Synopsis

The essential guide to Welsh life with Rhodri and Lucy Owen.

The Thomson Dream is a cruise liner promoted as the pride of the fleet, but for the Challenger family and other holidaymakers their holiday on the floating hotel was a disaster, with the smell of sewage permeating cabins, the toilets overflowing and pipes dripping with sewage. Rachel Treadaway-Williams investigates a cruise that went badly wrong.

How much thought have you given to your funeral? It's something that most people are reluctant to plan or even think about. X-Ray sent Chris Corcoran on a journey to discover what kind of funeral he might like.

In the Story of Survival, motorcyclist Malcolm Roberts recounts the day an accident almost led to his death. Lucy meets Paul Cheshire, a motorbike instructor with North Wales Police, who has top tips on avoiding motorbike accidents.

In Heol-y-Cyw it's time to check on the progress of the families trying to save energy and cut back on their shopping bills.
