story.

0:37:05 > 0:37:10- As a member of the quarry committee, - I present to you, Mr Henry Alexander

0:37:10 > 0:37:16- The workforce wish to complain about - the way the quarry has been run...

0:37:16 > 0:37:18- ..in these recent troubled times.

0:37:18 > 0:37:23- It follows the tale of Edward and - Martha Ifans' family...

0:37:23 > 0:37:28- ..during the Penrhyn Quarry strike.

0:37:28 > 0:37:34- Edwards Ifans is the chairman of the - quarrymen's committee.

0:37:34 > 0:37:40- At the start of the play, they are - all together - both the family...

0:37:40 > 0:37:43- ..and the community in the strike.

0:37:43 > 0:37:47- As the story develops, - the community begins to split.

0:37:47 > 0:37:51- It reflects the breakdown - in the community...

0:37:51 > 0:37:54- ..and in families when members - had to move south to find work.

0:37:55 > 0:37:59- The sadness that creates after - such a hard life in the village.

0:37:59 > 0:38:03- This is a very important story - in our nation's history.

0:38:03 > 0:38:08- The Penrhyn strike was the biggest - in the whole of Great Britain.

0:38:08 > 0:38:12- It had a tremendous effect - on the local community.

0:38:17 > 0:38:22- ..we would not be able to enjoy - the workers' rights we have today.

0:38:22 > 0:38:30- One man's freedom is another man's - slavery, Mr Alexander.

0:38:31 > 0:38:35- It's a very heavy, deep story.

0:38:36 > 0:38:39- The challenge for us as actors - is to maintain that...

0:38:39 > 0:38:46- ..without making people miserable.

0:38:46 > 0:38:53- It's a heartfelt story.

0:38:53 > 0:38:56- We'll settle things - one way or another.

0:38:57 > 0:39:00- There's a strong cast - of actors who are old hands...

0:39:00 > 0:39:03- ..at performing - on the professional stage.

0:39:49 > 0:39:52- What's it like to be a part of this?

0:39:52 > 0:39:56- It's incredible as I get to work - with a professional cast.

0:39:56 > 0:40:00- This is a very lonely place.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03- It's just fantastic working - with professional actors...

0:45:31 > 0:45:35- # I see two people on Lon Fron

0:45:35 > 0:45:39- # Running hand-in-hand

0:45:39 > 0:45:43- # Racing towards their home

0:45:43 > 0:45:47- # To the late afternoon's - roaring fire

0:45:47 > 0:45:51- # And I may not see their faces

0:45:51 > 0:45:56- # But I know them very well

0:45:59 > 0:46:03- # Is there someone in the bracken

0:46:03 > 0:46:07- # Where the path comes to an end?

0:46:07 > 0:46:11- # But maybe the thing I can hear

0:46:15 > 0:46:19- # Trampling through my dreams

0:46:19 > 0:46:23- # Disturbing everything under foot

0:46:23 > 0:46:27- # But the old longing

0:46:27 > 0:46:31- # Is still simmering - through my veins #
