Mostly stereotype as your pictures show because Tom Jones is majority English, he only has 1 Welsh grandparent and all the rest were English. Ryan Giggs' paternal grandfather is from Sierra Leone so not a good example due to that. Needless to say the Welsh are not darker than other British Isles populations. I don't know why people continue to perpretrate these anthroboard myths. People if they wish can pick out some darker people of any group but how statistically significant is it compared to others? The English people actually have the most brown eyes more than any of the Insular Celts but the Insular Celts are not the most closely related populations to each other which is another misconception. Irish and Scots are closest to each other, then to English and then to Welsh. So English are closer to Welsh than the Irish are and the English are closer to Irish than the Welsh are.
A lot of people don't know these sort of genetic quirks. The Welsh have the smallest population of 3.1 M (not counting Northern Irish but they are a province).

Edited earlier post. These are people from Abergele, Wales. This town has one of the highest rates of E-V13 in the UK.
"The reason for drastically higher levels of E1b1b in Abergele is most likely due to the heavy Roman Army presence in Abergele as most of the Roman Soldiers that came to Britain did not come from Italy, but from other parts of the Roman Empire. Other notable levels of genetic marker E-V13 have been found in a few other towns in Britain that were known to have had a heavy Roman presence nearly 2000 years ago."

The welsh do have more dark types than English people, This is obvious when you are in an environment where both are present, like I was at university, incidence of black hair is much more common among them. They apparently have darker eyes too according to most studies(lundman, toekneewhin), though lighter than Cornwall/Devon. ScotlandDNA never released their data (and Moffat is shady) but did show Wales was comparable to most of England, or perhaps slightly lighter.
