Cyril Gwynn (1897-1988), also known as The Bard Of Gower, was “a tall, sunburnt, unsmiling farmer”.

Gareth Gwynn (1983-Present) is none of these things.

Gareth did not spend the First World War in the Merchant Navy, nor has he ever been shipwrecked, run a farm or tried to emigrate to Australia - but he's found a book of poems by his great-grandfather, and he's determined to find something they have in common.

This is also a comedy show about living in a city when your ancestors thought tarmac was all a bit much.

Gwynn (1983 ed.) has written for The News Quiz, The Now Show, Have I Got News For You and many more. He is the co-writer of Ankle Tag (BBC Radio 4), Tourist Trap (BBC One Wales) and The Goodies: The Big Ben Theory (An Audible Special). On BBC Radio 4 he presented Gareth Gwynn Hasn’t Fin- ("Hilarious" - The Guardian) and is the co-presenter of the multi-award nominated comedy/history podcast I'm So Not Over It.

This is still a work-in-progress, but also, some of it is over 80 years old - so it’s safe to say, those bits are run-in. It probably balances out.
