The Ashes remains one of cricket's most celebrated rivalries. This fiercely contested test series has a history of duels and battles that live long in the memory. Among those stars from England and Australia recalling their favourite stories and dramatic moments from the crease are Ian Botham, Merv Hughes, Darren Gough, Mike Gatting, Graham Gooch, Alec Stewart, Derek Pringle, Gladstone Small, Jack Russell, John Emburey, Angus Fraser and Derek Underwood. Hilarious, embarrassing and memorable, this is a special recording which captures the passion and pride of this legendary series. It features many new interviews specially recorded for this edition, introduced and linked by Jonathan 'Aggers' Agnew. '...goes down as nicely as one of the endless fruit cakes that listeners make for the Radio 4 commentators' - South Wales Argus.
