So, unlike poor nerdy Colin, I got to visit the Library! Hurrah!

I'm sure we all remember that Colin and Bradley tried to visit The Arthurian Collection in Mold as part of The Real Merlin and Arthur show for BBC Wales, but didn't arrive until after it closed.

So… in October 2009, Bradley and Colin hopped into a Ford Focus, and spent three days driving around Wales visiting Arthurian locations. This resulted in a program called The Real Merlin and Arthur, first broadcast on 28 November 2009.

Obviously there are also plenty of Arthurian locations to visit in England and elsewhere - but I don't see the paraochial focus as a bad thing, because I suspect a lot of people who are less geeky than us tend to think of the Arthurian legends as very English, and forget or aren't aware of the strong Welsh connections especially in the origins of the stories.
