Find below links to highlights from each day of the legendary 2005 Ashes Series on The Slam YouTube channel as well as a growing number of other excellent cricketing footage, which we hope will keep you amused during this period of isolation and social distancing.
The only thing we'd ask is that this catalogue is kept within The Slam family, so please don't advertise it outside of your team and especially not on social media.
Hopefully this will help chew up a few hours for you in these unprecedented times.

The 2005 ashes - HIDDEN ASHES (COMING SOON)
When Sunset+Vine produced the historic 2005 England/Australia Ashes series for Channel 4 they recorded every ball from ten different angles. There were literally ten versions of every four, every six and every wicket, only a handful of which were seen on the Live Channel 4 transmission, mostly as slow-motion replays. There were also many images recorded that were never seen at all on C4.
Now, Hidden Ashes brings you the story of the series from the very best of more than 150 hours of footage from the ten cameras. The result is the most dramatic look yet at those five extraordinary cricket matches.

FROM The ashes
The uplifting and remarkable tale of a summer that changed England forever. July 1981, rioting and discontent rule the streets of Britain.
Meanwhile, on the playing fields, England are 1-0 down after two tests against the old enemy, Australia; and Ian Botham, their iconic all-rounder, has resigned as English captain, moments before being pushed.

Fire in Babylon
Fire In Babylon is the breathtaking tale of how the oppressed people of the West Indies fought back and triumphed over its colonial masters, through the remarkable achievements of one of sports most iconic teams.
In a turbulent era of apartheid in South Africa; race riots in England and civil unrest in the Carribean, the West Indian cricketers, led by the enigmatic Viv Richards, struck a wonderfully defiant blow at the forces of white prejudice worldwide.
Their undisputed skill, combined with a fearless spirit, allowed them to dominate the game at the highest level, replaying it on their own, terrifying, terms. This is their story.
