Wedi 7 (Welsh for 'After 7') is a nightly Welsh language television magazine programme, formerly broadcast by S4C. Produced by Tinopolis, it was the half-hour sister programme to a full-hour Wedi 3 (Welsh for 'After 3').

Description

The Welsh-language television programme was first broadcast on 7 January 2002 with Angharad Mair presenting and Catrin Evans interviewing the politician Rod Richards and Gwyn Llywelyn [cy] questioning the Chief constable of North Wales Police at the time, Richard Brunstrom, in his first Welsh interview.[1] It was presented by the programme's editor, Angharad Mair,[2] and included Wales' news including leisure, entertainment and all the local events. She was joined by studio guests ranging from well-known celebrities to the up-and-coming stars of tomorrow and those with a story to tell. A team of correspondents based in Llanelli and Caernarfon reported live into the programme every night.[3]

Wedi7 was replaced by a revived version of Heno (Welsh for 'Tonight'), a similar Tinopolis-produced evening magazine programme, on 1 March 2012.[4]
