The young Welsh actor Ioan Gruffudd (A&E's Horatio Hornblower, PBS's Forsyth Saga) grew up speaking both Welsh and English, since his parents are both teachers of the Welsh language. Ioan was in a Welsh-speaking daytime drama for many years. Now he's gaining fame both as an actor and spokesman for Welsh culture.

Speaking of Ioan Gruffudd, see this web page. Ioan apparently plays a part on a popular sitcom call Pobol y Cwm.
