We learnt last Thursday of the passing of Gloucester Rugby great Mickey Booth. Our thoughts are with all of his family and friends. We were joined by Ian Taylor whose father played for Gloucester alongside Mickey in the 1960's to share his memories.

Meanwhile Ed and Russ attended the 4ED Charity event at Kingsholm reminiscing about the 2003 Cup Final victory over Northampton - the last time we won at Twickenham.

Northampton themselves pulled off an incredible win away in Dublin to secure a Champions Cup Final place against Bordeaux, who beat reigning holders Toulouse. We chat through two excellent Semi-Finals.

Finally, we give our view on the Lions squad (to be announced on Thursday afternoon) and whether Tomos Williams will find himself selected.
