2000

Join BBC Wales’s Lucy Owen for a new series celebrating Welsh news and entertainment at the turn of the 21st century. From the excitement of our millennium celebrations to Catherine Zeta Jones’s star-studded wedding, Lucy revisits the stories and people who shaped the headlines.

Remembering Wales’s first internet village, the ill-fated Bluestones Millennium Project, and the debut of Bryn Terfel’s Faenol festival - the biggest event in north Wales. It was the year John Malkovich launched a budget hotel in Cardiff and Gwent was in the grip of a big cat warning. There was a snooker legend from Cwm, Michelin star triumphs, a fashion show made from rubbish, and we were reminded that we’re never too old to dance or dream.
