2007 highlight: Helping England to Rugby World Cup final.

England's kicking king returned from a personal injury nightmare to help revive his team.

Wilkinson's Six Nations return in February was his first international action for more than 1,000 days.

It was the springboard for a tough campaign as England defended the Rugby World Cup.

He was a key figure in the wins over Australia and France, before defeat to South Africa in the final.
