I’ve seen it a few times only, but is Dafydd the flamboyantly closeted gay Welshman?

Yes, Dafydd is gay, however, he’s not closeted at all. He is so out, he refuses to believe that anyone else is gay, regardless of the evidence to the contrary. After all, he is “The only gay in the village”.

Yeah, I knew there was some twist to it, but I couldn’t remember the details. Funny, I think I went to college with him …
