S2023E4 - England v Italy
England v Italy (Kick-off 3.00pm). Mark Pougatch presents all the action from the final match in the second round of fixtures, held at Twickenham. England have won all 29 of the previous meetings between the sides, but the Italians did give them a scare here two years ago when they took an early lead thanks to a Monty Ioane try, before the hosts turned things around, scoring six tries in a 41-18 win. However, Italy are seemingly on an upward curve and will be buoyed by a memorable 22-21 win in Cardiff last March and by an impressive 28-27 victory over Australia in November. With analysis from Clive Woodward, Jonny Wilkinson and Lawrence Dallaglio, pitchside reports by Martin Bayfield and Maggie Alphonsi, and commentary from Nick Mullins, Ben Kay and David Flatman.

S2023E5 - Italy v Ireland
Italy v Ireland (Kick-off 2.15pm). Jill Douglas presents all the action from both teams' third match of the championship, held at Stadio Olimpico. Italy lost their opening two matches at home to France and away to England, but will have found positives in their performances. However, the odds are stacked against them when they face Andy Farrell's men, who produced a strong display in an away win against Wales in Cardiff, before ending the French's run of seven straight Six Nations triumphs with a victory in Dublin. With analysis from Brian O'Driscoll, Rory Best and Maggie Alphonsi, commentary by Nick Mullins, Gordon D'Arcy and David Flatman, pitchside input from Lawrence Dallaglio, and reports from Gabriel Clarke.

S2023E6 - France v Scotland
France v Scotland (Kick-off 3.00pm). Mark Pougatch presents coverage of the final match in the third round of fixtures, held at Stade de France. The French are the reigning champions, but laboured past Italy in their opener in Rome, before suffering a defeat away to Ireland last time out. They now face another tough test against the Scots, who are unbeaten so far following a third successive victory over England and a dominant display at home to Wales. With analysis from Ian McGeechan, Benjamin Kayser and Jonny Wilkinson, with pitchside inserts by Martin Bayfield and Jim Hamilton, and commentary from Miles Harrison, Scott Hastings and Ben Kay.
