    "I couldn't believe it! It utterly captured the silence of Twickenham as I went behind to Wales. Marvellous!"
    John, Winchester

    "My wife had to leave the room, she couldn't stand listening to Stuart Barnes - completely lifelike!"
    Marcus, Glasgow

    "The dog, who hadn't been well for some time, finally shuffled off this mortal coil after a marathon session exposed him to Brian Moore's negativity for 5 hours. It was like watching it on the TV!"
    Keiran, Cardiff

    "I want my money back! AI Jeremy Guscott was so unspeakably smug that I punched my TV screen in. This game should come with a health warning!"

    ....If this is the England edition, does it end before the knock out stages? Or does it provide an alternative ending?
