Radio drama from Wales

With five plays from BBC Wales due to air on BBC network radio over the next two months, the BBC is celebrating the strength of a drama department that has also produced Doctor Who and Torchwood for network TV.

"It is not just the volume of BBC Wales's radio drama output over the past 12 months that has been so impressive, but also the variety," said Clare Hudson, Head of English Language Programmes, BBC Wales.

"The writers featured have come from Wrexham to Rhayader and from west Swansea to Western Australia... Some of the writers have been writing for decades; some are comparatively new writers whose talents have been developed through the BBC's partnership with Ty Newydd, the National Writers' Centre for Wales."
