    Interesting video and it must have taken a lot of effort to get the information/locations now, thanks for uploading. It is shame to see the old pubs and houses gone, a little updating for modern convenience was all that would have been needed and be sympathetic.

    We lived in Swansea, but Port Talbot was like our little brother but with the big toy . . Such a wonderful history . .

    Work there as a subcontractor for the 1984 revamp of the main hot strip mill, and as a trainee engineer in 1975. Nice place, even better when Wales won the rugby.

    always find it astonshing that 3 actors ,each of which could be argued where the best in the world at there time, came from port Tolbert and the surrounding areas .
    Rob Brydon is actually a very good actor to and better than some give him credit ,but up not to the other threes level ,yet .
