Alex Jones has spoken candidly on how the Welsh language and her home town of Ammanford helped her get to where she is today. The Welsh presenter has been a familiar face on BBC's The One Show for 12 years.
In a special series on S4C, the Ammanford-born star makes an emotional return to her home town where she learns about the history of the language, her family and the current situation of the language today. During Stori'r Iaith, which will see other Welsh stars look at their relationship with the Welsh language, Alex speaks of how important her Welsh background was to her, especially now living in London.
During the programme, she says: "It’s really odd because some people don’t understand anything about the Welsh language. Some people at work think it's funny that I speak this completely different language. At the start, people would look at me as if I had two heads whenever I’d be talking Welsh over the phone and stuff.
