Television Work
In his private life, Terwyn has worked for independent TV production company Telesgop since 2001 where he started as a researcher on the farming magazine programme Ffermio. Between 2005 - 2008, he worked as an interactive producer on the programme - responsible for the programme's website and interactive TV application.
Between August 2008 and May 2009, Terwyn presented and produced the Bwletin Ffermio programme every Tuesday and Friday at 1.30pm on S4C Digidol. Then he went on to produce a new series for S4C called Bro (area), presented by Shân Cothi and Iolo Williams, visiting different areas of Wales every week, getting to know the area through its history, its people and its landscape.
Terwyn has also coped with a stammer from a very young age, which caused emotional problems for him during his childhood and teenage years. But somehow through his radio work, he has now learned to control the stammer, and although has not totally overcome it, has managed to make it disappear while he broadcasts.
In February 2011, Terwyn joined the Ffermio presenting team on S4C, while regular presenter Daloni Metcalfe took maternity leave.

Famous quotes containing the words television and/or work:
“The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasn’t there something reassuring about it!—that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one another’s eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atoms—nothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss?”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
“A man should have a farm or a mechanical craft for his culture. We must have a basis for our higher accomplishments, our delicate entertainments of poetry and philosophy, in the work of our hands.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
