Jayde Adams loving 'best ever TV job' after embarking on Welsh journey

Jayde Adams has gushed about landing the "best TV job she's ever done" after learning a new skill in Wales. The Bristolian comedian, who takes pride in her Bedminster roots, thrilled the nation with her ballroom dancing on Strictly Come Dancing last autumn, and has now gone on another learning journey in view of camera crews.

University of Glamorgan alumni Jayde, 38, starred in the latest episode of Welsh broadcaster S4C's "Iaith ar Daith", a series which follows Welsh celebrities, or those with Welsh links, as they try and learn the country's native language. Comedian and actor Geraint Rhys Edwards joined Jayde on a linguistic road trip across the country that lies at the other end of the Severn crossings to Jayde's hometown.

Geraint was by Jayde's side as she attempted to pick up the notoriously difficult to learn language for English speakers, with the Ruby Speaking star facing a number of challenges along the way in the episode that aired on Sunday (June 11). At the beginning of the show, Jayde tries her best to learn some Welsh phrases as she sets out a goal for herself.
