Title: A Guided Missile – Tim Stimpson on Rugby, Life & Business

Description: Welcome to The World of Lord Russell Podcast Talk Show! In this episode, A Guided Missile, we sit down with former England international and British & Irish Lions full back Tim Stimpson.

Tim shares his journey from school days at Silcoates and Durham University to his professional rugby career with Wakefield, West Hartlepool, Newcastle Falcons, Leicester Tigers, Perpignan, Leeds Tykes, and Nottingham. We revisit iconic moments such as:

  • Leicester Tigers dominance (1998–2003) – four consecutive league titles and back‑to‑back Heineken Cup wins.
  • Historic kicks – including his legendary 60m penalty against Llanelli and the 2001 Heineken Cup Final conversion.
  • England & Lions career – the highs of Six Nations battles and the heartbreak of missing the 2003 World Cup squad.
  • Life after rugby – coaching, business ventures in renewable energy, and delivering EV charging solutions at stadiums.

This episode closes out 2025 with reflections on sport, business, and resilience, plus a festive message for Christmas and New Year 2026.
