It's unlikely that a Corot-Exo-7beebian would be able to get tickets for the Ashes, since this involves signing up, at a cost, to be a member of the Twelth Man supporters club, to even have the opportunity to purchase tickets for England matches. It was enough to put me off, so I'll make do with the TV. Any extra-terrestials are obviously welcome to join me.
