17:00-18:00 (Repeat) brand new one-off-documentary.Hedd Wyn:The Lost War Poet.The story of Hedd Wyn is one of Wales's enduring tragedies. A young man with little or no education succeeds in winning The Chair, one of the main literary prizes at the National Eisteddfod, but is killed in WWI before he could claim his prize. To mark the centenary of his death, National Poet of Wales Ifor ap Glyn reassesses Wyn's life and work.
His journey takes him from Trawsfynydd, where Hedd wyn was born and raised, to Liverpool, where he was trained to fight, and onwards to France and Belgium, where he was killed in action on 31 July 1918. In 2014, Hedd Wyn's home at Yr Ysgwrn was sold by his nephew Gerald Williams to the Snowdonia National Park Authority. 88-year-old Gerald wanted to preserve Wyn's legacy for future generations.
Ifor visits Hugh Hayley, one of Britain's leading furniture conservators, to gain an insight into the remarkable woodcarvings embedded into the ancient oak of Wyn's Black Chair. In France and Belgium, Ifor retraces the poet's final weeks, days and minutes. His successful poem, aptly titled Yr Arwr (The Hero), was finished and sent from the trenches, and his florid yet absorbing letters from the front seem to paint a picture of a young man who still felt the creative urge, amidst all that went on around him.
Featuring fascinating first-hand accounts, interviews recorded during the 1960s and 1970s with family and friends, and contemporary archive material from WWI, Ifor reassesses the poet's legacy. Why does this story continue to fascinate us so? What would Hedd Wyn have achieved had he lived? Maybe these are questions that can never be fully answered, but one thing is for certain, Hedd Wyn's legacy persists.

Their size seems ill-suited to surviving the most arid regions of Africa, but their inner workings allow them to defy the extreme heat of the desert and find food and water in seemingly barren landscapes, while their extraordinary memory enables them to repel predators.
Chris reveals how hairs on the skin help keep elephants cool, how sensors in their feet may be able to guide them towards rain and how a unique pouch in their mouths stores water. Recent research has even discovered that elephants can distinguish between the voices of human friend and foe.

18:00-19:00 (Repeat) brand new series and last in series and series finale.3/3.Tribes,Predators & Me.(Series 2).(Hyena People of Ethiopia).Ethiopia has more hyenas than anywhere else in the world, and Gordon Buchanan wants to find out why. He starts in Addis Ababa. Local hyena expert Girum Henok takes Gordon to see hyenas at night, Girum tells Gordon that hyenas are tolerated here because people believe they ward off the devil.
Gordon travels to the remote Omo Valley to meet a cattle-herding people called the Bodi. He meets Baradi, a spiritual leader, and Bibani, a mother. They are hyena experts, disliking them because their cattle are preyed upon by hyenas. Baradi takes Gordon to a hyena den. It seems the Bodi often destroy hyena dens, but mostly in retaliation for attacks on livestock.
In the Omo Valley, wildlife has largely been replaced by cattle so hyenas have little choice but to raid livestock. Bibani asks Gordon to sleep outside overnight to ward off hyenas. Gordon learns from elders that there was a time when hyenas and the Bodi lived in peace. He also learns that contrary to popular belief, hyenas hunt more than they scavenge. Gordon visits a neighbouring Bodi village that has had a cow injured by a hyena. Baradi shows Gordon the trap they set to kill marauding hyenas.
Baradi also shows Gordon another reason they rely on cattle. The Bodi are famous for their Ka'el ritual. The Bodi drink blood from the necks of their cows. This doesn't harm the cows, so it is more sustainable than slaughtering them for meat.
Gordon learns that the Bodi see hyenas as a cunning and respected enemy. He arrives in Harar, a medieval city with a reputation for having hundreds of hyenas. Gordon goes at night looking for hyenas in the graveyard.
Gordon meets hyena expert Yusef Saleh, who is rehabilitating an orphaned hyena and Yusef's son Abbas, who feeds wild hyenas to show tourists. Gordon meets the 'graveyard hyenas', and sees a young hyena cub. Gordon invites Baradi and his daughter Choma to meet Harar's hyenas. Unlike the people of Harar, these Bodi cattle-herders don't like hyenas, but they seem to soften towards them once they get close. If their cattle were protected, perhaps even the Bodi could forge a more peaceful relationship with hyenas.

R4 Two Wales
17:00-18:00 (Repeat) brand new one-off-documentary.Hedd Wyn:The Lost War Poet.The story of Hedd Wyn is one of Wales's enduring tragedies. A young man with little or no education succeeds in winning The Chair, one of the main literary prizes at the National Eisteddfod, but is killed in WWI before he could claim his prize. To mark the centenary of his death, National Poet of Wales Ifor ap Glyn reassesses Wyn's life and work.
His journey takes him from Trawsfynydd, where Hedd wyn was born and raised, to Liverpool, where he was trained to fight, and onwards to France and Belgium, where he was killed in action on 31 July 1918. In 2014, Hedd Wyn's home at Yr Ysgwrn was sold by his nephew Gerald Williams to the Snowdonia National Park Authority. 88-year-old Gerald wanted to preserve Wyn's legacy for future generations.
Ifor visits Hugh Hayley, one of Britain's leading furniture conservators, to gain an insight into the remarkable woodcarvings embedded into the ancient oak of Wyn's Black Chair. In France and Belgium, Ifor retraces the poet's final weeks, days and minutes. His successful poem, aptly titled Yr Arwr (The Hero), was finished and sent from the trenches, and his florid yet absorbing letters from the front seem to paint a picture of a young man who still felt the creative urge, amidst all that went on around him.
Featuring fascinating first-hand accounts, interviews recorded during the 1960s and 1970s with family and friends, and contemporary archive material from WWI, Ifor reassesses the poet's legacy. Why does this story continue to fascinate us so? What would Hedd Wyn have achieved had he lived? Maybe these are questions that can never be fully answered, but one thing is for certain, Hedd Wyn's legacy persists.

16:30-17:00 (Repeat) brand new series.6/12.The Wonder of Animals.(Elephants).Chris Packham explores the anatomy and physiology of the largest land animal on the planet - the elephant. Their size seems ill-suited to surviving the most arid regions of Africa, but their inner workings allow them to defy the extreme heat of the desert and find food and water in seemingly barren landscapes, while their extraordinary memory enables them to repel predators.
Chris reveals how hairs on the skin help keep elephants cool, how sensors in their feet may be able to guide them towards rain and how a unique pouch in their mouths stores water. Recent research has even discovered that elephants can distinguish between the voices of human friend and foe.

18:00-19:00 (Repeat) brand new series and last in series and series finale.3/3.Tribes,Predators & Me.(Series 2).(Hyena People of Ethiopia).Ethiopia has more hyenas than anywhere else in the world, and Gordon Buchanan wants to find out why. He starts in Addis Ababa. Local hyena expert Girum Henok takes Gordon to see hyenas at night, Girum tells Gordon that hyenas are tolerated here because people believe they ward off the devil.
Gordon travels to the remote Omo Valley to meet a cattle-herding people called the Bodi. He meets Baradi, a spiritual leader, and Bibani, a mother. They are hyena experts, disliking them because their cattle are preyed upon by hyenas. Baradi takes Gordon to a hyena den. It seems the Bodi often destroy hyena dens, but mostly in retaliation for attacks on livestock.
In the Omo Valley, wildlife has largely been replaced by cattle so hyenas have little choice but to raid livestock. Bibani asks Gordon to sleep outside overnight to ward off hyenas. Gordon learns from elders that there was a time when hyenas and the Bodi lived in peace. He also learns that contrary to popular belief, hyenas hunt more than they scavenge. Gordon visits a neighbouring Bodi village that has had a cow injured by a hyena. Baradi shows Gordon the trap they set to kill marauding hyenas.
Baradi also shows Gordon another reason they rely on cattle. The Bodi are famous for their Ka'el ritual. The Bodi drink blood from the necks of their cows. This doesn't harm the cows, so it is more sustainable than slaughtering them for meat.
Gordon learns that the Bodi see hyenas as a cunning and respected enemy. He arrives in Harar, a medieval city with a reputation for having hundreds of hyenas. Gordon goes at night looking for hyenas in the graveyard.
Gordon meets hyena expert Yusef Saleh, who is rehabilitating an orphaned hyena and Yusef's son Abbas, who feeds wild hyenas to show tourists. Gordon meets the 'graveyard hyenas', and sees a young hyena cub. Gordon invites Baradi and his daughter Choma to meet Harar's hyenas. Unlike the people of Harar, these Bodi cattle-herders don't like hyenas, but they seem to soften towards them once they get close. If their cattle were protected, perhaps even the Bodi could forge a more peaceful relationship with hyenas.
