Somerset's award winning cricket museum was used by Sky Sports to host a programme entitled 'Winning the Ashes' which will feature Marcus Trescothick and Justin Langer who were two of the main players in the epic 2005 Ashes series, which was won by England.
 
Sky Sports cricket presenters Michael Atherton and Chris Broad were joined at the Somerset Cricket Museum by the two Somerset players to talk about the forthcoming Ashes series which gets underway in July at the Swalec Stadium in Cardiff.
 
Sky producer Rob Noonan said: "We wanted to tap into some great Ashes talent and obviously Somerset have got Marcus Trescothick and Justin Langer here at the club, two guys who played in the 2005 series, which goes down in history as one of the greatest ever."
 
The Sky producer went on: "The Somerset Cricket Museum is a fantastic location and Peter Yates the curator has been fantastic and very welcoming. The library area upstairs has got some fantastic timber and is just right for want we want."
 
The programme that was recorded was screened by Sky during the Test match hosted by Durham CCC.
