England have been in four Rugby World Cup finals and only won one of them. In 2003, this team was the one that did it. And this is their story in their words.

The image of Jonny Wilkinson’s last-minute winning drop goal is etched deep into the nation’s consciousness. More than twenty years on, with their achievement still unmatched,
the affection and respect this band of brothers command is as great as ever.
