Story and premise
Craig Doyle, Martin Bayfield and Sarra Elgan present BT Sport's live rugby magazine show.
Rugby Tonight airs Wednesday evenings at 8pm from September to May. It is a show that sets out to both entertain and inform, and is jammed packed with reviews and previews all the best of the action and headline stories from the Aviva Premiership as well as the European Champions Cup.
The show is filmed in front of a live studio audience of up to 200 people, with local rugby clubs taking part in demonstrations of play on the studio pitch. Celebrities and guest talent take part in studio challenges and there is plenty of fun and banter throughout. Rugby Tonight takes an informal, yet highly informative look at the game.
Austin Healey looks after the social media, interacting with viewers in a way that is inclusive and fun and showing all the best rugby clips and tweets from online.
Pundits on the show also include 2003 World Cup Winners Ben Kay and Lawrence Dallaglio.
