Hanes
Teliesyn was an independent, co-operative film and television company based in Cardiff. Founded and established by former BBC employees Colin Thomas and Paul Turner in 1981, it began producing programmes in 1982 and produced many programmes for the BBC, S4C, Channel 4, ITV and Thames Television between 1982 and 2002. The company was a pioneer in bilingual productions, often producing the same programme in both Welsh and English, with the aim at the beginning to get more Welsh programmes on screen. It made both dramas and documentaries and employed a number of well-known producers, directors, actors and presenters, including Colin Thomas, Michael Winterbottom, Professor Gwyn Alf Williams, Tim Roth and Miranda Richardson. The company was very successful and at one point was in the top 12% of companies in the independent sector in the UK. It also won a number of prestigious Sony, BFI and BAFTA Cymru awards. The company closed in 2002.
