Rhys Williams and Donna Reed
Rhys Williams and Donna Reed

Rhys Williams (December 31, 1897 – May 28, 1969).

Rhys Williams was a Welsh character actor in films and television whose career spanned several decades. He made his film debut in How Green Was My Valley (1941), which is set in rural Wales. Williams, the only genuine Welshman in the cast, was originally hired solely to coach the actors in their Welsh accents; ultimately, director John Ford gave him a role in the film.


Watch him on The Donna Reed Show in The Busy Body (Season 1, Episode 13), playing the part of Donna’s uncle who suddenly drops by for an unexpected visit.

I have been looking for something that does not require a powerful machine, and PicoClaw's site presents a compelling case for its low overhead. The fact that it integrates with several chat platforms without a heavy runtime makes it an interesting option for always-on devices.

I keep a tab open with Crazyig for when I need a break during work. They have a decent collection of browser games that run smoothly without any lag. The racing and shooting categories are where I usually end up spending most of my time.

Interesting how Rhys Williams went from coaching the Welsh accents to actually being cast by John Ford — and what a fun fit for an episode about an uncle who drops by unannounced. I’ll have to watch that one!

The article gives a straightforward explanation that readers can easily follow. I had a look at Slope Game and found the concept interesting. Its simple controls make starting easy, while increasing speed creates a bigger challenge over time.
