The Story of Wales: Season 1, Episode 6

1 - 6: Wales and Britain

In the last seventy years, Wales changes more rapidly than ever. In this final episode, a Welshman battles to set up Britain's most cherished institution, the NHS, 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. The Welsh are a nation of commuters and consumers, but their sense of history is revived: they are a people with a story - and that story gives them power.
