-Hello and welcome to your

-Thursday edition of Prynhawn Da.

-We've got another jam-packed

-programme for you today.

-Yes, and it starts on the catwalk

-with Huw.

-What have you got for us today?

-We've got an array of statement

-pieces for various occasions.

-People often look for

-an entire outfit...

-..but today, we've got just

-the statement pieces.

-This is what else

-we have for you today.

-Catrin Reynolds

-visits Mwnt in Ceredigion...

-..to view an incredible shed

-that is a brand-new business.

-The musician and broadcaster,

-Alwyn Humphreys joins us...

-..to chat about his many concerts

-in the lead up to Christmas.

-Tomorrow is World Prematurity Day...

-..so we hear about Llewelyn who

-was just over 1lb when he was born.

-World Prematurity Day is also our

-topic in the surgery with Dr Ann.

-This affects one in every

-ten children in the world.

-Join Owain and me over the next

-50 minutes for today's Prynhawn Da.

-We start the programme on the

-Prynhawn Da catwalk with Huw.

-Today, you're looking

-at statement pieces.

-Hayley isn't wearing

-this garment by accident.

-I've been wanting to include

-this jacket for many weeks.

-It always catches my eye when

-I've been to Marks and Spencer.

-This jacket makes

-a real statement...

-..but there's also

-a matching bag and skirt...

-..but it's too matchy-matchy!

-It's a very striking

-and dramatic jacket.

-People will remember this item...

-..so a lot of people will know

-if you're wearing it a lot!

-There's also a polo neck jumper.

-It's only 17.50.

-This is great.

-It's a real staple.

-This skirt was worn by Bethan Mair

-on yesterday's Prynhawn Da.

-It feels like leather.

-It's quite an odd feeling

-when you wear it.

-This is the best shaped skirt in

-the history of Marks and Spencer.

-We've seen it all sorts of fabrics.

-It's very stylish.

-You can change the colours

-to match the jacket.

-Christine is our next model.

-I hope you will spot

-the statement piece.

-It's the floral skirt.

-You can get floral skirts

-and trousers...

-..in the build up to Christmas.

-I was told by the manager...

-..that this skirt should be worn

-with nude colours.

-I think that's a real cop out!

-I'll never wear my nude shoes again.

-You can wear this out at night.

-A lady in the shop said that

-I knew better than the manager!

-People are wearing all sorts

-of fabrics during the day...

-..and don't keep them

-for the evening.

-Marks and Spencer

-has a pyjama jacket...

-..so it's very fashionable.

-Our final model is Hannah.

-Once again,

-we have a statement skirt.

-The jacket could also be

-a statement piece.

-I didn't want satin or velvet

-with this skirt.

-You could wear this skirt

-for Christmas.

-We went to River Island

-to get Hannah's outfit.

-The jacket is 68.

-This colour is great for the autumn.

-A bright colour is ideal

-for a dull day.

-You could wear it

-to the Wales rugby matches!

-The skirt is 48.

-It's full of sequins.

-I remember the sequin dresses

-from a few years ago...

-..that were over 800!

-You don't have to opt for a

-special dress for a Christmas party.

-You can wear this skirt

-with all sorts of things.

-Some businesses can start by chance.

-This was true for Dyfed Symmons

-and Christine Linfoot-Symmons.

-Their wedding day was the platform

-for launching a brand new venture.

-Catrin Reynolds has the story.

-Mwnt is a hidden cove

-on the coast of Ceredigion.

-It's famous for its stunning views

-and a great place to spot dolphins.

-There's also its ancient church.

-One site near the beach is earning

-a reputation as a must-see.

-It's just over there

-and called The Shed.

-There's an interesting story

-behind this brand-new venture.

-This is a shed to host weddings,

-parties or whatever you want.

-How did it all start?

-I was getting married and am not

-a fan of weddings in hotels...

-..so we chose the shed!

-In April, it was still home to

-my father-in-law's sheep and cattle.

-We asked the cattle nicely

-to vacate the spot.

-They left in April so that

-I could come in with the concrete.

-It was quite an undertaking

-but it kept me out of mischief.

-I built the bar and benches.

-I didn't like zinc sheets on the

-walls so covered them in plywood...

-..and built a stage

-for the band and DJ.

-People were expecting the wedding

-to be in a cold shed...

-..but it was a real eye-opener

-for them all when they arrived.

-Dyfed was exceptionally busy but his

-wife, Christine kept him in check.

-It was lovely to have such nice

-comments from our wedding guests.

-They thought we should keep it

-and do some events over the summer.

-We didn't realize it would be such

-a busy summer and it was brilliant.

-It hasn't lost its character

-but suits its surroundings.

-Yes, we've kept it as rustic

-as possible...

-..and in-keeping with Mwnt and the

-surrounding area.

-There's even a sheep feeding rack

-around our exterior fire...

-..so everything is how it should be.

-What has the response been like

-from the locals and holiday makers?

-I think they expect a cattle shed as

-opposed to what we've created here.

-Whether you have a wedding, a party,

-a Noson Lawen or pizza night...

-..this latest attraction in Mwnt

-is ready to welcome you.

-Mwnt is a perfect location

-so we'll wait and see what happens.

-We hope to host a few weddings

-and will go from there.

-I'll build my father-in-law a new

-shed or the animals will be back!

-Good luck to them.

-After the break, we chat with the

-maestro himself, Alwyn Humphreys.

-First, Viv Watkins wants us to

-guess the purpose of her antique.

-Join us in a few minutes.

-Can you guess what this is?

-It's a piece of wood

-from the 1920s or 1930s...

-..with two split sections

-on the side and a long handle.

-Join us after the break

-when I'll reveal what it is.

-.

-Subtitles

-Did you guess what it is?

-It's a football clacker

-from the 1920s.

-This is very collectible

-and worth about 20.

-Welcome back to Prynhawn Da.

-Thanks to Viv for revealing

-the purpose of that antique.

-Yes, it was a football clacker.

-Did you have one of those, Owain?

-No, I don't.

-I recall the ones that spun around.

-They made a lot of noise!

-I thought it was a castanet!

-I'm sure you're familiar

-with those clackers...

-..as a fan of the

-Welsh National Football Team...

-..and uncle of Osian Roberts.

-I am proud of my nephew, Osian.

-He's my sister's son.

-I was at the game on Tuesday.

-It was close until the last minute.

-I'm a football pundit now

-because of Osian.

-I've heard the singing has improved

-at the games now!

-Have you got many concerts

-between now and Christmas?

-There's a Cymanfa Ganu service at

-Llandaff Cathedral on 19 November.

-It's full of scandal.

-We hear music from the composers.

-The show is x-rated

-if not xxx-rated!

-Is there a story that's appropriate

-to be revealed on Prynhawn Da?

-I couldn't reveal anything

-on this programme today!

-Book a ticket!

-Next year's Eisteddfod

-will be quite different.

-It will be held

-at the Millennium Centre.

-It's set to be an exciting week.

-I won't miss the mud!

-I recall a wet Eisteddfod

-at Fishguard.

-It doesn't matter if it rains

-in the Bay.

-You can hide in a pub nearby

-or go and listen to some music!

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-Tomorrow is World Prematurity Day.

-This affects one in every

-ten children around the world.

-Let's hear the story of Llewelyn

-who is now nine years old...

-..but was only 1lb and 14oz

-when he was born.

-Llewelyn was our first baby and

-we didn't quite know what to expect.

-I thought that everything

-was going well...

-..until an appointment

-with my midwife at 32 weeks.

-My blood pressure was very high

-so I was taken to hospital.

-Whilst there, I didn't realize what

-was wrong until the next morning.

-They told me that it was time

-to deliver the baby via caesarean.

-My baby had stopped growing

-at 26 weeks.

-When he was delivered, we discovered

-that he weighed 1lb 14 ounces.

-He should've weighed much more

-at 32 weeks.

-He was immediately taken

-to the special care unit.

-I couldn't go to see him but

-my husband took a photograph of him.

-It was a very difficult time.

-After three days, I was allowed

-to visit and cuddle him.

-It was the best feeling

-in the world.

-We didn't discover Llewelyn's

-growth problem until he was four.

-That's when we learnt

-of his low growth hormone.

-Every year, a doctor at the hospital

-keeps an eye on his growth.

-There are problems

-associated with a premature birth.

-Llewelyn was slower

-to walk and talk.

-One year ago, we discovered that

-Llewelyn also had hearing problems.

-That's due to nerve damage

-because of his premature birth.

-When Llewelyn was in the reception

-class, he missed lots of school.

-However, he's a determined character

-and fantastic to have in class.

-He's very likeable

-and he loves to praise others.

-Llewelyn is a humorous character

-and he makes everyone laugh.

-He praises everyone.

-When someone needs help,

-Llewelyn always explains clearly.

-He's also determined to succeed

-when doing his schoolwork.

-He wants everything to be right.

-At school, his premature birth

-hasn't affected his work.

-We have lots of fun

-in Miss Voyle's class.

-I like playing different games

-and participating in sports.

-I also like playing with my friends.

-He's a member of the school choir

-and recites at the Urdd Eisteddfod.

-He's also been part

-of the book quiz team...

-..who reached the national final

-in Aberystwyth, last year.

-He always contributes

-during language and sports lessons.

-Llewelyn enjoys disco dancing

-and he loves singing.

-When I've had enough of a game,

-Llew will offer to play another one.

-When we're playing,

-he can be very funny.

-He makes everyone laugh

-with his jokes.

-He enjoys playing with friends

-and makes sure everyone is involved.

-Llewelyn lives next door

-and we enjoy playing games together.

-I don't like homework

-because it's too much work.

-He's a very sociable character

-and he gets on with all the pupils.

-Llewelyn is my best friend.

-He's a happy child.

-He's also very determined

-and that's why he's still here.

-That was a lovely story

-with a wonderful and happy ending.

-Dr Ann has joined us

-to highlight this issue.

-A wonderful story, Dr Ann.

-His story is heart-warming.

-Llewelyn's story showed us

-that our doctors can work miracles.

-It's incredible what's available

-for premature babies now.

-Premature birth is now classed

-as 34 weeks and not 38 weeks.

-The mother's health led to

-Llewelyn's early birth.

-Let's focus on the mother first

-and the mother's body.

-The mother's body is all-important.

-If there's bleeding

-or if the mucus plug is lost...

-..there is reason for concern.

-Pains like period cramps

-or the loss of amniotic fluid...

-..should also be a cause of concern.

-If you experience any,

-phone an ambulance.

-A mother may be put on steroids

-to safeguard the baby's health.

-At what point do the organs develop?

-When a mother is up

-to 32 weeks pregnant...

-..a premature birth

-can be dangerous.

-A premature birth up to 38 weeks

-can also be dangerous.

-Anwen had Eclampsia.

-Her blood pressure was too high

-to continue with a safe pregnancy.

-Is this a hereditary condition?

-Eclampsia is hereditary.

-It's normally only seen if

-you're pregnant for the first time.

-It's more common if there's

-more than one baby in the womb.

-You also were a premature baby,

-Dr Ann.

-I only weighed 2lbs 7 ounces

-when I was born.

-That was a very long time ago!

-There are millions

-of premature babies.

-There are 60,000 premature births

-every year in this country.

-Around 1,000 babies die

-because of premature birth.

-What factors cause this condition?

-Diabetes can be a cause

-for premature birth.

-High blood pressure

-can also be a cause.

-Smoking and alcohol

-also raises the risk.

-If you're resting excessively,

-you can also experience problems.

-You may be prescribed progesterone

-pessaries from your doctor.

-It all depends

-how early you go into labour.

-What is the process after the birth?

-It's important that the

-baby's lungs are developed.

-If a baby is born very early...

-..there can be problems

-with the eyes and ears.

-The brain is very fragile

-when a baby is in the womb.

-A premature baby

-may not reach milestones...

-..at the same rate

-as other children.

-However, there are so many

-developments in medicine.

-Women are now more aware of

-when to seek medical advice.

-Tomorrow raises awareness

-of this condition.

-There's a Bliss website

-to get more information.

-The website offers great advice

-for mothers of premature babies.

-There's also a support group

-for mothers.

-Thank you, Dr Ann.

-On a personal note, I'd like to

-thank the Pontypridd Merched y Wawr.

-They welcomed me with open arms and

-we had a great night last Thursday.

-We chatted about the weather

-and a whole lot more.

-Happy birthday to the group

-as it marks 50 years.

-Hello to you all and thank you for

-being avid viewers of Prynhawn Da.

-After the break, Huw returns

-with more statement pieces.

-Join us in a few minutes.

-.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-We close the programme

-on the Prynhawn Da catwalk with Huw.

-Remind us of today's theme.

-Today, it's all about

-statement pieces for your wardrobe.

-We start with Hannah.

-This jacket is very interesting.

-She can give us a good shake.

-You've got to move

-to create this look.

-I think Yvonne can wear it

-for our work's party.

-This is ideal

-with jeans and boots...

-..and for an evening drink.

-This jacket

-isn't going to match everything.

-The blouse is sold

-beside the jacket.

-I don't always advise that...

-..but this was a perfect match.

-The jacket is 60.

-It's 35 for the blouse.

-The fabric is very interesting.

-There's a sheen to the fabric.

-It's a lovely shape.

-You cannot wear this

-instead of a short fur coat...

-..as it won't keep you warm.

-It's important

-to care for this piece...

-..and clean it properly.

-Store it properly too.

-Any items that has

-a specific design and detail...

-..will snag on other items.

-It's important for this

-to sit properly when you store it.

-Christine is our next model.

-This is a simple jumper and skirt.

-This skirt

-is similar to leatherette.

-This skirt is in a crushed velvet.

-Team this with an interesting top.

-It's sold with some great items

-that are reminiscent of the 1970s.

-You could wear it

-with an array of things...

-..so that it isn't

-such a strong look.

-It reminds me of curtains

-from my childhood!

-I was filming in a grand hotel

-in Cardiff recently.

-They did have similar curtains

-to this skirt.

-We close with Hayley.

-The coat is our statement piece.

-This is an interesting coat.

-It's a shearling coat.

-Hayley can show us that we've

-teamed it with a simple top...

-..and trousers.

-This coat

-will come in and out of fashion.

-Wear it all the time at the moment.

-Forget about it for a while...

-..and bring it back out

-when it's back in fashion.

-At the moment, there's a lot

-of different fur coats around.

-The coat is 79.99.

-It's a lot of money for a coat.

-It does keep you warm.

-Thank you, Huw.

-Tomorrow, Lisa rustles up a suitable

-fish dish for Christmas Day.

-The Gossip Girls

-put the world to rights.

-One viewer could win 100 or more

-in our quiz, Mwy Neu Lai.

-There's another chance to see Gwlad

-Moc after the S4C news and weather.
