0:03:57 > 0:03:59- I asked for his autograph.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01- We waited and waited.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- When he came to you, - he saw you, and he was ancient.
0:04:05 > 0:04:10- He drew by revealing white - because he couldn't see colour.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14- He sees you like this. - And then he says...
0:04:14 > 0:04:18- I don't know what he's saying. - He says something in your ear.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21- You nod. He calls you again.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24- And then you nod. - He calls you again.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29- I'm like this, "He's imparting - something fantastic to Sion!"
0:04:29 > 0:04:34- So I said, "Sion, what did he say?" - Can you remember what he said?
0:04:34 > 0:04:35- No.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39- He goes...
0:04:40 > 0:04:43- "..Are you ginger?"
0:04:44 > 0:04:46- And you went, "Yes."
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- And then he said, "Isn't it awful?"
0:04:50 > 0:04:54- And then he goes, - "They do beat you, don't they?"
0:04:55 > 0:04:59- I thought he was - saying something fantastic.
0:04:59 > 0:05:04- He knew because he had been ginger. - His hair was white then.
0:05:05 > 0:05:06- A long time ago.
0:05:06 > 0:05:07- A long time ago.- - Ages ago.
0:05:09 > 0:05:14- I return to the map in my studio, - and Ysgol Cymer.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18- We've already met some - of the pupils.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33- ..between Rhondda Fawr - and Rhondda Fach.
0:05:34 > 0:05:38- Penrhys has experienced - difficult times and negative press.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- Rhian doesn't see it like that.
0:05:41 > 0:05:46- My father was one - of the colliery managers.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51- The miners were offered houses.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55- We lived in a terraced house - in the valley.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59- Mam and Dad decided - to see one of the houses.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- They'd won architectural awards.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05- We thought, "Wow!"
0:06:05 > 0:06:08- We decided to move there.
0:06:08 > 0:06:13- It was clean, the air was pure, - the views were fantastic.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17- There were no coal fires.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19- It was quite modern.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22- Very modern. We had a bathroom!
0:06:23 > 0:06:28- We didn't have to bring - the tub in from the back.
0:06:28 > 0:06:33- We had a toilet in the house, - downstairs and upstairs.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37- It was a "no brainer", - as the pupils say.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39- What sort of community was it?
0:06:39 > 0:06:42- What sort of community was it?- - A close-knit, friendly community.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- Most of the people knew each other.
0:06:46 > 0:06:51- They'd moved from villages - lower down in the valley.
0:06:51 > 0:06:56- They were old friends. It was - like a holiday village to start.
0:06:57 > 0:07:02- But there were problems - with the infrastructure.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07- There was no surgery or chemist.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12- The first thing - that opened was a bookies.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- There were 1,000 residences...
0:07:19 > 0:07:22- ..and people - from diverse backgrounds.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- It was a wonderful place to live.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29- It was fantastic.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- It's true to say - I learnt about life there.
0:07:35 > 0:07:40- Rhian didn't attend - Penrhys Primary School.
0:07:40 > 0:07:45- Rhian's parents were determined to - send her to a Welsh medium school.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49- I was different from - the other children in many ways...
0:07:49 > 0:07:54- ..particularly because - I was going to a Welsh school.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58- Mam's forefathers - were Welsh speakers.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02- Dad's family were, too.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05- They were from West and Mid Wales.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07- Mam, more than anyone...
0:08:07 > 0:08:11- ..wanted my sister and I - to have something they'd lost.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16- When I was growing up, I had - friends who didn't speak Welsh.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20- They thought the Welsh language - and speaking Welsh...
0:08:20 > 0:08:23- ..belonged to the elite.
0:08:24 > 0:08:25- Why?
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- Because so few people - went to the school.
0:08:28 > 0:08:33- It was different. People are wary - of something that's different.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36- It was almost like a private school.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40- Yes. That was the misconception.
0:08:40 > 0:08:45- I wanted people to see - that it was totally normal.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47- The language belongs to them...
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- ..as much as to Welsh speakers.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55- Attitudes have changed.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59- Almost 800 pupils attend - Ysgol Gyfun Cymer.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02- It's "A" level results day.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05- It's "A" level results day.- - It's a bittersweet experience.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09- We're celebrating, - but it's sad to see them leave.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13- It's time they moved on!
0:09:13 > 0:09:16- I didn't set out to be - a head teacher.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18- Good morning, Jordan.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22- I was a Welsh teacher, - and wanted to be a department head.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25- Two "As" and a "B".
0:09:25 > 0:09:30- I had the job, my dream came true. - I was back in the valley.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32- I was happy with that.
0:09:32 > 0:09:37- But my career progressed, - despite myself.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40- Opportunities came my way.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43- I had more responsibilities.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- When the chance came...
0:09:48 > 0:09:51- ..it was a huge honour.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- I think about that every day.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57- I don't take it lightly at all.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03- Congratulations. - The hard work paid off.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05- Thanks for all your support.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08- Thank you. - She's been a credit to you.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11- I have a question for you...
0:10:11 > 0:10:17- ..as someone who lives - in the middle of the valley.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21- Is there a difference - between the two valleys?
0:10:21 > 0:10:22- No!
0:10:22 > 0:10:25- The only difference is the mountain!
0:10:26 > 0:10:29- I come from Rhondda Fawr.
0:10:29 > 0:10:34- People from Rhondda Fach say, - "It's different over here."
0:10:34 > 0:10:36- Over the Fawr!
0:10:36 > 0:10:39- That's parochialism.
0:10:40 > 0:10:45- You get that everywhere, within - two villages in the same valley!
0:10:46 > 0:10:49- I say that about Treherbert!
0:10:50 > 0:10:53- The common denominator is pride...
0:10:54 > 0:10:57- ..pride in the sense of belonging.
0:10:57 > 0:11:02- They're proud of coming from - Rhondda Fach or Rhondda Fawr.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- When they join forces, - it's incredible.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20- # If you're happy, shout hooray! #
0:11:21 > 0:11:22- Hooray!
0:11:22 > 0:11:24- # If you're happy, shout hooray! #
0:11:24 > 0:11:25- Hooray!
0:11:26 > 0:11:28- Come on then.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30- Oh!

0:11:58 > 0:12:00- He performs all over Britain.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04- But he finds a lot - of his material in the Rhondda.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08- Are you a comedian - who tells jokes or stories?
0:12:08 > 0:12:09- Stories.
0:12:11 > 0:12:15- I did a gig in Neath before going - to the Edinburgh Fringe this year.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18- It was the last gig before that.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20- There was an old man there...
0:12:20 > 0:12:25- ..who was basically totally - deadpan for twenty minutes.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27- After the gig, he said...
0:12:27 > 0:12:31- "..I like what you do. - I can see what you're trying to do.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34- "Have you ever thought - of doing like, jokes?"
0:12:35 > 0:12:38- I studied English - after leaving school.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41- Then I taught for two years.
0:12:42 > 0:12:47- At that time, I began - to have gigs on the circuit.
0:12:48 > 0:12:49- That built up.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53- It started off as a hobby. - Now I can live off it.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58- Do you remember trying to write - things on Microsoft Word?
0:12:58 > 0:13:02- If you made a mistake, - a paperclip came round.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04- It said, "Hello!" - It spoke a bit camp.
0:13:05 > 0:13:06- LAUGHTER
0:13:06 > 0:13:07- I know!
0:13:08 > 0:13:10- "Are you trying to write?"
0:13:10 > 0:13:15- "Yes, I'm trying to work. - What are you doing? I'm busy."
0:13:15 > 0:13:20- "There's nothing wrong, but - you wrote that word incorrectly."
0:13:20 > 0:13:22- "Don't worry, I'll sort it".
0:13:22 > 0:13:27- "I'll put a big red line under it, - then you can carry on working."
0:13:27 > 0:13:28- And off he goes!
0:13:29 > 0:13:33- It's difficult to write - and find inspiration.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36- Oh god, it sounds - such a pretentious act.
0:13:36 > 0:13:41- My inspiration is looking - out of the window on the rain!
0:13:43 > 0:13:45- I've tried hard over the years...
0:13:45 > 0:13:48- ..to turn mundane things - into something.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52- Comedians like - to take a boring thing...
0:13:53 > 0:13:55- ..and make something out of it.
0:13:55 > 0:14:01- For example, Michael McIntyre can - talk about a door and make it funny.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02- It takes skill.
0:14:03 > 0:14:07- Why does a paperclip - give an opinion about literature?
0:14:07 > 0:14:11- Its job is clipping paper, - not offering literary opinions!
0:14:12 > 0:14:16- Loads of comedians go on - about wanting to be the big man.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19- "I'm funny, you're the audience."
0:14:20 > 0:14:21- There's a barrier.
0:14:22 > 0:14:27- I like the idea of the comedian - who comes from the community...
0:14:27 > 0:14:29- ..and is honest on stage.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32- Rather than create a barrier...
0:14:32 > 0:14:36- ..they bring themselves down - and say, "I'm just like you.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39- "These are stories - about my life here."
0:14:39 > 0:14:42- Because I grew up here...
0:14:42 > 0:14:47- ..if I do gigs, I think people - feel they connect to me better.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50- It's the only place - I like hecklers, actually.
0:14:50 > 0:14:54- Anywhere else, - I have to put them down.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58- But when I gig back here - in Ponty or Porth...
0:14:59 > 0:15:03- ..the heckles are - funnier than what I say!
0:15:03 > 0:15:05- It adds to the set.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08- It's really nice coming back.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10- It's like high class banter.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12- That's what I call it.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15- It might be my turn - to make you laugh now.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18- I'm looking forward to that.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20- Should I look forward?
0:15:21 > 0:15:22- Come on, then.
0:15:24 > 0:15:25- Oh!
0:15:25 > 0:15:27- LAUGHTER
0:15:28 > 0:15:29- That's offensive!
0:15:29 > 0:15:31- No, it's good.
0:15:31 > 0:15:35- It looks really good. - I like it, especially the eyes.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37- You've caught the crow's feet.
0:15:38 > 0:15:42- It looks like a dog - that turned into a man.
0:15:44 > 0:15:45- Like Woof!
0:15:56 > 0:16:01- Hannah Griffiths and James Saunders - are Rhondda born and bred.

0:16:21 > 0:16:23- All the family is in this street.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42- I haven't met - all the family. It's huge!
0:16:42 > 0:16:44- You have!
0:16:44 > 0:16:46- Poppy's first passport.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49- Are you from Tylorstown too?
0:16:49 > 0:16:52- Not originally. I'm a bit - of a Traveling Wilbury.

0:18:27 > 0:18:32- I go to charity shops or Too Good - To Waste and buy things there.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36- I do them up. I upcycle them.
0:18:36 > 0:18:37- Right!
0:18:38 > 0:18:40- Like Poppy's table and chairs.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43- She always got felts on things.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46- I covered them in Fablon.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51- There's quite a lot of pink.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45- LAUGHTER
0:19:45 > 0:19:50- I'd say that James and Hannah's main - job is looking after Poppy...
0:19:51 > 0:19:55- ..and keeping her still long enough - for me to draw her picture.
0:19:59 > 0:20:00- Wow!
0:20:02 > 0:20:04- Amazing!
0:20:06 > 0:20:07- Wow!
0:20:07 > 0:20:09- Wow!- - Poppy's exactly like that!
0:20:09 > 0:20:10- GIGGLES
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- Poppy looks amazing. Look, it's you!
0:20:13 > 0:20:14- Poppy looks amazing. Look, it's you!- - It's you!
0:20:15 > 0:20:16- LAUGHTER
0:20:16 > 0:20:18- It's excellent.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26- I'm back in Treorchy's High Street.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29- This time, I have company.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33- In September, 2015, - Eira Lily Owen came to the world...
0:20:33 > 0:20:36- ..a little daughter - for Becky and me.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40- She's one of the Rhondda's - next generation.
0:20:55 > 0:21:00- Everyone says that - their children are stonking.
0:21:00 > 0:21:01- But she's lovely.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03- It's quite odd.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06- I think she's absolutely stonking...
0:21:06 > 0:21:08- ..but she looks exactly like me.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10- CHUCKLES
0:21:10 > 0:21:12- Which is odd.
0:21:14 > 0:21:19- It's so odd to think that - you have to look after everything.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- Anything she does, - you have to look after her.
0:21:24 > 0:21:25- It's interesting.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29- We've been walking round...
0:21:29 > 0:21:34- ..going all over the valley - and meeting people of all ages.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38- We've met characters.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41- I have a little one now.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44- I introduce her to everyone...
0:21:45 > 0:21:49- ..and show her the valley, - as a newcomer.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54- We've been walking - a lot more than usual...
0:21:54 > 0:21:56- ..going round with the pram.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04- She sees things - for the first time...
0:22:05 > 0:22:10- ..and we see things in a different - way, because Eira is with us.
0:22:10 > 0:22:11- Which is good.
0:22:11 > 0:22:12- No more?
0:22:25 > 0:22:27- EIRA SOUNDS CONTENTED
0:22:43 > 0:22:48- At the start, I said I wanted - to make a new map of the Rhondda.
0:22:48 > 0:22:52- I've realized that it's not me - who makes the map really...
0:22:53 > 0:22:55- ..but the people themselves.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00- The map changes daily.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03- That's what a living community is.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07- Although the place isn't perfect, - it is unique...
0:23:07 > 0:23:09- ..like the Rhondda's people.
