Stephen Morgan MAX BOYCE’S BIG BIRTHDAY Wednesday, September 25, BBC One Wales, 9pm On a very Welsh occasion, BBC Cymru Wales marks Max Boyce’s 70th birthday with a special celebratory programme, recorded in front of a live audience in Cardiff, including a host of rugby stars, past and present. Max Boyce’s Big Birthday, hosted by John Inverdale, uncovers Max the performer and Max the man. The legendary Welsh comedian, singer and entertainer talks about the story of his life. From his early days, enduring terrible working conditions in a pit, to his glory days recording Live at Treorchy, Max shares some of his most treasured moments. In a career spanning 40 years, his songs have captured a changing Wales and enriched people’s lives both culturally and musically. With archive extracts from Max’s television shows, the programme showcases some of the highlights of his distinguished career. There are tribute performances by West End sensation Sophie Evans, singer Cerys Matthews and the next generation of performers, Only Boys Aloud. Stephen Morgan THE INDIAN DOCTOR: THE GOLD RUSH Thursday, September 26, BBC One Wales, 9pm In the second episode of The Indian Doctor, the Thomas brothers set about recruiting villagers for New Trefelin by charming and bullying. Aled and Daf decide they need to do something big to stop Basil’s development plan but Robert surprises Prem by offering him a central role in their grand new scheme. Prem tells Owen that he cannot work in the mine any more because of his health, but a disbelieving Owen decides he needs a second opinion - from his new hero, Dr Robert. When an act of sabotage breaks the village’s calm, Basil Thomas wastes no time in telling Emlyn who he thinks is to blame. Sian decides that farmer Ceri might be worth ensnaring with her feminine charms - at least if he really has come into some unexpected money. Emlyn signs up for a new house in the development, but Megan is far from pleased. And they’re not the only couple to fall out when Prem confronts Kamini over a job offer in Robert’s new surgery. But Prem’s anger is cut short when he discovers that, against his advice, Owen has gone back to work underground - with disastrous results. Written by Catrin Clarke, Rob Gittins and Sian Naiomi, The Indian Doctor was filmed in south Wales at locations including the Rhondda, the Vale of Glamorgan and Blaenavon.

With Britt and the children still missing, a concerned Siôn takes action. Against Garry’s advice, he goes to see the police. Dani gets an earful from Sheryl for keeping her relationship with Garry a secret. It’s obvious their friendship is on shaky ground. Rhys manages to impress everyone on the rugby field, but Gaynor soon realises there’s more behind his growing success than simply pure talent. Kevin tries his best to work at his relationship with Debbie, but is Debbie as eager to save their marriage as he is? And Megan shares some exciting news with the village residents. Sioned Gwyn .

  • Treorchy Male Choir Tour of Scotland 2002
    TREORCHY MALE CHOIR TOUR OF SCOTLAND 2002 By Dean Powell, Publicity Officer & Honorary Archivist TREORCHY’S HIGHLAND ADVENTURES THE Welsh pride themselves in the wonderful camaraderie that exists between fellow Celtic nations. That is the fundamental reason why Treorchy choristers have long-since expressed their eagerness to tour Scotland. It seems hard to believe that although the Choir has entertained audiences the world over, this was its first extensive visit to the country. This was not the first occasion for representatives of Treorchy Male Choir to travel this far north. In fact the original Treorky Choir received an invitation to sing at Edinburgh Castle more than a century ago. Prior to their magnificent royal command performance for Queen Victoria at Windsor in the winter of 1895, the Choir gave a private concert for the Duke of Cambridge at Edinburgh. It was a further fifty years before this Scottish relationship was rekindled in the Rhondda and it took place between two of Britain’s most distinguished choral conductors. John Haydn Davies, the founder-conductor of the re-formed Treorchy Male Choir formed a close bond with Sir Hugh Roberton of Glasgow Orpheus fame while adjudicating a choral competition together in the South Wales valleys during the early 1940s. Their relationship, based on a mutual admiration for demanding musical excellence from their respective choirs, continued for the remainder of their lives. It wasn’t until 1953 that the choral giants of Treorchy and Glasgow were first united however, and this took place between Treorchy and that of the Glasgow Police, whose members included former choristers of the Orpheus.

  • And We Were Singing Hymns and Arias …
    AND WE WERE SINGING HYMNS AND ARIAS ….. More memories from Joe For the third of my lockdown projects, and with the help of Gethin Williams, Keith Warren, Jeremy Wood and Dr Haydn James, I take a look at all the sporting arena performances that the London Welsh Male Voice Choir have been involved in. The Arenas The rehearsals are over. You walk out in your red jackets, heart-thumping, into a half empty stadium and stand on the pitch, pre-match, looking at the vast space of the arena that will, in a short time, be packed to the rafters with fervent supporters. You are performing to a captive audience who’s heart and soul are perfectly in tune with yours and who give you their undivided attention as the atmosphere is ramped up minutes before kick-off. You are privileged to be here, walking on hallowed turf. You feel the excitement and pride of appearing before an expectant nation. You smell the newly cut and watered grass. You hear the roar and stand in unison with your heroes as they walk onto the pitch. There is a moment’s silence as the crowd rises and all eyes are on you, and your eyes are on the conductor, as his baton brings in the band accompaniment before experiencing the spine-tingling emotion of singing your national anthem to an arena packed with rugby fans and a live television audience of millions. You are part of extraordinary matches and witness legends being made, and folklore created in song. You are on the fi eld with The London Welsh Male Voice Choir and you will be part of some of Wales’s most iconic rugby matches in modern times.

  • History of the Choir
    HISTORY OF THE CHOIR Background The Choir, whose Welsh name means ‘Choir of the South African Sons of Wales, was formed in January 1978 by a group of expatriates. Its mission is to promote singing in the manner of Welsh choirs. A non-profit-making organisation made up of amateur choristers, our reward is to give enjoyment to others – as well as ourselves – through the medium of song. The seeds were sown in late 1976 in the Killarney Hotel, Florida, Roodepoort. On Friday nights, about half a dozen of the local Welshmen organised a revival of the Welsh custom of informal sing-songs. In mid-1977, it was decided that the formation of a proper Welsh Choir should be considered. The group started rehearsing in the Durban Deep Gold Mines welfare facility. By the end of the year, the talented Rosa Roos (sadly now deceased) had become involved. Sponsorship was obtained from the Light Horse Regiment and in January 1978, rehearsals moved to the German Hall in the then Rand Show Grounds (now part of Wits University Campus). After at least fifteen hundred concerts, the Choir now has a repertoire encompassing a broad musical spectrum, from opera to spirituals, popular songs to classics, show hits to religious pieces (particularly Welsh hymns). Welsh, English, Zulu, Xhosa, Sotho, Afrikaans, German, Latin, Italian and French, are some of the languages sung. As well as various other concerts, performances have included numerous church services, television, & radio. The Choir also featured in the film ‘Heel Against the Head’. After several changes in rehearsal venues over the years, the Choir now practices on Tuesday evenings at Marks Park Sport Club.
