jonathanjoseph for them, now to build on that. with jonathan joseph in the for them, now to build on that. with jonathanjoseph in the try scoring mood, no batter man. lovely step. what a try, two tries. but scotland we re what a try, two tries. but scotland were not here to make up the numbers. gordon reid just getting them back in the game. and as quickly as they were in, england push them back out again. perfect timing in the backline as scotland we re timing in the backline as scotland were swept aside. anthony watson with their third try at the heart. hard to watch with some and it did not get any better for vern cotter after the break. momentum stayed with england. a try, a hat trick the jonathan josef. a huge stride was gollum would not spoil the english party. putt—mac a huge try for scotland. party. putt—mac a huge try for scotla nd. atla nta party. putt—mac a huge try for scotland. atlanta but the beat. danny care getting in the action too. taking england's tally to seven. equalling 18 victory in the

row, calcutta had cut and the six nations trophy will be listed also. it was what we built up in the week, we did that and we saw that albert today. i'll set these was unbelievable and what we saw off the back about was good too. we are proud and happy and look forward to next week. today, fantastic, good style. ruthless performance. we asked the team to make a decision and other team asked the team to make a decision and otherteaml asked the team to make a decision and other team i think we took a step forward today. all eyes on next week now, i suppose. we are trying to move away from being plucky losers. that was useless, that is not us, that is not what we have tried to build two. we have got one week left, one game, if we play like that, we have got no chance. let's

go tojoe who is at twickenham for us. go tojoe who is at twickenham for us. england not celebrating too much of the moment but an incredible day for them. absolutely. eddie jones for them. absolutely. eddiejones said after the game this was the kind of rugby he was ready to play and england wa nted he was ready to play and england wanted to play a fortnight ago when italy came with their clever or cynical, however you want to look at it, spoiling offside tactics. i think that built up a sense of frustration in the england team and this is the kind of performance we we re this is the kind of performance we were sort of half expecting they could produce but we were starting to wonder if they could. definitely they were helped by that very tackle by fraser brown which enabled the gap to emerge as we heard. scotland struggled with injuries in the first half, steve and went off, and then his replacement was brought. people talk a lot in rugby ‘s these days ago hit about gain line, if you make space you have to have someone to exploit it. injonathan

space you have to have someone to exploit it. in jonathan josef, space you have to have someone to exploit it. injonathanjosef, they have a great ball runner. someone who can exploit those openings, who can produce the kind of rugby that brings people in their tens of thousands to rugby stadiums like this. i can understand scotland's frustration that they were outplayed today. in terms of the last game for england against ireland, there is still something to play for because of this record, the record run that they are on. that is one thing lasted playful. the break that record held by new zealand within those aiding, could be 19 consecutive victories for england. they have not had the cheesy play against new zealand and that she will come up in the next seven days. eddie jones that she will come up in the next seven days. eddiejones looks further than that, he says this is the beginning. the beginning. the start of a project that him and england, a project that will end in japan in 2019 world cup. he has been trying to win but he has also been experimenting to a certain extent and that is whyjonathanjosef did not play and then came back and

played so well here. eddiejones is masterful at keeping everyday, even someone as masterful at keeping everyday, even someone as good masterful at keeping everyday, even someone as good as masterful at keeping everyday, even someone as good asjonathanjosef on his toes. thank you very much. joe was talking about the coach eddiejones and what he has been saying, particularly about this project that england are on. let's hear from about this project that england are on. let's hearfrom him now. about this project that england are on. let's hear from him now. our focus is on the island. we want to win the grand slam, it is a chance to make history. no one has ever won a back—to—back grand slam in the six nations history. i think there is only four in the history of five nations and six nations so this is a once—in—a—lifetime opportunity and certainly we are pleased to be six nations champions at the grand slam is something we are really looking forward to. earlier in rome, france scored four tries to secure a bonus point victory over italy, who now look destined for another wooden spoon. joe lynskey reports. for some, they are in the rugby team

that don't play rugby. england almost led to a famous success at twickenham, to france they are in the rugby team to which they dare not lose but continental rivalry brings out the best in the underdogs and italy made the perfect start. he crossed for the opener. at 33, he is italy's evergreen tallies man. braun and brilliance. the french again have struggled to assert themselves on this tournament but when their flowing style of rugby does emerge, it is worth savouring. 0h, oh, what 0h, whata oh, what a dummy. for italy, successful so close yet so far away, their fast starts so often falls apart. it was too easy. italy have shown they can be ingenious but this was a week of errors. a famous success in the six nations still feels some way off. so here's confirmation

of england's unassailable lead, they top the six nations table. four wins out of four, eight pints clear of both ireland and france. —— points. and england go to ireland next week to try and claim the record 19th win in a row, and the triple crown. the women's six nations will go down to the final weekend, with both ireland and england winning their penultimate matches this afternoon to remain unbeaten in the tournament. england's kay wilson ran in a record seven tries against scotland, while earlier ireland edged past wales. nick parrot has more. locked at seven points, the only difference between ireland and wales was hannah terrill. her try was enough to keep i'll‘s grand slam hopes alive. if she was the saviour at the part, kay wilson was the inspiration for england against scotla nd inspiration for england against scotland at the stoop. victory would

set upa scotland at the stoop. victory would set up a final showdown at ireland but only the score was in doubt as wilson rewrote the record books. this is good to be trying number format. no one had managed out in the first half of the women's six nations game before. wilson was the first couple of matches in the championship but missed nothing against scotland. she was at it against scotland. she was at it again in the second half, piling on the misery, making more history. seven tries for kay wilson. in her wildest dreams, she would have never thought this was possible. the her, the team comes first when she was informed by her seven tries with the competition record, the look on her face said it all what she remained modest. it was so much funds. on a team, we want to build on what we built on last week. we are happy with our performance and it is great to be here. running tries into the corners meant only two were converted. but the last one helped

england surpassed their biggest victory in this year's competition bya victory in this year's competition by a point. ireland will be hoping who was then be decided on friday will give them some advantage against rampant england. putts—mac hoping hosting. it's heading to the final game in dublin — ireland take on england next weekend. it is on saint patrick's day. both sides are on 18 points, both sides are unbeaten, the winner takes the title. to domestic rugby now, and it's the semi—finals of the anglo—welsh cup — with saracens taking on leicester right now. lester got off to be better start. and it's the tigers who are leading 7—0 thanks to 20—year—old full back george worth getting his first try in the leicester first team. henry taylor has just pulled it back with a try for his club. another game going on in the pro 12, ulster are hosting zebre.

this game kicked off just after six o'clock. the home side will be expecting nothing less than a bonus point win against the bottom club. tries scored by luke marshall. they are infull tries scored by luke marshall. they are in full control. we'll keep you updated with those games a little later, but now it's time to focus on football — jess has more over at the plasma. thanks, karthi. alongside me is ourfootball reporterjohn bennett. we'll start with the fa cup, where top flight arsenal are taking on non—league lincoln. we have just come out again at after half—time, arsenal are 1—0 up. arsenal needed that goal because linkedin have played really well. —— lincoln. it was the year walcott who scored what is the only goal

deflected as well to add to the bad luck. 9000 lincoln fans are bare. they are having a great day out but very unlucky near the end. arsenal, you can see how important this game was for us like the pixies strongest possible team. if they win this, the pressure is still on. they have got west bromwich and manchester city nextin west bromwich and manchester city next in the premier league but personally had to win this game. they have missed a really good just to make it two. you have mentioned the manager there, he has acknowledged the fans are not happy with him and how arsenal are playing. anything less than a win here is not good enough for them?m isa here is not good enough for them?m is a narrative protesting but perhaps a majority arsenal fans who wa nt perhaps a majority arsenal fans who want him to haven't dignified exit at the end of the season. it looks like they will be into the fa cup semifinals of linking to come up with something special. —— lincoln. thank you. manchester city had a comfortable 2—nil win over middlesbrough

to book their place in the semi finals of the fa cup. city manager, pep guardiola, had said his first season at the club would be judged as a failure, if he doesn't win a trophy. but they are now one step closer to silverware. ben croucher reports. the modern middlesbrough fan arrives more in hope than expectation, too young to remember their last run to wembley 20 years ago. in that time manchester city fans have become more accustomed to success and goals too, 13 in three rounds today. make that 1a in 4. goals have been harder to come by for middlesbrough and from there it was more a case of attack versus defence, a question of how many and how did he miss that. city even tried to repeat theirfirst goal but not this time, push hard enough and eventually middlesbrough‘s rearguard caved.

pep guardiola has a wembley date in his first season in charge but middlesbrough‘s wait to returm goes on. we're happy to be in wembley, we make an exceptional captain, against premier league teams, top of the championship. we had to work a lot and we deserve it by far to be there. he looks pretty happy with that. he's building a strong side and they delivered. eight wins in that run of 11 games and he was able

to bring off a player, they have got a huge game, haven't they, against monaco. 5—3 up at monaco scoring fine goals. a huge view we coming from manchester city, monaco, liverpool, arsenal and chelsea, decisive their season but they are ina good decisive their season but they are in a good front at the moment. let's see how they carry on in the following weeks. let's bring you news from the scottish scottish premiership, where there were five games today. hull, 2-1 hull, 2—1winners. still in the relegation zone, this will hopefully turn the momentum for them. relegation zone, this will hopefully turn the momentum for themm relegation zone, this will hopefully turn the momentum for them. it has brought things close, this man is the hero. ajanuary signing, signed from everton, four goals in his last four home games. he scored both goals, brought off the bench by the manager who is having a brilliant time at hull. he has turned things around. excellent run but they did

not give him a locker, they relegated him to the reserves and now he has turned into a hero. let's hear from the manager. now he has turned into a hero. let's hearfrom the manager. they now he has turned into a hero. let's hear from the manager. they have got a chance fell to stay up. he's wanting to play well, to stay with the ball. very good and after the set pieces, very good kicker as well. to control the game in the first half, you don't get a lot of chances but you have the moment, i felt, a little bit nervous. we improve our attitude as well, spirit as well, more calm and more problems for them and we scored two goals. i think it is a fair result for us. bradford turning point when he went off and knack gave them a lift, seeing their top scorer go off down the tunnel. he has been a key player

for us recently and he gives a different threats, that was a loss for us. he is a good player who came on. but i think the injuries did hurt us but we have to defend a lot better. let's move onto bombers against west ham, 3—2 winners there. the sigh of relief that must‘ve gone round the stadium if they had not won a league game in eight matches. —— bournemouth. won a league game in eight matches. -- bournemouth. new year's eve was their last win. what a roller—coaster day forjosh king. he missed a penalty and then west ham scored, this was earlier in the game, then he went on to score a hat—trick. an amazing day forjosh king is on a great run of goal—scoring form. relief that eddie howe because they were slipping towards the relegation zone. now they are one point behind watford. they have taken a job. west ham, a poor run, ball games without a win.

we were here from eddie howell now. a fantastic victory for ball. relief, there always is when you achieve a positive result and those circumstances as well, there's a whole mix of emotions. quite a journey, that game, from one end to another. it sums up the premier league this season, the ups and downs extreme. i think we played very well at times today, two penalties, they came back hours. we came back at them initially and tha n kfu lly came back at them initially and thankfully we got the winning goal. we are disappointed, especially when you have so many chances and at the 0livier, when you score goals, you should get something out of the game. let's have a look at what those matches have done to the bottom of the table. hull is not out of danger yet. bournemouth as well. sitting comfortable, as you say, they could be dragged in at this point. what a difference a win would

have made the swansea. it is very close. sunderland are in danger. middlesbrough cannot seem to score. the next few weeks mass of them. bournemouth, you can see what a difference it makes, costume 1a now. let's bring you news of everton. 3—0 winners against west bromwich. 19th goal of this season for this player. his best ever. he's got the third goal. against the team tried to sign him, west brom, really good day for him. but everton, excellent run of form to him. west bromwich reached 40 form to him. west bromwich reached a0 points and since then, they have lost two and conceded five. tony will be concerned about that because they got games against the six teams coming up. ronald koeman know, an excellent afternoon for his team. coming up. ronald koeman know, an excellent afternoon for his teamlj think the second half, we controlled it. i think our defensive

organisation, we know the strengths, outstanding today. i am really pleased by the professional way how we got the win today, offensively but also defensively. considering the two goals before half—time killed us, up until that point we we re well killed us, up until that point we were well in the game. the players we re pretty were well in the game. the players were pretty outstanding for them today and that final third, they are the ones who have benefited from it today but you cannot fault the players, they have worked really hard, but a lot of effort into this game. the top of the premier league table. everton and west brom, looking pretty safe. they are doing well for themselves. chelsea well out in front, it is not worth talking about them now. liveable in action on sunday taking on burnley, big

opportunity of them. —— liveable. it could be a huge game for liverpool. they have not done well against the teams at the bottom of the table. thank you. let's bring you news from the scottish premiership, where there were five games today. aberdeen moved further ahead of third—placed rangers with a late goal to beat motherwell hearts dominated against hamilton, a-o. a last—gasp goal from inverness caledonian thistle rescued a point at partick thisle, 1—1. kilmarnock beat ross county, 2—1. and stjohnstone were 2—0 winners against dundee. well, in scotland, rangers have a new manager this afternoon. pedro caixinha has signed a three year deal, he's friends with fellow portuguese managerjose mourinho, and we spoke with our correspondent alasdair lamont about what rangers fans can expect of there new man. pedro caixinha is a name that has come out of left field but rangers believe he is the man who can take them on. they have been looking for

a director of football, they were trying to bring in a new structure to the club. they have not managed to the club. they have not managed to get the man they wanted that, that was ross wilson who is at southampton. they have identified pedro caixinha is the man they want to be the manager and finally today arrived in glasgow and he assigned signed a three—year contract. he does know a bit about scottish football but i think he will be in charge after tomorrow's game against celtic but tomorrow's introduction to scottish football is going to be entirely different to anything he's explained so far. this man, he knows mourinho. you can imagine that rangers fans have got something to look forward to in terms of the way their team is going to play. they won't know too much about him, he did well in mexico football. he is well respected. portuguese coaches are in fashion at the moment, the one at monaco as well. a strong personality, we hear.

and mixed reputation with foreign coaches but let's see how he gets on. indeed. thank you forjoining us. on. indeed. thank you forjoining us. arsenal have gone 2—0 up against lincoln in the fa cup. some of the other sports. elise christie has become the first british woman to win a title at the world short track speed skating championships. christie claimed gold in the 1500 metres, finishing just 0.12 seconds ahead of her nearest rival. the win represents an excellent comeback for christie who was contemplating laeaving the sport after being disqualified from all three of her events at the 201a winter olympics. not such great news in badminton. after victory against the olympic champions yesterday, chris and gabby adcock suffered a narrow defeat in the mixed doubles semi finals of the all england 0pen. the couple had a match point in the deciding set against their chinese opponents but chris broke a string as they lost the rally. lu and huang closed out the match

22—20 in the decider. the adcock‘s equalled their run to the final four at last year's tournament. they are pretty unhappy at the result. i think we just got really unlucky and chris breaking a string at such a key point is not ideal and it is a hard one to take at the minute. how difficult was it to refocus? at 20, there were still lots to play for but it is terribly unlucky, this doesn't happen very often and to happen on that one point, that is sport, i suppose. it is really hard to look back on it at the minute and just gutted to have match point, to have been here on sunday would have been amazing. team sky's geraint thomas took second place on stage four of tirreno—adriatico while adam yates was close behind to move up to second overall in the race. columbian nairo quintana was first up the final climb to the finish of the 106 mile stage, with victory giving him the overall lead.

thomas was eighteen seconds behind, but lies eighth in the standings. there are three stages left for yates to try to overhaul the 33 second gap to quintana. that is it from us. england have beaten scotland so they retain the six nature ‘s title. we are back at 7:30pm. good evening. it has been a daily decent day for many parts of the country. but those in essex earlier, the sun was shining, it felt like spring as it did. injersey, shining, it felt like spring as it did. in jersey, we shining, it felt like spring as it did. injersey, we have had lots of the fog in recent days. there is still some around the southgate and some of the channel islands. you can

see this massive cloud here, it has been quite thin to the north and south that there has been some rather treat conditions for southern scotland. a team with the high in the south—east, the warmest day of the south—east, the warmest day of the year so far in northern ireland. those clear skies will not stay close along former northern ireland, a weather front close along former northern ireland, a weatherfrontjoining close along former northern ireland, a weather frontjoining us across the uk. it tends to pep up a bit overnight. with all that cloud, some drizzly rain, it is not going to be a cold night for most parts of the country. bradford in the highlands, within 2 degrees above freezing but is basically mild and great and murky to start tomorrow. between that, there are some brighter skies to be found, the midlands, or east anglia, the south—east, perhaps the far east, it will be a cloudier, damp day. the rain will tend to fizzle out. after the dry start for wales, age weather front moving fizzle out. after the dry start for wales, age weatherfront moving in. the second half of the morning

onwards would be a nice day four northern ireland and granted that this weather system stays offshore of eastern scotland, here are all so there should be a good deal ofjoy and pride whether through the morning and even once the weather front starts to push its weight gradually ease with, slow progress, the spine of the country could do quite well. very little hope of much brightness boat across the eastern side of the uk. temperature will be high, slightly cooler air but it will not be as mild or even as warm as it has been today. still some usable weather around, do the evening and overnight as the skies clear way, the weather fronts disappear. it will be a cold night. monday morning, a touch of frost in rural areas. a bit more car coming into the north and west on monday. the most of us, this ridge of high pressure brings the frost rain but also bring some decent weather. good spells of sunshine breaking through, particularly in the south. more cloud was the north and west. the

weather front will move southwards as we move into tuesday. a lot of dry weather. this is bbc news. the headlines at seven. famine in parts of africa and the middle east could lead to the biggest humanitarian crisis since 19a5, according the united nations. a retiring judge is criticised for saying women can protect themselves against potential rapists by not getting too drunk. critics say her remarks blame victims for the crime. the labour leader, jeremy corbyn, says it would be absolutely fine for scotland to hold a second independence referendum. the government cracks down on ticket touts, banning computer software which buys
