Six Nations Rugby

2011

Wales v England

Duration: 3 hours

First broadcast: on BBC One WalesLatest broadcast: on BBC One Northern Ireland

John Inverdale introduces live coverage from the Millennium Stadium as the 2011 Six Nations gets underway. Both Wales and England will be looking to get the tournament off to a good start, with confidence and momentum always even more important in a World Cup year. Wales desperately need to rediscover the winning feeling, having not won any of their last seven matches.

Martin Johnson's England showed glimpses of class in the autumn internationals, most notably beating old rivals Australia, but need to reproduce that form more consistently. Johnson himself was captain the last time England had a Six Nations win at the home of Welsh rugby back in 2003, although the men in white did win 30-17 at Twickenham 12 months ago. Show less
