One of BBC Cymru Wales's most ambitious series ever, The Story of Wales traces the history of the Welsh nation from 30,000 years ago to the present day.

Huw Edwards said: "I am aware that working on this series — a once- in-a-generation event — is a real privilege. Above all, The Story of Wales needs to engage audiences in Wales and beyond. After all, we have a great story to tell."

    “Rather a shame that a fine looking series is spoilt by some pretty major mistakes. I'd note in particular the omission of the country's greatest king!

    Gruffudd ap Llywelyn (d. 1063) was the only man to rule all of Wales and his reign was key in the transformation from kingdom to principality. The series, though, jumps straight from the reign of Hywel Dda (d. 949/50) to 1066!”
