Week 5 results:
Wales 21-24 Italy
Ireland 17-13 Scotland
France 33-31 England
Ireland win their second championship in a row after seeing off a stubborn Scotland in Dublin. It is Ireland's 6th Six Nations title, putting them tied for 2nd for most wins alongside France and Wales and one behind leaders England.
France finish 2nd after a last minute penalty saw them win a back-and-forth encounter with England.
Italy beat Wales in Cardiff to condemn Warren Gatland's side to their first wooden spoon since 2003. It's the first time Italy have won two Six Nations matches in the same championship since 2013 and the first time ever that they've only lost two games. Wales' George North was playing his final international but was forced to limp off before the end of the game. Warren Gatland offered his resignation after the game but this was rejected by Welsh rugby chief Abi Tierney.
