Zidane in the 2006 World Cup Final
Hi, I have a little curiosity. Can somebody please take this off? In case of France's victory in the 2006 World Cup, would Zidane have been able to officially show the Cup in public when he returned to his homeland? Because the captain was actually him, and not Barthez; the latter, yes, would have raised it on the field always in case of victory. It's a bit of a frivolous curiosity, I admit, but it all fits together and I think it finally makes some sense, why not? Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.41.100.198 (talk) 13:58, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Why not? He was only sent off from the game on a red card, not sent to jail. I expect he would have paraded on the field as well had France won the game. Xuxl (talk) 16:27, 18 July 2020 (UTC)

Enjoying the sunshine in London this morning, while walking by Regent's Park I noticed that the street signs bore the legend "C.E." followed by a crown followed by "P.C." where the name of the borough usually appears. "C.E. is obviously "Crown Estates", but what is "P.C."? 81.139.208.28 (talk) 15:57, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I think the initials must be for the Crown Estate Paving Commission. There's an example of one such sign here. AndrewWTaylor (talk) 16:18, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
