From The Ruck, the rugby podcast from the Times & Sunday Times we present: The Red Lions.
A special three-part podcast series covering 75 years of the British & Irish Lions through the voices of the players involved and the pages of The Times and Sunday Times.
The Lions have been rugby’s great adventurers since 1888. But it was not until the 1950 tour of New Zealand that they adopted their famous red jersey.
Through this series we will build a golden thread that links that band of intrepid adventurers - the last to go on tour by boat - with this year’s ultra professional squad of Lions who will take on Australia.
On episode two we track the Lions from 1977 to the glory of 1997, as they struggle to emulate the invincibles of '74 before their crowning glory of South Africa in '97, which catapulted the Lions brand into a whole new stratosphere.
