Not smooth, in tonight's story of Cymru/Wales an expert on the Normans contradicted the narrative by informing us that through them we became acquainted with the wider world, when only just before we were told that 500 years earlier the king of Brycheiniog was importing cloth from the great silk road; last time, the contradiction came from an expert on the Romans who informed us that they introduced us to civilization just after we were told that our merchants were trading throughout Europe 2000 to 3000 years previously. Huge holes, completely skipping Llywelyn Fawr for one amongst many. Llywelyn ap Gruffydd was not the last native Prince of Wales, Owain Glyndwr was, although he was in competition with another in London; and there is no such place as Langorse Lake; Llangors is a village skirting Llyn Syfaddan, ancient home of the swans of Princes. As I said, more 5pm than 9pm.
