	We were taken around by the actress who plays Stacey Jones (Shelley Rees) and some of the production team. Shelley was fantastic. She chatted for ages with us all. I had a great chat with her about Keeping Faith. She will be in later episodes as a baddie! http://www.sainou.com/shelley-rees/ I had my photo taken with her as well as in every Pobol Y Cwm builing - inside and out :-D

	Maddie, Pobol Y Cwm is a Welsh Language Soap based in the area of Carmarthenshire that I live in but now is filmed in Roath Lock Cardiff. It means People of the Valley

	Yes Belle. I started watching it many years ago and my Welsh has come on in leaps and bounds. I would be fluent if I had someone to talk in Welsh too :-(

	Ah, thanks Jem. Is it a 'rolling soap' like Emmerdale or Corrie? I mean does it carry on all year long?

	We also talked about Hidden. She said she had to watch it in the daytime cos it would give her nightmares. That's despite her having worked for years with Gillian Elisa (who played the mother) in Pobol Y Cwm :-D Lots of Keeping Faith people were also in the soap

	While we are eating lunch, we watch Classic Corrie most days. The MacDonalds have just moved into the Street. Jim, Liz and the boys as teenagers. Liz looks a bit different, and there is a completely different Tracey Love. Ken has just walked out on Diedre. Amazing how many in the old series are still in the current one.

	Bit of info for you Mers Keeping Faith was filmed first of all in Welsh as Un Bore Mercher. Eve Myles is not a Welsh speaker so had to learn her lines in Welsh. When I complimented the actresses who play Faith's daughters Shelley said that they have never ever acted before. They didn't want to cast stage school types and picked them from local schools
