No. Just fuck off.
Probably helps to keep it free-to-air, to be fair...
British law means that certain sports events are "crown jewels" and have to be on free to air. The Six Nations is one.

I'm getting old and senile, but I'm sure the England 6N have always been on terrestrial TV. Its been the Summer tour and the AIs which were on Sky.

"Working class" Brits with a chip on their shoulder have this idea in their head that posh-piston wristed gibbons, toffs, London-types, suits, rugby-followers - you know, that sort - wear brown shoes/boots.
It's rather odd. -

It's rather odd.I've never heard of that in my time here. I've rocked up to twickers enough times to know the picture is accurate though. Just missing the flat cap and scarf.
