Rugby World Cup 100 Days countdown marked in Exeter

Prince Harry has helped mark 100 days to go until the start of the rugby union World Cup in England and Wales.

The event trophy is to be taken on a tour around the UK and Ireland in the build-up to the tournament.

Harry handed it over outside Twickenham Stadium.

Meanwhile here in Exeter, the 100 day countdown was marked with an event in Northernhay Gardens this afternoon.

As part of the international tournament, three matches will be played at Sandy Park and Matt Evans from Active Devon says the world cup coming to Exeter could have an impact on local people's health by encouraging them to try new sports.
