-It's the shortest day of the year...

-..and with only two sleeps until

-Christmas Eve, I am very excited!

-Hopefully, you are ready to relax

-with me for the next half an hour.

-I have not one, but two guests

-joining me this evening!

-Iestyn Garlick is here to talk about

-a special programme over Christmas.

-And the singer, Caryl Parry Jones

-is here for a chat and a song.

-A warm welcome to you both.

-And I'll be phoning one of you in

-our Christmas Cracker Competition.

-If you entered last night,

-I could be calling you.

-Stay by your phones and remember

-to say "Christmas Cracker"!

-We also visit the children's ward

-at Glangwili Hospital.

-Players from the Scarlets rugby team

-have been cheering up the kids.

-But first, there's time to have a

-chat with my guest, Iestyn Garlick.

-You have been busy making

-a very personal documentary.

-Let's take a look at a quick clip.

-Here's a clip from Stori Mabwysiadu.

-I've always known that I'm adopted.

-Hand on my heart, I've got no idea

-what I'm going to do...

-..or how I'm going to react.

-It's not something that

-is just happening today.

-It is for ever.

-Oh, God.

-It looks like an emotional journey

-for you, Iestyn.

-You knew you were adopted.

-I always knew that I was adopted.

-would tell me the story.

-They went to Nazareth House

-in Swansea to choose me.

-My father believed

-that I chose them.

-All of the children were sleeping,

-apart from me.

-Why decide now to find out?

-It started 25 years ago.

-When I discovered that my son

-wasn't like other children...

-..I didn't have any information

-about my past.

-I discovered the name of my mother.

-My name was Kevin Donelly.

-It was given to me by my mother Mary

-Rose Donelly.

-We don't want any spoilers.

-I come from an Irish lineage.

-There are certain ways

-you approach this.

-The programme

-was commissioned in 2004.

-We continued to film last week.

-There were times when I thought

-we wouldn't get anywhere...

-..but all of a sudden all of the

-information would come from nowhere.

-What have you learnt?

-It has affected me.

-It hasn't changed anything.

-Stori Mabwysiadu airs on S4C

-at 8.25 on Tuesday, 27 December.

-Thank you, Iestyn.

-There's a special edition of Heno

-at 10.30pm on New Year's Eve.

-It's a chance to take a look back

-at some highlights from 2016.

-Here's a little taster for you.

-Yes, it's almost 2017.

-The time has arrived.

-It's time to call a lucky viewer in

-our Christmas Cracker Competition.

-Caryl has the honour

-of pulling the cracker tonight.

-If you entered

-our Christmas Cracker Competition...

-..make sure

-that you're close to your phone.

-Mike Phillips asked us

-last night's question.

-What do you hang at the end

-of your bed on Christmas Eve?

-1) a t-shirt, 2) a skirt,

-or 3) a stocking?

-Merry Christmas!

-The answer, of course,

-was a stocking.

-The code is 01974.

-I can tell you that the number

-is from the Llanon area.

-It's ringing.

-It's still ringing.

-Hello, it's Elin

-from S4C's Heno.

-Do you have something to tell me?

-are yet to be pulled.

-You have written a very special film

-for this Christmas.

-I wrote the film with Non Parry.

-..that we don't consider.

-I'm going to be singing

-Drama'r Preseb tonight.

-It's about the importance of

-spending quality time with our kids.

-All of my children have grown up...

-..but I miss their Nativity's.

-Most of us are fortunate enough

-to be able to enjoy Christmas.

-However, some will be in hospital

-and lots of them will be children.

-Over the past few weeks,

-our regional rugby sides...

-..have visited local hospitals to

-put a smile on the children's faces.

-We went to Glangwili Hospital

-with members of the Scarlets side.

-A group of us from the Scarlets have

-been here today to visit the kids.

-Seven or eight of us have been in

-Hopefully, we've brought

-a bit of Christmas...

-..to the sick children

-here in Glangwili.

-I've visited the kids every year

-It's not nice

-to be ill over Christmas.

-All the boys enjoy coming down.

-It's tough to see the children

-having operations so young.

-The families are so positive.

-I'm here today because of my son's

-partner, who has a son Levi.

-He is four months old and has had

-heart surgery in Cardiff.

-He's has problems and he's had

-to come back in this week.

-It was nice to see

-the lads from the Scarlets.

-I appreciate what they're doing.

-They give up their time

-to visit the children in hospital.

-Fair play to them.

-It's very important because we are

-in the Scarlets' catchment area.

-It's nice that they get to meet

-their heroes in the flesh.

-It's lovely for the staff

-to speak with them too.

-My sister is ill

-and has two lumps on her neck.

-That's why she is in hospital.

-The Scarlets have brought bags

-with treats and she loves them.

-We're always given

-a warm welcome here.

-They're all Scarlets fans

-and it's nice to come down here.

-Christmas is special anyway but

-to see their heroes turning up...

-..really lifts their spirits.

-It's a worthwhile experience.

-The boys feel it's their duty and

-they look forward to helping out.

-It's one small thing we can do.

-We're happy to have this opportunity

-today.

-It can be very hard and our job

-is to lift the children's spirits.

-The Scarlets have done just that

-this afternoon.

-Fair play to the lads from the

-Scarlets.
