Gabby goes down to the England Rugby training ground ahead of the Women's Six Nations to meet former World Player of the Year Ellie Kildunne and her fellow World Cup winner Jess Breach.

Ellie was named runner-up at SPOTY, and even tattooed head coach John Mitchell! Now they go again in the Six Nations, with a new captain, fresh faces and a target on their back.How do they get themselves motivated to go again at the Six Nations after that World Cup high?
