A Child's Christmas in Wales (1987)
2008 classically animated version
I would like to add that in 2008 my company Brave New World Productions animated A Child's Christmas in Wales using traditional hand-drawn designs.

The voice over was provided in English and Welsh by Matthew Rhys. The film contains two songs performed by Only Men Aloud.
The film was awarded a BAFTA in 2009 and nominated for a Kids-screen international award in 2010.
Commissioning Broadcaster S4C Distribution - Parthenon entertainment, now a apart of Sky. The film was made in Cardiff and the live action sequence was shot in Swansea.
