fans can access an extra half hour of analysis and reaction after
the Ireland v England RBS Six Nations game on Sunday (30 March 2003)
on Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓƵ Interactive.

pressing the red button on the TV handset, viewers will be able
to see extra interviews that have not been used in the main Six
Nations Grandstand programme.

session will be hosted by John Inverdale and viewers will be able
to text in questions from their handset or their mobile phone for
pundits Jonathan Davies and Jeremy Guscott to answer.
Throughout
the match, fans can text questions to former internationals Will
Carling and John Beattie, who will be hosting an Interactive analysis
service.
They
will both be based in the studio at Television Centre in London
and will provide their insight into the game.
The
Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓƵ Interactive service will also provide a range of commentary
options, including Welsh language commentary, and a more Irish flavour
with commentary from Jim Neilly.
Network
television commentators for the Ireland v England game will be Eddie
Butler and Brian Moore.
Injured
Irish player Keith Wood joins Jeremy Guscott and Jonathan Davies
as a studio analyst, and Sonja McLaughlan will provide touchline
