About this episode
All roads lead back to the 1909 Ashes on Story Time of late, and why wouldn’t we want to visit again via Charlie McCartney’s tweak? That man is still firing 12 years later, a series that included a Dusty Old Bastard with a tough old name. Also featured: Curtly, Finny and a cheesemonger from Baltimore. Stick around to hear from one of our Final Word faves, Vic Marks. His Calling the Shots contribution focused on ins and outs of Test Match Special, the most famous comm box cricket has known.
