Pembrokeshire presenter to appear on Christmas TV special

A rising Pembrokeshire radio and television star is set to feature in a popular TV show this Christmas.

Mirain Iwerydd, 21, from Crymych, will appear in a special edition of Gogglebocs Cymru on S4C, which will air on December 27.

She will join housemate, comedian Melanie Owen, to share their thoughts on a range of holiday TV programmes.

The show will feature other well-known personalities from entertainment, music, cooking, and sport.

Comedian Tudur Owen will host the show as usual.

Ms Iwerydd, a versatile presenter with weekly shows on BBC Radio Cymru, regularly appears on the S4C magazine programme Heno.

She said she is thrilled to be part of the Gogglebocs ‘Dolig line-up.

Ms Iwerydd said: “It will be my first celebrity show and I can’t wait.

“It will be a lot of fun.

“Gogglebocs ‘Dolig will be no different to what we normally do when we’re relaxing in front of the TV.

“We watch and pass comments on what’s on and I’m sure there will be plenty of giggles.”

The cast members are not aware of the programmes that will be chosen for their review.

Ms Iwerydd said: “I’m really looking forward to Christmas on television this year.

“There are some fantastic programmes going to be shown.

“There’s a new episode of Outnumbered, a new Wallace and Gromit film and of course the finale of Gavin & Stacey.

“Like everybody else I want to know how things pan out.

“There are some wonderful characters and I hope there’s a happy ending.”

Former rugby player Scott Quinnell will also appear on the show.

He will join influencer Gareth Wyn Jones.

Mr Quinnell, who now runs a business selling homemade candles, said: “I’m always met at Gareth’s with a paned and a mince pie.

“I’m treated like a king and it’s great fun just to sit and jangle with Gareth.

“I don’t always agree with what he says but we always have fun.”

Mr Jones, a regular face on television with three million subscribers on his YouTube channel, promised to “tell it as it is” when discussing the TV shows with Mr Quinnell.

He said: “Scott and I will have a good laugh and a bit of banter watching the programmes but we may not agree on everything.

“Scott has firm views on some things and so do I so I’m sure there will be time when we have to agree to disagree.”

Series producer Euros Wyn said the Christmas special will include several cast members from last year’s festive edition.

Gogglebocs Dolig will be broadcast on S4C on December 27 at 9pm.

English subtitles will be available and the programme can also be viewed on S4C Clic, BBC iPlayer and other streaming platforms.
