Gareth Charles will be joined in the commentary box by Gwyn Jones and Sioned Harries, while Shane Williams, Jamie Roberts, Bryan Habana, Mike Phillips, Elinor Snowsill and Nigel Owens will be among the big names providing analysis throughout the tour.

Lauren Jenkins said: "Every Lions tour is a special occasion but the fact that they will be taking on the current world champions, South Africa, gives this tour an extra dimension.

"The Springboks are revered for their toughness and physicality and they will be determined to defend their proud record on their own territory.
