About this episode
England's World Cup win of 2003 is now 20 years old and Will Slattery chats to UK sports writer, Owen Slot, looking back on that famous triumph on the latest episode of The Left Wing. Owen has written a new book with Lawrence Dallaglio, The Boys of Winter, chronicling England's march to glory and catching up with the entire squad to see where they are 20 years later. From Jonny Wilkinson's meticulous preparation to Clive Woodward's 'mad professor' reputation, there are so many interesting stories to unpack from one of the legendary international teams. We’ll have another show tomorrow with Sinéad and Rúaidhrí in Tours, bringing you the latest from the Ireland camp as well as previewing the weekend games.
