Football icon, for once appropriate

All the best adverts recently have been to do with football. My favourite has to be the Turkish Airlines one with the Manchester United players.

"Favorite DOA scene" (Watch on YouTube)

Yes, that is Bobby Charlton. And yes, that is Edwin van der Saar being brilliant.

( The other two are the Korea 2022 advert and the Qatar 2022 advert )

Of the two, I think I'd rather see it go to Qatar (while understanding that there are heat-related issues), just because they've never hosted it before, and why yes, the Zidane thing does bias me towards them.

Day 5 - Favorite love story in a film

Most of the films I really like aren't love stories, or if it is a love story, that's very much a background element to the rest of it. I tend to like my romances to feature derrer-doing (for example The Princess Bride or Stardust) or a certainly level of bull-headed tempestuousness from both parties (our example here can be The Quiet Man).
