The same day he was asked to be England captain, Jamie George found out his mum had been diagnosed with cancer. 

In this podcast, the Saracens hooker reveals the joy his mum got from watching him lead England, and how it kept her positive in her final months. How he had to balance his emotions when his first child was born 10 days after her passing and how his England teammates supported him throughout it all. George also opens up on growing up with older twin brothers, why being the team's social secretary was so important to him and the origins of his nickname 'Jinx'.

You will also hear from Jamie's dad Ian, his twin brothers Gareth and Jonathan, as well as England flanker Ethan Roots and assistant coach Andrew Strawbridge.
