Brilliant - thanks for putting this up. As an expat I wouldn't get to see this any other way so much appreciated.

Carwyn James was a genius, and that 70s Welsh team was incredible.

What a joy! Especially at the end with the Babas game. I was eight at the time. I thought the All Blacks tour was over. 'What's this 'Barbarians'?? And then getting my mind utterly blown by the most amazing game of rugby unfurling. Has to have been the best game ever. Just thrilling and inspiring to relive it. Well done BBC. These are superbly put together.

Enjoyed it thanks. These days, I live abroad, almost 8 years actually, in the ☀ Great memories, about great players, from all nations. I'd forgotten how strong John Bevan was for example, at just 21/22. I still prefer this style of rugby also. They were playing sport then, now it's sterile 🏉 mostly by athletes. With endorsements sponsorships etc. Great to see Bryan Williams interviewed, great player and an honest man. I can't think of another AB; who'd give credit like he did. Finally as a player and captain, you'd be hard pushed to beat Ian Kirkpatrick, my favourite flank forward. Even though he must have been disappointed, after doing "The Slam" At the final whistle around the forwards, he applauded the BA-BAAS. Great gentleman ✅

Brilliant! Thanks for the upload!

Great documentary, and also interesting to see that at 18:52 the All Black inside centre is tackled off the ball by a dog.

Thank you Bob! Post California collegiate rugby, I toured the UK in 1978 as rugby whore and ended up playing with the then Newport Saracens. The connections my traveling partner and I made included the "powers the be" at the Cardiff club. I even got to play a club level match with Charlie Faulkner [both of us in the 2nd row]. The people of Newport treated as honored guests for at least a month. Timing of this is perfect; my wife and I have tickets for the Wales v France match on Mar 10. So this is bringing lots of memories back into clear focus.

Thanks for posting this------------- the 70s my childhood in Port Talbot/Porthcawl/Abergavenny

Thanks Bob for uploading this programme: youve got say that Wales not appointing Carwyn James as coach was a poor decision. Bevans try in 1972 Wales/NZ game was phenomenal

Quitting the game at 27, when one of the very best to come from these shores is an incredibly brave decision. With restrictions surrounding amateurism though, you can't blame the man

This is brilliant! I have seen no better, of it's theme, in my 64 years. Meur ras.

Wonderful. I fid not realise that the teams that beat the All Blacks were full of the same Welshmen!

Fantastic video, thank you so much for the upload.

Marvelous team....GOAT players...i'm looking forward the part 3🎉🎉🎉

This is an excellent documentary. Long live Gareth Edwards and the rest that are still alive. I'm still waiting for the LLanelli v New Zealand match to be made available on this site. Some of it has been spliced into a few different videos, like We Beat the All Blacks, but heck, the 1963 Newport v NZ match is on this site. Why not the complete LLanelli match?

Don't ever let anyone tell you Barry John didn't tackle. He did.

I still cant believe they won that series..even now..great team though..and thanks to JPR smashing a 45 metre drop kick out of the blue in 4th Test.

To give an insight into what rugby was like at that time - when I turned up for pre season in my 2nd year at University - The WHOLE week was taken by Carwyn James! He told me I wasn't ambitious enough - I don't know. For me it was always no more than recreation on the weekend.

18:50 doggo makes the match and series winning tackle 👍🏼👍🏼

Very strange the makers never explored why the 72 championship wasnt finished

Interesting I didn’t know the context of that Baas Baas game. That said as significant as the welsh contribution was it’d be nice to at least mention the name of a non Welshman in crediting the victory

Rah rah , the sport that’s lived a lie for decades.
