Nes Daw'r Wawr

Narrated by Cerys Matthews and originally broadcast on Remembrance Day, Nes Daw'r Wawr is a raw, realtime audio play following three Welsh soldiers on a fateful night during the First World War. When the youngest rookie is fatally wounded during a trench raid, his fellow Welshmen refuse to leave his side. Lost and scared in the muddy darkness of No Man's Land, the young squadron keep their spirits up by sharing memories and singing songs. But when a nearby German soldier overhears them, the Welsh boys must forge a unique truce to ensure they live to see the dawn.
