+Eclectic Penguin Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Sorry - not a definite for tomorrow, but a probable... A weekend ago I and my family were followed by a camera crew at the South Wales Event for a Welsh language TV company about Geocaching. I understand it's going out tomorrow sometime between 3pm & 4pm on a programme called Wedi3 on the Welsh Language channel S4C. Subtitles for the programme are in English. You may need to activate subtitles in advance (speaking as a Sky+ viewer) Quote
+Eclectic Penguin Posted May 13, 2009 Author Posted May 13, 2009 Hey ho - it got bumped back to next Wednesday at short notice. Quote
+The Mad MG's Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Hey ho - it got bumped back to next Wednesday at short notice. Thanks for that, going to sky+ it Quote
+T.R.a.M.P. Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Hey ho - it got bumped back to next Wednesday at short notice. Not on this week either... Quote
+Eclectic Penguin Posted June 2, 2009 Author Posted June 2, 2009 (edited) It's been confirmed that the segment about Geocaching, filmed at the South Wales event in the Brecon Beacons last month is going out on tomorrow's programme, between 3pm & 4pm on the Welsh language programme Wedi 3 on S4C. Both Sky & Freeview EPG list: "Heddyr goes treasure hunting in the Brecon Beacons with some geocachers." Remember - English language surtitles are available on both Freeview and Sky by turning on subtitles. I apologise in advance (if it's used) about my description of Geocaching at the top of the segment, filmed at home, this is down to my Welsh being a tad rusty having lived in Kent for 13 years. Sky viewers in England Scotland and Northern Ireland can still pick up S4C - I'm unsure of the channel number. I'm sure I heard someone mention that a version will be on youtube or something similar not long after it airs... If you like the look of the South Wales Geocoin being shown on the programme - they're still available at http://www.eclectic-penguin.org.uk/cart Edited June 3, 2009 by Eclectic Penguin Quote

+Matrix Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 (edited) No subtitles at the moment but Welsh geocaching 4 minutes and 38 seconds in Edited June 4, 2009 by Matrix Quote
+T.R.a.M.P. Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 We caught this using Sky - including sub-titles. Well done to everyone concerned. Just one minor nit-pick: the presenter was shown trading a geocoin for some swag - Quote
+Eclectic Penguin Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 Just one minor nit-pick: the presenter was shown trading a geocoin for some swag - I guess I'm to blame for that - we wanted to get a Geocoin into the piece and adding it as an extra item would probably put the piece over time. It's now streamable with in-vision surtitiels for a limited period at: http://www.southwalesgeocachers.co.uk/video/Wedi-3-hiQ.wmv http://www.southwalesgeocachers.co.uk/video/Wedi-3-lowQ.wmv Quote
+Eclectic Penguin Posted June 6, 2009 Author Posted June 6, 2009 Those links didn't work for quite a few people - someone contacted me tonight with this link: It seems that some kind soul has made a YouTube version of the video! Quote
+Lydford Locators Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 Sorry we failed to join you this year - an excellent article - and gave Mr Locator a chance to brush up on his Welsh too! Quote
