Y GOLAU
NEW SUNDAY, 9PM, S4C (WEEKLY, BBC IPLAYER) DRAMA

Filmed in both English and Welsh with English subtitles (the English-language version, will air on C4 and All 4 later this year), the six-part series sees Joanna as Sharon Roberts, whose teenage daughter, Ela, was murdered in mysterious circumstances by local gardener Joe Pritchard ( star Iwan Rheon).
Now, 18 years on, Joe is about to be released on parole. But with nobody and Joe claiming he has no memory of the crime, both Sharon and Ela’s childhood friend Cat ( ’s Alexandra Roach) are determined to get to the truth. But at what cost?
Here, in an exclusive interview, Joanna, 60, who recently won Best Actress at the BAFTA Film Awards for her role in the movie tells TV Times more…
How would you describe Sharon and the journey she goes on throughout the series?
