1:06:54 > 1:06:59- Every year, the people of the - Oxford and Collins dictionaries...
1:06:59 > 1:07:01- ..choose the words of the year.
1:07:02 > 1:07:07- This year, the word of the year - for 2017 was fake news!
1:07:09 > 1:07:11- THE LIVE BULLETIN
1:07:12 > 1:07:14- This is the breaking news.
1:07:14 > 1:07:20- After a campaign in Conwy, Snowdon - is now the world's tallest mountain.
1:07:20 > 1:07:23- You are fake news.
1:07:23 > 1:07:28- The word of the year for 2017 is - actually two words and is fake news.
1:07:28 > 1:07:32- That information was false, - fake and never happened.
1:07:32 > 1:07:34- Fake news or "newyddion ffug."
1:07:36 > 1:07:38- Donald Trump has decided...
1:07:38 > 1:07:43- ..that news that doesn't show him - in a positive light is fake news.
1:07:43 > 1:07:44- You're terrible.
1:07:45 > 1:07:49- He's tarnished the reputation - of every television service.
1:07:50 > 1:07:53- He promotes fake news - as if there's no tomorrow.
1:07:53 > 1:07:58- I wonder if there will be a tomorrow - with him in charge!
1:07:59 > 1:08:04- He's even got me questioning - the credibility of the news...
1:08:04 > 1:08:08- ..so I think I've been Trumped!
1:08:13 > 1:08:17- Corbynmania is when people go crazy - over Jeremy Corbin.
1:08:17 > 1:08:20- Young people who hated politics...
1:08:20 > 1:08:24- ..are now interested in the subject - and this man.
1:08:25 > 1:08:29- We should consider - Rhys Meirionrwydd...
1:08:30 > 1:08:32- ..as the latest fever to hit Wales.
1:08:36 > 1:08:40- Gig Economy is when you do a lot - of work but don't get paid for it.
1:08:41 > 1:08:44- The market relies on people - who work sporadically.
1:08:44 > 1:08:47- There's uncertainty - but you get more freedom.
1:08:48 > 1:08:51- I belong to the Gig Economy - which is why I can talk to you!
1:08:53 > 1:08:58- Gender fluid is when a person - does not adhere to any gender.
1:08:58 > 1:09:02- You're a person - rather than a "he" or "she."
1:09:02 > 1:09:04- It's something in the middle.
1:09:05 > 1:09:07- A unicorn isn't just an animal...
1:09:07 > 1:09:12- ..but also a start-up company valued - by the stock market at 1 billion.
1:09:13 > 1:09:19- However, just like the unicorn, - many will think it's an illusion...
1:09:19 > 1:09:23- ..when people realize that - it isn't really worth 1 billion.
1:09:24 > 1:09:27- The word for 2018 is Kushnered.
1:09:27 > 1:09:31- I'm obsessed with following - the stories about Donald Trump.
1:09:32 > 1:09:36- His son-in-law, Jared Kushner - is in a lot of trouble...
1:09:36 > 1:09:39- ..all the way up to his fake smile!
1:09:39 > 1:09:44- Next year, Robert Mueller who is - leading the Russia investigation...
1:09:44 > 1:09:47- ..will say "you've been Kushnered!"
1:09:47 > 1:09:49- He'll be in a whole heap of trouble.
1:09:50 > 1:09:52- I predict the pronoun, Pre.
1:09:52 > 1:09:56- Those who have pre-drinks - are said to be having prinks.
1:09:56 > 1:10:00- This is when you drink at home - with friends before going out.
1:10:01 > 1:10:03- I think it's ridiculous.
1:10:03 > 1:10:07- If there's prinks in English, - we could have "pr-yfed" in Wales.
1:10:07 > 1:10:10- My word for 2018 is Pr-yfed!
1:10:16 > 1:10:21- For many people, - only two words epitomized 2017...
1:10:21 > 1:10:23- ..and they are Star Wars!
1:10:23 > 1:10:25- Cinemas sold all their tickets...
1:10:26 > 1:10:30- ..for the first showing of the film - at midnight on 13 December.
1:10:30 > 1:10:35- The cast included the Welshman, - Mark Lewis Jones.
1:10:39 > 1:10:41- When I found you...
1:10:42 > 1:10:45- ..I saw raw...
1:10:46 > 1:10:48- ..untamed power.
1:10:50 > 1:10:53- And beyond that...
1:10:55 > 1:10:58- ..something truly special.
1:11:02 > 1:11:07- We're sitting - in a lovely cafe in Pontcanna...
1:11:07 > 1:11:11- ..which is a whole galaxy - away from Star Wars!
1:11:11 > 1:11:13- How did that happen?
1:11:13 > 1:11:16- I had an audition...
1:11:16 > 1:11:20- ..not for this film - but the previous one.
1:11:20 > 1:11:24- Every actor I know auditioned for it - and I heard nothing.
1:11:25 > 1:11:28- They must have a list - of the people they like...
1:11:28 > 1:11:30- ..as a year later...
1:11:30 > 1:11:35- ..I got a call to say they wanted me - for the film that has just opened.
1:11:36 > 1:11:38- I only know one truth.
1:11:45 > 1:11:47- It's time for the Jedi...
1:11:48 > 1:11:50- ..to end!
1:11:50 > 1:11:54- It's being classed - as one of the best films ever made.
1:11:54 > 1:11:59- It's shrouded in secrecy and - nobody is allowed to know anything.
1:11:59 > 1:12:02- Even the actors - weren't told anything.
1:12:02 > 1:12:06- I went for a costume fitting - before we started filming...
1:12:07 > 1:12:12- ..and they handed me a tablet - or an iPad with my lines on it.
1:12:13 > 1:12:15- They gave me my lines...
1:12:15 > 1:12:19- ..and said I wouldn't see them - until the day of filming...
1:12:19 > 1:12:23- ..so I took a photograph of them!
1:12:23 > 1:12:29- There's so much secrecy - about the whole thing.
1:12:29 > 1:12:33- I wasn't even allowed to tell people - that I was working on it.
1:12:33 > 1:12:38- We've loved watching you recently - in Un Bore Mercher...
1:12:38 > 1:12:40- ..which is fantastic.
1:12:41 > 1:12:45- Yes, and I'm delighted - with the response it's been getting.
1:12:45 > 1:12:48- I'm proud to be a part of it.
1:12:48 > 1:12:54- Your career is thriving because - you've already got work for 2018.
1:12:54 > 1:12:57- Yes, I'm going to Prague - in January...
1:12:57 > 1:13:01- ..to make a new series for Amazon - called Carnival Row.
1:13:01 > 1:13:03- It also stars Orlando Bloom.
1:13:03 > 1:13:08- I'll play the chief of police - so we'll wait and see how it goes.
1:13:08 > 1:13:11- It's why I've got these!
1:13:12 > 1:13:14- You're obviously - not short of work.
1:13:15 > 1:13:21- Does your role in Star Wars mean - Hollywood producers and directors...
1:13:21 > 1:13:25- ..will look at you - in a different light?
1:13:25 > 1:13:28- This profession - doesn't make any sense!
1:13:28 > 1:13:30- I'm happy with what I'm doing...
1:13:30 > 1:13:35- ..and hope there's a second series - of Un Bore Mercher to do next year.
1:13:35 > 1:13:40- That would be lovely but it's also - important to finish Byw Celwydd.
1:13:40 > 1:13:45- Meic Povey's death left its mark - but you're still making Byw Celwydd.
1:13:45 > 1:13:48- It will be a great pleasure - to go back to it.
1:13:48 > 1:13:52- It will be strange - because Meic won't be there...
1:13:52 > 1:13:55- ..but we need to finish it - as he would have wanted.
