Huw Edwards

The interviewee says that his television was a piece of furniture in itself, bought from Bennets-Williams in Caernarfon. They watched every programme for children when they first got a television. He remembers nationalists succeeding to broadcast political messages after normal broadcasting had ended, their voices could be heard through the television. The interviewee feels that Tryweryn did not receive the attention it deserved on television. It had a great impact on his Welshness and its shadow was over the Investiture ceremony in 1969. He would watch rugby matches at home with the children mostly. He felt that the broadcasting during the Miners' Strike showed the darker side of the strike, felt that the union leaders had too much influence over the miners and it was they who were suffering eventually.
