She examines the festival's claims that the Liverpool scene owes its strength to migrant Celtic talent; previews a 1918 drama-documentary on the life of Lloyd George and discovers why so many Hollywood blockbusters are made in the mountains of Snowdonia.
Her guests include Karl Francis, John McGrath and Kevin Brownlow.
