Man it's hard not to love the English team after watching these diaries. So good.

Swanneh though, wafg!

His crack about Mushy's beard being sponsored by Adidas, with the three grey stripes, made me laugh so much !!!

Hahaha I just watched part 7. LOL @ Swann paying out Channel 10's editing, and showing them how continuity in editing should be done.

Jimmeh btw, wag!

Haha yeah I laughed when he held his fingers up

The bit where Anderson swaps with him for a moment is gold.

The pair of them together are absolute gold, so many funny moments in diary 4. Jimmy mincing about in a towel and the bit where he rebukes Swann's accusation of having a boring diary in South Africa with a deadpan "there's nothing wrong with being interesting and informative" is gold.

Diary 5 where Swanny is searching for a replacement sidekick for Jimmeh is pretty funny. Particularly when he sneaks up on Finn doing his new hair in the toilet.

I think the most I got out of this Diary is just how funny Jimmy is. I always knew Swanny was hilarious, but throughout Jimmy was fantastic.

Loved it to bits. Such a fantastic idea to do this. The best thing about the internet is the connection to the fans. Great marketing for the team, the Ashes, ECB and the game in general.

That's great! Some new little nuggets in there.

The only sad thing is it seems that there will be no more.

When I think of you (I smile Neon Light) by the Sunbeat Revival

... as you would know if you followed Swanny on Twitter.
