Season 4, Ep 4: It was a warm night in Perth when we left the WACA after its final Test match saw Australia win the Ashes, and we went to interview Vic Marks. The all-rounder actually played there for a couple of seasons in the 1980s, as a rare overseas pro for Western Australia. But he is most known for his career with England, and his extensive post-playing career as a newspaper correspondent, radio broadcaster, and endless source of self-deprecation. This season was produced for The Guardian.
