Patrick Hannan: Until Then, Goodbye

Logo for Patrick Hannan: Until Then, Goodbye

The story of Patrick Hannan, one of Wales's most distinguished broadcasters and journalists. For more than 40 years he explained Wales and the world to us like no one else. In print, radio and television Patrick was erudite and witty, sharp and sardonic during a period of rapid economic and social change in Wales. He had a keen sense of history combined with a fascination of the unfolding politics of Wales and the wider UK. 'Until then, goodbye' was Patrick's radio farewell catchphrase - a catchphrase which always had the audience waiting with great expectation for the next instalment from the man dubbed 'the doyen of Welsh journalists'.
