-It's great to have your company.

-Before we return to Gerallt

-we've got all this for you.

-Daf Wyn is at Radio 1 in London.

-He meets the Aberystwyth broadcaster

-who is currently Head of Programmes.

-We continue our search for the new

-We hear of a dog that saved the life

-of its owner who had a heart attack.

-The DJ, Bethan Elfyn

-joins me on the sofa tonight.

-Welcome to Heno.

-Bethan is promoting the exciting

-Horizons / Gorwelion project...

-..which is a launch pad for new

-artists and bands in Wales.

-I look forward to our chat shortly.

-Without further ado, we return to

-Tir Prince for the Wales Rally GB.

-Good evening, Gerallt.

-Good evening, Sian.

-Welcome to Tir Prince Raceway

-in Towyn.

-It's the start of

-the Wales Rally GB.

-It's an exciting night here.

-Hana Medi and Howard Davies

-are here.

-Earlier today, I joined two

-Ralio presenters in Deeside.

-I also spoke to the driver,

-Elfyn Evans.

-The Deeside Industrial Park

-is incredibly busy.

-Every big name

-from the rallying world is here...

-..and I'm joined by two of them,

-Emyr Penlan and Llinos Lee!

-Llinos, you're on a break from Heno

-to attend your first ever rally.

-Yes, I've been given a break

-to accompany Emyr for the week.

-This is my first World Rally...

-There will be a feast of rallying

-and it will all be shown on Ralio+.

-You've set up a studio nearby.

-Yes, we've been here since yesterday

-building a studio.

-Our nightly programmes

-will start tonight on S4C.

-This is the world's best rally

-with 21 stages run over four days.

-The 300km of stages are challenging

-and competitive so it will be great.

-Elfyn Evans has a good chance

-of winning the rally.

-How does this rally compare

-to others all around the world?

-It's one of the world's

-best rallies.

-Finland is said to be

-the spiritual home of rallying...

-..but I think it's here in Wales.

-Wales has the best stages and the

-rain makes it even more interesting.

-The drivers all agree that the roads

-are fantastic to drive.

-We wish Elfyn Evans all the best

-but what does he need to win?

-Elfyn needs wind and rain

-that will suit his soft DMACK tyres.

-However, I'm not sure they'll last

-if the weather is dry.

-If it rains, Elfyn could win.

-There's been lots of build up

-and a long recce.

-I'm looking forward

-to the start of the rally tonight.

-You were so close in South America

-so do you hope to win in Wales?

-It would be great to win but

-I'm not thinking about it too much.

-It's a long and difficult rally

-where anything could happen.

-We'll try our best

-and see how it goes.

-Emyr Penlan tells me

-that you hope for a downpour.

-Yes, our soft tyres perform better

-in slippery conditions.

-I don't want it to dry out after the

-wet conditions earlier in the week.

-Good luck and I hope it goes well.

-Make Wales proud!

-Make Wales proud!

-

-Thank you.

-Good luck to Elfyn.

-Llinos, this weekend doesn't

-seem like work for Emyr Penlan.

-I can sense that you're starting

-to feel the same.

-The atmosphere is fantastic and

-I've met so many different people.

-It's just like Christmas for Emyr

-and I'm starting to get excited too.

-Emyr, you get to combine

-business and pleasure.

-My biggest pleasure will be seeing

-Elfyn picking up that trophy!

-Don't jinx it, Emyr!

-Don't jinx it, Emyr!

-

-Let's hope it happens.

-Enjoy your weekend

-and thanks for the chat.

-Thank you, Gerallt.

-Things have hot up here.

-Hana Medi is in her seventh heaven!

-What time do the programmes start?

-The programme

-is on tonight at 10.00pm.

-There's a programme

-every night until Monday.

-Their times are on our website.

-to the cars.

-After months of preparations,

-the cars are warming up.

-The tyres and transmissions

-are getting warmed up.

-Elfyn is doing well going

-into the rally.

-We have a team of around 30

-working on our Ralio programmes.

-My studio guest tonight

-is the DJ, Bethan Elfyn.

-Bethan is here to tell us about

-the Horizon / Gorwelion project...

-..that helps new artists

-and bands in Wales.

-Do you know anything about cars?

-I don't know anything about cars!

-However, it's great to see

-a Welshman doing well.

-Tell us more about

-Horizons / Gorwelion.

-The project has been going

-for several years.

-We host special events

-and host radio programmes.

-There's also a fund.

-It's been running since 2014.

-It's a financial

-and practical boost for the artists.

-It helps them buy new equipment

-and go on tour.

-Several Welsh artists

-have benefitted from it.

-I hope many more will apply

-for the grant too.

-Tell us more about the bands

-and artists who have benefitted.

-The fund has helped many acts

-like the Llareggub Brass Band.

-There are also bands

-like Croma and Cadno.

-Mellt and Ysgol Sul

-have also been helped by the fund.

-When they apply to the fund,

-they have to think of a plan.

-They must know how

-they will spend the fund money.

-They are competing

-against many bands.

-Yes, hundreds of bands will apply.

-Some will be disappointed

-when they aren't chosen.

-The judging panel will get

-to hear these new bands.

-Even that can be a boost

-for the new acts.

-It's great to see new artists

-breaking through and doing well.

-DJ Endaf from Caernarfon

-asked for a special microphone.

-Since he received it,

-he's developed a new style of music.

-It's great to see him doing well.

-Candelas and Swnamis

-are doing well...

-..but it's great to see

-smaller acts too.

-When is the closing date?

-The closing date

-is coming up very soon.

-Don't leave it

-until the last minute.

-We'll chat again later.

-After the break,

-we meet a special dog...

-..that saved the life of its owner

-following a heart attack.

-Daf Wyn also meets the new

-Head of Programmes at Radio 1.

-It's the Aberystwyth broadcaster,

-Aled Haydn Jones.

-See you in a couple of minutes.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-November is the month of legends

-here on S4C.

-There's a variety of programmes

-celebrating new and old tales.

-Here on Heno, we have a competition

-to search for a heroic Welsh dog...

-..the modern-day Gelert.

-However, your dog

-doesn't have to be a life saver.

-Your canine hero could just offer

-everyday help and comfort...

-..or be your best friend,

-like Bonnie and her owner, Sarah.

-We believe our dog is a hero.

-Bonnie is eleven.

-When I was 30, she saved my life

-when I had a cardiac arrest at home.

-I was born with Transposition

-of the Great Arteries in 1980.

-My lips and entire body were blue

-and heart was the wrong way around.

-At eight months,

-I had surgery in Liverpool.

-Bonnie is a RSPCA rescue dog.

-I believe that dogs choose the owner

-and she chose us.

-Bonnie has changed our lives.

-I had turned 30 and

-was slumbering on the sofa...

-..when Bonnie came to the rescue.

-I'd had a cardiac arrest and I was

-making a noise which alerted Bonnie.

-She woke my husband, Aled and

-showed him that something was wrong.

-What Bonnie and Aled

-did was amazing.

-Aled was quick to respond, he called

-an ambulance and performed the CPR.

-I believe everyone without a dog

-should know how to perform CPR.

-Bonnie is my little CPR machine

-by getting Aled to wake.

-She's amazing and

-I have a tattoo of her paw.

-Bonnie is my hero and without her,

-I wouldn't be here.

-She knows how we feel and

-she has the look at me attitude.

-Bonnie knows she's special

-and is my hero.

-Bonnie and Sarah

-have an amazing story.

-I'm sure Wales has more similar

-tales of dogs and their owners.

-We want to hear about them

-and find the new Gelert in November.

-Contact us in the usual way.

-You can email [email protected]

-Post a letter to Heno, Tinopolis,

-Park Street, Llanelli, SA15 3YE.

-We look forward to hearing from you.

-Millions of listeners in Britain

-tune in to BBC Radio 1 every day.

-The station is 50 years old

-this year...

-..and since June, a Welshman has

-worked as the Head of Programmes.

-It's Aled Haydn Jones

-from Aberystwyth.

-Daf enjoyed a chat with him

-at the BBC headquarters in London.

-Welcome to the BBC headquarters

-at the heart of London.

-Perhaps this venue looks familiar

-as this is where...

-..Alex Jones presents The One Show

-and Huw Edwards presents the News.

-On the eighth floor,

-there's another Welshman...

-..who's been appointed

-a very special job.

-Aled, thanks for your welcome

-here in London.

-It's no problem.

-I must congratulate you

-on your new role within Radio 1.

-Thank you.

-You're the Head of Programmes.

-You're the Head of Programmes.

-

-How did that happen?!

-What does the Head of Programmes do?

-What does the Head of Programmes do?

-

-I make all the big decisions.

-Huw Stephens works with Radio 1

-so he works for me.

-He recently mentioned on Heno...

-..that I'm the one who decides

-on his salary or new contract.

-He's being very nice to me now.

-You're listening to Radio 1,

-good morning!

-Good morning!

-It was great when I could enter

-a studio and create a programme...

-..with the likes of Chris Moyles.

-However, I'm the one

-who sits in the office...

-..listening to everyone else

-and making sure they sound good.

-You've moved from production to

-the management side of the station.

-I've become one of them.

-You've been appointed the role after

-a special birthday for the station.

-Yes, we celebrated 50 years

-two weeks ago and it was fantastic.

-What have you got planned

-and do you have any new plans?

-There's a new schedule

-which is a big thing for me.

-Charlie Sloth from 1Xtra will

-start a new programme on Radio 1.

-It's called Life Hacks which

-replaces my old Sunday Surgery show.

-It will be aired on Sunday afternoon

-to appeal to a younger audience.

-These are my first changes but there

-will be more in the New Year.

-Llond Ceg - more talking!

-We're here to discuss the topics

-that are important to you.

-Llond Ceg -

-tell us about the programme.

-The opportunity to join the show

-came when I presented the Surgery.

-The show was aimed

-at those aged 15 and over.

-Instead of questioning young people

-about their problems...

-..we presented them with problems

-and they offered solutions.

-We've done three series and

-covered lots of adolescent issues.

-Llond Ceg is a fantastic programme

-for young people.

-You've received two

-BAFTA nominations for the show.

-We felt very important as we

-sat with all the famous nominees!

-I know you present Llond Ceg...

-..but do you remember

-the first time you presented on S4C?

-Swansea has been in the news

-during the past week.

-There's been coverage of the high

-number of car thefts and joy riding.

-Do you remember that?

-Do you remember that?

-

-Yes, I can remember it clearly.

-Are they fond memories?

-Are they fond memories?

-

-It was fantastic.

-Heno was very kind to me and that's

-where I got my presenting debut.

-I was given work experience

-with Heno before going to Radio 1.

-Without Heno,

-I wouldn't be where I am today.

-Can I have a copy of that clip?

-Can I have a copy of that clip?

-

-Yes, of course.

-My Mam and Dad would love a copy!

-Thanks for the chat

-and good luck in your new job.

-Thank you.

-Congratulations to Aled.

-He's done very well.

-It was great to see that clip.

-Bethan was also a DJ on Radio 1.

-I was there for eleven years.

-I now work with Radio Wales.

-There's a picture of you

-with the other female presenters.

-Some of my heroes

-are in the picture.

-I still work with BBC Introducing.

-Several stations feed into the main

-stations like Radio 1.

-Talking Books Wales

-has a new campaign...

-..to raise the profile of the

-service among school children.

-During this week, they're appealing

-to primary and secondary schools...

-..to use their imagination for ideas

-to help raise funds for the service.

-Here's the charity's chairman,

-Sulwyn Thomas...

-..and Lisa Lewis Jones who is

-a regular user of the service.

-Talking Books Wales is a service

-for the blind, visually impaired...

-..and those who struggle

-to read printed material.

-It was started in 1979

-as a cassette service.

-Since 1979, it's developed and we've

-recorded over 2,000 audio books...

-..and they're all free

-to those who can't read print.

-I've been using Talking Books Wales

-for many years.

-They play a key role in my life...

-..as they allow me

-to enjoy Welsh literature.

-The provision has improved and they

-keep up to date with technology.

-I can now download books

-to my phone or iPad.

-In the past, I was confined

-to using a cassette or CD player.

-Since we started Talking Books,

-we've hosted an annual event.

-This year, we're targeting schools

-as there are 1,500 schools in Wales.

-We'd like every school to raise 50.

-I'm a teacher at Ysgol Gynradd

-Gymraeg Pontardawe.

-The headteacher, Mr Emmanuel, got

-an email from Talking Books Wales.

-He decided to take up

-their challenge.

-Yesterday, we had a sponsored

-reading session in every class.

-I've visited two schools

-over the past two weeks.

-It's been wonderful

-to hear from the children.

-Some have said that their relatives

-would benefit from our service.

-Therefore, we're raising money

-and awareness at the same time.

-The campaign runs until Christmas.

-My studio guest tonight

-has been the DJ, Bethan Elfyn.

-Bethan has discussed the

-Horizons / Gorwelion project.

-The entry form is on the website.

-The closing date is on Monday night.

-That's all from us tonight.

-Prynhawn Da

-returns tomorrow at 2.00pm.

-You can win 100 or more

-in the Mwy Neu Lai quiz.

-Nerys Howell prepares

-Halloween treats for adults.

-Tomorrow night, Heno marks a new era

-for Tafarn Sinc in Pembrokeshire.

-We hear more about the

-Festival of Light in Abergavenny.

-The journalist, Steffan Powell...

-..the singer, Jodie Bird and author,

-Eiry Miles, join Rhodri and myself.

-Thanks for your company.

-It's goodnight from everyone

-here in Llanelli.
