Ni wrth ein boddau bod Mared wedi ennill y wobr RTS Cymru am Seren Sy’n Codi! Ma’ hi’n anhygoel, mor dalentog ac yn angerddol, a ni ‘di caru gweithio gyda hi. Llongyfarchiadau Mared – buddugoliaeth haeddiannol iawn! 👏

Diolch yn fawr hefyd i Llinos Wynne am awgrymu Mared fel cyflwynydd ar gyfer ein cyfres, Y Frwydr Stori Anabledd, sy’n archwilio hanes anabledd yng Nghymru. Roedd y tîm cynhyrchu’n anhygoel, a gallwch wylio’r gyfres ar S4C Clic a iPlayer. ▶️

Wow, what an extraordinary reaction to Whites Only: Ade’s Extremist Adventure.

Everyone from Auntie-ji to the bloke down the road had a view, even if they hadn’t seen the film. There were the dreadful racists and anti-disabled people at one end of the spectrum. At the other: the hardline cancel culture crowd - "quick to judge and slow to question". In between, there was every shade of political opinion, some absolutely spot-on and others way, way off the mark. All the newspapers reported on it, some even doing major feature articles the day after transmission.

Here’s Ade’s response to the keyboard warriors (from the Guardian's website). And here’s a tiny sample of some of the many amazing comments across the socials…

“Brilliant, powerful TV.”

“Shocking. The documentary is journalism at its finest."

“Fantastic, fascinating doc - you are fearless & brilliant in your interviewing, it was wonderful to watch you. Thank you.”

“Wow. I am astounded. I have sat here and cried, I've raged. You handle every question, every comment with such grit and courage…But what hurt me was that the other people around that church, you literally dined with some of them and no one spoke out. Thank you for encouraging myself and others to speak out against injustice.”

“This programme was excellent. I think your relaxed approach was absolutely right as it allowed the residents to speak openly and viewers to reach their own conclusions. Being overtly critical and aggressive would have resulted in no one speaking to you at all. I think your conclusion that they are still in shock at losing the power of the apartheid era was spot on.”

“I liked the subtlety and the dignity of this programme. You handled it so well when, as was shown, just a few words out of place, any revelation of the truth, made them close up and close in. Their twisted way of looking at things, particularly history, made me feel sick.”

“Brave and brilliant documentary!“

"Wow. What a documentary. So, so informative. You have opened peoples eyes and started discussions.”

If you’ve not had a chance to watch the film, do catch up on Channel 4...

Creating formats is one of the hardest things in television. It can be a real brain ache, baffling at times, a complex mix of science and art, a Rubik’s cube of mentally twisting and turning, sometimes endlessly. Definitely best done as a team, with everyone chipping in, with their different perspectives. But wow, when you get there! Yay! Here’s a step-by-step guide that demystifies the whole process, put together by three brilliant, passionate practitioners: Catriona Miller, Hazel Marshall and Linda Green. Our CEO Narinder Minhas is one of TV producers interviewed in the book. Do check it out and bring us one of your killer ideas 👀
