Women's Six Nations: France v England

Venue: Stade Chaban-Delmas, Bordeaux Date: Saturday, 27 April Kick-off: 16:45 BST

Coverage: Watch live on BBC One, BBC iPlayer and online; live commentary on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra; text commentary, highlights and report on BBC Sport website and app.

England's dominant 14-try victory over Ireland in front of the second-highest women's rugby crowd of 48,778 has set up a Grand Slam decider against France for the third year in a row.

Victory in Bordeaux on Saturday would secure a third successive Grand Slam and sixth Six Nations title in a row for the Red Roses.

The competitive nature of the tournament has lacked over recent years, with England romping to big victories, but the decider has always lived up to hype.

Only five points separated the sides at Twickenham in front of a record women's crowd of 58,498 last year, 12 points were between the pair in Bayonne a year prior and four points in 2021.

The Red Roses have had the edge over their French rivals ever since their last Six Nations defeat in 2018, however, they have had to work for it.

France defeated Wales 40-0 in Cardiff on Sunday to keep their Grand Slam hopes alive.

Poll -- Ethiopian restaurant in Pattaya?

Jingthing · yesterday at 08:51 AM1 day

There are a number of cuisines types that are probably more obviously missing in Pattaya now (notably Indonesian and Malaysian) but this topic is about Ethiopian. I'm curious about the interest and possible demand for a decently priced, reasonably good/authentic Ethiopian restaurant here. I know that many urban Americans are familiar with Ethiopian food, but I'm not sure about Europeans and other nationalities. It's my impression that it;'s a kind of food that once tried, the majority will li

georgegeorgia · yesterday at 02:43 AM1 day

I would like to try a beautiful delicious seafood buffet I don't know where to go in Pattaya for this ,hence I'm seeking analysis on this project I'm not particularly concerned about price , but as I don't like crowds or people sitting near me , I don't like too many people where it's obnoxiously overcrowded where people are pushing shoving fighting for the food I find people seem attracted to me like honey to a pot , I could be in a restaurant say Sizzlers and there is hundreds of tables

The International Left's Dangerous Appeasement of Iran, A Wake Up Call for Global Security! In an era where state sponsors of terrorism like Iran continue to escalate their nuclear threats, it's alarming to see elements of the international left, including disillusioned citizens of Western countries, turning a blind eye or even justifying such actions as responses to USA/Israel aggression, especially after repeated attempts at negotiations . This pattern of appeasement not only undermines glob

Trump Will TACO On Iran

Terrance8812 · 14 hours ago14 hr

It has reached that familiar moment where there is nothing meaningful left to bomb from the air, yet the treacherous regime is still firmly in place. We have seen this same plot play out many times before. Even though the first two or three levels of leadership have been killed, there are still plenty of hardliners waiting in the wings ready to step straight into those roles. Trump now has two options. Either send in ground forces to try to destroy Iran's large military and hunt down whatever u

“Djalili: UK should seize ayatollah’s properties Omid Djalili, the British-Iranian comedian, said the British government should seize the assets of Iran’s new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, including his extensive property portfolio in London, “People are not seeing these people coming in from the West to create regime change,” he told Times Radio. “Look at the new supreme leader. We’ve just found out that in Britain he has properties worth £250 million pounds. And when the Ukraine war happen

Iran is winning and will likely win the war against the USA

Jingthing · 14 hours ago14 hr

It certainly doesn't please me to realize this dark reality. This is a war that Trump (snookered by Israel) should have never started in the first place. However, this war more than anything else clearly signals to me that the American empire is declining rapidly. Maybe call it a suicide. This topic is being started to discuss and track the events related to Iran winning this war against the USA. I call it a war against the USA rather than a war against the USA and Israel because it would be

When facing an autocracy built on 47 years of intimidation and murder by proxy,murdering its own citizens while threatening death and destruction,peace through strength pushes aside appeasing. Negotiations failed with a country that has repeatedly proven unwilling to abandon its nuclear ambitions, support for terrorism, or revolutionary ideology, as seen in the collapse of the JCPOA, stalled Vienna talks, and recent 2025 thru 2026 diplomatic efforts that ended in military action rather than compromise.

After Aggressive Pruning: Can/will this tree even survive?

GammaGlobulin · 2 hours ago2 hr

Dear Folks, As we all know, most trees in the city, or the suburbs, get pruned. Most seem to survive this cutting. However, some never recover. At this time, I am worried about my favorite tree which has been growing near my property for some time, and which has provided me with welcome shade from the sun, during the Hot Seasons. I have no idea concerning the botanical name for this species of tree. I just know that it once was beautiful. My hope is that it will re-grow into its former se

Why do electric-power outages very rarely happen during evening hours?

GammaGlobulin · 18 hours ago18 hr

Dear Folks, Have you ever wondered why grid-related power outages are extremely rare during evening hours, while PEA workers are asleep? Yet, they happen all the time while these PEA workers are awake and ON-THE-JOB? Ever wondered about THIS? Just an innocent question...and.... Can you, or anyone, provide a good and logical explanation? Please feel free to chime-in with your thoughts. Thank you. Best regards, Gamma NOTE: By evening hours, we mean about 7:00pm to 5:30am, in case we need

Does Thailand Have A Sniffing Obsession?

SoCal1990 · 23 hours ago23 hr

I have always been slightly baffled by Thailand’s long running love affair with menthol and camphor inhalers. Years ago you used to see people everywhere walking around with those little stick inhalers jammed up their nostrils. Often they would just leave them hanging there unattended like an ornamental piece of nose jewelry. Some of them even had that double barrel design so you could apparently ventilate both sides of your brain at the same time. Back then it was a common sight to see a Thai b
