Despite the growing body of work on the media in Wales, very little exists on the history of commercial television in Wales. This book seeks to address this imbalance by tracing the growth and development of ITV in Wales and assessing its contribution to the life of the nation. ITV has been a powerful force in British broadcasting since its inception in 1955. When commercial television came to Wales for the first time in 1958, it immediately got caught up in with matters of national identity, language and geography. Compared with the BBC, it is a relative newcomer; its growth was slower than that of the BBC and it took until 1962 to complete the network across the UK. Once it had arrived, however, its impact was considerable. The book will provide an historical narrative and critical analysis of independent television (ITV) in Wales from 1958 up until the present day.

An Invitation into the Compassionate Heart of God Fearfully and Wonderfully Made powerfully reveals God’s unconditional, compassionate, and fearless love for His creation. At times such lavish and freely available love may not feel comfortable. In light of our mistakes and regrets, we often don’t feel worthy or deserving of such kindness and compassion. But as the pages of this “love letter” from God are turned, the inspiration to surrender ourselves over to this divine love will grow. Thankfully, God’s relentless love doesn’t ignore our failings. It courageously acknowledges them in light of his extravagant grace and mercy. It actually dissolves our lack of love for ourselves and renews our sense of identity as God’s beloved. This is God’s perfect love for us. Refreshingly, Fearfully and Wonderfully Made invites readers to settle more fully into this rhythm with God. The devotions, artwork, and contemplative exercises engage readers and offers generous space to remember and more fully embrace with radical acceptance God’s perfect love.
