England moved to within one win of a first Grand Slam in 13 years as they withstood an extraordinary late Wales rally at Twickenham.
The hosts led 25-7 with eight minutes to go, but late tries by George North and Taulupe Faletau put the home crowd through a nervy grandstand finish.
Anthony Watson had scored the only try in a first half the hosts dominated.
But Wales fly-half Dan Biggar charged down a kick to score and kick-start Wales' display after the break.
