Gogglebocs Cymru's first episode sparks hilarious memories of Llangrannog campsite

The first episode of Gogglebocs Cymru has been aired to mark S4C's 40th birthday celebrations - and it brought back plenty of Welsh childhood memories for both the cast and viewers. The new series, based on Channel 4's Gogglebox, featured friends and families all over Wales as armchair critics - just like Channel 4's Gogglebox.

And the first episode, which was aired on Wednesday, November 2, was filled with golden TV moments, including a programme about Gwersyll Llangrannog in Ceredigion.

As they watched clips from Nol i'r Gwersyll, which starred singer Cleif Harpwood and presenter Angharad Mair, the cast got the chance to go back in time by looking at what Llangrannog - a residential learning destination for schools - looked like in the '70s. The show sparked all kinds of memories of that decade for the Gogglebocs cast members, including listening to the Welsh rock band Edward H. Dafis and wearing flares.
