    It would seem that this was a fixture, originally scheduled for Saturday 4th January but cancelled due to snow, played on the following Saturday 11th January. It was between Leicester Tigers and New Zealand Services (i.e. not really the'All Blacks') but probably representing New Zealand as it was so soon after the end of the First World War.

    The venue is definitely Welford Road, which is still the Tigers' ground, and the result was a 19-0 victory for New Zealand Services.

British Pathe captured many extraordinary events on film over its 80 year history but sometimes the cameras were switched on when tragedy struck.
Franz Reichelt
The death penalty has been carried out in almost all societies and although these images from WWI and WWII are unsettling, they still provide a raw account of events from a certain time.

The Duke of Edinburgh has many talents, but it is his unique way with words that often receives the most attention.
