FROM HTV WALES:
A galaxy of star names combine to make HTV Wales' line-up of Winter programmes one of its most attractive ever.
Philip Madoc presents a four-part series ‘The Real Dad's Army' about the Welsh Home Guard and Ioan Gruffudd appears as presenter of a drama documentary about Harold Lowe, the hero he played in the 1997 film ‘Titanic'.
LAUNCH: Elis Owen, Controller Wales and Director of Programmes
HTV's Boxing Day television première of the feature film ‘The Testimony of Taliesin Jones' has an all-star cast of its own including Jonathan Pryce, Griff Rhys-Jones, Geraldine James, Matthew Rhys, Robert Pugh, the late Ian Bannen in his last film and introduces young Welsh actor John-Paul Macleod.
Tenor Gwyn Hughes Jones and soprano Shân Cothi give stunning performances in two programmes from the North Wales International Music Festival - programmes recorded at St. Asaph Cathedral.
And Swansea-born comedian, John Sparkes is back with another run of his hit comedy series ‘Barry Welsh is Coming'.
There's a chance for you to be a star too - HTV will be talent spotting in Wales in the New Year looking for a new face for 2002 in ‘Presenters'.
There's a strong emphasis on current affairs on HTV in the New Year with the combining of the award-winning ‘Wales This Week' and ‘Sharp End' teams to produce 40 programmes in peaktime throughout 2002.
The popular West Wales resort of Tenby is the star of a six-part series ‘Fun in the Sun' and some unusual love affairs are unearthed in the series ‘Hidden Love'.
Elis Owen, HTV Wales Controller and Director of Programmes, says, “We've put together a strong and varied schedule of programmes for the Winter.
It shows once again the breadth of our coverage and showcases the talent of programme-makers both here in HTV and in the independent sector.
“We continue to have tremendous success with our programming for Wales with programmes like ‘Nuts + Bolts', ‘The Ferret', ‘Welsh in Australia' and ‘Wales This Week' achieving phenomenal viewing figures.”
