From Second Row to Centre Stage

Leeds Rugby League player Jamie Jones-Buchanan will be swapping stadiums for a stage later this year when he performs in "Leeds Lads", a play to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Battle of the Somme.

The England international told Sportshour the nerves going out on stage will be "even worse" than those he's felt playing at Old Trafford and Wembley.

The 34-year-old has been telling Sarah Mulkerrins which acting skills he hopes will help with his return to Rugby League and about his most memorable experience on stage.
