I very rarely appear on this platform these days, but I’ll make an exception to say congratulations to my great friend and colleague, the utterly magnificent Ian Robertson, who has just been awarded an OBE for services to rugby and broadcasting. Well done old boy.

I’d seen some chat about there not being a way to wake up and watch the World Cup highlights without seeing the score. Well the BBC has created a link so you can do that without spoilers. bbc.co.uk/nospoilers
