Re: Great things that came from Wales...
Michael Sheen went to the same school as me, unfortunately a few years after me. Anthony Hopkins was from a different part of the same town, so went to a different school, quite a few years before me and Richard Burton came from a village just outside town.
Mary Hopkin, oh yes, those were the days.
Christian Bale was born welsh but believe brought up in London.

There is of course William Frost from Tenby who designed and flew a powered flying machine a whole 8 years before the Wright brothers.
