Ludlam also opens up about the politics of race, how England's squad is breaking down class barriers in the sport and where he gets his resilience from.You will also hear contributions from teammates Ben Youngs, Raffi Quirke and Mark Atkinson as well as Lewis' dad Aaron and his former rugby coach Mark Patterson.
