Terwyn Davies - BBC Radio Cymru

BBC Radio Cymru

In October 1999, whilst still at University, Terwyn joined the BBC Radio Cymru presenting team where he co-presented Gang Bangor, a youth music programme, with Dylan Wyn and Owain Gwilym. In 2000, he acquired a new partner - Stephen Edwards and both continued to present Gang Bangor, before it was replaced by C2. An attempt to launch a Welsh language version of Radio Caroline in the Menai Straits was however abandoned.

Terwyn co-presented the late-night slot on C2 every Thursday and Friday between 11pm - 1am with Stephen Edwards and Jeni Lyn, and also on Saturday mornings between 10.30am - 12.30pm. Later, the slot was changed to a later time of 12.30pm - 2.00pm, this time under the Steve a Terwyn branding. .

In October 2007, Steve and Terwyn's programme came to an end. He spent a month working at a KIbbutz.

Terwyn is still a regular voice on BBC Radio Cymru, contributing sometimes to the Caryl Parry Jones and Dafydd Du programme. He also is a stand-in presenter of BBC Radio Cymru's daily early-morning farming news bulletin, and on the Geraint Lloyd programme when Dei Tomos and Geraint Lloyd are away on holiday.

    “To err is human, but to really foul things up requires a computer.”
    —Anonymous. quoted in “Quote Unquote,” Feb. 22, 1982, BBC Radio 4.

    “The word “conservative” is used by the BBC as a portmanteau word of abuse for anyone whose views differ from the insufferable, smug, sanctimonious, naive, guilt-ridden, wet, pink orthodoxy of that sunset home of the third-rate minds of that third-rate decade, the nineteen-sixties.”
    —Norman Tebbit (b. 1931)

    “England has the most sordid literary scene I’ve ever seen. They all meet in the same pub. This guy’s writing a foreword for this person. They all have to give radio programs, they have to do all this just in order to scrape by. They’re all scratching each other’s backs.”
    —William Burroughs (b. 1914)
