Interesting and entertaining documentary
grantss27 August 2019
Good coverage of the ultimate sport's ultimate rivalry and series. Contains interviews with a host of big names from the cricket world, giving an eye-witness account of some great games and moments in cricket. Quite illuminating, while the interviewees are allowed to relax and express themselves, so is quite entertaining (and colourful in terms of language!).

This informality does have a downside: some interviewees end up being overly dramatic and hyperbolic. Justin Langer was particularly cringeworthy.

Overall, a must-see for anyone who is a fan of cricket.

Superb

Captures the passion and rivalry brilliantly. England's supposedly more polite players shoot from the hip in entertaining fashion, even Andrew Strauss! Classic stories, funny, poignant and moving. There's nothing like The Ashes!

Peter Dickson you have made a masterpiece. Captures the raw passion, history, rivalry and everything in between that represents Ashes Cricket. The player interviews bring it to life. Have not laughed so much for a long time. Please make more.

Not THE Forged In Fire

Could have been titled better. Very let down when I watched this without context. Seems fine if your a sports fan I suppose.
