A special episode of Colleen Ramsey’s new cookery series Colleen Ramsey: Bywyd a Bwyd will be among the feast of programmes that make up this year’s S4C Christmas schedule.
Colleen is a cookery writer and presenter and is married to Wales’ football team captain Aaron Ramsey. The pair have three children. Announcing the special Christmas episode, Colleen said, “For me, there’s nothing better at Christmas than the whole family coming together and enjoying special festive food around the table.
“I’m looking forward to celebrating with Aaron and the family at home this year, and excited to welcome the S4C audience into the kitchen to see favourite Christmas recipes such as feta and honey parcels, tiramisu trifle and of course mince pies. Come along on the 20th of December – see you there!”
Also topping the schedule is Carol yr Ŵyl 2023, with presenters Mared Williams and Elidyr Glyn interview the composers of the 10 new carols competing to win the title this year, with special performances of the carols by primary school choirs. O’r Diwedd is a show packed full of hilarious and satirical sketches written by Tudur Owen, Sian Harries and Gareth Gwynn.
