-I sounded like a child on the night!

-I sounded like a child on the night!

-What does winning this award

-mean for you?

-Winning an Olivier Award

-is a thing of dreams.

-I can't believe I've won it.

-It's one of the biggest awards

-in the industry.

-I won the award for Showboat.

-It was an incredible.

-It was only meant to run

-for four weeks in Sheffield...

-..but it ran for an extra week...

-..and we took it to London.

-You found out on Twitter

-about the nomination.

-I only found out about the

-nomination...

-..when I saw it on Twitter.

-I found a dress for the night.

-It was an odd, emotional

-and fantastic night.

-It was very busy

-at the Royal Albert Hall.

-It was very exciting

-on the red carpet.

-I didn't know where to go.

-It was very exciting.

-There was so many famous faces

-at the event.

-This award was at the end

-of the night.

-I was so nervous.

-I was sweating too!

-It was very special to have

-my parents there.

-I could see it through their eyes.

-How did they respond?

-They looked quite cool.

-I think it was shock.

-They were both excited.

-I was proud to thank them

-from the stage.

-They have driven me to my lessons.

-It was great to have them there.

-A lot of other Welsh names

-have inspired you.

-It was important for me

-to thank everyone...

-..who had helped me in Wales.

-The Welsh take the arts

-very seriously.

-Glenys Thomas was one of my

-first teachers.

-I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for

-her.

-A Welshman is also making a name

-for himself in London.

-Richard Holt

-is a young chef from Anglesey.

-He's recently started as a head

-pastry chef for Marcus Wareing...

-..at The Berkeley

-and The Gilbert Scott.

-Elin ventured to Anglesey

-to meet Richard.

-The Marram Grass Cafe is on the road

-from Dwyran to Newborough...

-..near Llanddwyn Beach on Anglesey.

-Richard Holt is from the island and

-this is where he started as a chef.

-I grew up around food.

-Mam was a school cook

-and Dad owned an ice cream company.

-In 2013, I approached

-The Marram Grass and asked for work.

-Ellis took a risk

-and employed me as a trainee.

-He guided me carefully and I

-started to enjoy what he was doing.

-He encouraged me to move on

-and I really respected that.

-I left here and joined Hefin Roberts

-at the Loft restaurant in Beaumaris.

-I went to Steve Stevens at Sosban

-and he is the best chef I've met.

-The next step was to go to London.

-Within a week, I was in a restaurant

-owned by Marcus Wareing.

-I became head pastry chef for Marcus

-and for The Gilbert Scott.

-Marcus has two Michelin stars...

-..and The Gilbert Scott is the

-most British restaurant in London.

-I'd never believe you if you'd told

-me I'd be head pastry chef for them!

-Before showing your skills,

-you've made me something else.

-Yes, this is a bara brith souffle.

-Yes, this is a bara brith souffle.

-

-I've never heard of such a thing.

-It's blended with Toffoc so

-the ice cream should melt into it.

-Oh, my life, that's amazing.

-Richard had more for us after

-that delicious bara brith souffle.

-Today, I'm going to make strawberry

-cheesecake with lemon curd.

-It also contains mint

-and white chocolate.

-I'll make a second one

-with peach and blackcurrant.

-You can carry on whilst I watch you

-because I'm no use to you.

-I'm going to pour this over the cake

-so it's very messy but fun!

-The Marram Grass is owned by

-two brothers called Liam and Ellis.

-Helping young chefs

-is part of their vision.

-We started The Marram Grass in 2009

-as an all-day breakfast place.

-We have a lovely venue,

-training school and butchery shop.

-It is the year for The Marram Grass

-as Rich has come through the system.

-He's representing us in London

-and working for Marcus Wareing.

-I'm proud and that makes it real

-and it's why we're here.

-Ta-da!

-Ta-da!

-

-Wow, that's amazing.

-The next one is peach

-and blackcurrant.

-It's called pate de fruit in French.

-I've made birthday and wedding cakes

-for many years.

-I'm also an artist...

-..so I think that's where Richard

-gets his inspiration for his cakes.

-He loves cooking and we're proud

-of him and his new job in London.

-Those look incredible

-and absolutely perfect.

-Thank you.

-Can I eat them?

-Can I eat them?

-

-No!

-Are you serious?

-Are you serious?

-

-Have you seen them?

-Good luck to Richard.

-Earlier, a group of classic cars

-left Narberth for Ireland...

-..to raise funds

-for local charities.

-This annual journey

-has become famous.

-Our cameras were there to bid them

-farewell and to wish them luck.

-We're travelling through Narberth

-and to Fishguard...

-..to catch the ferry to Rosslare...

-..before going to Dungarvan tonight

-which is our base for the weekend.

-We're raising money

-for two local charities...

-..namely the Dean Mason

-Memorial Fund and Meningitis Now.

-In our last three trips, we've

-raised 15,000 for both charities.

-After this trip, we hope

-to have crossed the 20,000 mark.

-that range from the Triumph TR4...

-..a Ford Popular, Land Rovers

-and a little bit of everything.

-This is our third trip.

-Last year, we had a Daimler

-but have a Smart Roadster this year.

-Our son is on his first trip

-with us in his MG GT.

-Our daughter is his passenger but

-we're all out for a weekend of fun.

-I've owned the Anglia for a year

-but couldn't come in 2016.

-It's all about raising money

-for a good cause.

-It's my second year on the tour

-to Ireland with Dat-cu.

-I've thoroughly enjoy raising money

-for a good cause.

-It's my first year of doing this

-with Dat-cu and I'm very excited.

-I think it'll be a good experience.

-It's a lot of organizing

-but it's worth it for the fun...

-..and we raise money

-for two great charities.

-CAR TOOTS

-Good luck to them

-on their journey to Ireland.

-After the break, we follow a group

-on a 500-mile trek of Wales...

-..to raise funds for Kidney Wales.

-Daf Wyn is waiting for us

-at Rhosygilwen...

-..as they prepare for a concert

-that starts in 15 minutes.

-I'm at Rhosygilwen

-for the special Calon Lan concert.

-It raises money for a local charity.

-Join me after the break to hear all

-about the concert and Rhosygilwen.

-See you in a few minutes.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-I'm also delighted to welcome

-the Llangennech Merched y Wawr.

-They're enjoying a tour

-of our studios in Llanelli.

-I hope you're enjoying yourselves,

-ladies.

-Next, let's join Daf Wyn

-at Rhosygilwen in Pembrokeshire.

-Good evening, Daf.

-Good evening to you all.

-Welcome to Rhosygilwen.

-Tonight, the site is preparing

-for the Calon Lan concert.

-This is a fund-raising event

-for a local charity.

-Let's hear more about

-the history of the estate.

-It's a popular local

-and national location...

-..but Rhosygilwen

-isn't a place you happen upon.

-Hidden in farms

-and lush, green forests...

-..this estate

-has a lot to boast about.

-There's 55 acres of land, Victorian

-gardens and glorious scenery.

-There's a record of the Rhosygilwen

-Estate in the 17th century.

-Many local, wealthy families

-have owned the site.

-In the 18th century...

-..the owners built a gothic-style

-mansion on the estate.

-The house is now a Grade II listed,

-luxury hotel.

-The latest addition is a solar park

-with 10,000 panels...

-..built within six acres of land.

-This is the first solar park

-of its kind in Wales...

-..and it partly powers the

-sustainable house next door.

-Opposite this modern house

-is a very modern concert hall.

-The Oak Hall was built as a centre

-for musicians and performers.

-Over the years, it has welcomed big

-names from Wales and further afield.

-But along with welcoming musicians,

-it is also a stage for locals.

-I've even had the experience

-of performing here.

-Many have performed at this quiet

-spot, hidden in North Pembrokeshire.

-It's a wonderful place.

-I'm joined by some of the people

-involved in tonight's concert.

-Ilar Rees-Davies is responsible

-for organizing the event.

-This concert is for Age Cymru.

-We hear the story of two people

-who fall in love...

-..but then have to learn to live

-with each other.

-Where did the name come from?

-The name of the show comes from a

-line from the song Calon Lan.

-Robert Lewis is one of the tenors

-performing tonight.

-Ilar is great at organizing.

-There's arias from operas.

-There's lieder, Welsh songs

-and a whole lot more.

-We're also joined by Leila Evans

-is from Age Cymru, Ceredigion.

-It's great that the concert

-is raising money...

-..for our charity.

-About 50 could help

-an elderly person...

-..to live out of poverty.

-I'm excited about tonight.

-Back to you in the studio.

-Thank you, Daf.

-Kidney Wales is a prominent charity

-and it marks its 50th anniversary.

-To mark this milestone,

-a group has started a trek of Wales.

-Our cameras went to visit the group

-and to wish them the best of luck.

-We're trekking around the country

-for Kidney Wales.

-We'll be calling at all 19

-dialysis centres in Wales.

-This is a big challenge but

-we're excited to meet new people.

-We'd like to see people come out

-to support us and help raise money.

-# A pure heart full of goodness

-# Is fairer than the pretty lily #

-The aim is to establish a new centre

-for patients in Wales.

-This centre will be the first

-dialysis centre offering respite...

-..in West Wales.

-We'll be trekking 20 miles per day

-for the next month.

-Today, we're going to enjoy

-the sound of the choir.

-Please remember to donate

-to the charity.

-# Amen #

-The team

-is taking a rest tomorrow...

-..before continuing from Llannon

-to St Clears on Saturday.

-The time has come to enjoy a song

-by the 2017 Olivier award winner.

-This award is one of the biggest

-of its kind in the theatre industry.

-It's the actress and singer

-from Rhyl, Rebecca Trehearn.

-This is Bill

-from the show, Showboat.

-She's joined by Jeff Howard

-on the piano.

-# I used to dream

-that I would discover

-# The perfect lover someday

-# I knew I'd recognize him if ever

-# He came 'round my way

-# I always used to fancy then

-# He'd be one of the god-like

-kind of men

-# With a giant brain and

-a noble head

-# Like the heroes bold

-in the books I've read

-# But along came Bill

-# Who's not the type at all

-# You'd meet him on the street

-and never notice him

-# His form and face

-# His manly grace

-# Are not the kind that you

-would find in a statue

-# And I can't explain

-# It's surely not his brain

-# That makes me thrill

-# I love him

-because he's wonderful

-# Because he's just my Bill

-# He can't play golf or tennis

-or polo

-# Or sing a solo or row

-# He isn't half as handsome

-# As dozens of men that I know

-# He isn't tall or straight

-or slim

-# And he dresses far worse

-than Ted or Jim

-# And I can't explain

-why he should be

-# Just the one,

-one man in the world for me

-# He's just my Bill an ordinary man

-# He hasn't got a thing

-that I can brag about

-# And yet to be upon his knee

-# So comfy and roomy

-seems natural to me

-# Oh, I can't explain

-# It's surely not his brain

-# That makes me thrill

-# I love him because he's,

-I don't know

-# Because he's just my Bill #

-APPLAUSE

-Thank you, Rebecca.

-That was incredible.

-Come back and sit with me.

-You've won the Olivier Award.

-How many times have you performed

-that song?

-I don't know how many times I've

-sung that song.

-It's a bit odd to sing it in Welsh.

-What's next for you, Rebecca?

-It's a bit early...

-..to say if the Olivier Award has

-helped my career.

-What advice would you offer

-for those wanting to perform?

-I'd tell everyone to take every

-opportunity to perform.

-Go to the Eisteddfod.

-Join am dram groups.

-It could be possible.

-My award is on my fireplace at the

-moment.

-That's all we have time for

-this evening.

-Thanks to Rhosygilwen for the warm

-welcome and good luck tonight.

-Goodnight to you all from Rebecca,

-the Merched y Wawr, the team and me.
