"Good to hear filming of the new Dr Who ground to a halt yesterday, when Scots star David Tennant and others demanded to watch the cricket instead."
This blurb was in reference to The Ashes final played on September 12, 2005, England v. Australia. England was victorious, winning an historic victory and bringing the Ashes back home to England.

The victorious England Cricket Team, fresh from
their THE ASHES Test Series against the Australians, paraded through the streets
of London on the 13th.
At one point, Wicketkeeper, Geriant Jones, caught
a flying and inflatable Dalek, as it announced "Aussies exterminated".
