Wynne’s Welsh 70s: 1975 airs Friday 9 June 2023 on BBC One Wales

A horse whisperer, a man sleeping on a bed of nails, and a communal toilet in Newtown are just a few of the strange news stories that Wynne recalls from 1975. Carmarthen is full of historical attractions, such as its coracle fishermen, Welsh cakes, and harp makers.

Famous south Wales band Sassafras perform on the hipster haven The Old Grey Whistle Test, and The Goodies look back on their comedic past in a throwback episode. People in the area discuss their hopes and fears for the coming year and their experiences adjusting to the new European units of measurement.
