Programmes
TWW did not produce many programmes for the ITV network, but its news and local programming was well regarded (it won many plaudits for its sensitive coverage of the Aberfan Disaster).
Its Welsh magazine programme was called Amser Te (Tea Time). Amongst other items, it featured a regular cookery item hosted by Myfanwy Howell and the popular Welsh music show Gwlad y Gan.
TWW also launched the careers of many famous faces, who appeared on their early broadcasts. These include John Humphrys and Claire Rayner. TWW was the first to showcase Adge Cutler - his appearances on the TWW programme 'The Cider Apple' led to Adge's fame spreading and the formation of The Wurzels. Bruce Lewis was one of TWW's main news presenters; he went on to write various books about his experience during the second world war, "Aircrew, a Few of the First", plus other titles and how to be a TV presenter.
