The History of Rugby DVD presented by Rob Andrew                       

Rugby had one of the most romantic births of any sport. Not content with
starting life as a full blown , planned event , it took a young man called
William Webb Ellis to decide in 1823 that instead of kicking the ball he
would pick it up and run with it.

From that day at Rugby School a new sport took its place in our heritage.
A sport that would be enjoyed by more than 100 nations across the globe.

Since 1823 rugby union has enjoyed revolution after revolution , from its
break from rugby league to its move to professionalism and the advent of
the Six Nations Championship.

The game has produced some of sports most famous players from Gareth
Edwards and Barry John to Bill Beaumont  , Will Carling and the current
superstar Jonny Wilkinson. It has also produced two of the most famous
international teams , the British and Irish Lions , particularly the teams
of 1971 and 1974 , and the world renowned Barbarians who ran from their
own try line in 1973 to score the most famous try the game has ever seen.

This DVD takes you through the entire history of rugby from its birth right
through to the resurgent England team of the new Millenium who beat
Australia , New Zealand All Blacks and South Africa Springboks before
winning the 2003 Grand Slam.

Interspersed with interviews with the biggest names in the game and all the
best tries , this programme tells the complete story that is the great game
of rugby.
