Wales and Britain

Episode 6 of 6

Huw Edwards reviews how the country changed after World War Two. The people of Wales make their mark on politics and sport, and the nation's sense of history is revived.

Huw Edwards presents this major television history of Wales, showing the country in ways it has never been seen before.

In the last 70 years, Wales has changed more rapidly than ever. In this final episode, a Welshman battles to set up Britain's most cherished institution, the British parliament votes to drown a Welsh valley, a new generation of sporting heroes sets the flags waving, and television itself becomes part of the story of Wales. We're a nation of commuters and consumers, but our sense of history has revived: we are a people with a story - and that story gives us power.
