Just to add to the confusion caused by the digital gremlins, many of the pictures are upside down on my iPad. The subjects are plainly not antipodeans, and I have no doubt that all the photographers and editors were, as ever, stone cold sober, so it can only be the ubiquitous "technical problems".

There's clearly something weird going on ... but I've no idea whether it's me, the internet, Christian fundamentalists or Islamic terrorists...

I always think Welsh sounds really weird when you get the occasional English word thrown in here and there! Good to see Mark not speaking Welsh. And, although I couldn't recognise Wil from his avatar pic, having seen the TV piece I now know who he is, and remember him well from last year, especially from the yoof workshop, where it was obvious he knew what he was doing. Hi Wil!

Thanks for the link Leo. Great to watch and even better when I remembered to switch on the English subtitles  |

The subtitles were interesting - esp that Mark's words were given English subtitles (wouldn't Welsh have been more logical?) and that in the second part of the piece, in the pub, several minutes of Welshspeak were reduced to a couple of sentences of English. It was also fascinating to learn that John Rainbone was there last year!  Keith |

Seeing as how Mark always seems to be taking the P it was good to see the Welsh giving him one back |
