The drama will premiere this fall as <em>Un Bore Mercher<\/em> on S4C, followed by an English-language version called <em>Keeping Faith<\/em> on BBC One Wales early next year.<\/p>\n<p>Co-written by Matthew Hall (<em>Kavanagh QC<\/em>) and Anwen Huws (<em>Gwaith Cartref<\/em>, <em>Pobol y Cwm<\/em>), the series will be filmed on location in the Vale of Glamorgan, Carmarthenshire and around Laugharne, with studio scenes recorded in Bridgend.<\/p>\n<p>Gwawr Martha Lloyd, S4C&#8217;s drama content commissioner, said: &#8220;We&#8217;re very excited about this new and original series that will be premiering on S4C this autumn. With a stellar cast and a completely compelling story, plot and setting, we&#8217;re hoping the audience will grow to love the world and the characters of <em>Un Bore Mercher<\/em> as much as we in S4C have as we worked to develop the series. The series intends to take the viewer on a thrilling, emotional and warm journey which will pull at the heartstrings but will also make them smile along the way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Nick Andrews, the head of commissioning at BBC Wales, said: &#8220;This is fantastic news, to have a genuine home-grown drama, produced by world-class talent at the top of their game.
