-I'm Wynne Evans and I love to sing.

0:00:020:00:05

-Singing is my day job.

0:00:050:00:07

-I'm a singer and I want to know...

0:00:130:00:15

-..if there's a hidden singer

-in us all.

0:00:150:00:18

-For three months, I'll work with

-three of Wales's biggest companies.

0:00:230:00:28

-Are you drinking that?

0:00:280:00:29

-Are you drinking that?

-

-No.

0:00:290:00:30

-Tickets, please.

0:00:310:00:32

-I make a splash with Welsh Water.

0:00:330:00:36

-Goodnight!

0:00:380:00:40

-Sorry, aren't you asleep?

0:00:400:00:42

-I keep the music on track

-with Arriva Trains Wales.

0:00:430:00:47

-This is Wynne Evans, your driver.

0:00:480:00:50

-And I steer the singers

-of Edwards Coaches.

0:00:500:00:53

-Off we go!

0:00:560:00:57

-My mission

-is to form a workers' choir...

0:00:590:01:02

-..to record a charity single and

-perform live with me, in concert.

0:01:020:01:07

-Can the power of song

-change people's lives?

0:01:130:01:16

-Can I take a group of workers

-and turn them into a choir?

0:01:170:01:21

-This is the toughest job

-I've ever had.

0:01:220:01:25

-It's time for me to get to work.

0:01:270:01:29

-Eight o'clock in the morning

-and it's time to leave the house...

0:01:370:01:42

-..and start my adventure

-with Welsh Water.

0:01:430:01:46

-Welsh Water has over 2,000 staff.

0:01:510:01:53

-Some of them must be able to sing!

0:01:530:01:56

-My search begins in the north...

0:01:590:02:01

-..at Alwen Reservoir

-near Cerrigydrudion.

0:02:010:02:06

-The perfect place to hold auditions

-for Welsh Water's North Wales staff.

0:02:060:02:11

-The choir's accompanist is musician

-and composer, Geraint Cynan.

0:02:150:02:21

-Saying you can't sing is a misnomer.

0:02:220:02:24

-Everyone can sing,

-some more successfully than others.

0:02:250:02:29

-Helping me find good Welsh Water

-singers is Cefin Roberts...

0:02:290:02:33

-..choirmaster extraordinaire.

0:02:330:02:36

-It's a huge challenge

-for Wynne to form a new choir...

0:02:360:02:40

-..in such a short space of time.

0:02:400:02:42

-It's as great a challenge for him

-as for the singers.

0:02:430:02:47

-But there's no glam or glitz yet.

0:02:480:02:50

-Just a small piano

-in the reservoir's museum.

0:02:500:02:54

-We've all got to start somewhere!

0:02:540:02:56

-We're ready to audition

-the very first worker.

0:02:570:03:00

-Hello!

0:03:040:03:05

-I'm Tammy Craven

-and I live in Abergele.

0:03:060:03:09

-I've worked for Welsh Water for

-two years as a quantity surveyor.

0:03:100:03:14

-I love my job.

-Every day's different.

0:03:160:03:19

-I work with a great team.

0:03:190:03:21

-I enjoy singing but I've only sung

-in the car, in the shower...

0:03:240:03:28

-..or after a few shandies

-in the karaoke.

0:03:280:03:31

-I'm nervous

-about singing in front of Wynne.

0:03:320:03:35

-Nervous? In front of me?

0:03:360:03:38

-Hello. How are you?

0:03:380:03:39

-Hello. How are you?

-

-Fine, thanks. And you?

0:03:390:03:41

-Not bad.

0:03:420:03:43

-Harbwr Diogel.

0:03:440:03:45

-Good song choice.

0:03:460:03:48

-# There's something about you

0:03:480:03:51

-# Which I can't explain

0:03:510:03:55

-# Something about you

0:03:560:03:58

-# Which makes my heart beat... #

0:03:590:04:02

-What a great start!

0:04:030:04:04

-# Your strong arms

-Protect me from fear

0:04:070:04:10

-# Oh, protect me from fear... #

0:04:110:04:18

-You sang well.

0:04:210:04:22

-You sang well.

-

-Thank you.

0:04:220:04:24

-You should be more confident.

0:04:240:04:27

-I think you know that song well.

0:04:280:04:30

-I think you know that song well.

-

-No - I learnt it today.

0:04:300:04:31

-Oh, really?

0:04:320:04:34

-It didn't sound like it at all.

0:04:340:04:36

-It didn't sound like it at all.

-

-Oh, thank you.

0:04:360:04:37

-Every time you looked up at us,

-you were beautiful.

0:04:380:04:42

-A lovely lady

-with lots of potential.

0:04:450:04:48

-I'm really happy now.

0:04:500:04:51

-She was good, wasn't she?

0:04:530:04:54

-She was good, wasn't she?

-

-Apart from the key change!

0:04:540:04:56

-Don't be mean!

0:04:560:04:57

-Next up

-is the Safety Co-ordinator, David.

0:05:000:05:03

-All together now!

0:05:110:05:13

-# Evermore #

0:05:140:05:15

-That was fun.

0:05:160:05:18

-And I'm getting paid to do it!

0:05:200:05:23

-Fair enough.

0:05:240:05:25

-I hope I remember it.

0:05:260:05:27

-Rob Pugh is an electrician

-from Dolgellau.

0:05:300:05:33

-I got a Welsh Water apprenticeship

-three years ago.

0:05:340:05:38

-I use the instruments

-and make sure everything works well.

0:05:380:05:42

-I work right across North Wales.

0:05:430:05:45

-The only places I've sung before

-are in the shower and in my van.

0:05:460:05:50

-I look forward to meeting Wynne.

-Fingers crossed it goes OK.

0:05:550:05:59

-Are you looking forward to this?

0:06:000:06:02

-Are you looking forward to this?

-

-No.

0:06:020:06:04

-At least you're honest.

0:06:040:06:06

-At least you're honest.

-

-I'm bricking it!

0:06:060:06:07

-LAUGHTER

0:06:110:06:13

-It's going to be OK.

0:06:130:06:15

-I feel much better now.

0:06:180:06:20

-# O, pure heart so true and tender

0:06:210:06:25

-# Fairer than the lilies white

0:06:250:06:29

-# The pure heart alone can render

0:06:300:06:33

-# Songs of joy both day and night #

0:06:340:06:38

-CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:06:390:06:41

-Get in there!

0:06:410:06:43

-Not bad. Better than I expected.

0:06:430:06:46

-The ending was brilliant.

-He was in the pub by then!

0:06:470:06:50

-I was really nervous. Horrible!

0:06:510:06:53

-Oh, well. It's over now.

0:06:540:06:55

-I remember

-how nerve-wracking auditions are.

0:06:570:07:00

-The next one in

-is extremely nervous.

0:07:030:07:05

-He's been nervous for days.

0:07:060:07:08

-Are you nervous?

0:07:090:07:12

-Massively nervous.

0:07:120:07:14

-I'm Emyr Roberts, I'm 21

-and I'm an apprentice electrician.

0:07:140:07:18

-I sang in eisteddfodau

-when I was young but not since then.

0:07:220:07:26

-This will be a good experience.

0:07:260:07:28

-# O, pure heart so true and tender

0:07:290:07:32

-# Fairer than the lilies white

0:07:320:07:36

-# The pure heart alone can render

0:07:370:07:40

-# Songs of joy both day and night #

0:07:410:07:45

-OK. Great.

0:07:450:07:46

-You need to relax a bit.

-I know it's easy for me to say that.

0:07:470:07:51

-Breathe deeply and not like this.

0:07:510:07:54

-# I ask not... #

0:07:540:07:56

-Part of you is holding you back

-and part of you wants to sing.

0:07:560:08:00

-Thank you.

0:08:010:08:02

-Thank you.

-

-Well done.

0:08:020:08:03

-What do you think, Geraint?

0:08:050:08:07

-That's an example of someone

-who's crippled with nerves.

0:08:080:08:12

-He was full of nerves.

0:08:120:08:14

-The northern auditions

-are almost over.

0:08:170:08:20

-What would you like to sing?

0:08:210:08:22

-What would you like to sing?

-

-Jingle Bells. It's not on the list.

0:08:220:08:26

-I've heard and seen

-a huge variety of singing styles.

0:08:260:08:30

-Do you know I'm A Little Teapot?

0:08:300:08:31

-Do you know I'm A Little Teapot?

-

-No.

0:08:310:08:33

-You sing like this!

0:08:340:08:35

-# I'm a little teapot,

-short and stout #

0:08:350:08:38

-Can Gethin Sharp from Harlech

-give us a perfect finale to the day?

0:08:400:08:45

-# Down by the sea

-My true love's dwelling

0:08:470:08:52

-# Sleeping at night,

-Rising each morning #

0:08:530:08:59

-Well done.

0:09:000:09:01

-If I were choosing, I'd pick him

-because we wants to do it.

0:09:030:09:07

-You are choosing!

0:09:100:09:11

-You are choosing!

-

-Am I? Oh, right!

0:09:110:09:12

-Yes, of course.

0:09:130:09:14

-Cefin and I

-are finally on the same page.

0:09:160:09:18

-Helping some Welsh Water workers

-will wipe that smile off my face.

0:09:190:09:23

-Wynne.

0:09:240:09:25

-Wynne.

-

-Phil.

0:09:250:09:26

-Adam.

0:09:270:09:28

-Hello. How are you?

0:09:290:09:30

-What job do you two do?

0:09:300:09:32

-I'm a little bit nervous

-to be honest.

0:09:320:09:35

-We treat the dirty water

-of the Barmouth area here.

0:09:360:09:39

-So what must I do?

0:09:400:09:42

-So what must I do?

-

-Clean the Lisep unit.

0:09:420:09:43

-You've got to translate

-what he says!

0:09:440:09:47

-Clean a piece of machinery.

0:09:470:09:49

-Oh, great! Come on then.

0:09:490:09:51

-My first job is to help

-Phil and Adam do some cleaning.

0:09:520:09:56

-What do they want me to clean?

0:09:580:10:00

-The sewage is here and this is

-where the big stuff is removed.

0:10:030:10:07

-Wet wipes...

0:10:080:10:09

-Wet wipes...

-

-..tampons, T-shirts, toothbrushes.

0:10:090:10:12

-It's dried and compacted here

-then it's taken to landfill.

0:10:130:10:18

-I'll check it to make sure it's OK.

0:10:190:10:22

-Hmm! Unfortunately,

-this is what I've got to clean.

0:10:220:10:26

-It won't bite you, Wynne.

0:10:280:10:30

-I'm a singer, darling!

-I can't touch that.

0:10:310:10:34

-Oh!

0:10:390:10:41

-Wales's finest sewage!

0:10:410:10:43

-It really stinks!

0:10:440:10:46

-You see? I can get my hands dirty.

0:10:460:10:48

-Finally, we check the quality

-of the filtered sewage water.

0:10:510:10:55

-There are cassettes containing these

-across the cell.

0:10:570:11:01

-Only clean water

-passes through them.

0:11:010:11:05

-Let's take a sample.

0:11:050:11:08

-Chocolate milkshake! How lovely.

0:11:130:11:15

-At the end of the process...

0:11:160:11:18

-..the chocolate milkshake

-becomes clean water.

0:11:180:11:22

-This is the end of the process.

-This water goes out to sea.

0:11:220:11:26

-As you can see, it's quite clean.

0:11:260:11:28

-As you can see, it's quite clean.

-

-It looks great.

0:11:280:11:30

-Barmouth relies on us to release

-the best sample out to sea.

0:11:300:11:34

-It contributes

-towards its Blue Flag.

0:11:340:11:37

-Banner Las is Welsh for Blue Flag.

0:11:370:11:40

-Banner Las is Welsh for Blue Flag.

-

-That's right.

0:11:400:11:41

-Cheers!

0:11:420:11:43

-After the break, I go west

-to meet a tenor who loves dogs...

0:11:460:11:50

-I'll take the dangerous end!

0:11:500:11:53

-..I search for a soprano

-in Cardiff...

0:11:540:11:57

-..and Cefin joins me

-to decide who's in and who's out.

0:12:000:12:03

-Worth the risk, perhaps.

0:12:050:12:05

-Worth the risk, perhaps.

-

-Yes. I think so.

-I'm Wynne Evans

-and I'm tackling a huge challenge.

0:12:130:12:17

-I'm looking for singers

-from three big companies...

0:12:180:12:21

-..to turn them into a choir good

-enough to record a charity single...

0:12:220:12:26

-..and perform with me in concert.

0:12:280:12:31

-I started my journey

-at Welsh Water...

0:12:330:12:35

-..helped by Cefin and Geraint.

0:12:360:12:39

-The first auditions in the north

-were an eye-opener.

0:12:400:12:44

-Are you looking forward to this?

0:12:450:12:45

-Are you looking forward to this?

-

-No. I'm bricking it.

0:12:450:12:48

-Some were star singers.

0:12:490:12:51

-Others didn't shine so brightly.

0:12:530:12:55

-I've got to find some more talent,

-so I'm off to the Swansea Valley...

0:12:570:13:02

-..to see a man about a dog.

0:13:020:13:04

-I'm told he can sing a bit too -

-the man, not the dog.

0:13:050:13:09

-Oh, make that dogs!

-Three huge Great Danes.

0:13:100:13:13

-In you go!

0:13:160:13:17

-Go on!

0:13:170:13:19

-Hello! Come in.

0:13:190:13:20

-Safe?

0:13:220:13:23

-Safe? Of course it's safe.

0:13:230:13:25

-The boss is here - that's me!

0:13:250:13:27

-When Arwyn isn't working

-as a Welsh Water technician...

0:13:290:13:33

-..he's looking after his dogs.

0:13:330:13:35

-They need a bath.

-We have a show coming up.

0:13:380:13:40

-When they said I was working

-with Welsh water...

0:13:420:13:45

-..this isn't what I had in mind.

0:13:460:13:47

-Right! Bath time.

0:13:480:13:49

-Is it a dog or a horse?

0:13:550:13:57

-Some say they're Class A ponies.

0:13:570:14:00

-Come on!

0:14:020:14:04

-You won't slip.

0:14:040:14:05

-Are you sure your little pony

-won't bite me?

0:14:060:14:09

-Do you want to take this end?

0:14:090:14:11

-Yes.

0:14:110:14:13

-I'll take the dangerous end.

0:14:150:14:17

-Are you clean?

0:14:190:14:21

-Arwyn's dogs have been more than

-man's best friend in the past year.

0:14:240:14:29

-He recently lost his wife, Rhian,

-to cancer.

0:14:300:14:33

-If it wasn't for these,

-I don't know what I would have done.

0:14:360:14:40

-They want to be wherever I am.

0:14:420:14:44

-I clean up after them, I feed them

-and I take them for a walk.

0:14:450:14:49

-You had to carry on.

0:14:500:14:52

-I go to choir practise twice a week.

0:14:520:14:55

-That's two evenings filled

-but my dogs are 24/7 things.

0:14:550:15:00

-Being a member of Onllwyn choir

-helped Arwyn through tough times.

0:15:010:15:05

-The choir has been important to me

-for 30 years.

0:15:060:15:09

-I joined the choir

-after we'd been married for a year.

0:15:100:15:14

-It was my get-out clause.

0:15:140:15:16

-"I'm off to choir practise! Ta-ta!"

0:15:170:15:20

-And off I'd go.

0:15:200:15:22

-So, you've got the choir

-and your dogs.

0:15:240:15:27

-Why did you decide

-to be part of this experience?

0:15:270:15:31

-Because I want to sing.

0:15:340:15:36

-On that note, let's go to work.

0:15:380:15:41

-Oh, my favourite thing -

-chocolate mousse!

0:15:430:15:47

-Does Arwyn have the voice

-to be in the choir?

0:15:510:15:54

-The Impossible Dream.

0:15:550:15:56

-The Impossible Dream.

-

-It's a beautiful song.

0:15:560:15:58

-Man From La Mancha.

0:15:580:15:59

-I sing The Impossible Dream.

0:16:000:16:01

-I sing The Impossible Dream.

-

-You can pitch it, then!

0:16:010:16:03

-No way! Good luck.

0:16:030:16:04

-# To dream the impossible dream

0:16:050:16:10

-# To fight the unbeatable foe

0:16:110:16:15

-Let's go to the lab.

0:17:020:17:03

-I think my choir has a new tenor.

0:17:040:17:06

-I enjoyed that audition today.

0:17:110:17:15

-I've only found one woman...

0:17:160:17:18

-..so I'm heading to Welsh Water's

-southern office near Cardiff...

0:17:180:17:24

-..in the hope of finding lots

-of female singers to join my choir.

0:17:240:17:29

-Hello!

0:17:360:17:37

-Is Lucy here, please?

0:17:380:17:39

0:17:400:17:43

-She's female. Good start!

0:17:440:17:46

-Lucy! How are you?

0:17:460:17:48

-Can you help me?

-I need some singers.

0:17:480:17:50

-I can show you around.

0:17:510:17:52

-I can show you around.

-

-Great. Thank you.

0:17:520:17:54

-More women! At last.

0:17:590:18:01

-I need singers.

0:18:040:18:05

-No! Not me.

0:18:070:18:09

-Are you sure?

0:18:090:18:11

-Will you come and audition

-this afternoon?

0:18:110:18:14

-What do I have to sing?

-I can't sing opera!

0:18:140:18:17

-Really?

0:18:170:18:19

-Can you sing opera?

0:18:200:18:21

-Can you sing opera?

-

-I used to.

0:18:210:18:22

-I'm excited! See you later.

0:18:220:18:25

-Two ladies are ready to sing.

0:18:260:18:28

-I also hear Bethan in the office...

0:18:290:18:32

-..loves to sing.

0:18:330:18:34

-You're not Bethan, are you?

0:18:350:18:37

-No. Don't worry. Bethan! Bethan?

0:18:380:18:41

-Bethan?

0:18:410:18:43

-Bethan?

-

-Hello!

0:18:430:18:44

-Bethan, I hear you're a good singer.

0:18:440:18:47

-Who said that?

0:18:480:18:49

-Who said that?

-

-I'm not sure. A little bird.

0:18:490:18:51

-I'd like you

-to audition for me now.

0:18:530:18:56

-OK.

0:18:560:18:58

-I'll stand.

0:18:590:19:00

-Bethan's going to sing for us,

-so if you think she's good, go wild.

0:19:000:19:05

-Show me your wild.

0:19:070:19:08

-Yeah. Like that.

0:19:100:19:11

0:19:210:19:24

-# Well now they know

0:19:250:19:29

-# Let it go, let it go

0:19:290:19:32

-# Can't hold it back any more

0:19:320:19:35

-# I don't care

-what they're going to say

0:19:360:19:42

-# Let the storm rage on

0:19:420:19:45

-# The cold

-never bothered me anyway #

0:19:460:19:48

-Oh, very good.

0:19:540:19:55

-Embarrassed?

0:19:560:19:57

-Embarrassed?

-

-Yeah!

0:19:570:19:59

-There are more women upstairs

-and they're ready to sing.

0:20:000:20:05

-Nayana! How are you?

0:20:090:20:11

-Nayana! How are you?

-

-Hello. I'm good, thanks.

0:20:110:20:13

-Great. What will you sing?

0:20:130:20:15

-Calon Lan.

0:20:160:20:17

-# I ask not for ease and riches... #

0:20:180:20:22

-Stop! Sing out a bit more.

0:20:240:20:26

-Oh, no! You can hear out there.

0:20:260:20:28

-Oh, no! You can hear out there.

-

-Give me a bit more.

0:20:280:20:30

-# I ask not for ease and riches #

0:20:300:20:33

-# Nor earth's jewels for my part #

0:20:340:20:37

-They keep coming through the door

-and they're not bad.

0:20:380:20:41

-There must be

-something in the water!

0:20:420:20:44

-# Nothing but the best for you... #

0:20:450:20:47

-You sing really well.

0:20:480:20:49

-Do you think

-you'd want to sing in a choir?

0:20:500:20:53

-Yes.

0:20:540:20:55

-Yes.

-

-Are you sure?

0:20:550:20:56

-Yes, yes, yes!

0:20:570:20:58

-And one man to finish the day.

0:20:590:21:02

-# Songs of joy both day and night #

0:21:040:21:08

-Look out, Wynne Evans!

0:21:090:21:11

-The Welsh Water auditions are over.

0:21:140:21:17

-It's decision time.

0:21:170:21:19

-Cefin, I need your help.

0:21:190:21:21

-Arwyn.

0:21:220:21:24

-# You colour the flowers... #

0:21:280:21:30

-He's got a voice.

0:21:310:21:33

-Well, you've seen the best.

0:21:330:21:35

-Bethan.

0:21:410:21:42

-# Don't feel.

-Don't let them know #

0:21:430:21:45

-She sang

-in front of the whole office!

0:21:470:21:49

-That takes real guts.

0:21:500:21:53

-David.

0:21:550:21:57

-I'd take a chance on him.

0:21:570:21:59

-He's not one of the best, mind you.

0:22:000:22:03

-Nayana.

0:22:070:22:09

-Every time you sing with them,

-they improve.

0:22:100:22:13

-You give them

-the confidence to sing out.

0:22:130:22:16

-All of a sudden,

-her voice really came out.

0:22:180:22:21

-Gwyn Thomas. I like him.

0:22:240:22:25

-# O, pure heart... #

0:22:260:22:27

-Oh! Several different keys!

0:22:280:22:30

-Many of them enjoy singing

-but I need people who can sing.

0:22:310:22:34

-To be honest, I don't think there's

-great choral material in that voice.

0:22:370:22:43

-My problem is

-I don't want to reject anyone.

0:22:450:22:48

-It's a really difficult task.

0:22:490:22:51

-It was a great help

-reviewing the auditions with Cefin.

0:22:510:22:55

-I'll take 13 people from Welsh Water

-to be members of my choir.

0:22:560:23:00

-I feel a lot better now.

0:23:010:23:03

-The fabulous Bethan is in.

0:23:040:23:05

-Sweet Gethin is in and so is Nayana.

0:23:070:23:11

-Arwyn, the tenor with a voice

-as big as his dogs, is in too.

0:23:110:23:15

-Next time, I get to work

-with Arriva Trains Wales...

0:23:170:23:21

-..and search for more singers.

0:23:210:23:23

-Will their singing go off the rails?

0:23:250:23:27

-I have a voice like a man.

0:23:290:23:30

-I have a voice like a man.

-

-Me too!
