A Boy in a Suitcase, A Wolf in the Woods

Goronwy Moelwyn Hughes, a Cardigan-born London lawyer, creates two dramas whilst holidaying back home. The first uses Aberporth and Tresaith as locations for a drama featuring his son Ifan, an innocent, who upsets two crooks (Ifan's aunt Beryl Lewis and Kenneth Williams, a teacher at Ealing Grammar School); the second illustrates the saying that there is safety in numbers. In between, family/friends are seen hiking in hills and above Elan Valley's Craig Goch Dam.

Goronwy Moelwyn Hughes (1897-1955) was the eldest of six children and achieved first class honours in law at Cambridge. He became a barrister in 1922. He started his political career as a Liberal, standing unsuccessfully in two general elections (in 1929 and 1931). He switched to Labour in 1934 and was unsuccessful as candidate for Cardigan in the 1935 general election. Nothing daunted, he stood at a by-election for Carmarthen in 1941 and won, holding the seat until 1945. He married Louise [Lulu], only child of Frederick Arthur Greer, a judge, who was the son of a Manxman and his wife, the eldest of their fourteen children. Ronw and Lulu had 3 children, two sons, Arthur and Ifan, and a daughter, Robin.
