The water from a remote Welsh hamlet that's ended up starring in some of the world's biggest shows and films

You could say that one of Wales' most prolific Hollywood movie and TV stars is unknown by many, hasn't won any Oscars, Baftas or Emmys and is possibly nameless to the millions of viewers who have watched them on screen for the past three decades.

That's because that star is an iconic bottle of water, produced by Tŷ Nant in Bethania, Ceredigion, and, if you're a keen-eyed Welsh film nerd you'll have spotted the unmistakable sleek, deep blue glass bottle in the background of loads of big screen movies and world-famous TV shows.

The cobalt blue bottle has been seen quenching the thirst of stars since the 1990s after it was first launched in 1989 at the Savoy Hotel followed 10 years later by its crimson red counterpart, which has also appeared in on-screen fridges.
