-It's the opening night of the

-Cardiff will host the World Half

-Marathon in less than three weeks.

-The historic event is a chance for

-everyone to run alongside Mo Farah.

-The race's Team GB selection

-was announced earlier today.

-Our cameras were present.

-Today, the Team GB selection

-was announced...

-..for the World Half Marathon

-in Cardiff in three weeks time.

-I'm fortunate

-to be part of the team.

-Mo Farah is here with some of the

-best Kenyan and worldwide runners.

-It's set to be a fantastic race

-and a memorable event for Cardiff.

-It's going to be incredible

-to have so many people taking part.

-We're in an elite race but the rest

-will run it for fun and enjoyment.

-It's a chance to mingle with them,

-chill out and talk to them...

-..and hopefully cheer for them.

-Sixty-one nations

-have put in their entry form.

-We'll have some of the world's best

-male and female separated races.

-But behind that, there'll be 15,000

-mass participants all being part...

-..of the IAAF Cardiff University

-World Half Marathon Championships.

-It's the only momentous championship

-I'll have a chance to run in Wales.

-I'm excited about it

-and I will treasure it.

-Hopefully,

-it'll inspire me to run fast.

-I've represented Britain in

-mountain, track and cross-country.

-This is the first time for me to

-represent Britain in road running.

-It's a moment I'll always treasure.

-The profile and the exposure that

-the city will get in its landmarks.

-We've taken in every feature of

-the city that you can in 13 miles.

-We hope the weather

-does its little bit on the day.

-Everyone will support each other

-and will run superbly on the day.

-Who knows what could happen

-and maybe I'll win a medal.

-Good luck to Dewi

-and all the runners!

-It's International Women's Day.

-We've met a young lady who is making

-an impression on her contemporaries.

-Photographer, Gwenno Davies

-has ventured into a field...

-..that normally attracts males.

-But this hasn't held her back

-as she now works for Riley Sports.

-Daf hears about her success.

-Gwenno Davies is 20 years old

-and from Llandybie near Llandeilo.

-She's busy working

-as a photographer...

-..and her work can be seen

-in newspapers and magazines.

-Despite her hectic schedule...

-..I've managed to chat to her about

-her career and fantastic lens work.

-My interest started at GCSE level

-then I studied A Level Photography.

-I was out-and-about taking photos

-and I was never at school.

-I know it's something awful to say

-but I was always out taking photos.

-I'm delighted that

-it paid off in the end.

-I picked up the interest from Dad.

-He did studio work

-and took school photographs.

-I'd join him when I had a gap

-in my school timetable.

-I found the studio work boring

-and wanted to be outside.

-I liked seeing the dawn and dusk

-and I enjoyed surfing and the beach.

-I'd wake at 4.00am and my mother

-would ask me where I was going.

-I'd receive a phone call at 6.00am

-to say the surfing was brilliant...

-..and they were right.

-Her current work takes her further

-than the tranquil of a daybreak...

-..and the golden sands

-surrounding Carmarthenshire.

-Yes, it's completely different.

-The place is lot more noisy,

-stressful and it's hard work.

-Before you utter another word,

-let's pay your workplace a visit.

-My daily job involves sports from

-rugby, football, netball and more.

-It's catapulted from a relaxed beach

-to a stressful environment.

-The crowds are boisterous,

-there's pressure from the game...

-..and you have to send

-the photos off quickly.

-I've gone from one extreme

-to another.

-The year before last I was at the

-Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series.

-I enjoyed it so much

-and it was an extreme sport.

-I'd love to try snowboarding

-or some sort of extreme sport.

-My dream is to work at the Olympics

-or the Rugby World Cup.

-I wonder if she can show me

-a few camera tricks.

-That one was out of focus but it's

-fine because the frame is in focus.

-I've taken a lot of snapshots

-but I've found it quite stressful.

-Everyone thinks it's an easy job

-but it's much harder than you think.

-You're waiting for that moment.

-Yes, and these photos are great but

-we'll work on the ones out of focus.

-A busy period lies ahead of you

-so are you looking forward to it?

-Yes, I absolutely love this work

-and I'm excited but always nervous.

-They were some

-great sport photographs.

-Here are some great photos of the

-Aurora Borealis in Nant yr Arian.

-Our photographer, Keith Morris

-captured this striking display.

-Here's a reminder of

-our latest photography competition.

-It's time to receive

-your spring snapshots.

-Lambs are busy prancing

-and daffodils are in bloom.

-Why not step outside with

-your camera or mobile phone?

-The competition

-officially starts on 18 March.

-Send us your photos via email,

-Facebook, Twitter or Intagram.

-The actor, Tom Mumford

-has joined me tonight.

-Welcome to the programme.

-Tom stars in a new romantic comedy

-called Spoilers.

-We're able to watch Spoilers

-on BBC Two Wales tomorrow night.

-The film was screened

-at the Iris Prize Festival.

-Spoilers is the seventh short film

-produced by the Iris Prize.

-The festival is held in Cardiff

-every year.

-Let's see a clip of you in Spoilers.

-AIRPLANE TANNOY

-Sorry, I think

-you've got the wrong...

-Sorry. This is definitely mine.

-I know it;s mine because of

-the sticker. Glastonbury 99.

-I was at Glastonbury 99.

-Who did you see on the Friday?

-Who did you see on the Friday?

-

-Tori.

-Amos to that. Saturday?

-Sunday?

-Sunday?

-

-KORN.

-their future.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back to Heno

-live from Aberystwyth Arts Centre.

-A crowd is gathering for the

-opening night of Cysgu'n Brysur.

-The production is a joint venture

-between Arad Goch theatre company...

-..the Wales Millennium Centre

-and Aberystwyth Arts Centre.

-# This isn't where I want to be #

-The music was written by the

-young band from Carmarthen, Bromas.

-I've taken the music from their CD

-and adapted them for the stage...

-..for a cast of eleven young people.

-# It doesn't work like that #

-We performed a version of the show

-with Urdd members, two years ago.

-It's been several years

-in the making.

-# Don't fall into the hole #

-I've never performed

-in a professional musical before.

-There's a big cast of eleven.

-It gives us a new challenge

-of reacting to every character.

-I only heard you going on and on

-about playing football in America.

-Yes, so...?

-Yes, so...?

-

-Go on, what about a jelly wrestle?

-Donna is a selective mute.

-Despite being quiet,

-she has a strong character.

-She proves that you don't need

-to speak to convey your point.

-Shuffle, shuffle,

-twist, twist, twerk!

-Playing Jesse has been a challenge.

-He's created a persona

-and he's battling to keep face.

-He's gay and plays up

-to this stereotypical persona.

-However, my challenge is to portray

-the real Jesse behind the act.

-We've been rehearsing

-for three weeks.

-Time has flown by and the

-cast members have become very close.

-We've thrown ourselves into

-the choreography and singing.

-It's been great to look back

-at our own teenage years.

-# Change your mind #

-There are several different

-singing styles and techniques.

-Every song is an anthem

-and they're full of fun.

-We have solos, duets

-and chorus singing...

-..so there's something for everyone.

-We challenge the audience

-with the song lyrics.

-We enjoy rocking to the songs

-and we can let ourselves go.

-It's been a fantastic experience...

-..and I hope the next two weeks

-of rehearsals will be even better.

-It will be fantastic to take

-this show on a tour of Wales.

-I've never been

-to the Pavilion Theatre in Rhyl.

-I've been told that it's enormous

-so I look forward to the challenge.

-I feel very proud and look forward

-to touring with this production.

-# Just give me an answer #

-That was a taster of the show.

-Jeremy Turner is the director.

-The performance is very energetic.

-A musical is something that

-we consider to be from England.

-This is a show about young people

-from Wales.

-The show is based on the music from

-the band, Bromas.

-I think young people have their own

-morals.

-They are different to us though.

-Cysgu'n Brysur is the title of a

-Bromas song.

-Bethan Marlow is the author.

-The script is considered to be

-pioneering.

-We had to study the songs of Bromas.

-We chatted to a lot of young people

-around Wales.

-We wanted to hear their opinions.

-There were a lot of new

-and old themes.

-We shouldn't take these themes

-lightly.

-Gareth Roberts works at

-Aberystwyth Arts Centre.

-The show goes to Carmarthen,

-Rhyl and Cardiff.

-Go and see it!

-Actor, Tom Mumford

-joins me on the sofa.

-The young people in the show

-are actors of the future.

-I can see a lot of myself in them.

-I performed Macbeth in

-the Pontardawe Arts Centre.

-You are from Anglesey originally.

-I was born in Gwalchmai

-and then moved to London.

-I recall reporting from Dolgellau

-before Christmas...

-..at the book launch of

-I Botany Bay by Bethan Gwanas.

-Today, the novel was introduced

-to an audience in New York.

-Bethesda actress, Gwenfair Vaughan

-lives in New York...

-..and is part of an event

-where 25 female artists...

-..present work by women

-from their native country...

-..in honour

-of International Women's Day.

-I'm delighted that an excerpt from

-my latest novel, I Botany Bay...

-..will be read in New York as part

-of International Women's Day.

-Bethesda actress,

-Gwenfair Vaughan...

-..is the voice of Mrs Tiggywinkle

-in the Peter Rabbit series.

-She asked to read an excerpt

-from this novel in New York.

-She's one of 25 women

-from different countries...

-..who'll be reading a section of a

-book that represents their country.

-She wanted to read from my book,

-Amdani, about women rugby players.

-But I told her that

-this book was more suitable.

-It's a novel about a real person,

-18-year-old, Ann Lewis...

-..who lived and worked in Dolgellau,

-but she stole from a shop.

-She was extradited to Botany Bay

-for seven years.

-I didn't have a lot of information

-so the rest is fictional-based.

-In 1833, fairs were held here

-and slaves would wait to be paid.

-I discovered that women would walk

-around and knit during those days.

-Women were extradited to Australia

-and were treated cruelly.

-I thought this was the ideal book

-to honour International Women's Day.

-The actor, Tom Mumford

-has been my studio guest tonight.

-The Iris Prize Festival

-is a leading film festival in Wales.

-The festival gives a voice

-for gay and lesbian filmmakers.

-Spoilers is shown on BBC Two Wales

-tomorrow night at 11.20pm.

-I will feel nervous and excited

-about the showing tomorrow night.

-The film was screened last week at

-Cineworld in Cardiff.

-Hopefully,

-the film becomes a success.

-We return at the same time

-tomorrow night.

-It's Wednesday, so you can win

-up to 1,000 in Fancy A Fortune?

-Hello?

-Hello?

-

-Hello, there!

-A man won 1,000 last week!

-Goodness me!

-Imagine winning 1,000.

-Congratulations you've won 1,000.

-# Fancy A Fortune? #

-You've won 1,000.

-I've won 1,000 and I'm so excited.
