It was a sporting contest that will live long in the memory of cricket fans around the world. "Hidden Ashes" captures every highlight of the monumental test match battle between England and Australia from 2005.
There is perhaps no greater rivalry in sport than that of the England and Australia cricket teams. Dating back over a century, contests between the two nations are always fiercely competitive, filled with explosive action and invariably controversial. The 2005 series contained all of that and more as England secured a tantalizing victory over the old enemy. This DVD recaptures all the glory and despair with loads of previously unseen footage.
Utilising over 150 hours of Channel 4's unique coverage with the aid of ten different cameras, this is a truly fantastic, totally unique souvenir DVD of the most memorable Ashes Series ever. With extraordinary close-ups, demonstrating all the raw emotion and angst etched on the players' faces, this really is spine-tingling stuff. The slow motion images are amazing and to witness what was a classic cricketing confrontation in such an alternative, dynamic way is hugely enjoyable. So sit back, relax and re-live all the magic and splendour again, as Andrew 'Freddie' Flintoff, Kevin Pietersen and Michael Vaughan take care of Ricky Ponting, Shane Warne and Glenn McGrath in a nail-biting extravaganza, the likes of which we may not see again for some time.
Memories do not come much better than this. "Hidden Ashes" is an absolute gem of a DVD that celebrates England's remarkable test series win against Australia as seen from a whole new angle.
