Superb concert from Heaven 17 at Cardiff Tramshed, celebrating the 45th anniversary of ‘Penthouse and Pavement’. All the hits, alongside some great covers… what an unexpected highlight to hear electro versions of ‘Let’s Dance’ and ‘Wichita Lineman’! 👏🏼👏🏼 #heaven17 @martynware

📺 Had a good laugh filming this with Derek. A proper nostalgia trip watching classic 70s and 80s telly for BBC Wales’ Back In The Day. There’s a real joy in rewatching memorable TV (something #TOTP fans know all about!). Back on Fridays at 7.30pm on BBC One Wales. #BackInTheDay

Sad to hear of the passing of a true star of the silver screen. “She looks like Eva Marie Saint in On The Waterfront”… wonder how many other music fans saw the film, after Lloyd Cole’s lyrics to ‘Rattlesnakes’ made it sound like a must-watch movie? #EvaMarieSaint

🏃🏾‍♂️ Before… and after! Thanks for the lovely messages, folks. Big fan of Cardiff half-marathon. Still feels like a challenge, twenty years on! So much support along the 13.1 miles, brilliant banners and even the weather played ball! That post-race fizz never tasted so good… 🥂

🏃🏾‍♂️ Weather-watching for Cardiff Half on Sunday? Me too! 📺 It’s not looking bad at all, largely dry, and on the warm side for early October. Here’s the latest… #CardiffHalf #UKRunChat #CardiffHalfMarathon

From shwmae to goodbye… it’s just been a joy to work with the ray of sunshine that is Derek Brockway. We all know him as a BBC Wales’ Weather legend… it won’t surprise you to know he’s also been a great friend, colleague and mentor. I will miss him immensely. @DerekTheWeather

The news this week from both Derek and Roy Noble feels like the end of an era. Two titans announcing they’re stepping back from regular broadcasting. They’ve earned the kind of loyalty and trust from viewers and listeners, that is built over decades in TV and radio.

Enjoy your well-earned break, Derek… time for more travel, tennis, walking and RnR. But I’m sure we’ll see and hear you back on air again. The coffee’s always on, my incorrigible friend! ☕️

Shwmae everyone. I have some BIG news to share! After nearly 30 years of presenting the weather on @BBCWales I will be leaving at the end of the year. What a great run I've had. It's been a privilege and a pleasure x

📺 Haven’t presented the news on TV for many years… but had an unexpected call off the subs bench today! Wouldn’t have worn a stripey jumper to read the breakfast bulletins, if I’d forecast that!

Those who know my musical tastes (eg @Sue_Charles ) and my football commentary journey - especially watching @Cymru - won’t be too surprised. Tough job to narrow down this list. Please enjoy. More importantly - hope @NewportCounty win!
