    5 x 50 minute episodes

    BBC Wales produced the acclaimed Hawkmoor, an original story by Lynn Hughes based on accounts of 16th-century Welsh folk hero Twm Siôn Cati.

    The series depicted Twm (John Ogwen) as a Welsh Robin Hood character, leading a charmed and many-sided life – highwayman, poet, outlaw, nobleman and general scallywag – and escaping death many times while protecting the Welsh people during the reign of Queen Mary I of England.

    Cardiganshire in 1558 was the most flawless corner of Bloody Mary’s kingdom and Twm’s confrontations with his enemies – the English-born Sheriff John Stedman (Jack May) and the cruel (Catholic) Vicar Davyd (Philip Madoc) – were as notorious as his wooing of lovely Lady Johane Williams (Jane Asher), wife of another enemy.

    Also co-starring were Godfrey James as Twm’s right-hand man Shanco, Tom Owen as the sheriff’s son John, Meredith Edwards as Sir Tom Williams and Rachel Thomas as Agnes.
