Hands Up For Jonny Wilkinson’s Right Boot!

It is the Rugby World Cup 2015 and three ardent rugby fans find themsleves arguing as to which is the greatest moment in the game's history: Francois Piennaar receiving the World Cup from Nelson Mandela in 1997, Jonah Lomu's four astonishing tries for New Zealand against England in the same year, or Jonny Wilkinson's dramatic last minute drop goal in the 2003 World Cup Final.

Disagreements are put on hold when a mysterious stranger forces arrives and offers option involving Frederick Stanley Jackson - a Cornish tin miner who had been on the first ever British Lions tour to New Zealand in 1908.

As the tale of Jackson's extraordinary life unfolds Hands Up for Jonny Wilkinson's Right Boot travels back and forth from the present day to the early 1900's via such moments as Cornwall's County Championship victory of 1908, South Africa's emotional World Cup victory on home soil in 1997 and England's last minute win in Australia in 2003.
