2007

Lucy Owen explores BBC Wales’s news and entertainment archives of 2007. She takes us through the events, headlines and memorable moments of the year with archive gems including the rise of influencers on YouTube, the grit-eating sheep of Flintshire, the battle for village of the year and how Strictly took us back to the dance floor.

In sport, Tanni Grey-Thompson retires, the Phoenix Cheerleaders come back, and a new digital pet watch monitors children’s exercise. It’s the year we first meet Nessa, find a Led Zeppelin hideaway, and the first air service starts between north and south Wales.
