England's Greatest Victories Against the Southern Hemisphere...
England on Top Down Under 1973-2000 In this action-packed compilation, John Inverdale presents some of England's greatest victories against Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. We start in 1973 when John Pullin led England to a 16-10 win against the mighty All Blacks before taking in three matches in the 80's including the 1988 success over Australia in Will Carling's first game as captain. The 1995 World Cup saw Rob Andrew's last-gasp drop-goal end Australia's chances, while the 1998 victory against South Africa put paid to Springbok hopes of securing a world record 18th straight win.
England on Top Down Under 2000-2005 England started the New Millennium with a bang as Dan Luger's last-gasp try clinched a win against Australia that had Twickenham buzzing. Two years later England came from 19-31 down to seal a dramatic one point victory over the Wallabies before scoring seven tries in the 53-3 decimation of South Africa. Jonny Wilkinson's drop-goal to win the 2003 World Cup in Sydney is perhaps the standout moment in English rugby history and this programme offers the chance to relive that incredible night in Sydney before ending with the 2005 Cook Cup victory over the Wallabies at Twickenham.
