Today, former Scotland international Andy Nicol confirmed the Scotland game against Wales will be last match working for the broadcaster.
He wrote: "After 20 years with @BBCSport the Scotland v Wales game on Saturday will be my last on TV. It’s been a total privilege to work for the BBC on the @SixNationsRugby for so long. Thank you!:
#2. Brian Moore
"My England career began with a Calcutta Cup, and my BBC co-comms career on the Men's 6 Nations will end on Saturday with another," Moore said on Twitter in 2022.
"Thank you to all at BBC Sport, especially my mate, Eddie Butler. It's been a privilege to work on some unforgettable sporting occasions.”
He added: “I’m pleased to say I will be working on the Women’s 6 Nations coverage. My commitment to women’s rugby goes back as far as 1991, helping the England forwards. Women’s rugby is the key to sustaining all rugby long term, and I’m proud to still be involved.”

The former England centre will no longer feature in the coverage, which he has been a part of since the turn of the millennium, having decided to focus on other business interests.
#4. John Inverdale
