"The fruits of (English) victory will be like Ashes in their mouths..."

A very good start to the week:
England took a 1-0 lead in the Ashes series and ended a 75-year wait for a win against Australia at Lord's as they wrapped up a 115-run win before lunch on the final day of the second Test.

Andrew Flintoff, in his final Test appearance at the famous old ground, defied his injuries to take three of the five wickets England needed in an extraordinary 10-over spell to finish with 3-43 on the day and 5-92 in the innings.

And with apologies to a certain Norwegian commentator:
Sandra White!
Bill Wilson!
Roseanna Cunningham!
And not forgetting... Christine Graham!

You boys and girls have taken one helluva of a beating!
You boys and girls have taken one helluva beating!"
This week's telly ratings for Scotland will be interesting as well...
