This interviewee remembers the big television with the small screen the family got in the 50s. Aberfan is discussed and her theory that quite a bit of editing work to a special purpose happens whilst broadcasting anything. She discusses the anti-Welsh attitude of people from Cardiff in the 60s. She talks of the Investiture and her opposition to the occasion to the surprise of her friends in high school. She refers to watching Rugby matches in pubs but says the socialising following the match rather than the game itself was most important. Speaking of the Miners' Strike she says what was being portrayed on television was not what was happening in the Rhondda, and she discusses Arthur Scargill's ruinous actions.
