0:09:02 > 0:09:06- It wasn't a nightmare because - everyone was nice but it was odd.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09- When the first girl asked me, - "Is this your car?"...

0:09:10 > 0:09:12- Did you think it'd be clamped?

0:09:12 > 0:09:15- Yes, - I thought I'd done something wrong.

0:09:15 > 0:09:19- I was about to say, "The hotel said - I could park my car there."

0:09:19 > 0:09:23- This creation happened before me - and my head was all over the shop.

0:09:37 > 0:09:42- I always give them an advent - calendar on December the first.

0:09:42 > 0:09:46- Because we have three children, they - take it in turns to open a window.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50- Do you relive Christmas - through your kids?

0:09:58 > 0:10:02- From the age of four it was my duty - to distribute the presents.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05- Everyone had to sit in a circle.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07- I presented the presents.

0:10:08 > 0:10:09- Under the tree?

0:10:09 > 0:10:11- Under the tree?- - Yes, individually.

0:39:19 > 0:39:21- It's a tie.

0:39:28 > 0:39:32- I'm sure we're all familiar - with Chinese Whispers.

0:39:32 > 0:39:35- I'm not talking about - chocolate from China.

0:39:35 > 0:39:40- The world's ancient legends have - been passed down via oral tradition.

0:39:40 > 0:39:44- There's no telling how close - they stick to the original by now.

0:39:44 > 0:39:49- But if you're a gifted storyteller - and you're a local history buff...

0:39:49 > 0:39:52- ..every good story is worth telling.

0:39:52 > 0:39:56- Believe you me, this next fella - can tell a good story.

0:39:57 > 0:40:00- Wales is steeped - in history and folklore.

0:40:00 > 0:40:04- As a tour guide in Caernarfon, - it's fair to say...

0:40:04 > 0:40:07- ..there's very little - I don't know about the town.

0:40:08 > 0:40:10- My name's Emrys Llewelyn, - I'm a historian.

0:40:11 > 0:40:13- I know everyone who lives here.

0:40:13 > 0:40:16- And they know me too. Alright, Ger?

0:40:16 > 0:40:18- Alright, Linda?

0:40:18 > 0:40:19- Alright.

0:40:20 > 0:40:21- Who's he?

0:40:21 > 0:40:24- No idea - but he's the spit of Plwmsan.

0:40:24 > 0:40:26- Let's go for a cuppa.

0:40:28 > 0:40:34- This is a story - about a very special person...

0:40:34 > 0:40:37- ..who was born - within Caernarfon's town walls...

0:40:37 > 0:40:41- ..though some claim he was born - in a faraway country.

0:40:41 > 0:40:44- # Beside the sea #

0:40:44 > 0:40:47- No, not Anglesey, - but here in the town.

0:40:49 > 0:40:53- His parents - had a big night on the Babycham.

0:40:53 > 0:40:57- In this exact spot. - No, not in a car park.

0:40:58 > 0:41:01- Things like that didn't happen - in Caernarfon back then.

0:41:01 > 0:41:04- This was the site - of Majestic nightclub...

0:41:04 > 0:41:08- ..and though the mother had - done nothing but dance all night...

0:41:08 > 0:41:12- ..nine months later, this wasn't - the only bun in the oven.

0:41:15 > 0:41:19- Her father was unhappy with the news - and told her to skedaddle.

0:41:20 > 0:41:23- This is where they came in - a Ford Cortina - the Celtic Royal.

0:41:23 > 0:41:26- Unfortunately, - there were no vacancies.

0:41:26 > 0:41:31- A busload of tourists had come for a - jolly outing over the Easter break.

0:41:31 > 0:41:34- Easter? That doesn't make any sense.

0:41:36 > 0:41:39- They tried to find room - at the Castle.

0:41:39 > 0:41:42- Not that one, this one.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50- I can proclaim the great news.

0:41:50 > 0:41:53- It was here, - at this drinking stable...

0:41:53 > 0:41:57- ..that the boy was laid down - in a shellsuit and booties.

0:41:57 > 0:42:00- As is customary - in an old town such as this...

0:42:00 > 0:42:04- ..every Tom, Dick and Harry - wanted a peek of the baby.

0:42:04 > 0:42:07- Three Nebo farmers - brought a leg of lamb.

0:42:07 > 0:42:10- Three clever men from the town - came to see the baby.

0:42:10 > 0:42:15- They can be found, though you have - to search far and wide to find them.

0:42:15 > 0:42:21- Anyway, the three wise men brought - a present with them, fair play.

0:42:21 > 0:42:25- 20 quid, a pair of white socks - and Lynx For Men.

0:42:25 > 0:42:27- This tradition remains unchanged.

0:42:34 > 0:42:36- They're tip-top.

0:42:36 > 0:42:41- As my friend said earlier, - this is where baby Jesus was born.

0:42:41 > 0:42:42- Eh?

0:42:42 > 0:42:44- Eh?- - Where baby Jesus was born.

0:42:44 > 0:42:45- What are you talking about?
