0:00:00 > 0:00:02- 888- - 888
0:00:08 > 0:00:10- 888
0:00:13 > 0:00:15- 888
0:00:20 > 0:00:22- 888
0:00:28 > 0:00:30- Hello and welcome - to Straeon Tafarn...
0:00:30 > 0:00:35- ..with me, Dewi Pws Morris, - the leading Welsh pub historian.
0:00:37 > 0:00:42- Today, I'm in the far north - to visit a very special place.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46- It's a rural pub in Llanfrothen - called The Ring.
0:00:47 > 0:00:51- It's not far from Portmeirion, - one of my favourite places.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54- Oh... a cattle grid!
0:00:54 > 0:00:56- It's a magical place.
0:00:56 > 0:01:02- Brondanw was also designed - by Clough Williams-Ellis.
0:01:03 > 0:01:08- I like being early to meet the locals - and to get a feel for a place.
0:01:08 > 0:01:13- I'm looking forward to meeting - the band at The Ring for our gig.
0:01:16 > 0:01:17- It's nice to arrive.
0:01:18 > 0:01:22- Mam always told me to go now - so that I could come back...
0:01:23 > 0:01:25- ..but she didn't mention coming back!
0:01:25 > 0:01:31- The gig should be great, as The Ring - is renowned for live Welsh music.
0:01:31 > 0:01:35- I asked Emlyn and Gruff, - the current managers...
0:01:35 > 0:01:38- ..about their expectations - for the night.
0:01:38 > 0:01:42- You've got Dewi Pws - and Radwm performing tonight.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44- Is it a sell-out?
0:01:44 > 0:01:45- Is it a sell-out?- - No... no.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47- Who?
0:01:49 > 0:01:54- Laugh? I almost bought a round - for everyone in the world!
0:01:54 > 0:01:56- Back to the important issues.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00- Where does the local name - for The Ring come from?
0:02:00 > 0:02:02- Is that it?
0:02:02 > 0:02:03- Is that it?- - Yes.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07- They say that boats - were tied to this ring...
0:02:07 > 0:02:10- ..before the Cob was built.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13- Water covered this entire area.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16- And they tied the boats to this?
0:02:16 > 0:02:17- And they tied the boats to this?- - Yes, that's right.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- If I'm honest, - I don't believe the story.
0:02:21 > 0:02:22- I don't think so.
0:02:22 > 0:02:27- Others say that the blacksmith - tied horses to it.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- It was used - when horses needed shoes.
0:02:30 > 0:02:35- A place to tie - a horse or a boat.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37- Gruff had another story for me.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40- What do we have here?
0:02:40 > 0:02:42- What do we have here?- - This is the rear of the pub.
0:02:42 > 0:02:47- In the olden days, - the pub owned these fields.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51- It was the site of an auction ring - for the drovers and their stock.
0:02:51 > 0:02:56- The stock was housed overnight, - the drovers had a pint...
0:02:56 > 0:02:59- ..and the sale was held - the following morning.
0:02:59 > 0:03:04- An auction ring! I like that story, - but I liked the other story too.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08- Hey, come on boys. Come with me.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10- There's another explanation for you.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15- Come on, boys. - Make a decision, for goodness sake!
0:03:15 > 0:03:18- What's the true story, Emlyn?
0:03:18 > 0:03:20- What's the true story, Emlyn?- - This is how I see it.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24- We had many quarries - such as Cwm Croesor, Rhosydd...
0:03:24 > 0:03:27- ..Cwmorthin, Fron-boeth - and Pant-mawr.
0:03:27 > 0:03:32- The quarrymen marched down the hill - in their hobnail boots on a Friday.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- One would ask another - if he was going to the inn tonight.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39- The question would filter - along the row of men.
0:03:40 > 0:03:41- This proves that it was an inn.
0:03:42 > 0:03:43- What do you think, Gruff?
0:03:43 > 0:03:46- What do you think, Gruff?- - We'll never agree on this one.
0:03:46 > 0:03:51- # The devil's in the beer keg, - so they say #
0:03:51 > 0:03:55- If boats were secured - to the ring by the pub...
0:03:56 > 0:04:01- ..the sea must once have flowed - up the valley from Porthmadog.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03- I need help with this one.
0:04:03 > 0:04:08- I was delighted to see Wales's - Obi-Wan Kenobi, John Bwlchllan.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12- What's the history of the Cob, John?
0:04:12 > 0:04:17- The Cob is a causeway that blocked - the mouth of the River Glaslyn...
0:04:17 > 0:04:19- ..and reclaimed land from the sea.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22- If we were on this spot in 1800...
0:04:22 > 0:04:27- ..The Ring would be the last - remaining piece of dry land...
0:04:27 > 0:04:31- ..and we would be gazing - over an estuary.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- The land bordering us - would have been under water.
0:04:34 > 0:04:40- We've lost the concept of Snowdon - reflected in a body of water.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44- That's unfortunate, but they - reclaimed a lot of land as a result.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- When did this happen?
0:04:47 > 0:04:51- William Alexander Maddocks - started building the Cob in 1808.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55- You could say that The Ring - was on the last piece of dry land...
0:04:55 > 0:04:59- ..before the waters of Traeth Mawr.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03- It's amazing that one man - from London...
0:05:03 > 0:05:05- ..William Alexander Maddocks MP...
0:05:06 > 0:05:09- ..changed the shape - of this part of Wales forever.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13- The Ring is located in an area - that was rife with quarries.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17- I had the pleasure of meeting - Edgar Parry Williams...
0:05:17 > 0:05:19- ..who has fond memories - of the old days.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23- The quarry has been part - of your family for centuries.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26- How many generations - have worked there?
0:05:26 > 0:05:30- My father, grandfather - and great-grandfather worked there.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33- I can't be sure - about previous generations.
0:05:33 > 0:05:39- Croesor Quarry produced slate - from about 1856 onwards.
0:05:41 > 0:05:47- It was the area's main employer - at that time.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51- The village of Croesor - sprang up around the quarry.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56- My family, including my father - and grandfather...
0:05:56 > 0:06:02- ..had little choice but to work - at the quarry in Croesor.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05- They grew up used to hard work.
0:06:05 > 0:06:10- The workers would walk - from Llanfrothen to the quarry...
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- ..spend the day at work - and then walk home.
0:06:13 > 0:06:17- Some owned smallholdings - and had to work after coming home.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20- They were tough men.
0:06:20 > 0:06:25- Often, the husbands and sons - worked in the quarry...
0:06:25 > 0:06:29- ..while the mothers - tended to the farms.
0:06:29 > 0:06:34- If you wanted a labourer, - you went to Trawsfynydd!
0:06:34 > 0:06:38- They were the Poles of their day, - but they came from Trawsfynydd!
0:06:38 > 0:06:43- I'm referring to Croesor Quarry, - but there were many other quarries.
0:06:43 > 0:06:48- The remains of Brondanw Quarry - are seen on the way to Croesor.
0:06:49 > 0:06:54- Others included Foty, Hafod Uchaf. - Llidiart yr Arian and Park.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00- The work in the area - was quite varied.
0:07:00 > 0:07:04- Edgar told me that Croesor Quarry - was ahead of its time.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06- It was the first - to have electricity.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- This was all thanks - to one exceptional man.
0:07:09 > 0:07:14- I'm jumping ahead now, - because Peredur Hughes wants a word.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16- He has a surprise for me.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18- How are you, Peredur?
0:07:18 > 0:07:19- How are you, Peredur?- - Hello, how are you?
0:07:20 > 0:07:21- Are you keeping well?
0:07:21 > 0:07:22- Are you keeping well?- - I was!
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- What on earth is this? - Is it a Hoover?
0:07:26 > 0:07:28- It's more technical than that.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30- It's more technical than that.- - It's heavy. What is it?
0:07:31 > 0:07:33- It's a Moses Kellow drill.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35- Who was he?
0:07:35 > 0:07:40- He was the manager of the Park - and Croesor slate quarries.
0:07:40 > 0:07:45- He was also an excellent engineer - and he invented this drill.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49- This is one of only two left - in the whole world.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52- How does it work?
0:07:52 > 0:07:57- Most drills used in quarrying - were driven by air pressure...
0:07:57 > 0:08:00- ..but this one is driven by water.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05- The casing - houses a water turbine.
0:08:05 > 0:08:11- It works with a water pressure - of below 700 per square inch.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15- Water was pumped - into the turbine through pipes.
0:08:15 > 0:08:20- This drill can make - a seven-foot deep hole...
0:08:20 > 0:08:24- ..in the slate - in less than a minute.
0:08:24 > 0:08:25- Goodness me!
0:08:26 > 0:08:30- No other machine can drill - that quickly even today.
0:08:31 > 0:08:32- I love this drill...
0:08:33 > 0:08:37- ..but miles of pipes were needed - in order for it to function.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40- It's madness! Where was his sense?
0:08:41 > 0:08:45- They say that Moses - had got himself into a pickle...
0:08:45 > 0:08:49- ..due to the amount of money - he was spending.
0:08:49 > 0:08:54- In 1912, there was a fire...
0:08:54 > 0:08:59- ..and the Croesor Quarry workshops - burnt to the ground.
0:08:59 > 0:09:04- The building had been insured - for a tidy sum.
0:09:04 > 0:09:09- That spelt the end of the drill, - more or less.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13- I could have spent hours - discussing the drill with Peredur...
0:09:13 > 0:09:17- ..but I had people to go - and places to meet...
0:09:18 > 0:09:20- ..if I could find the way!
0:09:23 > 0:09:25- IMITATING SHEEP BLEATS
0:09:25 > 0:09:27- Get down!
0:09:28 > 0:09:30- Sheep!
0:09:36 > 0:09:37- Oh!
0:09:37 > 0:09:39- Oh!- - Are you alright?
0:09:39 > 0:09:42- I'd received a call - to meet Marian Roberts...
0:09:42 > 0:09:44- ..at Llanfrothen Church cemetery.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47- How could I refuse?
0:09:48 > 0:09:51- Why have you brought me - to this specific grave?
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- This is the grave of Robert Roberts - of Ty Capel, Croesor.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57- There's a saga - associated with this grave.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00- Robert Roberts - was a Nonconformist...
0:10:00 > 0:10:04- ..who wanted to be buried - beside his daughter, Kate.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09- The parish rector argued - that Roberts was a Nonconformist...
0:10:09 > 0:10:12- ..and couldn't be buried - on church land.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16- The family employed Lloyd George - to argue their case.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18- Lloyd George became well known...
0:10:18 > 0:10:23- ..after defending Robert Roberts - and his right to be buried here.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27- Lloyd George argued - that this was parish land...
0:10:27 > 0:10:29- ..and that the funeral - should go ahead.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- The rector did everything he could - to prevent it.
0:10:33 > 0:10:38- He locked the gates, forcing the - gravedigger to climb over the wall.
0:10:38 > 0:10:44- He even asked the local constable - to prevent anyone entering.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- On the day of the funeral...
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- ..he wouldn't let them use his bier - to carry the coffin from Croesor.
0:10:52 > 0:10:53- How far was that?
0:10:53 > 0:10:55- How far was that?- - Three miles.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58- Many people had gathered - for the funeral.
0:10:58 > 0:11:03- Groups of six took it in turn - to carry the coffin to the cemetery.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07- When they arrived, - the gate was locked...
0:11:07 > 0:11:12- ..but they broke the lock - and the funeral went ahead.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16- Lloyd George took the case - to the Court of Appeal...
0:11:17 > 0:11:19- ..to argue in favour of a law...
0:11:19 > 0:11:23- ..that allowed residents - to be buried in their local parish.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26- That would make an amazing film.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28- That would make an amazing film.- - Yes, it would.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32- Lloyd George became a hero - among Welsh chapelgoers.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36- After a few years, he was MP - for the boroughs of Caernarfon.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39- He was relatively unknown - before this time.
0:11:39 > 0:11:43- One could argue that Wales's - most prominent politician...
0:11:43 > 0:11:46- ..with the possible exception - of Aneurin Bevan...
0:11:47 > 0:11:50- ..started his career in Llanfrothen.
0:11:53 > 0:11:53- .
0:11:59 > 0:11:59- 888
0:11:59 > 0:12:01- 888- - 888
0:12:04 > 0:12:07- It's great to travel around Wales - with the band...
0:12:07 > 0:12:10- ..and meeting local characters - and hearing their stories.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14- I'm not the first happy wanderer - to roam these parts.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19- Many important figures - have passed through Llanfrothen.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24- Gerald of Wales - "We crossed - Traeth Mawr and Traeth Bychan."
0:12:24 > 0:12:27- George Borrow - "Hello, Taffy!"
0:12:28 > 0:12:29- And me - "How are you, boy?"
0:12:31 > 0:12:35- We came across a famous story - on our travels...
0:12:35 > 0:12:37- ..for reasons - that will become apparent.
0:12:37 > 0:12:41- The term 'hwntw' that refers - to a person from South Wales...
0:12:41 > 0:12:43- ..isn't welcomed in these parts.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46- Do you want to know why?
0:12:46 > 0:12:48- The story of Yr Hwntw Mawr.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52- Ironically, Yr Hwntw Mawr - was from North Wales.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55- He got the name - after working in the south.
0:12:55 > 0:12:59- His real name was Thomas Edwards - - a big, strong, muscular man.
0:12:59 > 0:13:03- He was employed to fix the Cob - after a large storm.
0:13:03 > 0:13:08- While working on the Cob, - he heard about a stash of money...
0:13:08 > 0:13:11- ..kept on a local farm - and decided to steal it.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14- He hatched a plan.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18- He would steal from the house - while its owners were harvesting...
0:13:18 > 0:13:23- ..but Mary Jones, the maid, - was still at home.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26- She was busy preparing food - for the workers.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30- It doesn't take a genius - to figure out what happened next.
0:13:30 > 0:13:36- Yr Hwntw Mawr killed Mary Jones - with sheep shears.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38- Then he fled.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41- A large group chased him.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45- On the banks of the River Dwyryd, - there was a massive fight.
0:13:45 > 0:13:49- One of the crew drowned. - He was Mary Jones's uncle.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51- Yr Hwntw Mawr was caught.
0:13:51 > 0:13:52- His sentence?
0:13:53 > 0:13:57- On 17th April, 1813, in Dolgellau...
0:13:57 > 0:14:00- ..he was publicly hanged.
0:14:01 > 0:14:06- He was the last person to be - publicly hanged in Merionethshire.
0:14:06 > 0:14:10- Mary Jones - was buried in Llanfrothen.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14- The name of her murderer...
0:14:14 > 0:14:17- ..is inscribed on her grave.
0:14:26 > 0:14:31- I noticed that the village houses - are all remarkably similar.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34- The same colour and shape - and with quirky decorations.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38- It's all down - to Sir Clough Williams-Ellis.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42- Robin, Clough's grandson, - joined me at The Ring for a chat.
0:14:43 > 0:14:44- This is his local.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47- Where are you from?
0:14:47 > 0:14:49- Where are you from?- - Here - I'm a Llanfrothen boy.
0:14:50 > 0:14:55- I was born and raised - at Cefn Cyffin up the road.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58- I live in Minffordd now - due to my work at Portmeirion.
0:14:59 > 0:15:03- But this is my spiritual home - - not The Ring itself!
0:15:03 > 0:15:08- I spent my youth roaming the hills - with the local children.
0:15:08 > 0:15:14- We'd walk the Moelwyn, Cnicht, - Croesor and Traeth Bach.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18- We were like wild goats - wandering around the area.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29- Robin Llywelyn - is proud of this area...
0:15:29 > 0:15:32- ..and is delighted - to share his family's history.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36- Plas Brondanw dates back - to the 15th century.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39- It was built by a forefather - of my grandfather.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44- My grandfather inherited the site - at the start of the last century.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47- He was a young man at the time.
0:15:47 > 0:15:51- The creation of these gardens - became his lifelong work.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55- For every pound that he earned, - he spent a pound on the garden.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59- I think that this place inspired him - to become an architect...
0:16:00 > 0:16:02- ..who also designed landscapes.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09- It's a magical place.
0:16:11 > 0:16:17- I find it amusing - that he built an unfinished tower.
0:16:17 > 0:16:21- He married Amabel Strachey in 1915.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- At the time, he was serving - with the Welsh Fusiliers.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28- His regiment wanted to give him - a wedding gift.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32- They expected a silver dish, - but his response was a ruin!
0:16:33 > 0:16:36- He asked them to fund - the building of a ruin...
0:16:36 > 0:16:38- ..as he had the ideal spot for it.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41- He had a concept to build a ruin.
0:16:41 > 0:16:47- In the 1920s, a worker for the - National Monuments department...
0:16:47 > 0:16:51- ..came in search of stories - associated with ruins.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54- He came to The Ring - and asked about this tower.
0:16:55 > 0:17:00- He was told that Mr Williams-Ellis - had only just finished building it!
0:17:04 > 0:17:09- Between you and me, Sir Clough - may have been a bit eccentric.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12- Never in Europe, says Robin!
0:17:12 > 0:17:16- What did Sir Clough do when the - house burnt down in the 1950s?
0:17:17 > 0:17:21- He put the ashes in a pot - and set it in a statue in the garden.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23- I love things like that.
0:17:23 > 0:17:29- He loved Welsh architecture, - such as the limewashed cottages.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33- In Llanfrothen, he built - such things as the Lodge...
0:17:34 > 0:17:37- ..and the acorn-shaped structure - on Cyffin Terrace.
0:17:37 > 0:17:43- He used local stone and slate - but perfected traditional methods...
0:17:43 > 0:17:46- ..so that they were more measured.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49- Yet, the style - continues to be Welsh.
0:17:50 > 0:17:54- Sir Clough didn't only put his stamp - on the area's buildings.
0:17:54 > 0:17:58- He attracted the English - bohemian intelligentsia...
0:17:58 > 0:18:01- ..to stay - in the old quarry cottages.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04- They looked very different to us.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08- The one person who really - stood out for me...
0:18:08 > 0:18:10- ..was Patrick O'Brian, the author.
0:18:11 > 0:18:17- When I went to work on the farm, - he wanted to help with the harvest.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21- I worked with a man - who was in his seventies...
0:18:21 > 0:18:24- ..who spoke very little English.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27- Of course, O'Brian - couldn't speak Welsh at all.
0:18:28 > 0:18:33- This old man struggled - to tell him what to do...
0:18:33 > 0:18:36- ..so he turned to me and said, - "You tell him!"
0:18:36 > 0:18:39- Did he learn any Welsh?
0:18:39 > 0:18:42- Did he learn any Welsh?- - Yes, he learnt quite a bit.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46- He would say to me, - "Edgar, your grammar is terrible."
0:18:47 > 0:18:49- He would comment on my English.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51- He taught - and corrected my English...
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- ..and I taught him - some Welsh vocabulary.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58- He was a proper and fastidious man.
0:18:58 > 0:19:03- I noticed that he wrote everything - in a little black book.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06- He'd write, "Edgar says..."
0:19:06 > 0:19:08- He'd write, "Edgar says..."- - Edgar says.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11- I was his authority - on certain aspects.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14- I'd listen to Edgar too!
0:19:14 > 0:19:18- While Robin was in the pub, - I had to ask one question.
0:19:18 > 0:19:22- Portmeirion is one of the most - amazing places I've ever visited.
0:19:23 > 0:19:24- How did it come about?
0:19:25 > 0:19:26- It was a total accident.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30- He wanted to build - the perfect seaside village.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34- His great-uncle, - Sir Osmond Williams...
0:19:34 > 0:19:37- ..asked him - whether he knew anyone...
0:19:38 > 0:19:42- ..who wanted to buy - a derelict estate at Aber Ia.
0:19:42 > 0:19:48- Clough said that no-one would want - a place in such a condition...
0:19:48 > 0:19:52- ..but he would be willing - to take it off his uncle's hands.
0:19:52 > 0:19:56- He acquired the place for next - to nothing and built the village.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59- It has a similar style - to Plas Brondanw...
0:19:59 > 0:20:05- ..but it's more colourful, - lively and flamboyant.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08- He was more subtle at Plas Brondanw.
0:20:08 > 0:20:14- Some suggest that Plas Brondanw - is more important than Portmeirion.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16- I'd like to live in Portmeirion.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18- I'd like to live in Portmeirion.- - We have rooms to let!
0:20:18 > 0:20:20- I love this place.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22- But do you know what?
0:20:22 > 0:20:27- The village, mansion, estate - and The Ring is owned by a charity.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29- As a result, - they will never be sold...
0:20:29 > 0:20:34- ..but will remain in Welsh hands, - just as Sir Clough wished.
0:20:34 > 0:20:40- I'm always surprised at the wealth - of history associated with pubs.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43- I've only scratched the surface - at The Ring.
0:20:43 > 0:20:48- Edgar told me about Bob Owen - of Croesor, a noted bibliophile.
0:20:50 > 0:20:56- Robin spoke of local poets, - such as Ioan Brothen.
0:20:56 > 0:21:00- Poetry continues to be - highly respected at The Ring.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03- "I once read - that beer was bad for me...
0:21:04 > 0:21:06- "..so I gave up reading."
0:21:07 > 0:21:12- Despite the predictions, the bar - was full when the band arrived.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16- Gruff had used Bryn Fon's poster - in the window!
0:21:17 > 0:21:21- # The devil's in the beer keg, - so they say
