Monday 29th September 2008
The TV series Yr Afon (Rivers & Life) is being shown on S4C on Monday evenings at 9pm from 29th September until 3rd November. Each programme is repeated the following Sunday at 7.30pm. Music for the series is by John Hardy and Hugh Fowler at John Hardy Music.
Six of the world's greatest rivers are the focus of an ambitious, visually-striking documentary series presented by six different Welsh personalities. From the Amazon to the Nile and from the Ganges to the Rhine, the programmes tell the story of the rivers, the people who depend on them, and their environmental impact.
Singer-songwriter Cerys Matthews follows the trail of 'Ol' Man River' in the first programme in the series.
