Thanks for sharing this film. Several have made comments about the "raucous" and "unnecessary" music. Remember though, this was made in 1960s when this was pretty much the sort of music you'd expect on cinema news reels from the '50s/'60s, long before TikTok or KZbin videos. Remember it was also a film made as a school project, not a professionally made film. Remember Tryweryn. Cofiwch Drryweryn.

Do you want independence from the British people or the UK establishment? Rather than true reform, the establishment would rather see a break up of the British nations. The English have also been ruled, since 1066, and it’s time for the English to wake up and realise they’ve been lied to into accepting that the establishment as it stands is the only correct way things can be. A non London centric commonwealth of independent states, without heredity and privilege. Time for the English to wake up, save themselves and also the British Isles as a functional entity.

Very irritating film, Liverpool gets its water for nothing and nothing is given back to the local area. Fishing is almost nonexistent today and certainly no sailing takes place on this lake. It also has a high level of radioactivity in its waters, hope Liverpool enjoys this!

Lovely film - a nationally important document of what went on. Why did film makers think deafening, utterly irrelevant muzak was required to fill the gaps in narration? Came close to ruining it.

The music style was how films were made at the time. Remember, this was made in the style of theatrical news reels and also was made as a school project, not a proffessional film. We now feel it's a bit jarring and raucous but that's how many proffessionally made news reels from tje '50s sounded then. If this hadn't been made, many images of Tryweryn would never be seen again. Cofiwch Dryweryn.

@@hywelw absolutely LOVE the film - it's a national treasure. It's just so hard sometimes to pick out the narration from the jarring background noise - that's all. The film is truly wonderful but I have to watch it with the sound almost off as my ears don't always work as they should. That slightly loses the delightful "Mr. Cholmondley-Warner" vibe of the whole thing. Amazing work by a school film society, though. Quite remarkable. I wonder if there are comparable films on the many other reservoirs that also flooded villages in various locations across GB? Hopefully KZbin will come up trumps on that score. Something transfixing about seeing villages before they were drowned, especially when a dry summer reveals a little of the past to us again...

There is something wrong by saying that this was done by Friars School. At this time it was a boys school, no girls. This girls voice must have come from the Girls Grammar School nearby.

Who would deny the flooding of the valley enhanced the beauty of the spot? Only arrogant imperialists could ever think in such ways.

Personally, I think the area was much more beautiful when the Capel Celyn village was still standing and thriving.

A whitewashing of what was a tragic event for Wales. I sadly was a pupil in Friars at this time. How on earth could they agree to say that this would beautify the place and this was just subsistence farming. The destruction of a Welsh community having been there for centuries.

Tbh , I'd rather see that Reservoir than thousands of shoddily built New Build house's , because that is what would probably be on there today .
