England win the Grand Slam

And there was you thinking it was some other team...

Needless to say this is the Women's Six Nations, rather than the other one. In practice England did seem to make hard going of it - beating Ireland only 17-7 (comfortably their closest result since the World Cup) to win the title, and moreover they managed to conceed three tries this season (compared to one in 2007). Still, three Grand Slams in succession is a first (since the championship expanded anyway) though I am not holding my breath about the average rugby journalist noticing. Ireland finished 4th, by the way, with France 3rd and Wales 2nd. More info here.
