0:00:04 > 0:00:08- Mansel Davies is one of the - most familiar names on our roads.
0:00:08 > 0:00:14- You'll inevitably get stuck behind - one of their 150 lorries.
0:00:14 > 0:00:18- But have you ever wondered - how milk reaches your Cornflakes?
0:00:18 > 0:00:23- It's 28,000 litres - which is more than I could stomach!
0:00:23 > 0:00:25- That's only one full load.
0:00:25 > 0:00:29- But it isn't the only thing - they transport.
0:00:29 > 0:00:33- It's bye, bye to Holland - and hello to Belgium.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35- Mansel Davies?
0:00:36 > 0:00:40- The company is decades old and if - Mansel wasn't holding the pencil...
0:00:41 > 0:00:45- ..he was certainly at the table - when the first wheel was designed.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49- Take pride in tailing - these kings of the road...
0:00:49 > 0:00:54- ..because this series will prove - that Mansel Davies was there first.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08- It's an ungodly hour - to be loading coal...
0:01:08 > 0:01:12- ..but Dorian is at Onllwyn - at 7.30am.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16- He's loading the duff for me - to take to Immingham.
0:01:16 > 0:01:20- It isn't as easy as filling a bucket - and hoping for the best.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24- Dorian is only legally allowed - to carry a certain amount.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- The maximum load is 44 tonnes...
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- ..but I think we've put in too much!
0:01:32 > 0:01:37- I'll put it on the weighbridge but I - think I've gone over by half a ton.
0:01:42 > 0:01:43- Yes, it is.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46- It's over half a ton.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51- It's back to the dump - to ditch that half a ton.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53- It's a bit slow.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57- This is running a bit better - but it's so wet.
0:01:59 > 0:02:03- I can't open the big door - or we'll drop four or five tonnes!
0:02:04 > 0:02:06- How about a teaspoon, Dorian?
0:02:08 > 0:02:10- It can't be far off now.
0:02:17 > 0:02:18- That's it.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21- I can cover it whilst it's here.
0:02:21 > 0:02:26- He's loaded the lorry and emptied it - of half a ton with his bare hands.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28- And it isn't even 8.00am.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- That's it, Immingham here we come.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- He now has to drive to Immingham!
0:02:35 > 0:02:39- Tipper trucks have been important - in the history of the company.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43- They were the first lorries - that hauled grain, lime and coal.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47- These days, they travel - much further afield.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50- Liverpool, Manchester, Hull.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52- Some hauls are closer to home.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55- Our small bulkers - deliver to the farms.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59- Dai Chips is responsible - for the tipper trucks...
0:02:59 > 0:03:02- ..and finds things - for them to carry back.
0:03:02 > 0:03:08- He also ensures that the drivers - know where to start and stop.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10- He forgot to stop at the door!
0:03:12 > 0:03:13- Hello?
0:03:14 > 0:03:16- The door's over here.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20- We tend to haul a lot of coal...
0:03:20 > 0:03:22- ..to places such as Hull.
0:03:23 > 0:03:27- It's near the sugar factories - so they bring back sugar beet...
0:03:27 > 0:03:30- ..because we only get paid - when we carry a haul!
0:03:30 > 0:03:33- Dorian has a 523-mile round trip.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38- He leaves from this position...
0:03:38 > 0:03:40- ..loads in Merthyr...
0:03:40 > 0:03:44- ..travels to Ketton - near Peterborough to tip there...
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- ..up to Newark - and back to Llanboidy.
0:03:47 > 0:03:52- It's like a jigsaw and - you need to find the right pieces.
0:03:52 > 0:03:53- It's quite easy.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56- A child could do it!
0:03:57 > 0:03:58- Eventually.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- Dorian is well on his way with his - load and the yard springs to life.
0:04:05 > 0:04:10- Jack Vaughan arrives to polish his - van before delivering the spares.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12- Good morning!
0:04:13 > 0:04:15- These are heavy.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19- Those are out - and I can wash the van now.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24- He won't have to carry those things - or wash the van for much longer.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27- Jack is retiring after 30 years!
0:04:27 > 0:04:29- Yes, that's right.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31- It wasn't long ago - that I left school!
0:04:32 > 0:04:33- My last day is coming.
0:04:34 > 0:04:35- He's a good asset.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39- He understands - every inch of the job.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41- He worked his way up - through the ranks...
0:04:42 > 0:04:44- ..and driven long distance.
0:04:44 > 0:04:49- He knows exactly what the job - is all about and he's good at it.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53- This is all the mess from yesterday.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55- Yes, it is.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58- It's odd when I think about it.
0:04:58 > 0:04:59- Yes.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04- But I've reached the stage - where I've got to do it...
0:05:04 > 0:05:06- ..and let the young lads - do some work.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09- We like having a young workforce.
0:05:09 > 0:05:14- A lot of companies don't give - young people any opportunities.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- It isn't an easy industry - to get into as a driver...
0:05:18 > 0:05:20- ..in terms of the insurance.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25- But we bring in youngsters - and train them up.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31- The future of this industry lies - in the hands of these young people.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34- It's important to encourage them.
0:05:34 > 0:05:38- A lot of our current workforce - is under 25.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42- In the past, you were an apprentice - and learnt on the job.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46- These days, - you need people with various skills.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49- They need to know their way - around a computer...
0:05:49 > 0:05:52- ..because it's getting - very high-tech.
0:05:53 > 0:05:58- I've seen a lot of changes - from when I started 60 years ago.
0:05:58 > 0:06:04- It's so complicated as the computers - and laptops do all the work.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06- I don't understand them.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- I can plug them in - to see what's wrong...
0:06:09 > 0:06:12- ..but the technicians understand it.
0:06:12 > 0:06:17- The laptop can diagnose the problem - but it doesn't fix it.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21- The lads still need - to fix it themselves.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26- It tells you about the brakes - and when they should be changed.
0:06:26 > 0:06:31- You have to do it yourself because - no computer can align your brakes!
0:06:31 > 0:06:36- No computer can deliver parts - around the country either.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39- I'll take these out first.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41- I was a driver for 27 years.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45- Someone in Swansea said I wasn't - fit enough to hold an HGV licence.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48- That person hadn't even met me.
0:06:48 > 0:06:52- They looked at a computer screen - and decided, "that's it!"
0:06:53 > 0:06:56- I had a heart attack when I was 47.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00- I'd go for an MOT every three years - and everything was fine.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03- I reached a certain age...
0:07:03 > 0:07:05- ..they changed my tablets...
0:07:06 > 0:07:08- ..and that was the end of it.
0:07:08 > 0:07:13- I can drive a van, carry all this - weight but I can't steer a lorry!
0:07:13 > 0:07:14- That's done.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19- I'd better write the addresses - on them or I'll forget.
0:07:20 > 0:07:21- I do miss it.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25- I'd love to jump in a lorry now - and take a haul to Spain.
0:07:26 > 0:07:27- I enjoyed it.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30- It isn't a job but a way of life.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33- That's what it is.
0:07:35 > 0:07:36- Good then, boys.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- Good then, boys.- - Good, Jack.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41- It's hard enough to get an MOT - for the car...
0:07:41 > 0:07:44- ..but that's nothing - compared to 150 lorries!
0:07:44 > 0:07:48- You'll be glad to know that - all of them are tested annually.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52- The solution - for Mansel Davies was easy.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56- They set up their own MOT testing - centre but what is it called?
0:07:56 > 0:07:58- We have our own ATF.
0:07:58 > 0:08:04- We test our own lorries and trailers - so we don't have to send them away.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09- An independent tester - who's employed by the DVSA...
0:08:09 > 0:08:12- ..is with us - every Monday and Friday.
0:08:12 > 0:08:18- We have an extra day on a Wednesday - if we've taken a lot of bookings.
0:08:18 > 0:08:24- A lorry needs to pass a lot of tests - before it's deemed road-worthy.
0:08:24 > 0:08:29- You need to check - the manufacturer's VTGB 6 plate...
0:08:29 > 0:08:31- ..that tells you the registration.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34- And over here, - I press the foot brake...
0:08:35 > 0:08:37- ..and check for any air leaks.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39- There's also the steering.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40- The lights.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42- We check all the lights.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- Next, we move to the side.
0:08:45 > 0:08:50- There's a plate on the lorry - that contains the chassis number.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52- It's spot on. Everything is fine.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57- Next, it's over the pit to inspect - the axle and shaker plates.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00- There's a lot of pressure in that.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02- Look at what it's doing to the tyre.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04- Did you see that?
0:09:04 > 0:09:05- Give it a shake.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09- The handbrake is applied - so we need to check here.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- Can you see that?
0:09:11 > 0:09:13- Nothing is moving.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- We check the kingpins.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17- In and out.
0:09:18 > 0:09:19- That's both sides.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21- Nothing is moving there.
0:09:22 > 0:09:27- When I'm happy with everything, - we move out to the light checker.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31- There's a laser in here.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- It's used to make sure - this is straight to start.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36- That's fine.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38- We can move it over.
0:09:39 > 0:09:44- The laser sits in the centre - of the bulb so that we can check it.
0:09:45 > 0:09:46- Can you see that blue line?
0:09:47 > 0:09:49- It should be below the blue line.
0:09:52 > 0:09:57- A spin on the brake rollers and - another lorry is fit for the road.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59- That's it. The test is over.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02- The brake test - and everything is done.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04- I can print this out now.
0:10:08 > 0:10:09- It comes out down here.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13- The tester goes back to the office - with the brake results.
0:10:13 > 0:10:17- You fill in the forms - and get the pass certificate.
0:10:22 > 0:10:27- Some 250 miles later and - Dorian has reached his first stop.
0:10:27 > 0:10:28- Let's open the back.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Coal duff is the remnants - of the mining industry.
0:10:35 > 0:10:39- It isn't the best produce - but all that remains.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42- This will be burnt - in local power stations.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49- But there's one important task - before he can continue.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52- I need to clean up this filth.
0:10:52 > 0:10:53- Look at the mess.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59- It takes forever to clean them out.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03- I could spend an hour - with a brush...
0:11:03 > 0:11:06- ..at a truck stop - and waiting for it to dry.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09- It's too slimy to brush out...
0:11:09 > 0:11:15- ..but isn't wet enough - to use the squidgy to get it out.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17- There's nothing for it...
0:11:17 > 0:11:22- ..but to climb into the back to use - the squidgy brush and elbow grease.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26- We'll get it dry now.
0:11:31 > 0:11:36- If not, the stuff from the wheat - distillers will stick to the floor.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39- And we won't be able to unload it.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42- It also causes dampness in the haul.
0:11:43 > 0:11:48- Dorian has filled the lorry, - emptied some of it...
0:11:48 > 0:11:51- ..driven 250 miles - to unload the whole haul...
0:11:51 > 0:11:54- ..washed and dried the inside - of the trailer...
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- ..and is nowhere near - to the end of his shift!
0:11:58 > 0:12:03- At the yard, everyone's talking - about the local chart topping song.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05- I'll be back tomorrow.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09- We leave you with the unique sound - of the Welsh Whisperer.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13- Enjoy his song, Loris Mansel Davies - and goodnight.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17- # In the village of Llanfyrnach, - I bid farewell to the moon
0:12:17 > 0:12:21- # I throw on the overalls - on a chilly morning #
0:12:21 > 0:12:23- The something Whisperer.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28- I first heard of it after - Sasha showed it to me on Facebook.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33- It's catchy, light-hearted - and a bit of fun.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36- It shows that people notice us.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38- # In the villages of the world #
0:12:38 > 0:12:40- It's quite good.
0:12:40 > 0:12:41- It's a bit of a hit with us.
0:12:42 > 0:12:43- Everyone's singing it.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45- Dai Chips is a bass.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47- Rhodri's a tenor...
0:12:47 > 0:12:49- ..so I must sing soprano!
0:12:49 > 0:12:51- # You can blow your horn
0:12:51 > 0:12:55- # I'm a Mansel Davies lorry - and there's no passing me #
0:12:55 > 0:13:00- It's quite good, it sticks in your - head and we can't stop singing it!
0:13:00 > 0:13:04- # I help the Welsh police - and the traffic cops of the world
0:13:05 > 0:13:09- # By making sure the speed freaks - and everyone stays at a low speed #
0:13:09 > 0:13:14- Not every company wants a song - about them but it's fine and good.
0:13:19 > 0:13:20- .

0:13:22 > 0:13:24- Subtitles- - Subtitles
0:13:28 > 0:13:32- Dorian is loading his second haul - of the day.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36- It's cake but he can't draw breath - let alone eat cake!
0:13:37 > 0:13:39- We're heading back to dear Wales.
0:13:40 > 0:13:44- I'll unload this so that Russell - can deliver it to the farms...
0:13:44 > 0:13:47- ..and then I can have - a weekend at home.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49- He deserves a break.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52- This is the latest venture - for Mansel Davies.
0:13:52 > 0:13:57- Stephen's son runs the cake mixing - and distributing company.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01- It's cattle feed and - we took it over a few months ago.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03- Cake is cattle feed.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- It's made up of - some core ingredients...
0:14:07 > 0:14:11- ..that are mixed together - to give the finished product.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15- It's fed to the cattle - through the winter and summer.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17- We have 14 bays...
0:14:17 > 0:14:22- ..that contain barley, - sugar beet and soya.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23- We've got everything.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27- It all depends - on the needs of the cattle.
0:14:27 > 0:14:32- It should be high in protein if - the silage is poor over the winter.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36- It depends on the herd - and their requirements.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40- Jack Vaughan needs a reliable watch!
0:14:40 > 0:14:45- He's late because everyone's out - to wish him well on his last day.
0:14:45 > 0:14:46- It's my last day.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49- It's my last day.- - Yes, it's come around quickly.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51- How long have I known you?
0:14:51 > 0:14:53- It must be 40 years!
0:14:53 > 0:14:55- It's a present for you.
0:14:55 > 0:14:56- Merry Christmas!
0:14:57 > 0:14:58- Thank you very much.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00- Thank you very much.- - No problem at all.
0:15:00 > 0:15:01- Look at that.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07- Call in for a cuppa - when you're passing.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09- Yes, I will.
0:15:09 > 0:15:13- With his van clinking - like a brewery's lorry...
0:15:13 > 0:15:17- ...he heads to Temple Bar - for his final stop.
0:15:19 > 0:15:20- How are you, lads?
0:15:20 > 0:15:22- How are you, Will?
0:15:22 > 0:15:24- You don't have to talk to me!
0:15:25 > 0:15:26- Here you go, Jack.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28- I've got a sponge for you.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31- Is there a knife - so that we can have a slice?
0:15:32 > 0:15:32- I'll sort something out.
0:15:32 > 0:15:33- I'll sort something out.- - Good boy!
0:15:34 > 0:15:39- I'll have to go in ten minutes - before it gets dark.

0:16:37 > 0:16:41- When I started, I didn't expect - to be doing this for long...
0:16:41 > 0:16:44- ..but the last 42 years - have flown by!
0:16:46 > 0:16:49- If I stick with them - until I can retire...
0:16:49 > 0:16:54- ..and work an extra year then I will - have been with them for 50 years.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57- My father - and six brothers worked there.
0:16:57 > 0:17:02- No, five brothers - because I'm the sixth!
0:17:02 > 0:17:06- I don't know what I could do - if I packed it all in.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10- I'd be a pilot - to try something different.

0:19:39 > 0:19:40- It's up to them.
0:19:41 > 0:19:42- They can do what they like.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51- I hope it continues - as long as they love it.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55- The company has survived for years - and we've built it up.
0:19:55 > 0:20:00- We're in the countryside and feel - that we're important to the area.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03- We hope to keep it going.
0:20:03 > 0:20:09- Sasha is home at the moment and - Scott is showing an interest too.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13- It would be good - if they decided to keep it running.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17- It's their decision - if they want to do something else.
0:20:17 > 0:20:22- They don't have to stay but it's - likely that they'll come back here.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25- Hello, Mansel Davies.

0:20:40 > 0:20:45- She can run the transport side - and I'll be in the garages.
0:20:45 > 0:20:50- She's always going to think - that she's the main boss...
0:20:50 > 0:20:55- ..but let me say that - she won't be in charge of me!
0:20:55 > 0:21:01- Strong leadership is essential - but so is a reliable workforce.
