Can you imagine if Welsh independence activist Colin Hughes found out he was being portrayed by some English actor? Mans would be SEETHING lmao
lol very true. On the other hand, I'm half Welsh and been very strongly brought up in Welsh culture by my mum, and we have both been very impressed with Billy Harris' very accurate Welsh accent. (In s2 and s3, at least - I maintain in s1 he went slightly Irish from time to time.) That, plus the fact that Colin's Welshness is never used as a joking point, means I reckon Colin would also consider the portrayal a flattering one.

Dom a Lloyd : Cymru Heddiw
youtube
Hiiii!! Please share this. This is a cool video regarding Black Welsh speakers and some of the progress and some of the obstacles that have been happening in the country of Wales in regarding to Black Welsh people. Everyone can be a part of revitalizing a language and in regards to revitalizing indigenous languages (like Welsh) anti-Blackness should have no place in the process. This is something I think no one really talks about and I LOVE this YouTube channel it needs more subscribers for sure!!

different anon! I'm curious, do you think Colin saying "boyo" so often is something that makes sense for his character? It feels like weird vernacular for a twentysomething from south Wales. If anything I'd expect him to say lush and cwtch more than boyo /not welsh but have lived in Cardiff
My one issue with Colin's portrayal as a Welshman! I love the word, but 'boyo' is a term used more in my grandparents' era (so we can headcanon he had a strong relationship with a grandparent and picked up the lingo), but 'mun' seems like a more appropriate word for someone Colin's age.
And quite frankly, the fact that Colin hasn't ever offered anyone a cwtch is the worst sort of anti-Welsh propaganda. Fact.

COLIN. HUGHES. IS CANONICALLY GAY.
I don’t really know how to properly articulate this—I just feel so ridiculously happy and validated. This is what I mean by wanting to see the queer experience portrayed realistically in mainstream media: we see Colin struggling with being closeted in the ultra-heteronormative world of professional football, as well as dealing with microaggressions, even coming from his friends/trusted colleagues—but we also see him get to be genuinely happy and at ease with his boyfriend, and just generally really content when he’s able to be himself without putting up pretenses. His experience as a queer person is not all about suffering all the time, and we need more representation of queer joy, like this, in television.
Also, perhaps equally as important: Colin isn’t a main character! He’s simply one member of an ensemble cast all going through their own complicated personal issues. And being gay isn’t the center of his character, either. Colin is multifaceted: he has self-esteem issues unrelated to his sexuality (compounded by being demoted from the starting lineup and by Nate’s bullying), he has a close friendship with Isaac, he likes driving sports cars even though he admits they’re “too much car for [him]”, he’s clumsy and constantly getting injured accidentally (think water pressure + nearly dying of asphyxiation twice in one workout session), he’s a proud Welshman, etc., etc.—Colin is a character who feels real and fleshed out and more than just a piece of token representation.
Anyway… oof, I swear I didn’t go into this post intending to write an entire TED Talk about a Ted Lasso side character (haha… “Ted Talk”… get it?); but since I did, thanks to you all for reading.
