England were beaten 25-13 by a resurgent Scotland side to lose to Calcutta cup for the first time in 10 years.
It's only Eddie Jones' second loss as England head coach in 26 matches and ended the chances of a second grand slam.

The defeat, after Ireland picked up a bonus-point win over Wales has also seriously damaged the chances of England defending their six nations title after their back-to-back wins in the past two years.
Scottish centre Huw Jones scored two tries with Sean Maitland also scoring. Greig Laidlaw and Finn Russell shared the kicked points as the Scots shocked a strong English side.
Owen Farrell kicked all his side's points as well as getting himself a try, just after half-time when England threatened to hit back.
But the fightback never came, Scotland held together and barely gave their opponents another chance.
