[quote=BBC][b]A promotional film starring Hollywood actor Ioan Gruffudd has been criticised for using a location in England to avoid the rain in Wales.[/b]

The actor is seen delivering an inspirational speech and striding across mountains offering a welcome to new University of South Wales students.

[b]But it was filmed in Somerset as rain was forecast for the Brecon Beacons.[/b]

The University of South Wales said the 90-second student recruitment film had a "Welsh flavour".

Plaid Cymru AM Lindsay Whittle criticised the decision to make the film in England.

He said: "It seems odd the university would choose a well-known Welsh actor to front their ad campaign but made it in England.[/quote]
