Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth has called for an independent investigation into the governance at S4C.

The Welsh language channel has been in a state of crisis for months. A report into bullying at the channel highlighted serious unhappiness among some staff, the chair Rhodri Williams was found to have acted in a "bullying and aggressive" way to a woman he later sacked and the former CEO Sian Doyle took an overdose.

In an interview with WalesOnline Mr ap Iorwerth, who has been leader for six months after replacing Adam Price, said that "something has gone wrong at the channel". He said: "The first thing I'd say is that my feelings go out to anybody who has been personally affected in any way and who feels that they have suffered in any way as a result of what has clearly been been happening at S4C in recent months.
