    for anyone who hasn't seen it, or only seen it once :)

    Not sure if it's all of it though.

    I don't think it would have went down well with Henry in 2001, incredibly disliked by everyone.

    And in 2005, everything was a complete shambles.

    At least 97 had some pride, and a real tour ethos from the amateur era.

    Yeah there was a similar documentary made for the 2001 Lions tour - Up Close and Personal. Also very good. All the O Gara/Mc Rae stuff was there and the O Driscoll tries also. Well worth a look.

    And for 2005 called Inside the Lions Den.

    Think '97 was the first one of these (could be wrong). Haven't ever watched either of the other two.
