The British and Irish Lions can be traced back to 1888 when a combined 'Home Unions' side toured the Southern Hemisphere, eventually leading to what is known today as The Lions Tour. Nowadays every four years, thousands of fans travel with the British and Irish Lions to Australia, New Zealand and South Africa to provide a unique occasion in the Southern Hemisphere.
British & Irish Lions on DVD
Early Lions tours were only fleetingly captured on film by local news crews and it was not really until the 1970s when reasonable coverage of the Test matches began. Fortunately for rugby fans Lions tours are now extensively covered by TV cameras, providing coverage of the provincial games too.
Highlights of British and Irish Lions tours to Australia, New Zealand and South Africa are now regularly produced on DVD shortly after each tour. These generally provide action from the Test matches, important provincial games and a certain amount of candid 'behind-the-scenes' footage.
