0:04:24 > 0:04:26- I'll probably enjoy it.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45- Before that, I was a policeman. - I'm sure some of you know!

0:04:46 > 0:04:49- People still refer to me - as an ex-policeman.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51- Let me put the record straight.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54- I wasn't there long enough - to wear clean underpants!

0:04:54 > 0:04:58- But we didn't change underpants - so often in those days.

0:04:59 > 0:05:02- I was the Sheriff of Dolgellau - at 19 years of age.

0:05:03 > 0:05:07- Some nights, I was the only - policeman on duty in Merionethshire!

0:05:08 > 0:05:11- I hadn't passed my test - - but I had a big black bike.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14- Why were policemen's bikes - so big and black?!

0:05:15 > 0:05:18- You needed two men to push them! - They were too slow to catch a cold!

0:05:19 > 0:05:23- My greatest achievement - was to stop traffic.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26- I paved the way for two men - to steal a double-decker.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32- I went to Llandudno after Dolgellau. - There was real crime there!

0:05:33 > 0:05:37- During an afternoon shift, I had - to walk up and down the High Street.

0:05:38 > 0:05:39- Boring!

0:05:41 > 0:05:45- A young policeman - was on patrol and fed up.

0:05:46 > 0:05:51- He spotted a very suspicious man - leaving a bank.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55- He ran up Mostyn St - with something under his arm.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59- The policeman chased him up - Mostyn St, down Gloddau St...

0:05:59 > 0:06:02- ..along Lloyd St, back to Mostyn St, - up the hill towards the Orme...

0:06:03 > 0:06:05- ..and the policeman - still chased him.

0:06:05 > 0:06:09- As they reached the Orme tram - station, the policeman grabbed him.

0:06:10 > 0:06:14- He pinned him against the tram. - "Right!" he said.

0:06:15 > 0:06:19- "What's under your arm?" - "Hair. What have you got, feathers?"

0:06:26 > 0:06:27- Yes!

0:06:28 > 0:06:31- The choir was formed - three years ago.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35- They made their mark - on the choral empire.

0:12:11 > 0:12:17- # The tape has turned - its final turn

0:12:18 > 0:12:21- # The desk is closed

0:12:22 > 0:12:25- # The door is locked

0:12:25 > 0:12:28- # The day's noise has faded

0:12:29 > 0:12:32- # The song has ended

0:12:32 > 0:12:38- # And everyone is exhausted

0:12:38 > 0:12:45- # But night in Caer Arianrhod

0:12:48 > 0:12:51- # Is the start of the day

0:12:52 > 0:12:54- # A long day

0:13:03 > 0:13:09- # Isn't long with you

0:13:14 > 0:13:21- # Dawn brought an end to our world

0:13:22 > 0:13:24- # The fingers are weak

0:13:25 > 0:13:28- # The voice is hoarse

0:13:29 > 0:13:32- # The eyes are red

0:13:32 > 0:13:36- # My back aches

0:13:36 > 0:13:41- # The muse has fallen asleep

0:13:42 > 0:13:49- # But night in Caer Arianrhod

0:13:51 > 0:13:54- # Is the start of the day

0:13:55 > 0:13:58- # A long day

0:13:58 > 0:14:05- # But night in Caer Arianrhod

0:14:06 > 0:14:12- # Isn't long with you

0:14:18 > 0:14:23- # Sometimes it falls through the net

0:14:25 > 0:14:29- # Sometimes there's too much stress

0:14:31 > 0:14:36- # But the sun soon appears

0:14:38 > 0:14:44- # To bring back the good times

0:14:45 > 0:14:51- # But night in Caer Arianrhod

0:14:53 > 0:14:56- # Is the start of the day

0:14:56 > 0:14:59- # A long day

0:15:00 > 0:15:08- # But night in Caer Arianrhod

0:15:09 > 0:15:12- # Isn't long

0:15:14 > 0:15:19- # With you #

0:15:34 > 0:15:38- We sang a couple of old songs - in a friend's wedding.

0:15:38 > 0:15:42- We thought it would be good - to record our favourite songs....

0:15:43 > 0:15:46- ..especially arranged - for the voice and piano.

0:15:47 > 0:15:51- You've sang plenty of other - songwriters' songs in the past.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54- There was a repertoire - available to record.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57- No-one's said I've got - a repertoire before! Thank you!

0:15:57 > 0:15:59- Posh word, for a change.

0:16:00 > 0:16:04- Some of you probably know - that for most of my life...

0:16:04 > 0:16:06- ..I was a confirmed bachelor.

0:16:08 > 0:16:12- But one Friday night, I was struck - by a thunderbolt. That was it!

0:16:12 > 0:16:17- I was a married man. And fair play, - I'm enjoying married life.

0:16:19 > 0:16:22- People who've lived alone for a - long time can find it hard to adapt.

0:16:22 > 0:16:26- You get used to doing things - your own way.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30- Years ago, people were engaged - for 40 years!

0:16:31 > 0:16:33- I'm sure you remember - couples in your area.

0:16:33 > 0:16:37- A couple lived - in the north of Anglesey.

0:16:38 > 0:16:42- After three years of married life...

0:16:43 > 0:16:46- ..heaven on earth - became a living hell.

0:16:47 > 0:16:51- They kept shouting at one another.

0:16:52 > 0:16:53- Living together was unbearable.

0:16:54 > 0:16:58- A neighbour suggested they saw - a marriage guidance counsellor.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02- So they made an appointment.

0:17:02 > 0:17:06- The counsellor sat one side of - the desk, they were on the other.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10- "Be totally honest with me," - said the counsellor.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13- "Tell it as it is. - Don't try to hide anything.

0:17:13 > 0:17:16- "I want to hear both sides. - You start, Mrs Hughes."

0:17:17 > 0:17:22- She started! She kept running him - down and wouldn't stop talking.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26- She rabbited on for 5 or 10 minutes.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30- No-one could get a word in edgeways.

0:17:30 > 0:17:34- She was still at it 25 minutes, - even half an hour later!

0:17:34 > 0:17:37- The husband and counsellor tried - to interrupt her, to no avail.

0:17:37 > 0:17:40- After half an hour, - the counsellor had had enough.

0:17:40 > 0:17:44- He grabbed her, and put - her against a filing cabinet.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47- He gave her a massive snog.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53- He put her back in her seat.

0:17:54 > 0:17:59- She sat there, dumbstruck - but - with an inane smile on her face.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04- "You see. That's what she needs - twice a week," said the counsellor.

0:18:04 > 0:18:08- "OK. I'll bring her here every - Tuesday and Thursday afternoon."

0:18:15 > 0:18:16- Yes!

0:18:18 > 0:18:20- But it reached a crisis point.

0:18:20 > 0:18:24- They were driving through Gwalchmai.

0:18:24 > 0:18:27- "I want a divorce," she said.

0:18:27 > 0:18:33- He gripped the steering wheel, - and increased his speed to 60mph.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35- They reached Llangefni.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38- "I'm having an affair with - a travelling salesman," she said.

0:18:39 > 0:18:43- His gripped tightened, - and increased his speed to 70mph.

0:18:44 > 0:18:48- "I want the house and the farm," - she said in Llanfair.

0:18:48 > 0:18:53- He didn't say a word, - and reached 80mph.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58- They were travelling at 80mph - towards Britannia bridge.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01- As they reached the bridge, - she said...

0:19:01 > 0:19:04- "..I want the bank account - and the cheque book."

0:19:06 > 0:19:08- He put his foot down once more.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12- He turned the car to face a big - concrete pillar on the bridge.

0:19:13 > 0:19:16- "Well, don't you want anything?"

0:19:16 > 0:19:19- "No," he replied. - "I've got everything I want here."

0:19:20 > 0:19:21- "Oh? And what's that?"

0:19:22 > 0:19:26- As they hit the concrete pillar - doing 90mph, he said, "Airbag."

0:19:39 > 0:19:43- Aren't we talented folk - here in Anglesey?!

0:19:43 > 0:19:44- AUDIENCE AGREES

0:19:44 > 0:19:46- AUDIENCE AGREES- - Let's not boast.

0:19:46 > 0:19:50- The facts speak for themselves. - We're better than the rest!

0:19:50 > 0:19:54- But this bunch has put - a part of this island on the map.

0:19:55 > 0:19:59- They've set a high standard - nationally and internationally...

0:19:59 > 0:20:03- ..in the world of musical - instrumentalists - and with a smile.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06- We've performed in concerts - as well as competed.

0:20:07 > 0:20:09- Most of the time, we do concerts.

0:20:09 > 0:20:13- But the Band has been very busy - - especially the 'B' Band.

0:24:40 > 0:24:48- # We both said things in anger

0:24:48 > 0:24:53- # Twenty years ago

0:24:54 > 0:24:58- # But tonight, - we'll take a step forward

0:25:03 > 0:25:06- # Long ago

0:25:06 > 0:25:09- # Our days were filled with song

0:25:10 > 0:25:14- # The heat of the sun - was enough to keep us happy

0:25:16 > 0:25:18- # Without fear

0:25:20 > 0:25:23- # Without doubting - the foundations of our world

0:25:23 > 0:25:27- # But not facing - a force beyond our power

0:25:30 > 0:25:34- # I remember seeing you - walking toward the border

0:25:36 > 0:25:41- # That moment - will stay with me forever

0:25:44 > 0:25:49- Twenty years ago

0:25:49 > 0:25:54- # We both said things in anger

0:25:57 > 0:26:02- # Twenty years ago

0:26:10 > 0:26:16- # I know there are obstacles - in our way

0:26:17 > 0:26:21- # I fell flat on my face

0:26:22 > 0:26:27- # A cold fate - swept across the land

0:26:29 > 0:26:33- # I felt the coldness of the anger

0:26:36 > 0:26:38- # But now

0:26:39 > 0:26:41- # My life's in disarray

0:26:43 > 0:26:47- # I'm still sitting here in silence

0:26:49 > 0:26:51- # But for now

0:26:53 > 0:26:55- # Let's reignite the flame

0:26:56 > 0:27:00- # The remains of its spark - hover on the breeze

0:27:03 > 0:27:08- # We'll bring down the barricades

0:27:09 > 0:27:15- # They've prevented us from seeing - the way ahead for far too long

0:27:17 > 0:27:22- # Twenty years ago

0:27:22 > 0:27:30- # We both said things in anger

0:27:30 > 0:27:36- # Twenty years ago

0:27:36 > 0:27:37- # But tonight

0:27:38 > 0:27:44- # We'll take a step forward #

0:27:55 > 0:27:58- I'm rather wary - of introducing the next couple.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02- Walter Thomas, and that tall, - loud one - Arthur Picton.

0:29:53 > 0:29:54- That's what it says on the poster!

0:29:55 > 0:29:57- But has Bryn said he's coming?

0:29:59 > 0:30:02- Put it like this, - he hasn't said he isn't coming.

0:30:04 > 0:30:08- I'm a big fan of Bryn's. - I know all his hits.

0:30:09 > 0:30:10- Wait.

0:30:12 > 0:30:16- # If I was a rich man, - Be-de-be-de-be-de-be-de-be-de-bum!

0:30:26 > 0:30:29- Shut it, before you feel - my foot on your be-de-bum!

0:30:35 > 0:30:38- Perhaps Bryn will sing - a duet with me.

0:30:39 > 0:30:40- He won't!

0:30:40 > 0:30:41- He won't!- - Why not?

0:30:41 > 0:30:41- Why not?

0:30:42 > 0:30:44- He won't be here, will he!

0:30:45 > 0:30:47- What will you say?

0:30:47 > 0:30:51- I'll say he cried off - - that he's got a bit of cold.

0:30:51 > 0:30:53- You know what singers are like!

0:30:54 > 0:30:57- They've only got to sneeze, and - than it's beddy-byes with Benylin!

0:30:58 > 0:31:01- You'll have to get someone - in his place.

0:31:01 > 0:31:02- Will I?

0:31:02 > 0:31:06- Yes! It won't be easy - to fill Bryn's shoes!

0:31:06 > 0:31:09- I've got it! Well done, Wali!

0:31:14 > 0:31:15- Do you know an Ifan from Llaneurwyn?

0:31:15 > 0:31:18- They say he's the spitting image - of Bryn Terfel.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20- They? You've never seen him?

0:31:20 > 0:31:20- They? You've never seen him?- - Yes! I haven't seen Bryn Terfel!

0:31:20 > 0:31:22- Yes! I haven't seen Bryn Terfel!

0:31:22 > 0:31:23- Oh!

0:31:25 > 0:31:27- Can Ifan sing?

0:31:27 > 0:31:32- He won't have to. I'll get a penguin - suit, dicky bow - and a tape.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59- But unfortunately...

0:32:00 > 0:32:02- ..it wasn't all tickety-boo.

0:32:03 > 0:32:06- It was up to me - to clear up the mess.

0:32:08 > 0:32:13- And welcome back to our host, - Arthur Picton!

0:32:50 > 0:32:52- What will we do?

0:32:53 > 0:32:56- I know someone who knows - all his hits - or so he says!
