Ian Constantine3-0 The Urn is Ours!

As The West Australian reports Australia has regained the Ashes after defeating England by 206 runs in the 3rd test at the WACA.
The wins means that England only held the Ashes for 15 months, the shortest reign in history.
This has been the most anticipated cricket series for a long time, however the last two tests will now be "dead rubbers", but does that mean interest in the series will wane?
I don't think so, only once - in 1920/21 has Australia won an Ashes series 5-0, Australia has now also won 10 tests in a row and could be heading towards an all time record winning streak. Add to this Shane Warne on 699 wickets heading to his home ground for the Boxing Day Test, there should be as must interest as the last two tests as the first three.
