Kevin Williams for Bar Hansh / © S4C
Rownd a Rownd star Kevin Williams has taken over as host of the S4C reality show Bar Hansh.
Set in the Greek party resort of Zante, the show features six Welsh youngsters running a Welsh bar on the island with the hopes of winning a final prize pot that could reach £10,000.
Each week the group must vote among themselves to decide who must be sacked based on their performances in a variety of tasks.
“The opportunity came out of the blue, to be honest,” said Williams, whose soap character Kelvin Walsh was killed off after 27 years last year. “I thought it was a prank call from one of my friends at first. I didn’t quite believe it until I got an official email afterwards, and that’s when I realised this definitely wasn’t a prank call!”
He added: “I’ve had the opportunity to do something different to acting. I’ve come out to Zante to present Bar Hansh, so I’ll be the bar’s boss out in Zante and I’m looking forward to it.
“The hardest part was being myself. I’m used to acting as Kelvin Walsh for so many years. I wasn’t Kelvin here, I was myself.”
The new series of Bar Hansh begins tonight at 10pm on S4C and will also be available via iPlayer.
