0:30:36 > 0:30:40- Zena was my host and I stayed - with her at her apartment.
0:30:40 > 0:30:44- I didn't see anything of Athens.
0:30:44 > 0:30:48- It was all about her personal story.
0:30:48 > 0:30:52- Was she happy to share the story?
0:30:53 > 0:30:59- Yes, she was.
0:30:59 > 0:31:05- She insisted that I stayed - with her...

0:32:14 > 0:32:24- It's very complicated.
0:32:24 > 0:32:29- That was just one of the stories - that started this journey for me.
0:32:29 > 0:32:32- I wanted to visit the camps.
0:32:32 > 0:32:37- I've got a lot of photographs.
0:32:38 > 0:32:42- I can't show the photographs - of the people...
0:32:42 > 0:32:50- ..as we have to be cautious.

0:33:31 > 0:33:41- It's online at the moment - on the BBC website.
0:33:41 > 0:33:48- I realized that our problems - are quite pathetic...
0:33:48 > 0:33:53- ..when you compare them - to that of those people.
0:33:53 > 0:34:01- Everyone has problems.
0:34:01 > 0:34:05- This has put it all - into perspective.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08- Do you keep in contact?
0:34:08 > 0:34:12- I'm still chatting with Zena.
0:34:18 > 0:34:22- I had a video from one of - the children too this morning.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24- Thank you, Nia.
0:34:24 > 0:34:28- Wearing make-up for the first time - can be baffling for teens at school.
0:34:29 > 0:34:33- How much make-up is acceptable - and what's best for your skin?
0:34:33 > 0:34:37- Our beauty expert, Emma Jenkins - is here to answer your dilemmas.
0:34:37 > 0:34:41- Today, I've returned to school - to show these girls...
0:34:41 > 0:34:46- ..how they can wear pretty make-up - that's suitable for the classroom.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53- Choose a foundation - that matches your skin tone.
0:34:53 > 0:34:56- Today, - I'm using Infallible by L'Oreal...
0:34:57 > 0:35:00- ..as it stays put all day - and controls oil.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02- By using a brush to apply make-up...
0:35:02 > 0:35:06- ..you'll use less of the product - and achieve a more natural look.
0:35:06 > 0:35:10- Add a dab of concealer to areas - that need more coverage...
0:35:10 > 0:35:15- ..including the under-eyes, - on spots or patches of redness.
0:35:15 > 0:35:23- This palette from Rimmel will - add shape and colour to the face.
0:35:23 > 0:35:31- ..and the highlighter on the upper - cheek-bones, brow bone and nose.
0:35:31 > 0:35:36- Are the rules surrounding - wearing make-up to school?
0:35:36 > 0:35:39- Our school hasn't banned make-up.
0:35:39 > 0:35:44- However, there's a fine line between - acceptable everyday make-up...
0:35:44 > 0:35:48- ..and something that's - better suited to the weekend.
0:35:48 > 0:35:52- We don't want to encourage pupils - to wear make-up to school...
0:35:52 > 0:35:57- ..but if they're going to do so, - we want them to be sensible.
0:35:57 > 0:36:01- There's a culture of wearing layers - of make-up amongst youngsters.
0:36:01 > 0:36:06- Do you think that it's suitable - for the classroom?
0:36:06 > 0:36:10- There are several reason - why pupils choose to wear make-up.
0:36:10 > 0:36:14- They feel under pressure - from their friends.
0:36:14 > 0:36:19- They also enjoy experimenting - and it boosts their confidence.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22- The school aims to promote - self-confidence...
0:36:23 > 0:36:27- ..in and out of the classroom.
0:36:27 > 0:36:32- At this age, pupils tend - to develop spots or blemishes...
0:36:32 > 0:36:41- ..so wearing a little make-up - can help them feel more confident.
0:36:41 > 0:36:46- Bea has joined me - and I've already perfected her skin.
0:36:46 > 0:36:58- Fill in the brows using a - fine pencil to mimic natural hairs.
0:37:02 > 0:37:09- Use a good mascara - to define and open up the eyes.
0:37:10 > 0:37:15- Lip liner is a wonderful way - to shape the lip.
0:37:15 > 0:37:22- This one from NYX looks perfect - with a little natural gloss.
0:37:22 > 0:37:28- I do wear cosmetics to school but I - don't wear a full face of make-up.
0:37:28 > 0:37:33- I like the look - because I love the eyebrows.
0:37:33 > 0:37:36- It's also easy to recreate at home.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39- I like the look - because it's very natural.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43- It's a great look for school - and I really like it.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48- I'll try to get up 15 minutes - earlier to recreate this look.
0:37:49 > 0:37:53- And there's more advice from Emma - on Prynhawn Da tomorrow afternoon.
0:37:53 > 0:37:57- Nia also produces a programme - on Radio Cymru called Atebion.
0:37:58 > 0:38:02- The programme deals with issues - that matter to young people...
0:38:03 > 0:38:08- ..and image is among - the most popular topics.
0:38:08 > 0:38:12- Yes, a lot of people - worry about their image.
0:38:12 > 0:38:19- I was looking at that clip.
0:38:19 > 0:38:26- The Internet has changed everything.
0:38:26 > 0:38:35- They all focus on vlogs.
0:38:35 > 0:38:41- A lot of young people know - about make-up.
0:38:42 > 0:38:45- Boys also wear make-up now.
0:38:45 > 0:38:51- I wear make-up now - because I'm on telly.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54- I'd do your make-up on Bandit!
0:38:55 > 0:38:59- It's time for a break but there's - still plenty to enjoy tonight.
0:39:00 > 0:39:05- I'm at the Gwili Pottery to make my - own crockery which is very popular.

0:39:15 > 0:39:17- Subtitles
0:39:20 > 0:39:24- Welcome back.
0:39:24 > 0:39:30- Would you shell out 2,000 a year - to attend a pottery course?
0:39:30 > 0:39:36- A few hours behind a potter's wheel - helps relieve stresses of the day.
0:39:36 > 0:39:41- But Mari found a cheaper way - of making crockery in Wales.
0:39:47 > 0:39:51- Wales isn't short of potteries.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55- There's Nantgarw, Porth Llwyd - and Ewenny to name but a few.
0:39:55 > 0:40:00- Today, I've come to the - Gwili Pottery in the Towy Valley.
0:40:05 > 0:40:11- The Gwili Pottery began in the 1970s - and Mam has been here for 20 years.
0:40:11 > 0:40:14- What do you make here?
0:40:14 > 0:40:19- We make mugs, plates, - teapots, cookie jars...
0:40:19 > 0:40:22- ..and personalized items - in Welsh and English.
0:40:22 > 0:40:26- We'll do our best - to meet your needs.
0:40:27 > 0:40:32- Viewers of Heno and Prynhawn Da - are familiar with a special plate.
0:40:32 > 0:40:37- This is the Salt of the Earth plate - to thank you for all you do.
0:40:37 > 0:40:41- We've been lucky enough to make - the Salt of the Earth plates...
0:40:41 > 0:40:47- ..and have made hundreds of them - so they are all over the place.
0:40:47 > 0:40:53- The mother and daughter realize that - people want to make their own items.
0:40:53 > 0:40:58- They want to paint their own - crockery or work on the wheel...
0:40:58 > 0:41:04- ..so we've opened at Pontarsais for - people to give it a go themselves.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08- Lowri Johnston is one person - who enjoys getting creative.
0:41:08 > 0:41:11- I'd never made my own crockery...
0:41:12 > 0:41:15- ..but saw an episode of the BBC's - The Great Pottery Throw Down.
0:41:15 > 0:41:19- During the episode, I knew I wanted - to try it so looked for lessons.
0:41:20 > 0:41:28- If I've had a hard day, I can switch - off for two hours and it's great.
0:41:28 > 0:41:36- I make items for the home such as - mugs, vases, plates and small bowls.
0:41:36 > 0:41:41- I've started my own collection and - make pieces for friends and family.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45- The Gwili Pottery - welcomes people of all ages.
0:41:46 > 0:41:51- It can be so messy - when you do things at home.
0:41:51 > 0:41:55- It should keep them entertained - for the afternoon...
0:41:56 > 0:41:59- ..but after ten minutes, the - kitchen's a mess and they are bored.
0:41:59 > 0:42:05- This place has a kiln and a wheel - that you cannot recreate at home.
0:42:05 > 0:42:15- Having this on your own doorstep - in the countryside is very special.
0:42:15 > 0:42:20- I've worked here for a few years - but it doesn't feel like work.
0:42:20 > 0:42:24- It's a lovely job - as I can relax whilst painting.
0:42:24 > 0:42:30- I'm currently working - on our popular Howie pattern.
0:42:30 > 0:42:34- I'd usually decorate - the whole plate...
0:42:34 > 0:42:40- ..but this is a commission where - they just want a patterned edge.
0:42:43 > 0:42:49- Children, babies and - even grandparents come and try it.
0:42:50 > 0:42:54- We've done hen parties, - birthdays and retirement presents.
0:42:55 > 0:43:00- It helps to chill out - and give me some time out.
0:43:01 > 0:43:05- After hearing of its benefits, I got - behind the potter's wheel myself.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09- # My darling
0:43:10 > 0:43:15- # I've hungered for your touch
0:43:15 > 0:43:18- # A long... #
0:43:18 > 0:43:22- RECORD SCRATCHES
0:43:22 > 0:43:26- Oh, I don't think pottery making - is for me!
0:43:29 > 0:43:33- Mari fancied herself as - a bit of a Demi Moore there.
0:43:34 > 0:43:37- Here's an interesting fact for you.
0:43:38 > 0:43:50- But did you know that it's 27 years - since the film, Ghost was released?
