Rugby Special: The International Championship 1968-69: Wales v. Ireland

on BBC Two England

Introduced by Cliff Morgan

At the historic Cardiff Arms Park the all-conquering Irish - undefeated in four International matches this season - face the final hurdle in their bold bid to win the Triple Crown for the first time since 1949 and the International Championship title which they last won in 1951. And news today of the other big Rugby Union interest in the West where across the Bristol Channel, in a setting far removed from the glamour of the Arms Park, 10,000 partisan Cornishmen packed into the tiny club ground at Redruth will be urging Cornwall to victory over Lancashire in the Final of the County Championship, an honour Cornwall last won in 1908.
