Dr John Davies
Looking back is what Dr John Davies does best, and the eminent historian, author and broadcast speaks frankly to Heledd Cynwal about his upbringing, career and sexuality.
John is seen welcoming students to Pantycelyn Hall, Aberystwyth where he was warden for eighteen years as he recalls the experience of living with an extended family of 300 students.
He explains why he's known as John Bwlchllan, despite his Rhondda origins and reveals his passion for travelling to India. With archive clips from Newquay in the 50s, Treorchy in the 80s and the Welsh Language Society's first protest in 1963, John takes us on an interesting and emotional journey back to the past.
