been shown with fascination with celebrity as we see here on the

streets. Hello, good evening. The family of a

disabled man, who died after a routine operation, have been told

they can have an inquest - nearly a year after his death. Timothy Cowen

underwent a gall bladder operation last April at Wrexham Maelor

Hospital. Anna Bailey reports. A childhood illness left Tim Cowen

unable to swallow or walk and he had to be fed through a stomach tube. He

went to Wrexham Maelor Hospital for a routine gall bladder operation on

the 23rd April last year, and was discharged on the 25th. A few days

later he was taken into A He died on the 2nd May. The initial death

certificate said Mr Cowen died from pneumonia as a consequence of

cerebral palsy. His family said they weren't aware he had the condition

and requested an independent post-mortem. A review was launched

by Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board, which runs the hospital. Now, nearly

one year on, the final report is ready and an inquest can be held. We

need closure. Timothy was, despite all his personal challenges - they

have been well documented - lived a very full and contented and happy

life. Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board have already apologised for the

delay. Since then, it has met with Mr Cowen's family to discuss their

investigation. Its findings will be made public at the inquest. We could

have had a result by now. We could have had the inquest completed by

now. Any recommendations, which flowed from that, would be in place

by now. But, frankly, it's going to be another six to nine months before

anything positive can come out of Tim's death last May. That just is

unacceptable. Mr Cowen's family say they still have questions about his

death. They hope to gain answers at the inquest, which is expected to

take place in the next few months. A 21-year-old man has died after

falling on Snowdon. The man and a friend had reached the summit

yesterday afternoon, but took a wrong turn down. It's understood

they tried to turn back, when the man fell 500 feet. Very tragic

circumstances when we're surrounded with this very beautiful weather and

so many people enjoying themselves, but a tragedy like this could occur

with so many people in that vicinity. A real tragic event and

obviously our thoughts are with the family. The Archbishop of Wales has

drawn on stories from conflicts in Syria and Rwanda in his Easter

message. Dr Barry Morgan has put forgiveness and solidarity at the

heart of his address, which he says illustrates the meaning of Easter.

The first is from the city of Homs in Syria, where a parish priest

refused to leave that city although it was besieged. And although there

was hunger there, he was under-fire. He said, I've been with the people

in their good times, I have to remain there during the bad times.

He was killed this week. That reminds me of the solidarity of God

in Jesus Christ, whatever people do to him. The Welsh Rugby Union is set

to appoint its first woman board member in its 133-year history. It's

understood to be one of the main recommendations of a review into the

way Welsh Rugby Union is run that started two years ago. Member clubs

will vote on the proposals in October. Football and Cardiff City

missed an opportunity to boost their Premier League survival hopes, they

could only manage a 1-1 draw at home against Stoke. Meanwhile, a Wilfried

Bony penalty in stoppage-time ensured Swansea crept closer to

safety securing a 2-1 win over Newcastle. In the Conference,

Wrexham are 16th in the table after a goalless draw with Chester. Let's

take a look at the weather forecast for Wales, here's Owain Wyn Evans.

Most of us have seen some brightness. Clear spells across the

country. A dry night, because of the clear spells, the temperatures will

fall low. Cloud pushing in from the east, the South West and the

north-west remaining clearer. Over night lows between three and six

Celsius. It will be a cloudy and grey start tomorrow. Some brightness

in the north-west. Then the showers push in from the east. The heaviest

of the showers likely to be concentrated across parts of south

Wales. Temperatures tomorrow 12-15 Celsius. A breezy day across Wales.

As the low pressure moves away on Monday, it will drag this cold front

behind it. It will introduce showers across the country. The story for

this week, sunshine and showers. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

That's Wales Today. We'll be back at 6.50pm tomorrow evening. Thanks for

watching. Bye. Good evening. The temperature

reached 18 degrees in the sunshine across parts of the Scottish
