-Welcome to you all to Wyt Ti'n Gem?

0:00:290:00:31

-We're in the Rhosllannerchrugog

-and Ruthin area.

0:00:310:00:35

-They tell me there are

-many chapels in this region...

0:00:350:00:39

-..which reminds me of a bloke who

-got lost on an island far from here.

0:00:390:00:43

-He spent three years there.

0:00:430:00:45

-When they found him,

-he'd built two chapels.

0:00:460:00:49

-When they asked him

-why he'd built two...

0:00:490:00:52

-..he said, "Well, I had to have one

-I never went to."

0:00:520:00:56

-I used to go to Sunday school

-and chapel as a child.

0:01:010:01:04

-I was there one Sunday

-when a new minister had arrived.

0:01:040:01:08

-The minister went up to the pulpit

-and he was only five foot two.

0:01:080:01:12

-So he's in the pulpit

-and starts to preach.

0:01:130:01:16

-He said,

-"I am the light of the world."

0:01:160:01:18

-A lady at the back shouted, "Turn up

-the wick so we can see you, then!"

0:01:190:01:24

-I've been told that the people

-of Rhos like a bit of nonsense.

0:01:290:01:34

-Let's see if that's true.

0:01:340:01:36

-Take a look at this.

0:01:360:01:38

-Hello. Can you hold this for

-a moment? I'm popping to the shop.

0:01:460:01:49

-Thank you very much.

0:01:500:01:52

-Can you hold these for a moment?

-I'm just popping to the shop.

0:01:520:01:57

-Thank you.

0:01:590:02:00

-Balloons!

0:02:130:02:16

-Where are the balloons?

0:02:160:02:18

-Where are the balloons?

-

-I don't know.

0:02:180:02:20

-Balloons!

0:02:250:02:27

-I can't believe that.

-He was off his head, though.

0:02:370:02:40

-Off his head?

0:02:410:02:42

-Who's our first guest tonight?

0:02:480:02:50

-I could talk for hours about

-how much this man has achieved...

0:02:500:02:55

-..but I'd have to talk

-very, very slowly.

0:02:550:02:57

-Having said that, he has

-so much to say about himself...

0:02:580:03:01

-..he'd fill in the gaps himself!

0:03:010:03:04

-Please welcome Stifyn Parri.

0:03:040:03:06

-Welcome, Stifyn.

0:03:140:03:16

-Welcome, Stifyn.

-

-It's the battle of the blouses!

0:03:160:03:18

-At least

-we don't look like brothers.

0:03:180:03:21

-Welcome to the show.

0:03:220:03:24

-You're one of the most famous people

-to come out of Rhos, aren't you?

0:03:240:03:29

-There are lots of people -

-Dyfed Thomas...

0:03:290:03:32

-..Mark Lewis Jones...

0:03:320:03:34

-..Hollywood star Meredith Edwards.

0:03:350:03:37

-..Hollywood star Meredith Edwards.

-

-I've heard of him.

0:03:370:03:39

-And me!

0:03:400:03:42

-A lot of your work nowadays...

0:03:420:03:45

-..involves arranging events...

0:03:460:03:50

-..for organisations and companies.

0:03:500:03:52

-I'd been to

-many poorly-run events...

0:03:530:03:55

-..where there was no order

-and no-one knew what was happening.

0:03:560:04:00

-I remember thinking, I'm sure

-I can do better than this...

0:04:000:04:04

-..so I came up with

-an obvious name - Mr Producer...

0:04:040:04:09

-..and we were given brilliant jobs.

0:04:090:04:12

-Because of Stifyn's experience...

0:04:120:04:15

-..Theatr y Stiwt in Rhos,

-celebrating its 90th anniversary...

0:04:150:04:19

-..needed his advice

-to organize a celebratory event.

0:04:190:04:23

-Watch this.

0:04:230:04:25

-Stifyn Parri is famous

-as a presenter, actor, singer...

0:04:250:04:29

-..and entertainer and is one of

-Rhosllannerchrugog's famous sons.

0:04:290:04:34

-He's also a producer,

-responsible for promoting...

0:04:340:04:37

-..Wales' major events, such as the

-Ryder Cup Welcome to Wales concert.

0:04:370:04:43

-Theatr y Stiwt is celebrating

-its 90th anniversary this year...

0:04:430:04:49

-..so who better to discuss ideas...

0:04:490:04:53

-..on how to boost the Stiwt's

-profile than Mr Producer himself?

0:04:530:04:58

-Stifyn believes that Hywel Morris,

-our creative director...

0:04:580:05:02

-..is working for the Stiwt.

0:05:020:05:04

-Let's see how he reacts to Hywel's

-plans for the event and for Stifyn.

0:05:050:05:10

-We've come up with

-a couple of ideas.

0:05:110:05:13

-One of them is balloons, and because

-of your association with Rhos...

0:05:130:05:20

-..we thought of having your face...

0:05:200:05:23

-..printed on 90 balloons.

0:05:240:05:26

-And you've chosen

-a photo of the fat me!

0:05:270:05:30

-Do you like that?

0:05:300:05:32

-Do you like that?

-

-No.

0:05:320:05:34

-What will you do with them?

0:05:340:05:36

-What will you do with them?

-

-Release them during the celebration.

0:05:360:05:38

-We'll release 90 balloons.

0:05:390:05:41

-We'll release 90 balloons.

-

-With my face on them?

0:05:410:05:43

-You're Rhos's most famous export.

0:05:440:05:47

-You could do a publicity stunt,

-where I release the balloons...

0:05:470:05:51

-..but there's no point

-having my face on them.

0:05:520:05:55

-If you're unhappy

-about the balloons, how about this?

0:05:550:05:59

-How about the picture?

0:05:590:06:01

-I thought of putting up

-a picture of you in the theatre...

0:06:020:06:06

-..as a collier.

0:06:070:06:09

-Excuse the ears.

0:06:090:06:11

-Everything I've done

-to raise Rhos's profile...

0:06:120:06:17

-..things like this...

0:06:180:06:20

-..are really going to undermine

-everything I've tried to do.

0:06:200:06:25

-My father was a collier,

-so put up a picture of him...

0:06:250:06:29

-..not of me with big ears.

0:06:290:06:31

-..not of me with big ears.

-

-How about a statue, then?

0:06:310:06:33

-Of you as a collier.

0:06:350:06:37

-We want to capture Rhos's history.

0:06:370:06:40

-The statue could be erected outside.

0:06:400:06:44

-Or we could place the statue

-inside the theatre...

0:06:450:06:49

-..where you came as a child.

0:06:490:06:51

-..where you came as a child.

-

-Why not give me the statue...

0:06:510:06:53

-..and I'll set it alight -

-that might be better.

0:06:530:06:56

-Don't you like it?

0:06:570:06:59

-I don't

-understand the logic behind it.

0:06:590:07:02

-Oh, dear! Third time lucky, perhaps?

0:07:020:07:06

-How about one

-that's not so historical?

0:07:060:07:10

-More of a showbiz pose.

0:07:100:07:12

-More of a showbiz pose.

-

-Is that showbiz?

0:07:120:07:14

-Yes. Do you have a showbiz pose?

0:07:140:07:16

-I've a showbiz pose

-that's nothing like this.

0:07:170:07:19

-This is my showbiz pose.

0:07:200:07:22

-Having

-something like this outside...

0:07:220:07:26

-..would stop anyone

-purchasing a ticket for any event.

0:07:260:07:31

-0 out of 10 for that.

0:07:320:07:35

-Whoever thought of this...

0:07:350:07:38

-Marged and I thought of that.

0:07:380:07:39

-Marged and I thought of that.

-

-I don't want to be rude...

0:07:390:07:41

-..but I've had

-better ideas in my sleep.

0:07:420:07:44

-I'd rather be on a balloon.

0:07:440:07:47

-So the balloons...?

0:07:480:07:49

-So the balloons...?

-

-No, I was joking!

0:07:490:07:50

-The last thing I wanted to discuss

-was a financial contribution.

0:07:510:07:55

-People

-have been incredibly generous.

0:07:560:08:00

-People from Rhos.

0:08:000:08:02

-Mark Lewis Jones, Dyfed Thomas

-and his daughter, Alys...

0:08:020:08:06

-They've contributed, have they?

0:08:060:08:09

-They've contributed, have they?

-

-Yes, and I was going to ask you...

0:08:090:08:11

-..if you'd consider contributing

-something towards the costs.

0:08:110:08:15

-A donation? For these ideas?

-Not a single penny.

0:08:160:08:19

-Hold on. You've gone too far.

0:08:200:08:24

-Nothing.

0:08:240:08:25

-I'd contribute

-towards a good idea...

0:08:260:08:28

-..or I'd give up my time to arrange

-a concert or present something...

0:08:290:08:34

-..but I'm not going to

-part with any cash for someone...

0:08:340:08:38

-..to put my ugly, big,

-hairy, fat face on a balloon.

0:08:380:08:42

-And definitely not for this or this.

0:08:430:08:47

-Take a look at this payment plan,

-just to get an idea.

0:08:480:08:51

-You want cash?

0:08:520:08:53

-Stifyn Parri, how are you?

0:08:540:08:56

-Before you came on the show

-I wanted to see if you were game.

0:08:560:09:00

-Enjoy your day.

0:09:000:09:02

-You wait!

0:09:030:09:05

-I've never heard

-so many dreadful ideas in one block!

0:09:060:09:10

-Don't you

-have better things to do than this?

0:09:130:09:16

-Shouldn't you be playing rugby or

-football or whatever it is you do?

0:09:160:09:20

-BLEEP

0:09:200:09:22

-Cut!

0:09:260:09:28

-Playing rugby or football?

-I referee.

0:09:330:09:36

-Whatever!

0:09:360:09:38

-You've been associated with the

-Stiwt since you were a young boy.

0:09:380:09:43

-It's the first theatre I went to,

-that's where I spent every Saturday.

0:09:430:09:48

-It was the heart of the community,

-I joined the am-drams...

0:09:490:09:52

-..which was Aelwyd y Rhos...

0:09:520:09:54

-..and from the age of five or six

-I went twice a week...

0:09:550:09:58

-..and sat in the director's chair -

-he didn't like me at all.

0:09:590:10:02

-He never gave me a part but I knew

-every word, so I prompted the cast.

0:10:030:10:07

-I stayed in the wings

-during the shows.

0:10:070:10:11

-It was a fantastic experience.

0:10:110:10:13

-Being a member of the Urdd was

-as good as going to drama college.

0:10:130:10:19

-You organized one of the biggest

-concerts for the Ryder Cup.

0:10:190:10:25

-Yes, the opening ceremony

-and the ceremony on the field...

0:10:250:10:29

-..where they

-hit that little ball with a stick.

0:10:290:10:32

-Where they what?

0:10:330:10:36

-Hit the ball with a stick.

0:10:360:10:38

-You golfers are enjoying this!

0:10:380:10:41

-I was in a boardroom

-with American and Welsh legends...

0:10:410:10:45

-..discussing the Ryder Cup and

-they started naming various people.

0:10:450:10:50

-They mentioned Arnold Palmer.

0:10:500:10:53

-I thought,

-how do they know Arnold Palmer?

0:10:530:10:57

-For me, Arnold Palmer was a

-short man who lived in Prestatyn...

0:10:580:11:03

-..and ran a crazy golf course.

0:11:030:11:06

-When I went on holiday to Prestatyn

-with my family during the summer...

0:11:060:11:10

-..if it was raining, we went to

-the Arnold Palmer crazy golf course.

0:11:110:11:15

-We were sitting at this table

-and I thought, this man's done well!

0:11:150:11:20

-I had to confess in the end,

-but it was a brilliant job.

0:11:220:11:26

-Thank you very much, Stifyn

-You're always game for a laugh.

0:11:260:11:32

-Stifyn Parri.

0:11:320:11:34

-After the break we'll meet

-a pillar of the community...

0:11:390:11:42

-..and play the studio challenge.

0:11:430:11:45

-See you soon.

-Welcome back to Wyt Ti'n Gem?

0:12:030:12:05

-Being a referee is tough.

0:12:050:12:07

-Keeping 30 adults in line

-is difficult...

0:12:070:12:10

-..but I can't imagine what it's like

-keeping 30 children in line.

0:12:100:12:15

-That's precisely what this week's

-pillar of the community does...

0:12:150:12:19

-..in her capacity as a teacher.

0:12:190:12:22

-Education is crucial, which is why

-we sent a new teacher...

0:12:220:12:26

-..to Ysgol Maes Garmon in Mold

-to give them a helping hand.

0:12:260:12:31

-Nia Wyn Jones is head of music...

0:12:320:12:35

-..at Ysgol Maes Garmon.

0:12:360:12:38

-As well as teaching, a head

-of department must also be aware...

0:12:380:12:42

-..of any developments in education.

0:12:430:12:45

-This is Dafydd,

-our education expert.

0:12:460:12:48

-With the school's co-operation,

-he'll be leading an experiment...

0:12:480:12:53

-...based on a new Swedish method

-of teaching music...

0:12:530:12:56

-..in which Nia must take part.

0:12:560:12:58

-Silence, Year 12.

0:12:590:13:00

-Silence, Year 12.

-

-My name's Dafydd.

0:13:000:13:02

-I'm here to teach you about

-the Gustafsson technique.

0:13:030:13:06

-It's a technique of learning music

-in a different way.

0:13:070:13:11

-How is that word pronounced, Miss?

0:13:110:13:14

-Yag?

0:13:170:13:19

-Perfect. Well done.

-Most people I ask say jag.

0:13:190:13:23

-Pull in the oxygen in our bodies

-and then use musical wavelengths.

0:13:230:13:29

-Ja-ah-ah-ah-ah...

0:13:290:13:31

-Do you think you can do that?

0:13:390:13:41

-Do you think you can do that?

-

-Yes.

0:13:410:13:42

-Miss, will you help me out?

-One, two, three.

0:13:420:13:46

-Ja-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah...

0:13:460:13:51

-Fantastic.

0:13:520:13:53

-This is how I say Vet.

0:13:530:13:55

-I get the teeth out

-and go v-v-v-v-v-vet!

0:13:560:14:01

-V-v-v-v-v-v-v...

0:14:020:14:04

-You have to stick your teeth out

-and open that mouth.

0:14:070:14:11

-To do this, I pitch my voice

-a little higher. Ve-e-e-e-e-t!

0:14:120:14:16

-Ve-e-e-e-e-e-t!

0:14:170:14:19

-This is going well. Well done, Miss.

-Watch out for the next one.

0:14:190:14:24

-What I like to do is this.

0:14:240:14:26

-Ga-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah...

0:14:260:14:31

-I told you, didn't I?

0:14:320:14:34

-One, two, three.

0:14:350:14:37

-Ga-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah...

0:14:370:14:39

-Fantastic. For the next one,

-we combine a word with a movement.

0:14:440:14:49

-Allegro.

-I'm going to do this to allegro.

0:14:490:14:52

-I'm going to go...

0:14:530:14:55

-Here we go. This is more like an

-exercise class than a music class.

0:14:550:14:59

-Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!

0:15:050:15:08

-Bring the hips into it.

-Come on! Yeah!

0:15:080:15:11

-Come on, alright!

0:15:110:15:13

-Ah, action replay!

-I understand that one.

0:15:150:15:18

-Adagio, yes?

0:15:190:15:21

-And that's all of them.

-What did you think of that, Miss?

0:15:210:15:25

-Did it help you or not?

0:15:260:15:28

-Yes, it did.

0:15:280:15:29

-Yes, it did.

-

-Your face says it all, Miss!

0:15:290:15:31

-As it happens, I have a message

-from Gustafsson himself.

0:15:320:15:37

-Hello. Nigel Owens here.

0:15:380:15:40

-Before you came on the show,

-I wanted to see if you were game.

0:15:400:15:45

-Enjoy your day.

0:15:450:15:47

-One more surprise for you, Miss.

0:15:490:15:52

-The school choir will sing

-one of your own compositions.

0:15:520:15:56

-Yes, you're a treasure to them and

-to everyone else at Maes Garmon.

0:15:560:16:01

-# Being a friend to you

-is precious #

0:16:120:16:16

-Thank you, Nigel.

0:16:220:16:24

-I had no idea. I really thought

-we were getting special tuition.

0:16:240:16:30

-Hearing the choir sing Trysor

-was excellent. Thank you, Nigel.

0:16:300:16:35

-# A treasure to us #

0:16:350:16:40

-Fair play to her.

-Please welcome Nia Wyn Jones.

0:16:460:16:50

-I'm glad you made

-a fool of yourself too!

0:17:020:17:04

-Weren't you suspicious?

0:17:050:17:06

-Weren't you suspicious?

-

-I had no idea at all.

0:17:060:17:09

-We couldn't have caught you out

-on Wyt Ti'n Gem...

0:17:100:17:14

-..without the help of Bronwen

-Hughes, head teacher of Maes Garmon.

0:17:140:17:19

-Where are you, Bronwen?

0:17:190:17:21

-She's in the front.

0:17:210:17:23

-She's a credit to the school,

-isn't she? The teachers adore her.

0:17:230:17:28

-But more importantly,

-the children adore her too.

0:17:280:17:31

-Nia is a real treasure.

0:17:320:17:34

-She makes a huge contribution to

-the school with concerts, shows...

0:17:340:17:39

-..supporting individual pupils

-as well as the eisteddfod and so on.

0:17:390:17:43

-Her contribution to the community...

0:17:440:17:46

-..is invaluable.

0:17:470:17:49

-She works so hard

-and dedicates countless hours...

0:17:490:17:53

-..to choirs and individuals.

0:17:530:17:55

-We all think the world of Nia.

0:17:550:17:57

-Don't say any more

-or you'll have me in tears!

0:18:020:18:05

-You ran a competition at school

-where you put the words of hymns...

0:18:060:18:10

-..to modern songs -

-so how did that work?

0:18:110:18:14

-I thought of it as the Dyffryn Clwyd

-Eurovision Song Contest.

0:18:140:18:18

-We chose a hymn and found

-a more modern tune to accompany it.

0:18:180:18:22

-It was a big thing.

0:18:230:18:25

-You're a bit of a stalker,

-in a nice way, not a nasty way.

0:18:250:18:29

-What are you referring to, Nigel?

0:18:300:18:32

-Didn't you stalk Aled Jones once?

0:18:320:18:36

-I think it was

-the 1985 Urdd Eisteddfod in Rhyl.

0:18:370:18:40

-I remember following him.

0:18:410:18:43

-A group of girls followed him around

-the Maes for a while...

0:18:440:18:48

-..until he started to worry.

0:18:480:18:50

-He thought we'd never leave him.

0:18:500:18:51

-He thought we'd never leave him.

-

-Get her away! Get her away!

0:18:510:18:54

-What happened when you

-went to watch comedian Lee Mack?

0:18:540:18:58

-Did you try and get a selfie

-with him or something?

0:18:580:19:01

-I'm a big fan of Lee Mack.

0:19:020:19:04

-His book had just been published,

-I was in a queue for him to sign it.

0:19:040:19:10

-A woman said to me, "Please

-do not ask Mr Mack for any photos.

0:19:100:19:15

-"He will not be posing."

0:19:150:19:17

-I'd been warned but I thought,

-flipping heck, come on...

0:19:170:19:21

-..it's not every day

-I meet someone like him.

0:19:210:19:25

-I passed my phone

-to the bloke behind me and said...

0:19:250:19:28

-"When he signs my book,

-I'll look over...

0:19:290:19:32

-"..but just get his..."

0:19:320:19:34

-Anyway, suddenly, the bloke says...

0:19:340:19:37

-.."Oi, Lee, look up, she needs

-a photo for the paternity claim!"

0:19:370:19:41

-It worked and Lee said,

-"That was a good one."

0:19:440:19:47

-It's in his routine now!

0:19:470:19:50

-You really are a treasure.

0:19:510:19:53

-You fully deserve our trophy.

0:19:530:19:57

-You're this week's

-pillar of the community.

0:19:570:20:01

-Congratulations.

0:20:010:20:03

-Congratulations.

-

-Thank you.

0:20:030:20:05

-Stifyn, I didn't want you

-to leave empty handed.

0:20:130:20:17

-Glad to hear it.

0:20:170:20:18

-Glad to hear it.

-

-But you are!

0:20:180:20:21

-I will put that on the wall.

0:20:270:20:29

-I hope you will.

-Do you have a mantelpiece?

0:20:290:20:31

-In the loo, perhaps.

0:20:320:20:34

-This'll be a big help

-in keeping the Stiwt open.

0:20:340:20:38

-Happy birthday to the Stiwt!

0:20:380:20:40

-Since Nia's used to arranging hymns

-to accompany pop melodies...

0:20:410:20:46

-..we decided to do the same.

0:20:470:20:49

-Time for

-the Wyt Ti'n Gem? challenge.

0:20:490:20:51

-This is what we're going to do.

0:20:570:20:59

-We're going to have

-a bit of rapping, not singing.

0:21:000:21:04

-We thought

-you suited the rap name Emyn-em.

0:21:050:21:08

-And Nia, you can be Ice-Teddfod.

0:21:110:21:14

-I've been thinking of those

-all afternoon.

0:21:140:21:17

-The words to Air Disglair Duw

-are on the screen.

0:21:180:21:21

-I want you

-to rap the words to the music.

0:21:220:21:25

-Here you go.

0:21:260:21:27

-Here you go.
