Slightly off topic but relating to the Dr Who Experience, apparently Peter Capaldi was known to sometimes hang around there during breaks in filming to meet fans etc.

As they used to have kids parties there, he also turned up at the parties - amazing for the kids.

He seems a really nice man with a good sense of humour. That must have been the icing on the (birthday) cake for the kids at the party.

Do you watch Dr Who and try to guess the film locations every episode too? 😁

They were filming around our area once which is quite a rural area where nothing happens. David Tennant was in a pub chatting to locals, everyone in the area was saying how they had met him and was virtually his best mate 😁. I, sadly, did not meet him 😀

Thanks so much - there sound like lots of things they’d enjoy. Techniquest in particular sounds very them and DH would really enjoy St Fagan’s. They’d also love the boat rides. I wish we were staying longer.

Amazing place. My lads love the indoor surfing, but they also wave canoeing and rafting. Have a google. It’s just round the bay from Cardiff Bay, we always walk there from the Red Dragon Centre.
There is also an Olympic sized swimming pool across the road from there.
We love Cardiff.

We went the Royal Mint last year. My kids loved it. Not sure where exactly it is but think about 25 mins outside Cardiff. We were visiting family.
