And the Welsh connection? The actor ( Paul Amos ) who plays the none too charming 'Vex' is from Pencoed near Bridgend. Here is what wiki has to say about him:-
Paul Amos as Vex: A Mesmer. He can control people's actions against their will. Vex is of the dark Fae and "friends" with the Morrgan. He played a pivotal role against the Garuda where he used his powers to delay the Garuda in using Trick's blood to change the Blood Laws. He has a childish personality and uses his powers to amuse himself in such ways.
If you haven't caught up with the show yet you can find 35 episodes on Netflix but be aware that for all its frivolity it is very much an adult themed series. If you thrilled to 'True Blood' you will love 'Lost Girl' and it is after all:- "the highest-rated Canadian scripted series premiere of all time on Showcase".

If like me you occasionally resort to the cathode ray tube for purposes of general anaesthetic this series will provide you with 35 hours of delicious nonsense if you become hooked. AND you can applaud our boy from Bridgend Paul Amos as he portrays Vex, a vicious and frivolous dark fae favourite who looks and sounds like a cross between Johnny Rotten and Adam Ant
