The end of a long wait for Wales as they sealed their first Grand Slam for 39 years.
The Championship had already been sewn up with a round of matches still to come, with no other team managing more than a solitary victory until Scotland’s win over England in the penultimate week.
France were the visitors for the final game of the tournament, and winger Ken Jones scored two of Wales’ four tries in a thumping 21-0 victory at Cardiff.
It was the fourth Grand Slam in Wales’ history, but they had a much shorter wait for the next one – two years in fact.
