The One on Mab Hudel

A coming out story at a Cornish rugby club takes centre-stage in Edward Rowe's new film.

If you live in Cornwall, you will know who Edward Rowe is.

And if you don’t, prepare to be introduced to an absolute gem!

The Cornish actor and comedian is a legend in the county – and he's just written, filmed and directed his first-ever short film, all in the Cornish language, looking at a coming out story at a Cornish rugby club.

It’s called ‘Mab Hudel’ – and tells the story of a player called Enys Penrose who captains his team to a cup final, while simultaneously struggling with his own sexuality.

It’s something that’s right up our street, which is why we had Ed in to chat on our Ö÷²¥´óÐã Radio Cornwall show.

And we thought you might like to hear it on our podcast as well, which is why we’re bringing it to you here.

Ed is a great talker – a really engaging, entertaining guy who we love and think you’ll love as well – and that the film will be right up your street as well.

So, enjoy this special bonus episode with Ed, and make sure you try and check out the film as well.
