A two part farce written by Gareth Gwynn to mark the 100th anniversary of the first public broadcast in Wales, and based on what we genuinely know about the goings-on behind-the-scenes during the first year of 5WA - the Welsh wing of the (then) British Broadcasting Company.

Expect to hear naked orchestra members, drunk station managers and a studio full of eggs. Plus one or two bits we'll have to make-up, just so it sounds believable.
