-Aled Hughes and Gareth Wyn Jones

-have joined us tonight.

-They are friends at the moment.

-But our poll on Twitter

-could change that!

-Aled is a familiar voice

-among viewers of Radio Cymru.

-We must congratulate you

-and your Radio Cymru team.

-You've won Best Radio Magazine

-at the Celtic Media Festival.

-I have to stress

-that it's all for the team.

-I was honoured to get the award.

-It looks great.

-I've been doing it for 15 months.

-It's been great.

-I hope we have something

-to interest everyone.

-We cover an array of topics.

-There's a challenge that you

-set yourself in the programmes.

-Yes, there's a challenge

-as part of the programme.

-I can't explain the reason for this.

-I go from one challenge to the next.

-This year, I'm going to go

-rafting down the Menai Straits.

-I did some ballet.

-I wanted to show people...

-..that ballet offers more

-than people think.

-You have also been chasing sheep

-with Gareth!

-He was great on the farm.

-I've been helping Gareth.

-He's so busy on the social media.

-Vote for me on Twitter!

-Tell us more about

-your rafting challenge.

-There's a team for the rafting.

-Every year, a group of people

-organize the event.

-We hope to raise as much money

-as possible.

-Dyl Mei and I and many others

-helped to try and build a raft...

-..but we're going to borrow a raft..

-..as ours was hopeless!

-I heard that you walked away, Aled.

-Dei Tomos is very angry!

-I couldn't stand it.

-Dilwyn Morgan refuses

-to sail on the sea...

-We ran a poll on Radio Cymru.

-I'm feeling nervous now.

-The name of the raft is Ar Y Fenai.

-The race is on 4 June.

-We're going down the Menai Straits.

-It starts in Felinheli

-and ends at Menai Bridge.

-We're all happy with the name.

-Cast your votes for

-A week tomorrow sees the arrival

-of the Urdd Eisteddfod in Bridgend.

-Two Welsh authors will be honoured

-at the Tir na n-Og award ceremony...

-..for best children's

-and young people's book.

-Five authors have been shortlisted

-and we'll meet them all this week.

-We've met Manon Steffan Ros

-and Myrddin ap Dafydd.

-Tonight, we meet Meinir Wyn Edwards.

-The year of 2017 is earmarked

-as the Year of Legends in Wales.

-It's important that both adults

-and children know about our legends.

-Deg Chwedlau Cymru has ten legends

-that are old and new from Wales...

-..and ranges from the Mabinogion

-to the 19th century.

-Reading the legends teach us about

-our history, culture and traditions.

-I wrote this book in the hope

-of bringing these stories to life.

-The stories are full of heroes,

-adventure and excitement.

-It's wonderful to have them on our

-doorstep set in familiar locations.

-It's hoped that as the children

-grow into adults...

-..that they tell these stories

-to the next generation...

-..which is how these legends

-came to our knowledge today.

-'Everyone gathered

-for an important announcement.

-"Gentlemen, we have gathered

-for the very important task...

-"..of choosing a king

-for the people of Gwynedd."

-'Tension filled the air

-and everyone held their breath...

-'..and heard the screaming seagulls

-and wind rushing through the dunes.'

-I've been attending the Tir na n-Og

-Awards ceremony for ten years.

-As an editor for Y Lolfa...

-..I've worked on a lot of the books

-that have been shortlisted and won.

-I never expected to be there

-as an author.

-People think it's easy

-to write children's books...

-..but children are the toughest

-and most judgemental crowd.

-I'm in awe of authors such as

-Manon Steffan and Caryl Lewis...

-..and the late Gareth F Williams

-who won six Tir na n-Og Awards.

-Gareth said that recognition and

-praise for his children's books...

-..from children was priceless.

-"The next king of Gwynedd

-will be the one who makes a chair...

-"..that floats on the sea

-for the longest."

-'Maelgwn looked at Einion and a

-broad smile spread across his face.

-'He had a plan.

-'They ran to the dunes

-and started building.

-'Canoes and rubber dinghies

-didn't exist 1,500 years ago.

-'After working secretly

-for three hours...

-'..Maelgwn had a strange chair.'

-The Tir na n-Og Awards

-are very important...

-..and raise awareness

-about Welsh children's literature...

-..and promote original

-Welsh language literature.

-I'm looking forward to the Thursday

-at the Urdd Eisteddfod...

-..to see which two authors

-win the awards this year.

-We'll hear about another nominee

-on tomorrow night's Heno.

-It's Luned Aaron.

-The Urdd Eisteddfod

-is on the horizon.

-Are you Eisteddfod-goers?

-I've been to the Urdd Eisteddfod

-a few times.

-I don't really go to the Eisteddfod.

-I prefer the Royal Welsh Show.

-That's a busy time for me.

-You can't do everything!

-There's a lot of people

-who work hard...

-..to make the Urdd Eisteddfod

-a success.

-I'll have a break next week.

-What about camping?

-I don't mind camping.

-I've slept in a few awnings

-in my time.

-You have three children.

-We don't have a tent.

-It sounds like a nightmare!

-It's time to reveal the winner

-of this week's competition.

-You could win camping equipment

-to create the perfect adventure.

-The lucky winner is

-Gwenda Humphreys from Corwen.

-Congratulations to you.

-The weather is set to be warm!

-After the break...

-..Gareth Thomas and Run Wales appeal

-for new recruits for Alfie's Army.

-And students from Coleg Menai

-are performing Fame: The Musical.

-We'll meet the cast shortly.

-There are a handful of tickets left.

-The show will run for three nights

-and there's a few left for Friday.

-I won't keep you

-and good luck to you.

-Thanks for joining us.

-Where are you now, Mari?

-I'm still sitting

-on the yellow sofa...

-..but have moved upstairs

-with the designer, Mandy Watkins.

-Welcome to the programme

-and thank you for being here.

-Before you explain all the items

-around us, tell us about yourself.

-I've been designing

-since I graduated.

-I worked with a designer

-before moving back to Anglesey...

-..and struggled to get work so got

-a job with the Countryside Council.

-I was more interested in my

-first job so did a diploma...

-..and started things slowly.

-I fell pregnant

-with my third child...

-..and decided that I wanted

-to concentrate solely on designing.

-It's a vast field so what sort

-of designing are you talking about?

-I specialize in interior design

-and working in homes and spaces...

-..so that includes homes,

-hotels, bars and anything.

-It's quite vast

-but it's all about interior design.

-How do people contact you

-and where do you find work?

-Four years ago,

-I opened a shop in Menai Bridge.

-I worked from home but felt the need

-to have a space on the high street.

-It would act as an office.

-There was a growing demand

-for accessories for the home.

-I've got a vision...

-..and was getting frustrated

-about what was on offer on Anglesey.

-There's a lot of lovely shops

-but wanted something for the house.

-Social media means people don't

-need shops as a lot happens online.

-I understand that you're very active

-on Instagram.

-These days, everything is instant

-via Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter.

-People don't buy magazines any more.

-No, and I was terrible

-at buying fashion magazines...

-..but have had to stop myself

-because I can look online.

-You reach an age where you

-don't want throwaway fashion...

-..but want to make an investment.

-I'm looking forward to hearing

-all about these items later.

-Are you aged between 18 and 21,

-like a challenge and enjoy running?

-Alfie's Angels were a success

-at the Cardiff Half Marathon...

-..and the former rugby player

-is appealing for new recruits.

-Here are details.

-We're looking for young people

-aged between 18 and 25...

-..to take part for the first time

-in the Cardiff Half Marathon.

-We want novices who have never ran

-a half-marathon before.

-Our specific hope is to have teams

-of five so we have 20 teams.

-About 18 teams

-will have our support.

-Two teams will appear in the series,

-Alfie's Angels: Alfie's Army.

-They get a free spot in the race,

-support from the 16-week program...

-..will meet Alfie in training and do

-a 10k race prior to the main event.

-There are plenty of opportunities

-and support along the way.

-This is great for people

-to do something different.

-Those aged 18 to 25 don't really go

-running or partake in such events.

-I suspect they think it's boring

-but it's nothing of the sort.

-It's a huge challenge

-unless you know what to expect...

-..but Gareth will be there

-to support you.

-I can promise you

-that it's going to be a lot of fun.

-The deadline for Alfie's Army

-is Wednesday 31 May.

-The registration address is

-www.cardiffmarathon.co.uk/100club

-Do you enjoy running?

-I don't have much choice...

-..as I have to run around the hills.

-I often run after the sheep.

-What about you, Aled?

-I enjoy cycling.

-I should be back on the bike

-by Christmas.

-I went from Swansea

-to Bangor last time.

-I hadn't ridden a bike

-from 20 years.

-It was more difficult going up...

-..as opposed to coming back!

-You're used to running after sheep.

-You do a lot of running around!

-Yes, I work on television...

-..and have to run the farm.

-I don't think we share enough

-of about the farming life.

-You can use social media...

-..to show people what

-we do from day to day.

-I love doing something...

-..such as the programme

-about the milk industry.

-..such as the programme

-about the milk industry.

-There are ups and downs

-for every industry.

-There's a television in most homes.

-You can pass your message

-through the screen.

-You've also got a new message

-for us.

-We want to find three families...

-..to take on the challenge

-of living and working...

-..on a hillside farm

-in Snowdonia this August.

-They will live with us for

-three weeks.

-It's called Family Farm.

-It's being presented by Kate Humble.

-Oh, yes!

-She's got a lot of work

-on her hands.

-We'll get to work on the

-Royal Welsh Show together too.

-It's going to be a busy time.

-How can families get in touch?

-We want any sort of families...

-..to take part in the series.

-It's open to all kinds of families.

-You are filming over the summer.

-We're filming

-for three weeks in August.

-Let's hope the sun shines.

-They'll be living in

-a small village of yurts.

-It sounds incredible.

-He can try to take part.

-After the break...

-..we hear of a scheme to helps those

-with hearing and visual impairments.

-And Mandy Watkins showcases

-summer styles for the home.

-.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back to Heno,

-live from Galeri, Caernarfon.

-Next, we hear of a new scheme

-called Access Carmarthen.

-The founder, Lizzie Johnstone

-has been working tirelessly...

-..to ensure that local business are

-aware of the needs and concerns...

-..of individuals with hearing and

-visual impairments whilst shopping.

-Her training has attracted

-a lot of attention.

-I was on the square in Carmarthen.

-People looked distorted and

-I didn't know what was happening...

-..so I went to see a consultant

-at Glangwili Hospital.

-He told me that it would go in time

-but I had to put up with it.

-Seven years ago,

-Lizzie was registered as blind.

-She might not be able to help her

-own vision but wants to help others.

-I was invited to the

-Chamber of Trade in Carmarthen...

-..and they told me they needed us

-to look at more than just the eyes.

-We chose the eye, ear,

-wheelchair and walking stick.

-You can see people in a wheelchair

-or with a walking stick...

-..but there's nothing to say

-that I have serious sight problems.

-I wanted to highlight it.

-The card is discrete

-as you show it and that's it.

-People have walking sticks

-or guard dogs.

-You're more vulnerable

-if you have a disability.

-We train staff

-by putting them in my position.

-They wear assimilated glasses

-to get a feel for it and understand.

-How has Carmarthen

-welcomed this scheme?

-It's more positive now than 16 years

-ago as we have more knowledge.

-The youngsters are amazing

-and Carmarthen is an amazing place.

-I wouldn't like to leave Carmarthen

-to go shopping by myself.

-Local businesses have welcomed

-the scheme with open arms...

-..by attending training sessions

-at various locations.

-O2 has been raising money for

-Access Carmarthen with our bucket...

-..and cake stalls.

-We've also hosted training sessions

-in the shop today and Thursday.

-We're happy to support Access

-Carmarthen and good luck to Lizzie.

-Rhian Evans

-lost her sight in her thirties.

-She plays a prominent role

-with the blind in Carmarthen.

-I've had over 40 years experience

-of going shopping.

-People have been exceptionally kind

-in every shop I visit.

-My white stick

-shows people that I need help.

-People move out of my way

-when they see my white stick.

-It's different to those

-with hearing impairments.

-They are not as easy to spot

-as a blind person.

-The scheme that's being orchestrated

-in Carmarthen is excellent.

-It trains people how to help anyone

-with a disability.

-Lizzie is a real inspiration.

-People from Scotland are interested

-in the scheme so watch this space!

-It's time for style advice

-from Mandy Watkins.

-We've heard about your life

-but you've got some advice now.

-Yes, I hit the high street and

-looked in local independent shops...

-..to choose items

-that enhance your home.

-When decorating, it's important

-to have a good foundation.

-Buy a good sofa

-that will last for many years...

-..but you can have more fun

-with accessories.

-Trends in fashion come and go.

-You can buy cheap tops and

-the same is true for home styling.

-Where do we start?

-Greenery is a massive theme.

-The plant is from The Range

-and very reasonably priced.

-It's quite big

-so has a presence in a room.

-There's a lot of these items

-to be found and they look fake.

-I thought it was real!

-It brings your garden indoors.

-Greenery looks great in rooms that

-are green, yellow, grey or pink.

-Green is a natural colour

-of the outdoors...

-..so goes with a lot of colours.

-A touch of greenery

-makes such a difference to a room.

-I'm better at watering now but

-don't always have the time to do it.

-I don't feel guilty about

-having that as it won't die!

-The table is full

-of monochrome items.

-I think that black and white

-can be treated as neutrals...

-..as they match everything.

-People wear black,

-a white top and add colour...

-..and it's the same for the home

-as it's a classic look.

-These are great

-with the geometric designs.

-The front item is from Peris & Corr

-and is a Welsh fabric.

-It's lovely as black and white

-compliments the accessories.

-It can make quite a statement.

-People tend to fear this

-so stick with brown, grey or taupe.

-These pieces are more interesting.

-That's when it helps

-to have you at hand.

-A lot of people stick to patterns

-such as florals...

-..but you can experiment with these

-things as they are cheap enough.

-I always tell people

-to try to go that extra step.

-The rug is next.

-These rugs are all over Instagram.

-Some rugs have their own

-Instagram accounts!

-The problem

-is that it drowns the market.

-The cream and dark grey

-will match a lot of schemes.

-I imagine that rug at the foot

-of a bed as it gives a lot.

-It looks great on this wooden floor.

-People often ask about

-placing a rug on top of a carpet.

-It's much cheaper to get a rug

-than to change a carpet.

-Buy a new rug if you're fed up

-with your carpet!

-What's next?

-We've got these cushions

-that resemble velvet.

-These are large and great

-for covering an ugly sofa or bed.

-Cushions hide a lot of things

-when you have children!

-These are only 12

-which is an incredible price.

-Pink is very fashionable

-at the moment.

-Many people don't have pink but

-try these as they're a great size.

-They also stand up on a well-dressed

-bed and you can play with colours.

-Male viewers will be annoyed

-with all the cushions.

-Don't tell them that they are pink

-but say that it's blush.

-Marble is still popular.

-That phone is great.

-That phone is great.

-

-Yes, it's brilliant.

-There's also the pink flamingo

-which is just a bit of fun.

-Bronze accessories

-are also very fashionable.

-You've given us plenty of ideas

-so thank you for all that, Mandy.

-In the final part

-of tonight's programme...

-..we celebrate 40 years

-of the Star Wars franchise.

-And we call a lucky viewer

-to play Fancy A Fortune?

-.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-The moment has arrived.

-It's time to play Fancy A Fortune?

-# Fancy A Fortune? #

-Aled won the viewers' poll by 52%

-to Gareth's 48%.

-It was certainly close!

-Gareth is guarding the winnings

-for us.

-I've got a list of phone numbers.

-The dialling code is 01559.

-I can tell you that this number

-is for the Llandysul area.

-We asked you if you knew

-the colour of Mistar Urdd.

-The answer is red, white and green.

-It's ringing.

-It's still ringing.

-Answer the phone

-if you entered the competition.

-Hello?

-Hello, it's Mari Grug

-and Rhodri Owen from S4C's Heno.

-Who are we talking to?

-It's Louis Thomas.

-I'm from Maesycrugiau.

-Turn down your television.

-You can hear me better.

-Aled will give the wheel a spin

-and we'll see how much you've won.

-Good luck to you!

-We need to beat the 500

-from last week.

-Congratulations, you've won 500.

-That's wonderful.

-How are you going

-to spend the money?

-I'll give it to my wife.

-You're a good husband!

-She's a lucky lady.

-Join us again next Wednesday when

-we'll be playing Fancy A Fortune?

-# Fancy A Fortune? #

-Our thanks to Aled

-for spinning our wheel.

-Congratulations to you, Louis.

-Star Wars fans will have seen

-the trailer of the latest film.

-The Last Jedi

-hits our cinemas in December.

-It's 40 years ago tomorrow,

-on 25 May 1977...

-..that the original film opened

-at cinema in the United States.

-It transformed our cinemas.

-Rhodri traces the appeal

-of the Star Wars franchise.

-It was a time that saw Vietnam,

-Watergate and the Cold War...

-..and the American population

-needed some escapism at the cinema.

-Spielberg started with Jaws

-and George Lucas gave us Star Wars.

-Star Wars changed cinema

-and the way we look at films.

-You could argue that this was

-the first ever blockbuster.

-It has adventure, disappointment,

-tragedy and happiness.

-It has something for everyone.

-I remember watching it on VHS

-when I was eight years old.

-My head exploded with the adventure

-being played out in front of me.

-Until that point, I went to the

-cinema for fun and forgot about it.

-The opening shot saw Princess Leia

-in her space shuttle...

-..being chased through the cosmos

-by the Star Destroyer.

-I still think it's the best opening

-shot in the history of cinema.

-This was when Coppola, Spielberg

-and Scorsese were all young men.

-They grew up on John Ford films

-and the films of the 1930s.

-Star Wars was totally different

-and had never been seen before.

-Lucas' plan for a series of films

-was also pioneering...

-..just like its marketing.

-From the start, George Lucas planned

-to sell everything about the film.

-There were t-shirts,

-posters and action figures.

-Mam said that when I was three, I'd

-walk around with a box on my head...

-..and pretended to be Darth Vader.

-My children

-can't touch these things!

-These days, every film

-has some kind of toy or merchandise.

-There's the massive franchises with

-The Marvel Universe, The Avengers...

-..Spider-Man and Harry Potter.

-Star Wars started the idea of toys

-and films going hand-in-hand.

-I love my Millennium Falcon

-but Darth Vader is the man.

-All the great guys wear black!

-The merchandise alone since the

-launch of the first Star Wars...

-..is worth about 32 billion.

-Well done, George!

-Star Wars: The Last Jedi

-is on the horizon...

-..but we've lost Vader and Han Solo.

-The greatest loss came

-with the death of Carrie Fisher.

-Carrie Fisher's death was a massive

-blow as I grew up watching her.

-Ask any man for their first crush

-and it's Princess Leia.

-I fell in love with her

-in the original Star Wars...

-..and totally fell for her

-in The Return of the Jedi...

-..but she was the heart of the film.

-This was a time when women

-weren't meant to be heroic in films.

-She wasn't a princess

-who needed to be rescued.

-She was feisty, answered back

-and always had a go at Han Solo.

-I'm so excited about December

-and The Last Jedi...

-..but the loss of Carrie Fisher

-and Princess Leia...

-..is going to be emotional to see
