-with your health.

-Yes, I had a hysterectomy.

-I've had arthritis in my feet.

-I've had pins put in to my feet.

-It wasn't a good look at all.

-I feel much better now.

-You like to raise money

-for charities.

-Last year, I held a fashion show.

-I've organized many fashion shows to

-raise funds for different charities.

-One was held in Morgans, Swansea

-and we raised money...

-..for the Neonatal

-intensive care unit.

-We raised almost 3,000.

-I've done a lot of things

-to raise money for charities.

-..at Morriston Hospital.

-I'm happy to have anything done.

-I'm grateful to have

-the opportunity.

-Thank you for the welcome.

-Enjoy your day with Huw

-and the team.

-Rhodri Davies is a stone's throw

-away from the studio...

-..at a special ceremony

-to honour a famous Llanelli actress.

-Rhodri, tell us more

-about the ceremony.

-Welcome to Tyisha Road in Llanelli.

-If you live locally, you'll be

-familiar with this blue plaque.

-It's been on display for years.

-But it was officially unveiled

-today...

-..as it's 90 years since

-the birth of Rachel Roberts.

-Who better to unveil it than another

-local acting great - Sharon Morgan.

-You grew up in this area

-and were familiar with her name.

-Yes, and it's a shame that young

-actors today don't know her name.

-That's why it's important

-to have this plaque.

-She was a minister's daughter who

-studied at Aberystwyth and RADA.

-She gained famed in the Sixties

-with films like The Sporting Life.

-She was also an Oscar nominee

-and she married Rex Harrison.

-It was an unhappy marriage.

-She won an Oscar for her role

-the film, Yanks later in her life.

-Tragically, she took her own life

-in 1980 at the age of 53.

-She led a remarkable life

-but was a complicated character.

-Her background

-played a part in this.

-She retaliated against

-the Methodist way of life.

-She grew up in the 1950s and 1960s

-when women's roles were changing.

-It was also a combination

-of being Welsh and English...

-..and falling in love with a life

-of luxury with Rex Harrison.

-Who knows, but she was interesting

-and had a talent for performing.

-She lived a life of luxury and was

-more famous for her personal life.

-She led a wild and crazy lifestyle.

-She was dependant on alcohol

-and drugs from a young age.

-They fed her muse but

-it led to her inability to act.

-The work dried up but she continued

-and then won two Emmys on Broadway.

-She battled against her demons

-but was unsuccessful in the end.

-Was she ahead of her time?

-Yes, she was a confident lady who

-didn't have a care in the world.

-Her public demeanour

-was quite shocking.

-If she was alive today then

-things would have been different.

-Her death was a sad occasion

-which shadowed her life and career.

-Do you think we should re-assess

-this and remember the good times?

-Yes, we should remember

-the good aspects about her...

-..and that's why

-I've done a show about her.

-Her suicide was a reflection of

-a woman's situation at that time.

-Richard Burton was a heavy drinker

-and led a turbulent personal life.

-But we don't condemn him

-like a women would be condemned.

-There are so many good qualities

-to remember about her.

-She was so talented and that's

-how we should remember her.

-Tell us more about the show

-that you have penned.

-It starts next year but I don't

-know where it will be staged yet.

-It will trace Rachel's life.

-Hopefully, it will shed light

-on why a woman of such talent...

-..was compelled to end her life.

-It's wonderful to see you here

-today.

-It's been emotional and exciting.

-There are 50 Blue Plaques

-around the town.

-Take a tour of them one day as each

-of them tell a magnificent story.

-After the break, we chat

-to the pharmacist, Cathy Irons.

-We also take a look at how

-Kathryn's makeover is shaping up.

-See you in a few minutes.

-.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-This week,

-pharmacists all over the country...

-..are welcoming patients to approach

-them with any questions or problems.

-Today, we're joined by our

-very own pharmacist, Cathy Irons.

-Welcome to the studio, Cathy.

-Thank you.

-There's been mention in the press

-about a lady...

-..who travelled on a plane

-with a lot of tablets.

-There's been lots of talk about

-a woman travelling on a plane...

-..with a case full of medication.

-Your pharmacist will be able

-to advise you...

-..if you're going abroad.

-The woman in question

-was carrying Tramadol.

-These are controlled drugs.

-There are strict rules to follow

-when dispensing the tablets.

-Tramadol was prohibited in the

-country she was travelling to.

-You should always ask your

-pharmacist ahead of your trip.

-You could carry them in your

-hand luggage and not in your case.

-The tablets were in her case.

-This woman was carrying

-hundreds of these tablets.

-Visit your pharmacist to ask what

-you can take to certain countries.

-If you're on medication,

-take a copy of your prescription.

-You'll be able to show

-the authorities.

-There are many other things

-you can ask your pharmacist about.

-People are starting to realize that

-the pharmacist offers many services.

-You should visit your pharmacy

-to check what's on offer.

-Many pharmacies can talk through

-your medication.

-They'll be able to reveal

-what they're all for.

-Perhaps they can suggest suitable

-over-the-counter remedies.

-They can offer

-a quit smoking service.

-There's lots of advice

-they can offer.

-Most pharmacies

-have a consultation room.

-Everything you tell the pharmacist

-is confidential.

-You can talk in private

-about any topic.

-We'll always do our best

-to help you.

-You offer over-the-counter remedies

-for winter colds and sore throats.

-At this time of the year, colds

-and sore throats are everywhere.

-The NHS is under lots

-of pressure nowadays.

-There's an increasing amount

-of people who take tablets.

-We sometimes dispense carrier bags

-full of tablets to patients.

-Pharmacists can help with the

-best time to take your tablets.

-There are certain tablets that react

-with foods and drinks...

-..like grapefruit juice.

-We can help the elderly by sorting

-their tablets into packs too.

-There are several ways to help.

-If you have a cold,

-the pharmacist can help.

-Thank you, Cathy.

-Earlier, we met the lucky recipient

-of today's makeover, Kathryn Jago.

-Let's see how she's getting on

-with Huw and his makeover team.

-As you can see,

-the makeover is going well.

-You're cutting the hair, Ruth.

-Yes, but I won't chop off too much.

-Kathryn is worried

-about the condition of her hair.

-You've had an in-depth conversation

-about the how to care for the hair.

-The hair is thinner towards the tips

-so a trim will help strengthen it.

-I'm going to cut the hair shorter

-but it won't be too short.

-The hair gets stronger

-as you work up towards the scalp.

-Yes, the condition towards the root

-is much better.

-The hair is a wonderful colour.

-Yes, and it's her natural colour.

-You will be cutting the hair

-and giving her a transformation.

-After I finish cutting it, I'll

-curl it using the straighteners.

-Let's move on to Patricia

-and the make-up.

-If you have very fair skin, it can

-be difficult to find a foundation.

-Do you have difficulty, Kathryn?

-Yes, because I'm so pale.

-I've worked with several people

-with red hair and very pale skin.

-It's often best to mix two different

-foundations to get the right shade.

-I've been concentrating on getting

-the right foundation for Kathryn.

-Once you get it right,

-the rest of the make-up is easy.

-There's nothing worse than a base

-that's too orange or too yellow.

-Can you mix two different brands

-of foundation?

-Yes, it's completely acceptable

-and that's what I've been doing.

-I've mixed these on my hand

-to see what works for her skin.

-You could mix expensive brands with

-cheaper ones to get the right shade.

-When we're back in the studio,

-the foundation will be perfect.

-Ruth will have transformed the hair

-and I'll pick out a special outfit.

-We look forward to seeing the

-results at the end of the programme.

-Next, it's time to reveal

-what's on tonight's Heno at 7.00pm.

-Yvonne is at the National Wine

-Competition at Llanerch Vineyard.

-Gerallt meets the Llen Natur website

-team to hear about the importance...

-..of protecting Welsh names

-and traditions in nature.

-We also hear a competition to write

-a letter to Father Christmas.

-Don't forget to join Angharad

-for all this and more at 7.00pm.

-After the break, Ann Thomas will

-reveal her life-changing experience.

-Dylan also showcases wines

-from four different countries.

-Join us in a few minutes.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-Our guest, Ann Thomas transformed

-her life by giving up sugar.

-Welcome to the programme, Ann.

-Thank you.

-You're from Pontardawe originally

-but currently reside in Cowbridge.

-We moved there four years ago.

-I live there with my three sons

-and my husband.

-We all enjoy a sweet treat but when

-did it become a problem for you?

-I've always had a sweet tooth.

-I recall buying sweets

-from a young age.

-I was working in a supermarket

-in Pontardawe...

-..and would spend my money

-on sweets in the shop.

-This is where it all started.

-When I was pregnant

-with my eldest son...

-..I didn't want to eat healthy.

-I had a craving for sweet foods.

-I felt tired and got my sugar fix

-to get more energy.

-I swapped good foods

-for sweet treats.

-I became dependant on sugar

-with my other pregnancy.

-I felt tired all the time.

-I would often suffer

-from spikes in my blood sugars.

-How much sugar would you consume?

-Once the children went to bed...

-..I would open a bag

-full of chocolate and sweets.

-I would sit and stuff myself

-with these treats.

-I would go to sleep for nine hours

-and still feel tired the next day.

-It was because I stuffed myself

-with all these sweets.

-Did you give up sugar gradually?

-I visited a naturopath and she said

-that I had to quit sugary foods.

-I went home and decided to stop

-eating sweet foods.

-After two days,

-I was climbing the walls!

-I suffered a week of headaches

-and then I felt slightly better.

-My mood changed and I wouldn't

-snap at the children.

-When I was tired and lacked energy

-I would snap at the change.

-I had to break this routine

-of eating sweet foods.

-Christmas is looming.

-It's a daily battle for me.

-I want every sweet thing

-I see in front of me.

-I try to focus on something else

-to get the craving out of my system.

-I don't know how I will cope

-at Christmas.

-It's important that I eat regularly

-and healthily.

-Thank you for joining us.

-Heno has launched a competition to

-coincide with S4C's Legends Month.

-Here are the details.

-Throughout November,

-the Month of Legends on S4C...

-..Heno is searching

-for the new Gelert of Wales...

-..who is a special dog that will

-capture the hearts of a nation.

-Do you know a heroic,

-brave or faithful dog...

-..or a dog that provides comfort

-or is simply your best friend?

-You can nominate them

-for our competition.

-The winning dog gets a year's supply

-of food from Pero Pet Foods...

-..and a hamper of goods.

-The judges include Sara Manchipp...

-..an ambassador for the RSPCA

-Llys Nini Animal Centre...

-..the vet, Dr Lowri Davies...

-..and Jonathan Rees,

-the manager of Pero Pet Foods.

-The competition closes at midday

-on 14 November.

-Send us a photograph of the dog

-with a few words about it.

-You can email

-[email protected]

-Write to Prynhawn Da, Tinopolis,

-Park Street, Llanelli, SA15 3YE.

-Good luck to you all.

-Your dog could be the new Gelert!

-The Autumn International rugby games

-are a very social period...

-..as with every other rugby match.

-This is our theme today with Dylan.

-He's got wine from each country that

-plays in the Autumn Internationals.

-The most unfamiliar wine here

-is from Georgia.

-Wines from Australia, New Zealand

-and South Africa are familiar to us.

-Shall we start with New Zealand?

-We've got Sauvignon Blanc.

-This variety of grape was introduced

-to the market over 20 years ago.

-Cloudy Bay is a well-known wine

-and it's still on the market.

-But there are so many quality

-Sauvignon Blancs available now.

-It's got a wonderful aroma.

-The New Zealand variety is more

-pungent than the French variety.

-Although Sauvignon Blanc

-is originally from France.

-It's a favourite

-among wine drinkers.

-There are citrus notes.

-Yes, with hints of elderflower,

-gooseberries and similar fruits.

-It's a green grape wine that's

-fresh, acidic, direct and popular.

-I'm not a fan of white wine,

-but this is nice and I like it.

-It's lovely, crisp and clear.

-It's fermented at a cool temperature

-to retain its distinct fruitiness.

-Let's jet over to Australia.

-I think people have gone off

-drinking Chardonnay...

-..as Chardonnays that came from

-Australia years ago were too oaky.

-I don't like oaky Chardonnays.

-Many people say that they don't

-like Chardonnay but like Chablis.

-The grape produces

-a wide-range of wines.

-This is an excellent example of

-a lighter, less oaky Chardonnay...

-..that's easy on the palate

-and a lot more popular.

-Chardonnays usually

-have a more yellow tinge.

-Yes, the colour tends to

-come from the oak barrels.

-The colour forms from the

-burnt oak inside the barrels.

-You're not a fan of Chardonnay

-but what do you think of this?

-This is nice as it's lighter

-and it isn't too oaky.

-It's got 12.5% in alcohol

-and tastes acidic.

-The first one was lovely.

-It was more fresh and fruity.

-That would go down well

-on a fine, sunny day.

-It would be perfect.

-We've got something different

-from Georgia.

-Wine derives from Georgia, the

-South Caucasus and Armenia regions.

-It stems back 8,000 years.

-We hear little about the wine

-from Georgia.

-It's far away

-and their wine-making is different.

-They use qvevri which are

-clay, amphora-like vessels.

-It's custom to place the grapes

-in a clay vessel for fermentation.

-But this wine has also

-been stored in barrels.

-You've got two styles

-of fermentation here.

-The grape is Saperavi

-and it's quite common.

-Not many supermarkets stock wines

-from Georgia but M&S does sell it.

-This bottle comes from Wine Society.

-It's got a lovely aroma.

-Yes, it's smooth.

-That's nice, and I'm the opposite

-of you and not a fan of red wine.

-It's full-bodied and I like it.

-I was worried about your reaction

-as it's quite acidic.

-It leaves a lasting taste.

-Yes, it's quite herby and

-I recommend serving it with food.

-Some Saperavi wines are

-very acidic, dry and tannic.

-It takes years for it

-to become smoother in taste.

-This wine is perfect with some food.

-We need to scour our supermarkets

-as more of it is being introduced.

-I tend to search for unique wines.

-I love and sampled plenty of

-Sauvignon Blancs and Chardonnays.

-But this is different and I look

-forward to seeing them play rugby!

-And our final wine?

-It's a South African,

-full-bodied red wine.

-It's slightly sweet

-but easy on the palate.

-It's robust but easy to drink.

-I can taste the sweet notes.

-The fruit sweetens as it matures.

-I prefer the Georgia wine.

-It's lovely, but isn't as rich.

-That's nice.

-It's easy to drink

-and packed with flavour.

-The fruits are darker,

-so it's more acidic.

-We've sampled the wines from each

-nation in the Autumn Internationals.

-It's a great selection.

-Many will enjoy these wines

-during the rugby season.

-Thank you, Dylan.

-Thank you.

-After the break, we admire

-the ceramic work of Anne Gibbs.

-We also reveal the new Kathryn after

-her makeover with Huw and the girls.

-Join us in a few minutes.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-Angharad Pearce Jones has visited

-Cwmbran's Llantarnam Grange Gallery.

-She admired an exhibition

-of unique crockery there.

-Forget everything you know

-about clay and pottery...

-..because the artist, Anne Gibbs

-pushes the material to new levels...

-..in her new exhibition, Still.

-Anne Gibbs lives and works

-just outside Cardiff.

-She won the gold medal

-at the 2012 National Eisteddfod.

-She's one of Wales'

-leading clay artists.

-This work was inspired by

-a recent research trip to Japan...

-..and her continued interest

-in wildlife.

-The show is part of a series of

-exhibitions associated with clay...

-..that have been curated

-by Ceri Jones.

-When looking at these, I'm reminded

-of Masterchef and Heston Blumenthal.

-They look good enough to eat and

-they're aptly named, Fine Dining.

-These fine hand-built vessels are

-..and it's hard to believe

-that they're made from clay.

-In this display case, there's more

-work inspired by food and nature.

-I can't believe that the sponge-like

-sculpture is made from clay.

-Her palette of white, pink and

-green is displayed at its best here.

-She's been inspired by salmon, rice

-and seaweed on a plate of sushi.

-In this second case,

-we can see the yellow colour...

-..that's been inspired by saffron

-that's used to colour Japanese food.

-Anne Gibbs proves how clay can

-be used to replicate any material.

-There's a also a stick

-that's been perfectly cast.

-You can achieve so much

-with this material.

-In this installation,

-Anne Gibbs plays around...

-..with our understanding

-of everyday materials.

-This piece looks like ribbon

-but it's made from bone china.

-She's included real thread

-in this next piece.

-If you've ever removed wallpaper,

-you'll know it looks like this.

-She's replicated everyday objects

-using clay to play with your mind.

-Japan is a country

-of extreme contrasts.

-There are enormous mountains

-and very small Bonsai trees.

-These three pieces at one end

-of the exhibition showcases this.

-She's used the traditional colours

-of Japan - white, red and black.

-These fine sculptures have been

-staged perfectly on rocky islands.

-These sets of three are rather

-different to the rest of her work.

-They refer to more traditional

-still life subjects.

-and flowers as still life subjects.

-She's also used the clay

-to mimic the look of paper.

-There's a traditional mix of a solid

-vessel and a more organic shape.

-I've been supplied with a feast for

-the eyes by the artist, Anne Gibbs.

-The exhibition has transported me...

-..to the spot where nature, food

-and simple objects meet in art.

-The Still exhibition forces you

-to pause and take notice...

-..which is very rare nowadays.

-Those looked lovely. Kathryn Jago

-joined us for a makeover today.

-Before we reveal the new Kathryn,

-here's a reminder of how she looked.

-Kathryn was casually dressed

-when she came to the studio...

-..and that differs from her

-smart day to day look for work.

-She usually wears a vest or t-shirt,

-boots and jeans.

-With Christmas coming up,

-she wanted a sophisticated look...

-..to coincide with the festivities.

-Let's see how Kathryn looks now.

-You look amazing, Kathryn.

-What do you think of your new look?

-I love it.

-I've had a great time.

-Kathryn has been one of the

-easiest people we've had.

-We've never had awkward people...

-..but Kathryn let us choose

-and do what we wanted.

-We don't usually see a photograph

-of our makeover recipients...

-..but I knew Kathryn from Next.

-It helped me to choose

-this wonderful blouse for her.

-The floral trousers

-are on trend this winter.

-All of the pieces look great.

-She can wear all of these

-at Christmas.

-What have you done to the hair?

-We've cut two inches off the hair...

-..and curled it,

-before placing it up.

-Tell us about the make-up.

-We gave Kathryn

-vampire coloured lips.

-The golds look great

-on people with red hair.

-There's also some green

-around the eyes.

-This outfit is great.

-You can wear the blouse

-over your jeans.

-This look will suit a lot of people.

-As Kathryn organizes many events,

-she can wear this again.

-That's all from us today.

-Tomorrow, Alison takes a look

-at a collection of fondue sets.

-The author, Gerald Morgan

-is our Book Club guest...

-..and Anne Marie

-shows us how to bag a bargain.

-Iolo ac Indiaid America

-follows the news and weather on S4C.

-Until tomorrow,

-have a very good afternoon.

-.
