In the 1960's writer and broadcaster Gwyn Thomas made a series of programmes for TWW in which he visited different parts of Wales. In this programme, Gwyn visits the two Abbeys of Llanthony. Today, his unique, warm and darkly humorous observations give us a fascinating insight into what life was like for people living in these Welsh communities over 40 years ago.
