-a soup and baked Alaska.

-Welcome to Prynhawn Da.

-But we start with a look back at

-the weekend newspapers with Heledd.

-Welcome to the programme.

-Thank you.

-We start with events from America.

-There has been bad news

-from America.

-President Trump has banned people

-from seven countries.

-The countries affected are...

-..Syria, Iran, Sudan, Libya,

-Somalia, Yemen and Iraq.

-He claims top be protecting the USA.

-Nigel Farage has praised him.

-He is saying that every Muslim

-is part of ISIS.

-It's similar to Germany

-in the 1930s.

-It is utter racism.

-He mentioned this before

-being elected.

-Many people here voted for Brexit

-for similar reasons.

-People are connecting Muslims

-with terrorism.

-Trump has ignored the courts

-in the USA.

-That also happened in Germany.

-Mo Farah has hit the headlines

-because of this.

-He's been caught up in it.

-Trump didn't expect this reaction.

-All these people

-are allowed to got here.

-Some of them are refugees.

-Saudi Arabia isn't on the list.

-He has business interest there.

-15 of the 19 terrorists in 9/11

-were from Saudi Arabia.

-It's not about terrorism.

-We haven't heard the end of this.

-Theresa May met him last week.

-She is looking for business partners

-post Brexit.

-Some people have complained

-about Brexit.

-USA have different standards

-for foods for example.

-There will still be

-a lot of bureaucracy.

-Theresa May has agreed a 100M

-trade deal with Turkey.

-Britain will help develop fighter

-jets for the Turkish Air Force.

-Do we want to just sell arms?

-It's been done for many years.

-There has been an increase

-in arms sales recently.

-Turkey have a poor human rights

-record.

-The UK sell arms to many people.

-That is not good for human rights.

-Refugees come

-from war-torn countries.

-Truths can be very complicated.

-Lies can blind people.

-There has been talk of fake news.

-Fake news is big this year.

-Trump dismisses things as fake news.

-MPs are to investigate threat

-to democracy from 'fake news'.

-They'll seek to determine an

-industry-standard definition...

-..of fake news.

-Do search engines

-and social media companies...

-..need to take more responsibility

-in controlling fake news?

-People should be told

-what is fake news.

-The BBC have shown

-a lot of fake news.

-They have had to report lies as well

-as truth in the Brexit debate.

-They have to show both sides.

-We all know about the 350M a week.

-That was a lie.

-Democracy has to show the truth.

-We also discuss fake news on

-Thursday.

-Still to come on Prynhawn Da...

-..Lisa makes a soup in the kitchen

-that's perfect for a day like today.

-Hana Medi takes a look at

-a collection of various shoes.

-This week is Storytelling Week.

-To celebrate, we'll enjoy a daily

-excerpt of a story on Prynhawn Da.

-The author Mari George delivers

-her first passage from Hi a Fi.

-'HER AND ME'

-I called her Branwen despite

-her being like the sunshine.

-My Branwen, my only daughter,

-in memory of the crows of war...

-..that became white

-under the deadly sun.

-The night she was conceived,

-I was thinking of someone else.

-In the sweat and dark kisses of our

-drunken union, I loved another.

-But that was fine.

-I gave myself that right.

-I'm sure many women do the same.

-That other person was everywhere.

-In my mirror, the fingerprints

-on my wine glass...

-..in my stomach, my heart,

-in the song of every small bird.

-The night before her birth,

-I dreamt that I had gone mad.

-That was no surprise.

-My head was heavier

-than my pregnant body.

-Llyr's words would echo in my ears,

-insulting me and making me ugly.

-No surprise either that the

-warm water of my self deceit...

-..that protected Branwen, did

-flow from my body on that night...

-..when I was swimming in the river,

-mingling with the cold water.

-Within three hours,

-I was lying on dry cloths...

-..giving birth

-without uttering one cry.

-Physical pain doesn't hurt those

-who have given up on feeling.

-After giving birth to strong

-children like mine...

-..Branwen's birth was different.

-Very, very different.

-.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-Lisa is making soup for us today.

-Before this, let's hear what is

-your favourite soup or broth.

-What is your favourite soup?

-Leek and potato.

-Why is that?

-Why is that?

-

-Because it's lovely.

-Cawl, if there's some to be had.

-Cawl, with plenty of vegetables.

-Chicken and pumpkin.

-Leek and...

-..no, I've changed my mind,

-curried parsnip.

-I can make that myself.

-Tomato.

-I like tomatoes.

-Vegetable soup.

-Carrot and coriander,

-as long as it's tasty.

-What is your favourite soup?

-I don't like soup!

-I liked cock-a-leekie soup.

-What about you?

-I love French onion soup.

-We all make our own soups now.

-It's easy to make.

-Some people are scared!

-I love Welsh Cawl.

-I made a lobscouse yesterday.

-I start with frying one chopped

-onion for about 6 to 7 minutes.

-You fry it to caramelize

-and give it a deeper flavour.

-You can use a slow cooker.

-It's the base of most soups.

-This is a simple soup.

-You can also make watercress soup.

-Add a chopped garlic clove and fry

-for another couple of minutes.

-I've got carrots and ginger.

-You don't have to add it.

-Take off the skin of the garlic.

-Chop it up.

-Add some ginger.

-Press a spoon against the ginger.

-You don't waste a lot of the ginger.

-It's easy to waste.

-It has a strong taste.

-You need the ginger

-because of what it's called!

-Add the carrot and sweet potato.

-Put in three large potatoes.

-I'm using 250g of carrots.

-There is about

-400g of sweet potato.

-There's no real rules to follow.

-Add what you have.

-As a relish,

-I'm chopping sweet potato thinly.

-Make sweet potato fries.

-They are very healthy.

-They are just like chips.

-They are great for fussy kids.

-Add some seasoning to the soup.

-Use a litre of vegetable stock

-and bring to the boil.

-Simmer for about 15 minutes

-until the vegetables are soft.

-At the end, I'm adding three

-tablespoons of coconut milk.

-Blitz it all in a food processor

-until smooth.

-It's a thick soup.

-Serve with the chips.

-If you've got a shoe fetish like me,

-then you'll enjoy this next item.

-But today's collector doesn't have

-shoes you wear, as Hana discovers.

-Derwen Stud is home to some of the

-world's most beautiful horses...

-..and home too to Myfanwy Lloyd.

-Myfanwy loves her horse but she

-also loves collecting small shoes.

-COLLECTING SMALL SHOES

-My first question is how did you

-start collecting these small shoes?

-My mother started it all.

-She brought me a glass shoe

-when I was 13 years old.

-The collection stemmed from that.

-Do you buy them yourself

-or do you get them as gifts?

-I do buy a lot of them

-but I also get a few as presents...

-..from friends, from people who've

-been on holiday or at Christmas.

-Some go back to 1890.

-This small green on with shells

-and sand on it is very old.

-It's one of my favourites.

-My husband brought one back

-from London.

-It is made from brass

-and is actually a snuff box.

-It's quite valuable

-because it's so unusual.

-The one made from slate

-is very interesting.

-It's for holding thimbles.

-Maybe it was used by a tailor...

-..or made by a slate worker

-as a gift for his wife.

-I don't know.

-Sometimes, it's nice to wonder

-who made them and for what purpose.

-I only have two solid silver ones.

-They are very unusual

-and very expensive.

-It's used to keep pins

-when you're sewing.

-I have a pair of riding boots

-made of pewter.

-They came from a pub

-and were used to measure spirits.

-One of them is decorated

-with a dragonfly.

-It's very colourful in blue,

-green, white and yellow.

-Somebody's been very busy

-painting that one.

-There are shoes of all sizes

-in the collection.

-From the biggest to tiny ones.

-Whatever their shape,

-size or colour...

-..there's a safe place for them all.

-When I had 250 of them,

-I had a cabinet made for them.

-I had a job making

-the carpenter understand...

-..that I wanted

-a lot of narrow shelves.

-We came to an understanding and

-the cabinet is full to the hilt.

-Do they come out often to be dusted?

-I take them out one shelf at a time

-to dust them twice a year.

-Myfanwy's family has been involved

-with horses for centuries.

-Despite this, there's no horse

-in the collection.

-No, it's odd that there's no horses.

-I have dogs, cats, chicks, and birds

-but no horses.

-I've never seen one with horses.

-Seeing all these small shoes...

-..would make one think

-that you like shoes of all kinds.

-Do you have a lot of shoes to wear?

-No, I'd never thought of that

-until you asked!

-I don't have a big collection

-of shoes to wear.

-Nobody's asked me

-that question before.

-One pair has caught my eye.

-I really fancy these tiny ones

-made of crystal.

-Yes, crystal and they're tiny

-and topped with some gold.

-They catch the sunlight

-and are very beautiful.

-Thanks for allowing me to take

-a look at these wonderful shoes.

-You are welcome.

-I've got many shoes I don't wear,

-but they're the ones that fit me!

-This soup is delicious too.

-Get in touch if you would also like

-to share your collectibles with us.

-You can contact with your stories or

-with your questions for our experts.

-It could be a culinary query,

-or fashion dilemma.

-See you in a few minutes.

-Welcome back.

-Over the weekend, thousands of us

-were counting birds...

-..as part of the RSPB's

-The Big Garden Birdwatch.

-It's the biggest survey of its kind

-in the world.

-Daniel Jenkins-Jones is the Head

-of Public Affairs at RSPB Cymru...

-..and he joins me

-to tell us more about it.

-I understand that it all started

-as a children's event.

-It started 38 years ago in 1978

-with the programme, Blue Peter...

-..that was presented by Peter Perves

-and John Noakes.

-It started in 1979 and was for the

-RSPB's Young Ornithologists Club.

-It was an experiment to get

-children interested in nature.

-It wasn't scientific at the time

-but it has grown and grown.

-Over the weekend, we hope 500,000

-people of all ages across Britain...

-..will have completed the survey.

-These days,

-it has become scientific.

-All the information gathered

-from the participants...

-..means our scientists assess the

-figures from one year to the next.

-They can see how our garden birds

-have changed since 1979.

-It appeals to everyone

-because anyone can do it.

-Yes, it's scientific

-but anyone can gather information.

-It's important and this comes under

-the modern term of citizen science.

-It's the first step to help

-conservationists with their work.

-People hear about the dire situation

-of our world and wonder what to do.

-This is something small to do with

-a cuppa and a chocolate biscuit!

-We've learnt a lot

-about the thrush and starling...

-..that the population

-of both birds since the 1970s...

-..has fallen over the years and

-this supports our other surveys.

-It's thanks to people like you and I

-that we've learnt this.

-Has any species of bird thrived

-when you thought it was dwindling?

-A number of birds in the top ten

-were not there in the 1970s.

-One of those is the goldfinch

-which is a beautiful bird.

-The old Welsh name

-is "Teiliwr Llundain."

-You can imagine the Welsh

-seeing this smart looking bird...

-..and thinking that it had been

-to London for its feathers!

-More and more people are now feeding

-birds in their gardens.

-They are thriving but wouldn't have

-been in the top ten in the 1970s.

-There's also the small long-tailed

-tit that suffers in harsh winters...

-..but harsh winters aren't as common

-these days...

-..so they are slowing making

-their way up our top ten every year.

-Are there any birds that remain in

-Britain as opposed to migrating...

-..as a result of our milder winters?

-Yes, the Eurasian blackcap

-is still quite rare...

-..but more and more are remaining

-in our gardens.

-They would arrive in the summer

-with their glorious tweets...

-..before returning to Southern Spain

-or Northern Africa...

-There's a population from Germany

-that remain in Wales all year.

-Those that live in Wales

-still travel to North Africa...

-..but the German birds travel to

-Wales so they must know something!

-It's primarily about birds but you

-also learn about climate change.

-The birds are guiding us

-in the right direction.

-Yes, and Wales is a mining country.

-Miners took canaries into the mines

-to detect any dangerous gases.

-The bird population acts in the same

-way as that canary.

-They are faltering for many reasons

-and that includes climate change.

-The patterns in the populations

-of our garden birds...

-..is reflecting the same issues

-as those in our countryside.

-People will think that this

-all happened over the weekend...

-..but it has been extended

-to the Monday for this year...

-..so people can still take part

-in the birdwatch.

-Yes, and do it quickly

-before the sun goes down.

-Visit our website and download

-our The Big Garden Birdwatch pack...

-..that are available in Welsh.

-Spend an hour watching the birds

-that in our garden.

-I'd also like to thank those

-who have already done the survey.

-It's just as important to let us

-know if you haven't seen anything.

-A lot of people take part,

-see nothing and don't tell us.

-And squirrels.

-Yes, squirrels and mammals and

-all the details are on the website.

-We want to know about all the

-creatures, not just the birds.

-There's a few hours left

-to take part.

-Thank you and we look forward

-to hearing of this year's results.

-For once I'm in the beauty corner.

-It's time for me to

-sort out my beauty regime.

-Emma Jenkins is here with some

-advice on how to treat our skin.

-Welcome to the programme.

-Thank you.

-Many men forget

-to look after the skin.

-It's the biggest organ.

-You should moisturize.

-I don't use moisturizer.

-It will keep you looking young!

-I don't normally look after my skin.

-I've noticed that my skin

-is getting drier.

-I'm indoors for my job but outdoors

-for my Ironman training.

-Does that affect your skin?

-Many men work outdoors.

-They see a difference

-in their skin condition.

-Just use a facewash and moisturizer.

-Your skin can become dry

-if you're outdoors all the time.

-It can start to flake and peel.

-This Bulldog product will inject

-more moisturizer into the skin.

-Do it day and night.

-You have to apply it

-every morning and night.

-Is it expensive?

-It isn't that expensive.

-It's important that you do it.

-Just do it!

-This L'Oreal product

-is great for normal skin.

-Don't scrub the skin.

-Use circular motions

-with your fingertips.

-Circular motion!

-Lather it over the skin.

-Don't strip the skin.

-Don't rub the skin.

-Wash it off and pat dry

-with a towel.

-It can create wrinkles

-and make the skin sensitive.

-Apply moisturizer.

-Owain, you can look shiny!

-The final product is for oily skin.

-Use a moisturizer without oil.

-Face masks are great.

-Face scrubs are great for stubble.

-It prevents ingrowing hairs.

-These scrubs are from Nivea

-and Mancave.

-Scrubs with plastic are banned.

-The grit in the FA Cup scrubs have

-been banned.

-I will have to give these products a

-go.

-Also use hand creams.

-Join us in a couple of minutes.

-Welcome back.

-It's Baked Alaska Day on Wednesday.

-Lisa has a simple method of

-making this classic dessert.

-This dessert seems complicated.

-It's something nuts to cook on TV.

-There are three different types

-of meringue.

-You can use plain sugar.

-You can also use a bain marie.

-There is a also a Swiss and Italian

-meringue.

-There's also a method where you

-prepare beforehand.

-Measure the sugar and water.

-Allow the sugar to melt.

-Check the temperature.

-The temperature reaches 122C.

-I've also got some egg whites.

-The egg whites don't rise

-as well if the bowl isn't clean.

-You don't want any fat

-in the bowl.

-Clean the bowl with some lemon

-to kill any fat or dirt.

-Whisk the eggs.

-Use the food processor.

-Pour the sugar mixture slowly into

-the processor.

-The sugar mixture will cook the

-eggs.

-The secret is to leave the

-processor to run slowly.

-The mixture will cool

-and turn into a meringue.

-The meringue is made.

-You have to keep it whisking.

-The mixture has cooked the eggs.

-It's important to keep your eyes on

-the cooking process.

-You have to serve it immediately.

-Pull the baked Alaska

-out of the oven.

-Drum roll please!

-Let's open it up to see the centre.

-I've never heard of a baked Alaska.

-It's hot outside

-but there's ice cream inside.

-Place the ice cream in some

-clingfilm and place it inside.

-It's lovely!

-You can use an Arctic roll.

-Let's grab a spoon.

-I couldn't find an Arctic roll.

-I've used brioche rolls instead.

-Cover it all with the meringue.

-You need to keep an eye

-on everything.

-Pipe the meringue.

-Mari has joined us

-in the kitchen.

-Don't forget to join us at 7.00pm.
