Keeping Faith

A little preamble.

First shown on The BBC Welsh channel last year but in Welsh but with no sub titles not like they did with Hinterland

I was brought up in Rhyl but was English and they tried to teach me their Language do remember some words and its a poetic language and lovely to listern to, but don't remember most of it.

Tried watching it Welsh but gave up no sub titles

Just started on BBC. with the English version if you watch there lip movements the words are in English in the Welsh version the Words are in Welsh.

Ever scene was shot twice once in Welsh and once in English.

It looks interesting but the first English Ep is a bit boring.

Re: Keeping Faith

I enjoyed the first episode of Keeping Faith. It was called "Un Bore Mercher"(One Wednesday Morning)when it was shown on S4C. I didn't watch then even though I speak Welsh,can't remember why I didn't watch it then.Eve Myles is a good actress.
Lovely views over the Laugharne estuary.

Wow, you speak Welsh? I love languages and their relationship to each other. Having heard the beautiful Gaelic tongues, they sound like languages not related to anything European. But they are really cool. Especially when women speak it.

Did wonder were it was filmed looks a bit like Norfolk.

Second EP was very slow again.

Her eldest daughter is a rather good actor.

Hope in the next EPs Faith stops walking around in High Heels at 9am

Have been watching on I player and as it was so bad had to turn off and watch the next ten minutes next day.

Nothing wrong with the acting, its was just the scripts very badly written.

Think what I need to do is try to watch every ep from start to finish.

Still love Hinterland.

Just watched the last EP think they are hoping for a follow up series.

Don't think there will be one as the whole series was poor

To drawn out and to padded plus bad writing but very good acting.

Try to watch Hinterland for good writing and great scenery and good story lines.

Re: Keeping Faith

I also found the last episode confusing.
Have watched Hinterland(Y Gwyll) in both Welsh and English and it is well worth watching.Love Richard Harrington.
