    Should be interesting to see how Allegri plays it tonight - will he be tempted to try and do to Barca what Mourinho's Inter did a couple of years back? Whatever happens, I hope for Milan's sake that Boateng is playing and Mesbah isn't. Despite his apparently decent showings in Serie A, Mesbah was tortured by Theo Walcott in the near-disastrous collapse at the Emirates and appeared incapable of making a tackle. Conversely, Boateng seems a peripheral figure in league games, but the difference he makes against the big boys is there for all to see. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the game - not least as a distraction from last night's FA Cup quarter final replay, which I believe can be summed up in a single picture...

    Wow! If Michael Oliver keeps playing like this for Man Utd, Howard Webb will be lucky to get back in the team.
  8. Nice to meet you!

    Thread cleaned. Please guys, cut out bashing, baiting, flaming etc. Let's keep it civil from now on.
  14. *Cough* Heroes That first season was about a perfect piece of television as you can get - proper character arcs with a cohesive and (as far as such things go) conclusive storyline. A spotless evocation of a comic book. Then... Oh goodness yes. The first season was virtually flawless - after that, it was all such a mess.
  15. This is the part where I admit to watching too much TV. Drama: 24 Mad Men Fringe Dexter (all the ones that have aired in the UK, anyway) Merlin Modern-day Doctor Who Sherlock Criminal Minds Bones Comedy: Various Alan Partridges Red Dwarf Flight of the Conchords The Mighty Boosh The IT Crowd Bored to Death Father Ted The Big Bang Theory Friends (not because I ever made a point of watching them all, it's simply impossible to avoid the endless reruns) I'm also currently nearing the end of Six Feet Under, having worked my through all but the last three episodes.

    Rachel Annabelle Riley (born 11 January 1986 in Rochford, Essex) is an English television presenter. Since 12 January 2009 she has been the co-host of Countdown, at which time she replaced Carol Vorderman. Nick Hewer is the chief presenter and Riley does the letters and numbers. Early life and career Riley was educated at Southend High School for Girls and went on to study mathematics at Oriel College, Oxford, gaining an upper second-class honours degree, having obtained four grade As at A-Level. After graduating, Riley began work as a data analyst for a website company in London. She was encouraged to apply for the Countdown position by her mother. She did not have an ambition to be a television presenter, but decided to apply because she was interested in the numbers part of the game. Riley was chosen from more than a thousand applicants despite having no television experience. In an article for the BBC news, she stated, "There's only one cool maths job around and I was lucky enough to get it so I'm absolutely thrilled". She began presenting Countdown alongside Jeff Stelling from 12 January 2009. In an interview in August 2009 she revealed that it had been difficult for her to step into Vorderman's shoes, and that she had even been criticised by certain Countdown viewers for getting some of the maths puzzles wrong. On 26 June 2009, it was reported that Riley had been recruited by the Post Office to employ her mathematical skills to help advise holidaymakers on how to make the most of their holiday currency, after a report by the Post Office revealed that a significant number of holidaymakers fail to calculate the actual cost of goods and services when travelling abroad and often overspend their holiday budgets. Riley also appeared on an episode of series 4 of the Channel 4 sitcom The IT Crowd as herself. Personal life Riley is a keen supporter of Manchester United and has been attending games at Old Trafford often with her Salford-born father since about the age of 10, and in October 2010 she presented a programme on MUTV featuring a tour of United's training ground at Carrington. On 4 January 2012 she took part in Celebrity Mastermind, with her topic of choice being Manchester United from 1999. On 16 March 2012 she won the celebrity edition of The Bank Job. Riley describes herself as a "non-religious Jew". In 2009 Riley was ranked #95 in FHM's 100 Sexiest Women poll, and again in 2011, ranked #84.
