It has been announced that Gethin Jones will present a special Rugby World Cup show on Real Radio starting Friday 9 September.

His co-host for the show is one of Wales most-capped centres, ex-London Welsh, Saracens and Cardiff Blues player, Tom Shanklin (right).

As well as following Wales’s progress, the ‘Gethin’s Rugby World Cup’ showwill feature guests from the world of rugby and entertainment.

It will be broadcast across Wales from 6pm to 7pm every Friday and Monday and on Sundays 7pm to 8pm throughout the tournament.

Gareth Setter, programme controller for Real Radio Wales, said: “Bringing Gethin and Tom to Real Radio Wales is a complete coup. We are thrilled to welcome them both as part of Real Radio’s Rugby World Cup Team. Even more so, we look forward to joining the whole of Wales in getting right behind Warren Gatland’s men and supporting Wales through every step of the tournament.”

Gethin (left) said: “I’m chuffed to be coming home to Wales to present the show on Real Radio. I’m the most passionate Rugby fan. With quite a few mates in the Welsh Rugby scene, I’m looking forward to some great banter as well as the serious business of disagreeing with everything Tom says.”
