Video: Brilliant ad for the Lions tour

The Lions tour might be a way away yet, but there's no reason we can't be excited about it already

By Adrian Collins

Brian O'Driscoll and Warren Gatland star in this great ad for the Lions tour, which is getting us hyped up already for the games.

Captain Cook was the first European to have recorded contact with the coast of Australia, so the Master and Commander style ad is based on his ship, 'Endeavour', as a preview to the 125th anniversary Lions tour.

We hope they're not actually going by boat anyway, that would be a pretty long journey in close quarters. Keep an eye out for a load of Lions legends and players in the ad, apart from our own Brian, of course.
