Not sure if this has been posted already ........

A NEW television series will showcase the remarkable stories and wonderful scenery along North Wales’ stunning coastline.

ITV’s Sean Fletcher explores the 870-mile Wales Coast Path on an epic adventure along one of the world’s most unique coastlines.

The first episode takes viewers to the dramatic landscapes of the North Wales coast, from the Talacre Dunes to Great Orme, to discover the unique wildlife and vibrant communities.

The new series captures the unique stories and biodiversity along the Welsh coastline, which is home to vibrant communities, breathtaking scenery and rare wildlife.

The Wales Coast Path remains committed to conversing the path’s coastal environments, whilst promoting the positive benefits of walking.

Given the current coronavirus situation, the Wales Coast Path encourages audiences to enjoy the series from the comfort of their own home and plan to visit Wales later.

The series, Wonders of the Coast Path, will air weekly on ITV Wales from April 27 at 8.30pm before airing nationally in the summer from July 2020.

Re: Favourite TV Shows.....Killing Eve fans

A surprise for "Killing Eve" fans........

A MOCHDRE based teddy bear company has revealed it made a 'killing' out of the popular cult psychological drama Killing Eve.

Be My Bear, located at Mochdre Business Park, supplied hundreds of bears and outfits to Sid Gentle Films Ltd, the producers of the show, during the filming of scenes in London last year.

Their bulldogs and bears sporting Union Jack t-shirts were featured in the opening episode but in episode three, a whole scene is given over to their cuddly celebrities.

Assassin Villanelle visits their 'shop', stuffed full of Be My Bear teddies and friends, and records a message for her adversary Eve which she then places into one of the pink teddies and delivers to Eve’s home in the latest twist in their cat and mouse relationship

I saw the TV programme Long Last Families again last night and it was about "foundlings" children abandoned and it's fascinating how the advancement in DNA techniques has helped some of the children trace their biological parents.
It must give a lot of hope to those people who are trying to find their relatives

I've been watching some episodes of "I'm a celebrity"  and saw this article in the Daily Post today and I wonder if there is any truth in it?
I've got all the doors and windows shut at night and it's still cold inside the house so what would it be like in the castle?

Just as they did with the abseiling at the outset, they're not risking the celebrities' health or safety so there is heating there; probably space heating as they have in garages.

I noticed that too Ian.      At Penmon you could see four of the celebrities looking down the cliff at their camp mate but the actual rope was many yards away from them.
In the trials last night Ant and Dec may as well have been in the tunnels with the celebrities for all the help and clues they were giving the contestants

We watched a show over Xmas, with Bradley Walsh reviewing old game shows, there was a clip with Terry Wogan hosting Blankety Blank,
talking to a contestant, who's name tag read Tom, when asked for his full name he said Moore............ a quick search confirmed my thoughts............

You Tube video      Colonel Tom Moore appears on Blankety Blank with Terry Wogan  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lN4UmP5hb3Y

TV fanatics will continue to have free access to channels including ITV2, Dave and E4 for another decade as Freeview licences have been renewed.

Ministers have said Public service and commercial broadcasters can continue to deliver content free-to-air to audiences across the UK after ministers decided the Freeview platform will be supported until at least 2034.

As such, free access for viewers to digital TV channels is protected into the next decade.

The government has given Ofcom the power to renew the five national multiplex licences for the Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) platform.

TV multiplexes are digital networks which allow several TV channels to be compressed and transmitted at the same time over a single radio frequency.

Just a reminder for anyone that is interested.      On ITV Wales tonight at 8.00 pm is "The Pier"  and it's about the Llandudno Pier so it should be well worth watching or recording            $good$

I enjoyed watching it last night and it was a good advert for the town.    I think that there are 5 more episodes to watch so I'm looking forward to seeing them
