Former Royal Harpist Claire Jones talks about her life after recovering from ME, and making new music. And Bodedern, site of this year's Eisteddfod, is our Town of the Week.

She was once Royal Harpist, and then a debilitating illness nearly put paid to her musical career. Now Claire Jones is back. She shares her story with Wynne. There will be harps aplenty next week at the Royal National Eisteddfod held at Bodedern, Anglesey, which is our Town of the Week. Talking of the Eisteddfod, former rugby player Robin McBryde explains what it's like to be the official sword bearer at the big ceremonies. Is it a job for a delicate figure like Mr Evans?
