Duration: 1 hour

First broadcast: on BBC One Wales HDLatest broadcast: on BBC One Wales

Tonight's edition of the new debate show for Wales comes from Llanelli and takes on the subject of social class. Does it still matter in modern Wales? Can your social class hold you back or give you a leg up? Do where you live, the school you went to, your accent and what your parents did still have an impact on what people think of you? Some say that we are less socially mobile than we used to be - and that if you are born into poverty your chances of 'moving on up' are affected for life. But others say so long as you are prepared to work hard you can do well for yourself and your family. Presenter Catrin Nye tracks the twists and turns of the argument, while reporter Steffan Powell keeps a finger on the pulse of social media. Show less
