MISSION IMPOSSIBLE

Poet Ifor ap Glyn is a man on a mission. His challenge? To journey round Wales using Welsh alone, but will he be successful in your area..?

 

Programme 5, Friday, 2 December, 2005

Gwent - 3% yn siarad Cymraeg yn 1991. 10% yn siarad Cymraeg yn 2001

Betws y Coed – 55.8% Welsh speakers in 2001
Conwy – 33.2% Welsh speakers in 2001

Nearing the end of his challenge, and time for a breather. Tonight, Ifor decides to take a little holiday by the sea - in Llandudno! With less than a quarter of the town's population able to speak Welsh, it could well prove to be quite a taxing break - especially since he's intrigued to find out if people's reaction to him alters away from the camera's gaze. Little do they know that Ifor has a secret camera hidden in his jacket!

As he continues with the experiment in Conway, will Ifor find it tough going or will he be pleasantly surprised?
