I was born in 1966. In my late 20s I was talking about the 1960s to a guy who was two decades older than me. I said, "I feel like I missed something." He said, "You did."
I lived in Cardiff in the sixties, this is how Wales was back then. I loved the whole thing it brought back so many memories. I am now looking for Part 2.
This is just about South Wales! I'm from the North and we didn't have the 11 plus. Anglesey had four comprehensive schools. I started at the Holyhead one in 1958. We were not well off and had no money for records or concerts. The radio was permanently tuned to the Welsh programmes. I knew very little about pop music. This programme does not mention real Welsh culture at all - male voice choirs, penillion singing, the Eisteddfod etc. It also has the usual BBC bias against Christianity.
I am from LLanrumney and unfortunately passed the 11 plus. Had to go to Howardian, never played with the kids in the street again! Andy lived up past the top shops, I lived down the bottom. Mind you it was only 5 minutes from the Countryside and stuff all like Tiger Bay that media folks keep banging on about! :-)

yea it is for the most part. I cannot say for sure but I feel like most Welsh kids couldnt have so much fun back then. I certainly hope they did but... Was it possible? Did very many Welsh kids have the money for this kinda stuff? Going to shows and whatnot. Cheesy documentary anyway

it is so dreary the emphasis on Tiger Bay when so many estates existed.

Wales? Yes Cardiff, Cardiff, Cardiff.
A predjudiced one sided typical BBC view of life.

6:33 llanrumney may have been a long way from cardiff centre, but it WAS still within cardiff boundary. Us llanrumnians were still Cardiffians lol!
Where is part 2???
Oh yeah, the 60's. Oh no this 2022 isn't a patch on the old decade.beam me back ! I've seen enough !

The Beatles were so overrated and their music was boring!
Doctor ~ you need to do a little more !
What? Doctor Dolittle you need to see a Doctor fast
Obviously “not there”, doc.
@Christopher Wackrow I beg to differ
Utterly unrepresentative
sadly betrayed the WELSH language and you end up with no welshness .
BBC crap
