Other Aspects of Welsh Life Rugby is the sport most avidly followed, particularly in South Wales. Dylan Thomas is Wales' best-known writer, though for notoriety as much as for his literary achievements. The Welsh-language programme Pobol Y Cwm is the UK's longest running BBC television soap. There are also several traditional types of food. Laverbread is a traditional delicacy made from seaweed. Welsh cakes are sweet scone-like snacks made from flour, butter, eggs, sugar and currants. And bara brith is a traditional Welsh fruitcake.
