Rhondda attitudes

Ian Watkins revisits the Rhondda valley to see if attitudes to homosexuality have altered in the last ten years. He remembers the abuse that he had growing up there. Includes archive footage from 1967. Contemporary footage shows an interview with Leo Abse, a same-sex civil partnership ceremony, Cardiff's Mardi Gras Festival and an interview with rugby referee Nigel Owens, but some contemporary voices still show signs of homophobia.
