I'm sure we all could name a few flicks that are set in different regions of the British Isles...Scotland, England, Ireland, but does anyone out there know of any good flicks that are set in Wales?

I just recently saw 'An Englishman Who Went Up a Mountian...' and realised it was set in Wales. I then thought, wow, I can't name anything else set in this part of the world.

Any help or suggestion on how to get an answer?

How about Island of Mann? That's what I would like to see...

This might help out:

But bear in mind some of these might only have a tentative connection to Wales.

The excellent "How Green Was My Valley" by John Ford (on the imdb.com list).

Human Traffic. A good movie about partying / clubbing.

The Prisoner (TV)

Twin Town, The Dark (not sure if it's out on DVD yet but it was in the pix recently)

If you're just looking for scenery, I believe Dragonslayer was filmed in Wales?

Pinocchio

Twin Town is the only one I've seen. A fairly awful little movie with a few partially redeeming qualitiesd. Also, the speak Welsh in it.

In television:

The revival of Doctor Who is filmed in Wales, and stories frequently occur there. You'd be surprised at how many aliens want to invade Cardiff!

Also, the Doctor Who spin-off Torchwood premieres next month, and that takes place entirely within Cardiff.

The Portmeirion locations were filmed in Wales, but the actual fictional location of the Village was left vague, or unknown, or ambiguous. In other words, indistinct. And mysterious.

Dammit, I came in here to make that joke!

If you're looking into TV set in Wales there's loooooads of it. There's a Welsh language channel called S4C with a soap opera that's popular called Pobl Y Cwm.

The Christmas Stallion (AKA The Winter Stallion) starring Daniel J. Travanti.
