Kai OwenGUEST
And one of the producers on Rocketman was Julie Gardner.
Kai OwenGUEST
And it was a BBC Wales production.
Kai OwenGUEST
So I'd sort of seen Julie.
Kai OwenGUEST
I'd never met her, but she'd worked on it and obviously seen my work.
24 MINS LATER
Kai OwenGUEST
They should remember that and they should recognize it.
Kai OwenGUEST
And I think maybe there is some, you know, they should remember that and not forget that.
Kai OwenGUEST
The work that is generated, BBC Wales and all the Bad Wolf Studios, it's all there now.
Kai OwenGUEST
It's great.
Robin MorganHOST
So this is coming out in probably in October, where currently a television show is on BBC iPlayer called Back in the Day, which is a archive show where they get sort of celebrity couples to watch clips and sort of talk about the clips, almost like Gogglebox, but Welsh.
Esyllt SearsHOST
BBC Wales.
Esyllt SearsHOST
BBC Wales.
Robin MorganHOST
And first series, they asked me who I wanted to do it with.
Robin MorganHOST
And I said, Jen.
Mike BubbinsHOST
Do you know what? So, I interviewed Shane on my...
Mike BubbinsHOST
I did a show called Top Fives that I worked for BBC Wales.
Mike BubbinsHOST
People came to my bar and they'd chat about stuff, right? And I got Shane in there about four weeks ago.
Mike BubbinsHOST
Wearing shorts? I was in slippers, but I was wearing jeans.
Dan CumminsHOST
He didn't say it was a ghost or some other entity, but it sure seemed like that was what he thought.
Dan CumminsHOST
Around the same period, a journalist working for the BBC, BBC Wales, Deleth Isaac, came to Hale Van Ogg.
Dan CumminsHOST
She was not there to perform an exorcism or to try and cleanse anyone's aura or search for ley lines.
Dan CumminsHOST
She was there because Bill and Liz Rich were claiming that their farmhouse was consuming an impossible amount of electricity because ghosts were using it to do the things they were doing around the house.
Andrew MulliganHOST
job.
Andrew MulliganHOST
There's also, and Tom reminded me of this one, BBC Wales guest goes viral after leaving an explicit item in the background of a news interview.
MelHOST
What? A toy.
MelHOST
Yeah.
Karl BatesGUEST
I almost ended up on a spreadsheet.
Karl BatesGUEST
If people look, I was getting contacts from BBC Wales.
Karl BatesGUEST
Can you do us a favour? Can you go and cover Swansea at Ipswich? Because it's only 45 minutes up the road.
Karl BatesGUEST
BBC Manchester were asking me to do games online.
India PollockHOST
Who knew then that Coldy would take up so much of my career, of my life? You see, as a journalist, I've been pulled to coldy time and time again.
India PollockHOST
Hi, it's India Pollock here from BBC Wales.
India PollockHOST
Is anybody there, please?
India PollockHOST
It was nine years ago when I first worked on this story for the BBC.
India PollockHOST
Hi, it's India Pollock here, BBC Wales.
India PollockHOST
Is anyone able to have a quick chat with me, please?
India PollockHOST
Little did I know then how wide the ripples of that initial story would run.
Phil HiltonGUEST
And I also was applying for jobs at the time.
Phil HiltonGUEST
And I applied for a job at BBC Wales.
Phil HiltonGUEST
And they made amazing promotional trailers for programmes.
Phil HiltonGUEST
Really creative and funny.
Phil HiltonGUEST
I was working seven days a week by this point.
Phil HiltonGUEST
I had Radio Merseyside work.
Phil HiltonGUEST
I had Granada freelancing and I had BBC Wales freelancing as well.
Phil HiltonGUEST
And occasionally they would throw a shift at me where I operated the equipment.
Luke WaltersPANELIST
I'm happy staying in Wales.
Luke WaltersPANELIST
BBC Wales brought you back.
Luke WaltersPANELIST
So looking at it then, so the criteria that is UK production companies only, not a preference for a Welsh production company.
Luke WaltersPANELIST
It's UK only.
Luke WaltersPANELIST
So a company in Manchester can go and pitch for it realistically.
Luke WaltersPANELIST
And if they get it, they can be like, well, we'll bring it up to Manchester.
Luke WaltersPANELIST
But the BBC, if, for example, BBC Studios go in and they say, we've got this idea, but we want to use Rose Lock and it's BBC Wales, then absolutely I'll stay in Wales.
Luke WaltersPANELIST
But it's not a preference in terms of Welsh production companies.
Ciarán McGillivaneGUEST
I mean, if we were to lose 60% of the staff involved in the Talkback team, for instance, and that was outsourced, would that team, would that show be able to still produce the high-quality programme that it does? I don't think so.
Ciarán McGillivaneGUEST
So it's the proportionality of these cuts, and it's, as I said, if we already compare what's already, I know that there will be cuts facing BBC Alba, BBC Cymru, but the starting position of those two are much higher.
Ciarán McGillivaneGUEST
BBC Alba, for instance, is currently putting out 90 hours a week of production.
Ciarán McGillivaneGUEST
Currently, before these cuts, we were getting five hours a week.
