0:16:44 > 0:16:47- "Well done, John. - What's your verse?"
0:16:47 > 0:16:49- 'For he's a jolly good fellow.'
0:16:51 > 0:16:55- There was an old remote chapel - in Wales years ago.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58- There were only two deacons.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01- One had been there all his life...
0:17:01 > 0:17:05- ..the other had spent years - in London selling milk and water.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10- Some people go away - for a fortnight...
0:17:10 > 0:17:13- ..and return - having forgotten their Welsh.
0:17:13 > 0:17:17- The deacon announced one Sunday - that the chapel needed repainting.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20- He wanted to do - a proper job of it...
0:17:21 > 0:17:25- ..to remember how it had been. - He hoped everyone would contribute.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29- The milk and water man - got to his feet.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34- "I don't think it's worth spending - so much money on the little chapel.
0:17:34 > 0:17:39- "Only half a dozen turn up every - Sunday. It's a waste of money."
0:17:40 > 0:17:45- He sat back down. A piece - of plaster landed on his forehead.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47- It hurt!
0:17:48 > 0:17:52- "Seeing as it's this bad, I'll - donate 500 for the cause," he said.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56- The other deacon said, - "Oh Lord, hit him again."
0:18:04 > 0:18:06- Thank you!
0:18:06 > 0:18:11- The next trio retired - a few years ago.

0:18:25 > 0:18:29- ..a guild that contributed - so much to Welsh culture.
0:18:29 > 0:18:35- I'm sure we're all looking forward - to hearing their unique sound.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02- Remembering the words - is Roy's problem.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05- Remembering everything else - is my problem!
0:19:07 > 0:19:11- FROM THE EARTH TO THE EARTH
0:19:29 > 0:19:32- # The cold Pennant Valley moon,

0:19:39 > 0:19:42- # The flame in Nansi's valley
0:19:44 > 0:19:47- # Smouldering in the dust.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54- # The old paths like veins
0:19:55 > 0:19:58- # Weaving through every region.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06- # The sly sunshine - of New Year's Day,
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- # Yesterday's clouds running away.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16- # This morning we can remember,

0:21:08 > 0:21:11- # Cwmllinau and Bwlch-y-Ffridd.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17- # The song is here - in Montgomeryshire,
0:21:18 > 0:21:21- # A hymn that comes from the land.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26- # The old paths like veins
0:21:28 > 0:21:32- # Weaving through every region.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39- # Remembering yesterday so clearly,

0:22:06 > 0:22:09- # From the earth to the earth.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14- # O-o-o-o-o-o
0:22:19 > 0:22:21- # From the earth to the earth. #
0:22:39 > 0:22:41- Is there anyone here called Olwen?
0:22:41 > 0:22:44- Is there an Olwen here? - No-one will admit it!
0:22:44 > 0:22:48- I know that Dai's wife - is called Olwen.
0:22:48 > 0:22:52- Perhaps he should - be singing this song.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54- 'That's my dear Olwen.'
0:23:04 > 0:23:07- # I'm prepared to admit that Olwen
0:23:09 > 0:23:13- # Is the most beautiful girl, - apart from one.
0:23:14 > 0:23:18- # I'm not surprised - that poets throughout the ages
0:23:19 > 0:23:22- # Half-worshipped her.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27- # But even so, I have to confess,
0:23:29 > 0:23:31- # There is one who is dearer to me.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37- # She's singing in the kitchen,
0:23:39 > 0:23:41- # That's my dear Olwen.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52- # I know that my sweetheart
0:23:53 > 0:23:57- # Doesn't wear bright red silks.
0:23:58 > 0:24:03- # Nor is her neck adorned - with a string of pearls,
0:24:03 > 0:24:06- # Nor a golden crown on her head.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12- # But I don't care about that,
0:24:14 > 0:24:17- # She's the liveliest of them all.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23- # She doesn't owe a farthing - to anyone in the world,
