Ireland make Wales pay for their mistakes

In an open and thrilling RBS Six Nations clash in Cardiff. Wales had a nightmare start when Brian O’Driscoll blocked Stephen Jones’ kick and Rory Best scored after 46 seconds.

The hosts worked their way back through three Jones penalties, but the Irish led at half-time as O’Driscoll dived over in the corner for a converted try.

A third Irish try nine minutes from the end, Ronan O’Gara scoring from close range, ended Welsh hopes of a comeback.

Crushing win over Italy

France opened the defence of their RBS Six Nations title with a crushing five-try win over a disappointing Italy at the Stadio Flaminio in Rome. Italy had been thought capable of springing a shock, but the home side failed to convert chances into points.

Tries from Christophe Dominici, Cedric Heymans and Sebastien Chabal put France in a commanding 17-3 lead at the break.

It was more of the same in the second half, with Chabal crossing again before Yannick Jauzion added a fifth.

With garden fetes and neighbourhood watch meetings replacing the action of the city, Angel struggles to adapt to his situation and finds himself partnered with Danny Butterman, an oafish but well meaning young Constable.

Just as all seems lost, a series of grisly accidents motivates Angel into action. Convinced of foul play, Angel realises that Sandford may not be as idyllic as it seems.

extremely civil war debated!

When the Normans invaded England, they built a line of castles along the Welsh border in order to keep the barbarous Welsh at bay. In doing so, they unwittingly instigated centuries of debate and rivalry.

The most important castles stood in what was to become Monmouthshire, and it led to the creation of an uneasy ‘boundary’ region: Welsh land manned by English soldiers.
