0:05:49 > 0:05:52- ..and their old jungle friends - back in Traws hall.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- Richard's on board. - But the search has only just begun.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03- Despite - a heavy workload on the farm...
0:06:03 > 0:06:07- ..Rhys needs - to shepherd a gang of Tarzans.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11- Are you free to come to the reunion?
0:06:15 > 0:06:19- Where better to start the search - in Traws than the local pub?!
0:06:20 > 0:06:22- This regular might bring some luck.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24- This regular might bring some luck.- - Are you OK? How are you, Rhys?

0:06:59 > 0:07:02- I lost my hair in my twenties.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05- It was one of those things - - stress related.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09- I began to wear - a baseball cap instead...
0:07:10 > 0:07:12- ..to replace the hair!
0:07:12 > 0:07:16- It's not a trademark, I'm used - to wearing it, just like trousers!
0:07:18 > 0:07:22- The bloke in the cap - can remember the fashion too.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27- I vaguely remember a piece - of fur around my waist, shorts...
0:07:28 > 0:07:30- ..and some top or other.

0:15:31 > 0:15:35- A lady in front of me said, - "Is he telling the truth?"
0:15:36 > 0:15:38- What is Michael doing nowadays?
0:15:40 > 0:15:46- We returned to Malawi - a month or so after the carnival.

0:18:15 > 0:18:20- I went back to Afghanistan - and Kosovo as a reservist.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24- But I still come back to Traws.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27- There's nowhere like it.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31- After all the phone calls, - Owain finally arrives.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34- I'm quite nervous - - I haven't seen them in years.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38- I'm looking forward - to seeing who's there.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- The lorry driver won't miss - the chance to be a Tarzan again!
0:18:44 > 0:18:46- How are you all?
0:18:47 > 0:18:48- Are you OK?
0:18:50 > 0:18:53- Little do they know a surprise - awaits them outside the hall.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58- Shall we go in? I wonder - if they'll be glad to see me!
0:18:59 > 0:19:03- Mr Jones has brought a few - mementoes from the jungle along.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07- Here we are. How are you?
0:19:11 > 0:19:12- How are you?
0:19:14 > 0:19:18- We need to wear these now - - as you were, more or less.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22- There's a pair of shorts each.
0:19:23 > 0:19:24- There are still a couple missing.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26- There are still a couple missing.- - Who's this?
0:19:26 > 0:19:26- Mark O'Neil.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28- Mark O'Neil.- - Of course!
0:19:30 > 0:19:33- One of the old Tarzans - still likes to perform.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38- The whole rock and roll thing - was Mum's fault.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42- She called me - Elvis Aaron Presley O'Neil.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45- # Hello, hello #
0:19:46 > 0:19:49- Mark O'Neil - now lives in Oxfordshire.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52- Tonight, - he's performing in Aberystwyth.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54- On my first day in Traws school...
0:19:54 > 0:20:01- ..the headmaster said, "Right, - children! What shall we sing today?"
0:20:01 > 0:20:04- I yelled, "Rock and roll!"
0:20:07 > 0:20:11- When I first saw the photo - I thought it was a wind-up.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13- I didn't recognize myself at all!
0:20:14 > 0:20:16- It looks like me.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20- I can't remember the competition, - why I went, nor when it happened.
0:20:21 > 0:20:25- I thought Trawsfynydd was OK - - but I was 7.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29- What I'm trying to say is, - everything's OK when you're 7.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33- Traws is quite grey, - when I think about it.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36- It's not a good place, in my mind.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39- Will the rocker - return to the Traws hall stage?
0:20:40 > 0:20:42- We're not sure who this one was.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47- That's my cousin, Dylan.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50- Work commitments - prevent Dylan from coming.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52- Rhys receives a text message.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56- "There's a reason - why the past is the past...
0:20:56 > 0:20:59- "..and I'd like - to keep it that way."
0:21:00 > 0:21:01- Mark O'Neil.
0:21:03 > 0:21:04- Shame.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07- I was looking forward to seeing him.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10- Going back in time - doesn't suit everyone.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15- The rest of the lads - enter into the spirit of it all...
0:21:15 > 0:21:17- ..as the photographer prepares.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26- There is one final surprise - for the Tarzans.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29- It took him - 6 hours to get here today.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32- My life is completely - outside of Trawsfynydd now...
0:21:32 > 0:21:34- ..but my roots are still here.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36- This is Michael.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39- I spent time here, - went to the local school.
0:21:39 > 0:21:43- Learnt - and forgot - a little bit - of Welsh. I entered the competition!
0:21:43 > 0:21:46- That was the highlight - of my time in Traws...
0:21:46 > 0:21:49- ..winning the competition - against all the local talent.
0:21:51 > 0:21:52- Who's this?
0:21:52 > 0:21:53- Who's this?- - I'm Mike.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58- Rhys's detective work paid off. - Mr Tarzan 1980 is back in Traws.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01- I was the winner.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05- The Tarzans are one gang once again.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08- I had the snake last time!
0:22:08 > 0:22:10- There you go, then.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15- Are you in the same places?
0:22:17 > 0:22:22- They were 8-year-olds when they - stepped on stage thirty years ago.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32- Are you removing the t-shirts? - Well done, Owain!
0:22:33 > 0:22:37- I won't do it on my own! No way!
0:22:40 > 0:22:43- They just need - to get the costume right.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47- Tarzan didn't put his hands - in his pocket!
0:22:48 > 0:22:51- The same crowd are back - in exactly the same place.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55- But Tarzan wouldn't - be Tarzan without...
0:22:55 > 0:22:58- One, two, three.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02- FEEBLE TARZAN CRY
0:23:03 > 0:23:05- It's not as good as it was!
0:23:05 > 0:23:07- It's a bit harder - for the lads today.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10- One, two, three.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13- LOUD TARZAN CRY
0:23:16 > 0:23:19- Some have moved away, - others are closer to home.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24- But for one brief moment, the 1980 - Trawsfynydd Tarzans are reunited.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28- It's been a fun day.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33- I had the same trouble with - the schoolchildren many years ago.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37- Some wouldn't listen, others talked - non-stop. I'd tell them to be quiet.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43- Thinking back - to when we were in school...
0:23:43 > 0:23:46- ..our personalities - haven't changed that much.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48- We're still Traws lads.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52- We're older and uglier.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56- It's amazing to see the lads again.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01- We were young and shy - - now we're old, noisy...
0:24:01 > 0:24:03- ..and embarrassed!
0:24:05 > 0:24:08- People hardly change - when they grow up!
