Tom Curry swims his way around the resulting maul to concede another penalty.

A decision to be made - five metres in from the right, 25 metres out...

To the corner...

Scotland win another penalty after the bustling run of Hamish Watson threatens to puncture a hole, England again infringing at the breakdown. Scotland will throw a lineout just outside the English 22.

But Maro Itoje charges down Price's attempted clearance! Those long limbs get up high and block the box, and he is swift to get on to the loose ball, but has little support, and the first arriving player dives off their feet to protect the ball. Scotland can clear the penalty away.

Fast start from Itoje, back in the thick of things after a fallow winter with Saracens inactive until recently and risking few of their big guns in their sole encounter this year with Ealing.

Scotland claim the kick-off and clear their lines, Henry Slade's first carry in anger well handled by the Scottish defence, and England forced to the boot.

Another exchange of kicks sees Ben Youngs eventually hoist a box kick skywards, and a retreating Ali Price does well to gather it.

Andrew Brace of Ireland is the man in the middle, while Joy Neville has her hands at the keys in the TMO truck ready to join in as required.

A peep of the whistle, and off we go...

England's players are accompanied by Laura Wright's soprano - little fuss as she crescendos to the final note, and into battle the players will stride.

The socially distanced Scottish squad sing along to the bagpipes of "Flower of Scotland", Stuart Hogg swaying with nervous anticipation and adrenaline at the end of the line. The captain is ready.

The players also observe a silence as rugby unites against racism, with most of the England squad and a number of Scots taking a knee with bowed heads.

Out onto the field come the players, each side clad in something a little special: Scotland's players each wear kits adorned with the name of their equivalent from that first fixture 150 years ago at Raeburn Place, while England have a special anniversary kit modelled on the one worn on that occasion.

All in the ground clap in commemeration of some of those we have sadly lost from the rugby fraternity recently, along with Captain Tom.
