- Calcutta Cup: England 6-11 Scotland
- Scotland claim first win at Twickenham since 1983
Having gone 10 years without a victory outside Murrayfield in the Six Nations other than the away banker in Rome, Scotland made it two in succession after October’s success against Wales in Llanelli. Both the winning margin and the performance were similar: taking a grip at forward, minimising risk, and in doing so highlighting the bluntness of England’s attack.
