2 IOLO S WELSH SEA Sunday, March 2, BBC One Wales, 5.35pm In the third episode of Iolo s Welsh Sea, Iolo Williams travels to Ceredigion in west Wales, which has the highest population of dolphins in Europe. He hears how the local council s marine code of practice is trying to balance the tourism industry with protecting the wildlife that s attracting visitors to the area. With the recent flooding hitting the headlines, Iolo discovers that it s not a new phenomenon. At Cwm yr Eglwys on the north Pembrokeshire coast, a church has stood in one form or another since Norman times. But in 1833, the sea defence wall was breached and two fields and the cemetery disappeared. Iolo dives to see what remains hidden beneath the waves. And Iolo meets a team from Bangor, Aberystwyth and Swansea universities, who are part of a new energy project to harness the sea s power between Ramsay Island and the Pembrokeshire coast - the location of the one of the biggest tidal flows in the UK.

3 THE COUNTRY MIDWIVES Thursday, March 6, BBC One Wales, 8.00pm #countrymidwives In a brand new series, The Country Midwives follows the working lives and challenges of the community midwives of Carmarthenshire. In this part of the world, their journey is never easy. Midwives Anwen and Nan tackle a maze of country roads and farm tracks in the snow to reach their mothers-to-be. Dad-to-be, Daz from Newcastle Emlyn, gets ready for a musical home birth by writing a song for his expectant wife and baby. The big day arrives for first-time parents Bethan and Dylan who are expecting twins as midwife Anwen juggles her own childcare when working days become working nights. As recent mum-again Lisa recovers from a traumatic delivery, she anxiously waits to find out when premature baby boy, Jaden, will be able to come home from hospital. With great ups and difficult downs, the midwives provide safe hands for parents-to-be in rural Carmarthenshire, as the series follows the incredible journeys of the families and sees the extraordinary realities of childbirth.

4 POLICE 24/7 Thursday, March 6, BBC One Wales, 8.30pm #Police247 The new series of Police 24/7 follows a week in the life of South Wales Police, the largest force in Wales. Seven days of action with the cops on the street and the criminals they try to beat. In the opening episode, the eyes of the world are on Cardiff for one of the biggest derby games in the Football Premier League - Cardiff City v Swansea City. Football intelligence officer PC Simon Chivers and South Wales Police will be taking on the enormous operation of policing the thousands of fans travelling from Swansea to the capital. With a clash of rivals imminent, Simon and his team will need to be at the top of their game. Meanwhile crime doesn t stop just because there is a big event in the capital. Response officers deal with a car crash with serious consequences for one drink driver, and the Helicops are on the hunt for a suspected criminal, but will they find them in the pitch black of night?
