Golden Boy: Finding Gavin Henson

Golden Boy: Finding Gavin Henson is a BBC Radio Wales podcast exploring one of Welsh sport’s most captivating figures — the brilliant and divisive rugby star Gavin Henson. At a time when rugby ruled Welsh life, Henson became the nation’s biggest celebrity — dazzling, controversial, unforgettable. Broadcaster Gareth Rhys Owen’s search becomes a wider reflection on fame, identity and modern Wales: from the tabloids of the noughties to the social media age. Told through diverse Welsh voices and rich soundscapes, it balances humour, pathos and irreverence with the tension of a story that could fall apart at any moment.
