title: The Next Day

text: "You Feel So Lonely You Could Die" contains noticeable references to "Ziggy Stardust", utilising the drum beat of "Five Years" in the outro, the guitar figure of "Rock 'n' Roll Suicide" throughout and even the vocal arrangement from "The Man Who Sold the World" "The Supermen" (1970). In "Consequence of Sound", Cat Blackard commented: "This is more than a head-nod to some of his most famous work – the song itself is a likely suspect as a follow-up, or perhaps prelude to that story. The lyrics easily fit into "Ziggy" future world of indifferent, over-indulged youths, five years before humanity's end." The title is a near-verbatim quotation from Elvis Presley's "Heartbreak Hotel" (1956), while the song itself is a waltz ballad with a vibrant soul-rock arrangement. Regarding the lyrics, Visconti stated, "it sounds like a love song, [but it is actually] about Russian history, from the time of the Cold War and espionage, and about an ugly demise." "Heat" is a quieter mood piece musically reminiscent of "Outside" "The Motel" and the late 1970s works of Scott Walker, whom Bowie noted as an influence multiple times after 1979. Pegg describes the track as "a profoundly imagined, superbly controlled piece of work which gathers up the distilled loneliness, self-doubt and existential anxiety of fifty years of songwriting, and boils them away on a slow, relentless simmer." Alongside lyrical references to author Yukio Mishima, Pays says the lyrics are connected to spiritual uncertainty.


title: The Next Day

text: "God Bless the Girl" was intended to be on the album, but released as a bonus track on the Japanese release. Described by O'Leary as "The Next Day" edition of "Young Americans" (1975) and "Underground" (1986), the music builds throughout its runtime and combines an acoustic Bo Diddley riff with electric ambient guitar out of "Heathen". The lyrics describe a girl named Jackie who was "aiming for the stars but landed on the clouds" and has ran out of options. "So She" is a up-tempo 1960s-inspired pop song that contains references to Bowie's past material, from the beat of "Reality" "Days", the ambient guitars and layered vocal harmonies of "Hours" and a slide guitar from that album's single "Seven" (1999). According to Visconti, it is "a wistfully sung love song. It kind of makes me feel romantically sad. Harmonically it is quite sophisticated for such a short piece." "Plan" is the first instrumental on a Bowie album since "Brilliant Adventure" from "Hours". The music is reminiscent of the ambient tracks from "Low" and ""Heroes"", giving what Pegg calls a "sinister and hypnotic" effect. "I'll Take You There" is the second of two Bowie–Leonard penned tracks from the sessions. The song is a driving rocker that recalls Bowie's 1980s works, from the guitar stylings of "Ashes to Ashes" to the "thrashier numbers" on "Never Let Me Down" and "Tin Machine". Meanwhile, its direct lyrics follows the hopes and dreams of two refugees who aspire to start anew in the United States.


title: The Next Day

text: "Atomica" was unfinished by the album's released; its lead vocal was not recorded until 26August 2013. Visconti commented: "Some songs, like 'Atomica', needed more work and were assigned to the back burner for future releases." Similar to the album's title track, the song features a guitar-heavy sound with, in Pegg's words, a "bass-slapping post-glam groove" that recalls the 1988 re-recording of "Look Back in Anger" (1979). Musically, "The Informer" is driven by a funky beat against, in Pegg's words, "an intricate sound-sculpture" of layered instruments that he compares to the "Scary Monsters" track "Teenage Wildlife" (1980). The lyrics are in debt to Martin McDonagh's dark comedy "In Bruges" (2008), in which a narrator admits to committing an unspecified tragedy that led to a violent death, but his true identity, whether a police informant or contract killer, is unclear. The title of "Like a Rocket Man" recalls Elton John's "Rocket Man" (1972). Described by O'Leary as "catchy [and] subversive", the lyrics concern a girl addicted to cocaine, amidst themes that echo Bowie's mindset during his "Station to Station" period. Pegg analyses it as Bowie poking fun at his younger self. "Born in a UFO" was developed from an unreleased track recorded during the "Lodger" sessions, musically resembling late-1970s new wave, particularly other "Lodger" tracks like "Red Sails" and "D.J.", and early Elvis Costello and Talking Heads. It lyrically delves into the world of a science fiction B-movie of the 1950s. Pegg and O'Leary recognise the track as a tribute to Bruce Springsteen, with its title referencing "Born in the U.S.A." (1984) and its verse melody mirroring "Prove It All Night" (1978).


title: The Next Day

text: The album's cover art is an adapted version of the ""Heroes"" cover. It consists of a white square with the album's title in austere black Doctrine font, obscuring Bowie's face, and a line drawn across the original album's title. It was designed in September 2012 by graphic artist Jonathan Barnbrook, who previously designed the typography for "Heathen" and co-designed the "Reality" artwork. Barnbrook told the "NME" that the design underwent many changes; "the starting point was an image he had of this concert he did at Radio City. He was telling me about how isolated he felt at that time, and that was the basis of the feeling he wanted." The image, depicting a stick-thin Bowie leaning at a 45-degree angle gripping microphone stand, was flipped upside down and used as the download image for the "Where Are We Now?" single. On the decision to use the ""Heroes"" cover, Barnbrook commented:


title: The Next Day

text: When Visconti first saw the cover, he assumed it was a joke conceived by a fan. Describing the cover in his book "Ashes to Ashes", O'Leary argues that it signifies "the day "after" being heroes". Barnbrook released several abandoned designs for the 2013 "David Bowie Is" exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Alongside the image used for the "Where Are We Now?" single, other rejected designs included the "Aladdin Sane" cover defaced with red paintbrush strokes and the "Pin Ups" (1973) cover with black circles obscuring Bowie and Twiggy's faces. According to Pegg, another rejected design departed from the obscured theme and instead depicted the album's title against "a riot of op-art monochrome patterns" in the style of Bridget Riley.


title: The Next Day

text: By the time "The Next Day" was being recorded, journalists and biographers were speculating that Bowie had retired. In "The Complete David Bowie", Pegg states how, for Bowie, keeping the album secret provided an unbothered work environment, so he was able to work in peace and retain full control of the project's direction and outcome. Additionally, Pegg assesses that since the release of "Reality", the rise of social media and smartphones enacted a new age that embraced spoilers and leaks, making it increasingly difficult to keep things completely secret. So, Bowie wanted to "maintain a total information blackout" until he was ready to announce. Radiohead had achieved a similar scenario with their 2007 album "In Rainbows", although Pegg comments that, unlike "The Next Day", it was widely known they were recording at the time. Sony Music president Rob Stringer did not learn of the project's existence until October 2012, when he was invited to hear a few tracks.


title: The Next Day

text: Late in 2012, Bowie decided to surprise release "Where Are We Now?" as the opening single on 8January 2013, his 66th birthday, with no prior announcement. To accompany the release, Bowie enlisted Tony Oursler, whom he previously worked with on the Earthling Tour and the music video for "Little Wonder" (1997), to create a video for "Where Are We Now?" that reflected the song's introspective mood. In the video, Bowie's head appears video-projected alongside Oursler's wife Jaqueline Humphries's on two animal puppets, while the lyrics appear over grainy footage of Berlin. Alan Edwards, who was in charge of Bowie's PR in the UK for years, learned of the single only four days in advance. With little time to plan, Edwards informed some of his most trusted journalist colleagues to run headlines on the morning of release to appear as though there had been no pre-planning. The video was uploaded to YouTube in the early hours of the morning, with his website announcing that listeners could buy the single on iTunes and pre-order "The Next Day". Within a couple of hours, Bowie made headlines around the world. The single peaked at number six on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Bowie's highest-charting single since 1985's "Absolute Beginners". However, the single's melancholic sound did little to indicate the album's overall sound.


title: The Next Day

text: A viral marketing campaign was launched to promote "The Next Day" on 15February 2013, which grew out of the concept behind the album cover, taking seemingly ordinary images and subverting them through the addition of a white square. "The Stars (Are Out Tonight)" was released as the second single on 26 February 2013. A music video in the form of a short film was premiered the previous day, featuring Bowie and actress Tilda Swinton. It peaked at number 102 in Britain, which O'Leary attributed to excitement winding down after the first single. Two days later, the album was streamed in its entirety on iTunes. Through his own ISO Records label, and in association with Columbia, "The Next Day" was released over several dates in different regions: 8March in Australia, New Zealand and several European countries; 11March in the UK and other territories; 12March in North America; and 13March in Japan. Similar to the artist's two previous albums, "The Next Day" was released in both standard and deluxe editions on CD, with the latter featuring the bonus tracks "So She", "Plan", and "I'll Take You There". The double-LP edition included both the bonus tracks and the single deluxe CD, while the Japanese CD included the bonus track "God Bless the Girl".


title: The Next Day

text: On 4November 2013, all four bonus tracks, plus an additional four previously unreleased tracks and new remixes of "Love Is Lost" and "I'd Rather Be High", were released as "The Next Day Extra", alongside a DVD containing the music videos of the first four singles. The four previously unreleased songs on "Extra" were left unfinished by the time the original sessions concluded, with additional work carried out in August 2013. Visconti stated: "Most of the lyrics were completed[...] but David added some extra lyrics and sang some new vocals.[...] The new versions were then completely fleshed out and freshly mixed for the new release." Of the 29 songs spooled for "The Next Day", 22 saw official release in 2013. According to Visconti, the remaining seven tracks were all discarded by the time Bowie began recording his final album "Blackstar" (2016). He told Pegg in 2016 that only one of the tracks had a working title, "Chump", while the rest were identified with numbers related to Bowie's notes.


title: The Next Day

text: "The Next Day" debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, selling 94,048 copies in its first week. It was Bowie's ninth number-one album in the United Kingdom, and his first in twenty years since "Black Tie White Noise" (1993). The album fell to number two the following week, selling 35,671 copies. In its third week, it slipped to number three on sales of 23,157 units. In the United States, the album entered the "Billboard" 200 at number two with first-week sales of 85,000 copies, earning Bowie his largest sales week for an album in the Nielsen SoundScan era. It debuted behind Bon Jovi's "What About Now" and became Bowie's best US chart placement yet, beating "Station to Station" number three position. "The Next Day" has sold 208,000 copies in the US as of December 2015.


title: The Next Day

text: Elsewhere, "The Next Day" topped the charts in several countries, including Belgium, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Sweden and Switzerland, while reaching number two in Australia, Austria, Canada, France, Italy, and Spain. It also peaked at number five in Greece, Hungary and Japan, number 13 in Mexico, and number 55 in South Korea.


title: The Next Day

text: A music video for the title track was released online on 8May 2013. Featuring actor and Bowie's friend Gary Oldman as a debauched priest, the video challenged Christian teachings and caused short-term outrage related to its themes and messages. Pegg states that in addition to its religious commentary, the video is "yet another dire warning not to place our faith in the hands of ideologues, of prophets, of messiahs, of people who begin by giving you everything that you want." On 17June, "The Next Day" was released as a 7" single on square white vinyl.


title: The Next Day

text: "Valentine's Day" was released as the album's fourth single on 19August 2013 as a limited 7" vinyl picture disc. Its accompanying music video provides commentary on gun control in the United States. "Love Is Lost" was remixed by LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy in mid-2013. The full ten-minute remix debuted on 10October on Shaun Keaveny's BBC Music6 show and subsequently appeared on "The Next Day Extra", while a four-minute edit was unveiled at the Mercury Prize ceremony on 30October; "The Next Day" was nominated but lost to James Blake's "Overgrown". An accompanying video, directed by Bowie himself, debuted the following day and only cost $12.99. Bowie also appeared in a Louis Vuitton ad with model Arizona Muse where he played a harpsichord and sang "I'd Rather Be High".


title: The Next Day

text: In contrast to the heavy promotion for both "Heathen" and "Reality", Bowie did not conduct interviews and or play live for "The Next Day", with the only promotion being the music videos, occasional photoshoots and the list of words sent to Moody. Visconti, who became Bowie's "voice" throughout the year and gave numerous interviews about the album, told the "Times" in January 2013 that Bowie would "never do another interview again". Regarding the media silence, Leonard commented the same year that he was solely using the album, artwork and videos themselves as artistic statements, rather than "getting on the phone with everybody and setting it up with all kinds of chatter", concluding that "I really think it's just part of his aesthetic right now". "The Next Day" was nominated for Best Rock Album at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards in 2014, while "The Stars (Are Out Tonight)" was nominated for Best Rock Performance.


title: The Next Day

text: "The Next Day" received acclaim from music critics, and was hailed as Bowie's strongest album in decades. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews and ratings from mainstream critics, the album has received a metascore of 81, based on 44 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim". Several deemed it a return to form and successful comeback, while in "The Independent", Andy Gill hailed it as the best comeback in rock history, and one that maintains Bowie's quality of work. Critics deemed it the artist's best and most rewarding work since "Scary Monsters" and "Outside". In "The New York Times", Simon Reynolds addressed it as Bowie's "twilight masterpiece", while David Chui of CBS News went as far as calling it his strongest work yet. "Mojo" Mark Paytress judged it the artist's "most impassioned and convincing work in decades".


title: The Next Day

text: Critics declared "The Next Day" a dark, bold and creative release for Bowie. In "The Guardian", Petridis called it "thought-provoking, strange and filled with great songs". Chris Roberts of "The Quietus" deemed over half of the record "fantastic" and the rest "very, very strong". In "Q" magazine, Andrew Harrison applauded "a loud, thrilling, steamrollingly confident rock and roll album full of noise, energy, and words that – if as cryptic as ever they were – sound like they desperately need to be sung." Meanwhile, "Time Out" Oliver Keen welcomed "The Next Day" as an "intelligent, memorable and even a little provocative" addition to Bowie's discography.


title: The Next Day

text: Several highlighted the ensemble's performances. "The A.V. Club" Jason Heller welcomed the return of Bowie's voice: "rich, delicate, smoky, wise. And, yes, shaded with the first expectant blush of mortality." In "Uncut", Cavanagh found his singing authoritative and particularly appreciated his usage of a wide assortment of voices flawlessly. "Paste" Douglas Heselgrave also commended Bowie's genuine engagement in the songs, arguing that it is "as if he has rediscovered the joy and satisfaction of writing and performing challenging music."


title: The Next Day

text: Many critics recognised the album's acknowledgement and embracement of the artist's past to create a modernised sound. In the "NME", Emily Mackay said that "Above all, this album is about songcraft. Rather than reinventing Bowie, it absorbs his past and moves it on, hungry for more." "Billboard" Phil Gallo wrote that Bowie and Visconti "have struck gold in creating a work that is modern and well-connected to the artist's fabled sonic-past." Drawing comparisons to his previous works, Edna Gundersen of "USA Today" wrote: "The glitter rock, plastic soul and electronica albums of the '70s stand among Bowie's tallest achievements, and the elegance, urgency and versatility of his 2013 return provide powerful proof that pop music's craftiest chameleon has lost none of his sound vision." Several found the songs densely packed with puzzles that make repeating and rewarding listens for fans. "Record Collector" Jason Draper, in his four-out-of-five star review, summarised "The Next Day" as "an album that's only ever going to reveal itself fully as time goes on".


title: The Next Day

text: Despite its acclaim, a number of critics felt it was overlong. One of the few negative UK reviews was in "The Wire", where Mark Fisher called "The Next Day" an album of "quotidian mediocrity" that was undeserving of its wide acclaim and the "wave of hyperbole it generated point[ed] to a wider malaise in contemporary music" because it proved that anything of low artistic merit could achieve success via "artfully timed PR". Although he found it the artist's most "substantial" album since "Let's Dance", Michael Gallucci of "Ultimate Classic Rock" found the album lacked direction and focus in some tracks. "Spin" magazine's Alfred Soto criticised "The Next Day" as "an album that didn't need to be made", arguing the collision of different ideas resulted in "colorless abstractions" such as "Where Are We Now?" and "You Feel So Lonely You Could Die". He also criticised the artist for taking a long hiatus, only to return with an album that sounded like its predecessor. A few also deemed it inferior to his 1970s works.


title: The Next Day

text: Some reviewers felt "The Next Day" lacked in innovation. Cavanaugh found its middle section subpar, but highlighted the lyrics, aggression and intelligence throughout. "Pitchfork" Ryan Dombal found the music bounces from style to style, "casually suggesting past greatness while rarely matching it". Despite these criticisms, Marchese stated the album enjoys repeated listens, while "Slate" Geeta Dayal argued that it serves as a reminder that Bowie is "still working to refine his vision". Jim Beviglia of "American Songwriter" concluded that "The Next Day" "proves that Bowie... is back, invigorating his listeners even as he stupefies them." "The Next Day" placed on lists ranking the best albums of 2013 by "The A.V. Club" (10), "Consequence of Sound" (40), "The Guardian" (20), "NME" (10), "PopMatters" (47), "Rolling Stone" (16) and "Uncut" (2).


title: The Next Day

text: The media frenzy surrounding Bowie lasted throughout 2013. Regarding the artist's legacy in the build up to "The Next Day" release, Chui stated: "Even before "The Next Day", Bowie's legacy remained much intact and he had nothing really more to prove. But Bowie is simply not another artist who rests on his past laurels. He remains a restless and creative spirit who always looks ahead and not back, as "The Next Day" indicates.[...] If any lesson is to be learned from Bowie's return, it's that you could never truly count the man out." Petridis hoped Bowie would continue making records, as "listening to a new album by most of his peers makes you wish they'd stick to playing the greatest hits." Bowie's first project following "The Next Day" was the experimental jazz track "Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)", recorded in collaboration with bandleader Maria Schneider, and released on the compilation album "Nothing Has Changed" in 2014. Diagnosed with liver cancer the same year, he recorded his final album, "Blackstar", while suffering from the disease. According to Visconti, "Blackstar" was the artist's "parting gift" for his fans before his death on 10January 2016, two days after its release.


title: The Next Day

text: "The Next Day" was among the first surprise albums of the 2010s. According to Pegg, the surprise release of "Where Are We Now?" was the first of its kind by a major artist and was utilised by artists such as Beyoncé for her albums "Beyoncé" (2013) and "Lemonade" (2016). Summarising the significance of the release, Pegg writes:


title: The Next Day

text: In "The Complete David Bowie", Pegg praises the album's diverse moods, from the nostalgia of "Where Are We Now?" to the force of the title track. He primarily agrees with critics in praising the performances, particularly Bowie's, and Visconti's production, but likewise finds the album overlong and drags in its middle section, which he attributes to the "sheer quantity" of the tracks. Nevertheless, he argues that "if the only charge to be levelled against "The Next Day" is that it offers a surfeit of riches, then there's nothing much amiss". O'Leary also agrees that the album is overlong, commenting that Bowie could have easily made it a triple album during the analog age, but as it stands in the streaming era, "The Next Day" is "a fluctuating set of tracks whose sequence and length depends on the listener's mood and patience."


title: The Next Day

text: In 2016, Bryan Wawzenek of "Ultimate Classic Rock" placed "The Next Day" at number 13 out of 26 in a list ranking Bowie's studio albums from worst to best, finding "strong songwriting" amidst non-innovative but overall enjoyable music. Including Bowie's two albums with Tin Machine, "Consequence of Sound" ranked "The Next Day" number 11 out of 28 in a 2018 list, with Pat Levy calling it "a late in the game home run for Bowie" and vastly superior to its predecessor "Reality". The album was included in the 2014 revised edition of Robert Dimery's book "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die".


title: The Next Day

text: In addition to the physical release there is a 7-track digital EP bundle that excludes the deluxe edition bonus tracks.


title: Analyze That

text: Analyze That is a 2002 American mafia comedy film directed by Harold Ramis and produced by Paula Weinstein and Jane Rosenthal. The film is a sequel to the 1999 film "Analyze This". The film starred Robert De Niro and Billy Crystal who respectively reprise their roles as mobster Paul Vitti and psychiatrist Ben Sobel.


title: Analyze That

text: Following the success of the first film, Warner Bros. developed a follow up to the film, with much of the same cast and crew returning. "Analyze That" was released on December 6, 2002, however, did not achieve the commercial success that the first film had, grossing only $55 million worldwide against its $60 million budget.


title: Analyze That

text: Near the completion of his sentence in Sing Sing, Paul Vitti's life is threatened by assassins and corrupt guards while incarcerated. He starts singing showtunes from "West Side Story" to get the attention of Ben Sobel, who previously hung up on him while attending his father's funeral.


title: Analyze That

text: The FBI calls in Ben to perform psychiatric tests on Paul to determine if he is feigning insanity. After the tests, it appears Paul's mental state is deteriorating, and the FBI approves Paul's release for one month, into Ben's custody, for further therapy. As Ben drives Paul from prison, Paul immediately reveals that he was faking.


title: Analyze That

text: Ben talks Paul into finding a regular job as requested by the FBI. Paul attempts to find a legitimate job (he tries a car dealer, a restaurant, and a jewelry store), but his rude manners and paranoia only complicate things further. This ends up in him getting fired each time.


title: Analyze That

text: At the same time, Paul is told by "de facto" boss Patti LoPresti that the Rigazzi family wants him dead. He responds to this by telling the Rigazzis that he is "out" and seeking a new line of employment. He eventually finds employment working as a technical advisor on the set of a mafia TV series.


title: Analyze That

text: Meanwhile, FBI agents inform Ben that Paul has his former crew back together, and may be planning something major. This rouses Ben's suspicion, and he visits Paul. Both get caught up in a car chase with Rigazzi hitmen, which ends up with Paul escaping. The FBI blames Ben, and gives him 24 hours to locate Paul.


title: Analyze That

text: After locating Paul through Ben's son Michael, who is now working as Paul's chauffeur, Ben discovers Paul is planning a big armored car heist with LoPresti as a partner. He attempts to intervene and talk Paul out of it but Paul proceeds and Ben is forced to go along as well.


title: Analyze That

text: The crew ambushes the armored car with smoke grenades, and lift it over a fence in the midst of the confusion. They extract over $22 million of gold bullion, but LoPresti's thugs take over, revealing themselves to actually have been working for Rigazzi.


title: Analyze That

text: Ben, in a fit of anger, beats one of them, and Paul's men apprehend the others. They use the gold bullion to frame the Rigazzi family, leaving three Rigazzi goons locked in the armored truck suspended from the crane. This leads to the arrest of the entire Rigazzi family, and in turn, prevents a mob war.


title: Analyze That

text: Ben meets with Paul and Jelly near bridges on the New York waterfront, and they part ways again as friends, singing another "West Side Story" showtune together. During the credits, bloopers are shown.


title: Analyze That

text: Initially, there was no plan to create a sequel to "Analyze This", but the critical acclaim and box office success generated by the first film encouraged the producers to consider a sequel and discuss it with the studio and actors. They believed, as said by Crystal, that "there was an unfinished relationship between Ben Sobel and Paul Vitti from the first film" and "there was a good story to tell", so the sequel was commissioned.


title: Analyze That

text: The story of the sequel was inspired by an article in "The New York Times" about the psychotherapy used in the mafia TV show "The Sopranos". Ramis said the article "raised questions about human nature and morality...Can the criminal mind be turned?" and he became interested in what would happen if "Paul Vitti got out of jail and committed himself to going straight."


title: Analyze That

text: The production arranged for Dr. Stephen A. Sands, a psychiatrist and faculty member of Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons to be a technical adviser for the film, and he remained on set during the filming of scenes that involved psychiatric issues. Sands was very familiar with the details of mobster Vincent "The Chin" Gigante's alleged mental illness, after studying the case during his post-doctoral training. Sands also arranged for De Niro to visit Bellevue Hospital's psychiatric unit to meet patients and psychiatrists to discuss the character's symptoms, and De Niro sometimes participated in group therapy sessions during these visits.


title: Analyze That

text: Filming began in April 2002, and most of the scenes were shot in and around New York City, 7 months after the 9-11 attacks. Producer Jane Rosenthal said they decided to shoot the film there because "[i]t would have been unpatriotic not to shoot the picture in New York... As a New Yorker it was extremely important for me to get back to work and business as usual after 9-11."


title: Analyze That

text: Filming locations for Vitti's attempts at lawful employment include an Audi dealership on Park Avenue in Manhattan, a jewelry store in the Diamond District on West 47th Street, and Gallagher's Steak House on West 52nd Street. The prison scenes were filmed at the Riker's Island prison in Queens, with the prison release scene shot outside the entrance to Sing Sing Prison in Ossining, New York. The funeral for Ben's father was filmed at Riverside Memorial Chapel on Manhattan's Upper West Side, and the Sobel household scenes shot in Montclair, New Jersey. The dinner at Nogo restaurant was filmed at West 13th Street in a restaurant that had closed down, and been refurbished by the film's art department. The scenes of Patty LoPresti's home were filmed in Ho-Ho-Kus, New Jersey, and the Little Caesar set in Washington Square Park, Manhattan. Car chases were filmed on New Jersey Turnpike service roads in Kearney. The heist-planning scenes were shot in two locations: a derelict building in the meat packing district near West 14th Street, and a club called Exit on West 56th Street. The majority of the heist scenes were shot in an empty lot in West 57th Street between 11th and 12th Avenues, and below a West Side Highway underpass. While filming part of the heist sequence at the New York State 369th Regiment armory, on 145th Street and Fifth Avenue, the film set was visited by former President Bill Clinton, who was pleased the movie was being filmed in New York. The scene at a drive-through bank where the money flies before the police chase was filmed in Carlstadt, New Jersey.


title: Analyze That

text: During filming in Manhattan's Chelsea district June 14, Amanda Winklevoss, older sister to Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, died from unknown complications after climbing into a camera truck.


title: Analyze That

text: Cinematographer Ellen Kuras said that in shooting the film, the intention was to highlight the contrast between Vitti and Sobel's environments, because the film "exists in two different worlds... We wanted to evoke the contrast so we made Vitti's world cool, blue and blue-green, whereas Ben's world has a brighter, warmer palette, yellows and oranges that provide a neutral tone."


title: Analyze That

text: "Analyze That" opened in 2,635 theaters and grossed $11 million in its opening weekend, ranking in second place behind "Die Another Day". The film went on to gross $32 million at the domestic box office and a further $23 million at the international box office for a worldwide total of $55 million against its $60 million budget.


title: Analyze That

text: On Rotten Tomatoes the film has an approval rating of 27% based on 150 reviews, with an average rating of 4.8/10. The site's consensus reads: "The one joke premise is stretched a bit thin in this messy sequel, but a few laughs can be had here and there." On Metacritic the film has a weighted average score of 37 out of 100, based on reviews from 34 critics, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews." Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B" on an A+ to F scale.


title: Analyze That

text: Roger Ebert gave the film 2 out of 4 stars, and wrote "If the first film seemed to flow naturally from the premise, this one seems to slink uneasily onto the screen, aware that it feels exactly like a facile, superficial recycling job."


title: The Circle (American season 3)

text: The third season of the American reality competition streaming series "The Circle" began on Netflix on September 8, 2021, and concluded on September 29, 2021. The season was announced in March 2020 when Netflix renewed "The Circle" for a second and third season. Michelle Buteau returned as host.


title: The Circle (American season 3)

text: Like the previous seasons, players compete against each other to become the most popular, but do not actually meet their competitors. Instead, they communicate through a specially designed app and are able to portray themselves in any way they choose. In August 2021 ahead of the season premiere, the series was renewed for a fourth and fifth season.


title: The Circle (American season 3)

text: On September 29, 2021, the season was won by James Andre Jefferson Jr., who had played the game as himself, and won the US$100,000 prize that came along with it. Matthew Pappadia as "Ashley" was the runner-up. Keisha "Kai" Ghost won the Fan Favorite award and US$10,000.


title: The Circle (American season 3)

text: The contestants, or "players", move into the same apartment building. However, the contestants do not meet face-to-face during the course of the competition, as they each live in their own individual apartment. They communicate solely using their profiles on a specially-designed social media app that gives them the ability to portray themselves in any way they choose. Players can thus opt to present themselves as a completely different personality to the other players, a tactic otherwise known as catfishing.

text: Throughout the series, the contestants "rate" one another from first to last place. At the end of the ratings, their average ratings are revealed to one another from lowest to highest. Normally, the two highest-rated players become "Influencers", while the remaining players will be at risk of being "blocked" by the Influencers. However, occasionally there may be a twist to the blocking process – varying from the lowest rating players being instantly blocked, the identity of the Influencers being a secret, or multiple players being blocked at one time. Blocked players are eliminated from the game, but are given the opportunity to meet one player still in the game in-person. A video message is shown to the remaining players to reveal if they were real or fake the day after.

text: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman is a 4-6-2 Pacific steam locomotive built in 1923 for the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) at Doncaster Works to a design of Nigel Gresley. It was employed on long-distance express East Coast Main Line trains by the LNER and its successors, British Railways Eastern and North-Eastern Regions, notably on the London to Edinburgh "Flying Scotsman" train service after which it was named.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: The locomotive set two world records for steam traction, becoming the first steam locomotive to be officially authenticated as reaching on 30 November 1934, and then setting a record for the longest non-stop run by a steam locomotive when it ran on 8 August 1989 while in Australia.

text: Retired from regular service in 1963 after covering 2.08 million miles, "Flying Scotsman" enjoyed considerable fame in preservation under the ownership of, successively, Alan Pegler, William McAlpine, Tony Marchington, and finally the National Railway Museum (NRM).


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: As well as hauling enthusiast specials in the United Kingdom, the locomotive toured extensively in the United States and Canada from 1969 until 1973 and Australia in 1988 and 1989. "Flying Scotsman" has been described as the world's most famous steam locomotive.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: "Flying Scotsman" is a 4-6-2 "Pacific" locomotive completed in February 1923 at Doncaster Works as the third of 51 Class A1 locomotives built to a design by Nigel Gresley. The A1s were designed for main line and later express passenger services, initially on the Great Northern Railway (GNR), a constituent company of the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) after the amalgamation of 1923, for which they became a standard design. "Flying Scotsman" cost £7,944 to build, and initially carried the number 1472 as the GNR had not yet decided on a system-wide numbering scheme. Following amalgamation, in February 1924 the locomotive acquired its name after "The Flying Scotsman" express service between London King's Cross and Edinburgh Waverley, and assigned a new number, 4472.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: "Flying Scotsman" became a flagship locomotive for the LNER, representing the company at the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley Park in 1924 and 1925. In 1928, the LNER decided to make "The Flying Scotsman" a non-stop service for the first time. 4472 became one of five A1s selected for the service, and hauled the inaugural service on 1 May where it completed the journey in 8 hours and 3 minutes. For this, the locomotives ran with an upgraded tender which held nine long tons of coal and fitted with a corridor connection, so a change of driver and fireman could take place while the train is moving. By replenishing water from the water trough system several times en route, these modifications allowed the A1s to travel the without stopping. "Flying Scotsman" ran with its corridor tender until October 1936, after which it reverted to the original type. In 1938, it was paired with a streamlined non-corridor tender, and ran with this type until its withdrawal in 1963.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: On 30 November 1934, "Flying Scotsman" became the first steam locomotive to reach the officially authenticated speed of while hauling a light test train. It earned a place in the land speed record for railed vehicles, and the publicity-conscious LNER made much of the fact. Although the Great Western Railway's 3700 Class 3440 "City of Truro" was reported to have reached the same speed in 1904, the record was not official.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In 1928, Gresley began to modify the A1s into an improved version, the Class A3. "Flying Scotsman" emerged as an A3 on 4 January 1947. Its old 180 psi boiler was replaced with a 225 psi version with the long "banjo" dome of the type it carries today, and was fitted with more efficient valves and cylinders. In December 1958, it was fitted with a double Kylchap chimney to improve performance and economy, but it caused soft exhaust and smoke drift that tended to obscure the driver's forward vision; the remedy was found in the German-type smoke deflectors fitted at the end of 1961.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: Following the success of Gresley's streamlined Class A4s, "Flying Scotsman" was no longer the LNER's flagship engine and was relegated to lesser duties, but still worked on the main line and hauling passenger services. In 1946, the locomotive was renumbered twice by Gresley's successor Edward Thompson, who devised a comprehensive renumbering scheme for the LNER. 4472 was initially assigned number 502 in January, but an amendment to the system led to its renumbering of 103 four months later. Following the nationalisation of Britain's railways on 1 January 1948, almost all of the LNER locomotive numbers were increased by 60000, and 103 became 60103 that December. On 4 June 1950, now under British Railways ownership, "Flying Scotsman" was allocated to its new base at Leicester Central on the Great Central Railway, running passenger services to and from London Marylebone, Leicester, Sheffield, and Manchester. It returned to the East Coast Main Line in 1953, initially based in Grantham for several months before returning to London King's Cross in April 1954, where it remained until its withdrawal in 1963.

text: In 1962, British Railways announced that it would scrap "Flying Scotsman". No. 60103 ended service with its last scheduled run on 14 January 1963, with Jack Peckston of Copley Hill running the 13:15 from London King's Cross to Leeds, with the locomotive coming off at Doncaster.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: After a previous failed attempt by the Gresley A3 Preservation Society to raise the required £3,000 to buy "Flying Scotsman", businessman and railway enthusiast Alan Pegler stepped in. He first saw the locomotive at the British Empire Exhibition in 1924, and received £70,000 in 1961 for his shareholding in the Northern Rubber Company when it was sold to Pegler's Valves, a company started by his grandfather. In 1963, after 18 months of negotiations with British Railways, Pegler bought the locomotive for £3,500 with the political support of Prime Minister Harold Wilson. He spent large amounts of money restoring the locomotive at Doncaster Works as closely as possible to its LNER condition: it was repainted in its LNER livery; the smoke deflectors were removed; the double chimney replaced by a single; and its standard tender was replaced with a corridor type that the locomotive had run with between 1928 and 1936.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: Pegler's contract with British Railways allowed him to run "Flying Scotsman" on enthusiasts' specials until 31 December 1971; for a time it was the only steam locomotive running on the British mainline. Its first public run was from London Paddington to Ruabon, Wales and back on 10 April 1963, where over 8,000 people came out to see the locomotive at Birmingham. In the following year, Pegler had the engine stand on the Forth Bridge for several days while it was sketched for a portrait by Terence Cuneo. On 13 November 1965, "Flying Scotsman" claimed the fastest steam hauled run between London Paddington and Cardiff, working the Panda Pullman. It also set the fastest run on the return journey. By the end of 1965, "Flying Scotsman" had recouped the £3,000 it cost Pegler to buy it. As watering facilities for steam locomotives were disappearing, in September 1966 Pegler spent £1,000 on a second corridor tender which was adapted as an auxiliary water tank for a further £6,000 and coupled behind the first tender. This allowed the engine to operate with a total water capacity of around 11,000 gallons. Boiler and cylinder parts from "Flying Scotsman" scrapped sister engine, 60041 "Salmon Trout" were also purchased. In May 1968, the locomotive completed a non-stop London to Edinburgh run, marking the 40th anniversary of the inaugural non-stop "Flying Scotsman" service and the year steam traction officially ended on British Railways. A non-stop return journey was made three days later.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: Following an overhaul on the locomotive in the winter of 1968–69, Wilson's government agreed to support Pegler running "Flying Scotsman" in the United States and Canada to support British exports. To comply with local railway regulations it was fitted with a cowcatcher, bell, buckeye couplings, American-style whistle, air brakes, and high-intensity headlamp. The tour began on 8 October 1969 with a run from Boston, Massachusetts to Atlanta, Georgia via New York City and Washington, D.C., and continued to Slaton, Texas during the winter. Despite starting well the tour ran into problems, as strict anti-steam laws in some states deemed the engine a fire hazard or required the engine to be towed by a diesel or electric locomotive. None of the trips on the tour carried paying passengers as it was declared illegal to do so. Nonetheless "Flying Scotsman" completed its journey from Texas to Wisconsin before finishing in Montreal in 1970; and from Toronto to San Francisco in 1971, a total of .


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: While in San Francisco, "Flying Scotsman" ran a series of passenger trips on the San Francisco Belt Railroad and was put on show at Fisherman's Wharf. Although a commercial success at first, Pegler was £132,000 in debt by the end of 1971 and declared himself bankrupt in the following year, leaving "Flying Scotsman" stranded in the US. He arranged for the engine to be kept in storage at the US Army Sharpe Depot in Lathrop, California to keep it from unpaid creditors. Pegler worked his passage home from San Francisco to England on a P&O cruise ship, and began a new career giving lectures about trains and travel in addition to being chairman of the Ffestiniog Railway.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: Amid fears of the engine's future, horticulturist and steam enthusiast Alan Bloom phoned businessman William McAlpine in January 1973 in an attempt to save it. McAlpine agreed and dealt with the attorneys, paid the creditors, and bought the locomotive. "Flying Scotsman" was shipped back to England via the Panama Canal in the following month. Upon arrival at Liverpool, the engine travelled to Derby under its own steam with the route lined with crowds. McAlpine paid for its restoration at Derby Works and two subsequent overhauls in the 23 years that he owned and ran it.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: Trial runs took place on the Paignton and Dartmouth Steam Railway, of which McAlpine was chairman, in summer 1973, after which it was transferred to Steamtown in Carnforth, from where it steamed on regular tours. In December 1977, "Flying Scotsman" entered the Vickers Engineering Works in Barrow-in-Furness for heavy repairs, including an unused replacement boiler. In 1986, McAlpine leased a former diesel locomotive maintenance shop at Southall Railway Centre, which became the new base for "Flying Scotsman" until 2004.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In October 1988, at the invitation of the Australian Government, "Flying Scotsman" arrived in Australia to take part in the country's bicentenary celebrations as a central attraction in the Aus Steam '88 festival. The event organisers had been interested in having LNER A4 No 4468 "Mallard" visit, but it was unavailable due to the 50th anniversary of its world record high-speed run, and 4472 was recommended as its replacement. During the course of the next year "Flying Scotsman" travelled more than over Australian rails, concluding with a return transcontinental run from Sydney to Perth via Alice Springs in which it became the first steam locomotive to travel on the recently built standard gauge line to Alice Springs. Whilst in Australia it was operated by 3801 Limited (now East Coast Heritage Rail), and was often seen working with Locomotive 3801.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: Other highlights included "Flying Scotsman" double-heading with New South Wales Government Railways Pacific locomotive 3801, a triple-parallel run alongside broad gauge Victorian Railways R class locomotives, and parallel runs alongside South Australian Railways locomotives 520 and 621. Its visit to Perth saw a reunion with GWR 4073 Class "Pendennis Castle", which had been exhibited alongside "Flying Scotsman" at the 1924 British Empire Exhibition. On 8 August 1989 "Flying Scotsman" set another record en route to Alice Springs from Melbourne, travelling from Parkes to Broken Hill non-stop, the longest such run by a steam locomotive ever recorded. The same journey also saw "Flying Scotsman" set its own haulage record when it took a 735-ton train over the leg between Tarcoola and Alice Springs.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: "Flying Scotsman" returned to Britain in December 1989, where it resumed working on heritage railways and the mainline from the following May. It returned to its former British Railways condition with the refitting of the German-style smoke deflectors and double chimney, and repainted in BR Brunswick Green. In 1993, McAlpine sold "Flying Scotsman" to help pay off a mortgage on the locomotive. This resulted in music producer and railway enthusiast Pete Waterman to merge his railway interests with McAlpine's, and the two formed Flying Scotsman Railways with Waterman running the business side of the partnership.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In April 1995, while working on the Llangollen Railway in Wales, "Flying Scotsman" derailed during an empty stock movement, with all wheels coming off the track before coming to a halt. When placed back on the rails and put back into steam, smoke emerged from a crack separating the boiler and the front cab. It was deemed a total failure, and immediately withdrawn from service. In June the locomotive returned to Southall, awaiting its next major overhaul.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: By 1996, McAlpine and Waterman had run into financial issues and to help pay off an overdraft, McAlpine decided to put "Flying Scotsman" on sale. On 23 February, entrepreneur Tony Marchington, already well known in the steam preservation movement, bought the locomotive and a set of coaches for £1.5 million. He spent a further £1 million on the locomotive's subsequent overhaul to mainline condition, which lasted three years and at that point, the most extensive in its history. Its first run following the works took place on 4 July 1999, hauling "The Inaugural Scotsman" from London King's Cross to York. It also hauled several Venice-Simplon Orient Express Pullman trains. Marchington's time with the "Flying Scotsman" was the subject of the Channel 4 documentary "A Steamy Affair: The Story of Flying Scotsman".


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In 2002, Marchington proposed a business plan which included the construction of a Flying Scotsman Village in Edinburgh, to create revenue from associated branding. After floating on OFEX as Flying Scotsman plc in the same year, in 2003 Edinburgh City Council turned down the village plans, and in September 2003 Marchington was declared bankrupt. Flying Scotsman plc CEO Peter Butler announced losses of £474,619, and with a £1.5 million overdraft at Barclays Bank, stated that the company only had enough cash to trade until April 2004. Later the company's shares were suspended after it had failed to declare interim results.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In February 2004, a debt agency acting on behalf of Flying Scotsman plc announced it would hold a sealed bid auction for the locomotive, to be held on 2 April. Amid fears it could be sold into foreign hands, the National Railway Museum (NRM) in York announced it would bid, and appealed for funds. It secured a winning bid of £2.3 million, 15% higher than the second highest bidder. The bulk of the money came from a £1.8 million grant from the National Heritage Memorial Fund, with the remainder coming from £350,000 raised from public donations which was matched by businessman Richard Branson, and £70,000 raised by "The Yorkshire Post" newspaper. Included in the sale was a spare boiler from 1944 that "Flying Scotsman" carried from 1965 to 1978, spare cylinders, and a Mark 1 support coach. The locomotive arrived in York in time to be exhibited as part of the museum's Railfest in June 2004 to celebrate 200 years of rail travel.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In 2004 and 2005, "Flying Scotsman" intermittently hauled special trains across Great Britain, although problems with its condition soon became apparent. It failed on the delivery trip to Railfest and several times more in the following months, but the museum's engineering staff failed to spot critical faults. From September 2004 until May 2005, it sat at the NRM's workshop for a heavy intermediate repair, the intention being to improve reliability and allow operation until its general overhaul and restoration. However, by the end of 2005 the intermediate repairs failed to improve the situation and the NRM decided to proceed with the general overhaul.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: The locomotive entered the NRM's workshops in January 2006, with the original intention to return it to Gresley's original specification and renew its boiler certificate. It was estimated that this would take one year to complete, and cost around £750,000. The works were on view for visitors at the NRM, but the engine was rapidly dismantled to such an extent that the running plate was the only component recognisable to the casual observer.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In July 2007, the museum pushed back the expected completion date by 18 months, due in part to issues with the boiler restoration. By 2009, with further problems encountered including misaligned frames and a cracked cylinder, plus rising metal prices, the museum launched the SOS ("Save Our Scotsman") appeal, seeking to raise a further £250,000 with the aim of completing the work by the end of the year. In May 2011, "Flying Scotsman" was unveiled on the museum's turntable, finished in wartime black LNER livery; after final tests, it was to be painted LNER apple green and have it running excursions by the summer. However, cracks were discovered in the horn blocks and further testing revealed more cracks throughout the frame assembly, leading to the replacement of the main stretcher bar, horn ties and middle cylinder motion bracket, all of which were deemed beyond repair.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In 2012, with the project still unfinished, the museum published a report examining the reasons for the delay and additional cost. It found that the museum had greatly underestimated the work required due to the poor condition of the locomotive, much of which had been missed by a rushed inspection, which produced an overly optimistic assessment which was not based on engineering realities. It also found that once the project was underway, management lacked the experience, continuity or resources to undertake such a complex task, which was also hampered by illness and recruitment issues. Although the museum had a formal contract system to manage suppliers, managers failed to implement it properly. Problems were also caused by the conflicting objectives of producing a certified mainline locomotive while retaining as many original components and assemblies as possible, and between the need to overhaul the locomotive and use it as a marketing tool for the museum. The report recommended that the NRM consider the scope, size and responsibilities of their project management and engineering functions, and their contracting policy.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: Following the report, the NRM commissioned First Class Partnerships (FCP) to independently review the remaining work identified as necessary by the NRM, and make recommendations on how to proceed. In March 2013, the museum announced FCP had determined the locomotive would not return to the main line until 2015, and believed the outstanding work should be put out to external tender. Riley & Son was announced as the winning contractor, and on the same day the locomotive was moved to their workshop in order to return it to running condition no earlier than the summer of 2015. In April 2015, the boiler left the NRM to be reunited with the rest of the locomotive. Three months later, as restoration neared completion, it was estimated to have the locomotive back in service by early 2016, with new electronic equipment needed to operate on the mainline. The final cost of the restoration amounted to £4.5 million, having risen by a £300,000 estimate in the summer of 2015 due to the further necessary work and the need to meet the deadline for the return to service.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: On 8 January 2016, "Flying Scotsman" moved under its own steam for the first time since 2005. Following tests on the East Lancashire Railway, its inaugural mainline run was cancelled due to faulty brakes. It was rescheduled for 6 February, hauling "The Winter Cumbrian Mountain Express" from Carnforth to Carlisle, still wearing its 2011 wartime black livery with the number 60103 on the smokebox and its LNER wartime numbers, 103 and 502, on the cab sides. After it was repainted in BR Brunswick Green, "Flying Scotsman" returned to London King's Cross on 25 February with a run to York. Thousands of people lined the route, and the train was forced to stop due to members of the public trespassing on the line near St Neots.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: "Flying Scotsman" has run on British heritage and mainline railways since its return in 2016. In October 2018, six years after Pegler's death, it hauled the Farewell Alan Pegler special from King's Cross to York, organised at the request of his daughter. In his will, Pegler requested for half of his ashes to be placed in the firebox of the locomotive as it ascended Stoke Bank. The climb was accompanied by a long blast of the whistle as passengers onboard gave a moment of silence. In January 2019, "Flying Scotsman" hauled the non-stop Scotsman's Salute from King's Cross to York, this time as a tribute to McAlpine following his death in March 2018.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In April 2022, the engine was withdrawn for an overhaul in preparation for its centenary year in 2023. Following the work it will be certified to run on the mainline until 2029, after which it will run solely on heritage railways until 2032. Its first engagement following restoration was to be a summer visit to the Bluebell Railway, but it was postponed and rescheduled for 2023 after a broken piston ring was discovered to have damaged a cylinder. It appeared at London King's Cross as a static display for two days to commemorate the 170th anniversary of the station's opening on 14 and 15 October 2022, followed by a return to steam for a visit to the Swanage Railway.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: Because of the LNER's emphasis on using the locomotive for publicity purposes, and then its eventful preservation history, including two international forays, it is one of the UK's most recognised locomotives. One of its first film appearances was in the 1929 film "The Flying Scotsman", which featured an entire sequence set aboard the locomotive. "Flying Scotsman" is seen in "Agatha" (1979), disguised as two other members of the class–4474 "Victor Wild" on one side and 4480 "Enterprise" on the other. "Flying Scotsman" makes a short appearance in "102 Dalmatians" (2000). It was filmed leaving London St Pancras, which was the final steam-hauled departure from the station prior to its reconstruction as the new Eurostar terminal.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In 1985, "Flying Scotsman" appeared alongside an InterCity 125 in a British Rail television advert. The locomotive was the first choice for the "Top Gear" Race to the North in 2009, but was unable to attend due to its overhaul. LNER Class A1 60163 "Tornado" was used instead. In 2011, a Tri-ang Hornby model of "Flying Scotsman" appeared in two episodes of "James May's Toy Stories". It was James May's personal childhood model and was chosen by him to complete a world record for the longest model railway. The train was meant to travel seven miles, from Barnstaple to Bideford in North Devon, but it failed early in the trip. It completed the run on a subsequent attempt. The model reappeared in "", in which it was completely disassembled and then put back together by May as a demonstration.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: In 2016, "Flying Scotsman" was the subject of two television documentaries. "Flying Scotsman from the Footplate" aired on BBC 4, and "Flying Scotsman with Robson Green" was broadcast on ITV. The latter features Green who spent a year with the team of engineers commissioned to restore the locomotive.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: "Flying Scotsman" is featured in "The Railway Series" books by the Rev. W. Awdry. The engine visited the fictional Island of Sodor in the book "Enterprising Engines" to visit his only remaining brother, Gordon. Its two tenders was a key feature of the plot of "Tenders for Henry". When the story was filmed for the television series "Thomas & Friends", renamed as "Tender Engines", only "Flying Scotsman's" two tenders were seen outside a shed. "Flying Scotsman" was intended to have a larger role in this episode, but due to budgetary constraints the entire model could not be constructed.


title: LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman

text: "Flying Scotsman" makes a full appearance in the animated film "" (2016), where he is voiced by Rufus Jones in both the UK and US dubs. Beyond the movie, he would also appear as a recurring character.

text: Hornby marketed N gauge British profile locomotives made by Minitrix for several years from 1977 as ‘Hornby Minitrix’. When the agreement ended Minitrix continued for a while to make and sell British locos and 2 versions of Flying Scotsman were the last listed in catalogues. It was sold first as 60103 in BR green and crest, then later as 4472 in LNER green and lettering. The models come up for sale occasionally on eBay etc and are still good runners though designed for use on DC layouts.

text: 4Kids Entertainment, Inc. (formerly known as Leisure Concepts, Inc. and later known as 4Licensing Corporation) was an American licensing company. The company was previously also a film and television production company that produced English-dubbed Japanese anime through its subsidiary 4Kids Productions between 1992 and 2012; it specialized in the acquisition, production and licensing of children's entertainment around the United States. The first anime that 4Kids Productions dubbed was the first eight seasons of "Pokémon" that originally began airing on first run syndication and then it later moved to exclusively air on Kids' WB! in the United States. The company is most well known for its range of television licenses, which has included the multibillion-dollar "Pokémon" and "Yu-Gi-Oh!" Japanese anime franchises. They also ran two program blocks: Toonzai (originally The CW4Kids) on The CW, and 4Kids TV (originally FoxBox) on Fox, both aimed at children. The 4KidsTV block ended on December 27, 2008; Toonzai block ended on August 18, 2012, which was replaced by Saban's Vortexx, which in itself was succeeded by Litton's One Magnificent Morning in 2014.

text: 4Licensing Corporation had its world headquarters on Third Avenue in New York City, its former subsidiary, 4Kids Productions, had its headquarters in a separate building in Manhattan. The New York Stock Exchange delisted 4Kids (NYSE: KDE) on June 1, 2010. On April 6, 2011, it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection following a lawsuit concerning the "Yu-Gi-Oh!" franchise. On December 13, 2012, the company announced that it had emerged from bankruptcy. On September 21, 2016, it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection once again and shut down operations one year later.

text: Leisure Concepts was co-founded on April 28, 1970, by Mike Germakian (later who would be known as one of the creators of ThunderCats) and Stan Weston (the creator of G.I. Joe and Captain Action), as an independent licensing agency in New York City. Mike Germakian was the secretary of LCI, while Stan Weston was initially the President and later the Chairman of Leisure Concepts. Weston was also the Treasurer of the company.


title: 4Kids Entertainment

text: In the beginning, the company pitched toy and cartoon ideas to various companies, as well as formed partnerships with companies such as Rankin/Bass, among others.


title: 4Kids Entertainment

text: LCI began making news in the 1980s through licensing actual people, a variety of products, and even concepts. The company also had a growing number of deals with television producers and toy manufacturers.


title: 4Kids Entertainment

text: Among the company's licenses at the time were Farrah Fawcett of Charlie's Angels fame, Charlie Chan, James Bond 007, a wide array of Nintendo characters and products, the Hulk, Buck Rogers in the 25th Century TV Series and many others.


title: 4Kids Entertainment

text: LCI is credited in its assistance in the initial development of the "ThunderCats" concept and acted on behalf of Lorimar-Telepictures Corp as an exclusive worldwide licensing agent for products based on "Thundercats", an agreement that was signed between the two parties on June 15, 1984.


title: 4Kids Entertainment

text: During the mid-1980s, Ted Wolf came up with the idea of a race of catlike humanoid superheroes. He shared his vision with his friend Stan Weston, who in turn, through LCI, pitched it to Rankin/Bass Animated Entertainment. Both Arthur Rankin Jr and Jules Bass were impressed with the idea and the potential that it had of becoming an instant success. They approved of it and "ThunderCats" went into production.


title: 4Kids Entertainment

text: During the early development stage, Mike Germakian designed much of the ThunderCats' characters, vehicles and locations. He was also responsible for creating the now iconic ThunderCats logo, featuring a stylized black panther head on a red circle. Germakian's designs were then sent to Pacific Animation Corporation in Japan to be adapted into cartoon format. After completing work on ThunderCats, Germakian went on to design characters for SilverHawks and The Comic Strip, both Rankin/Bass shows.

text: On December 17, 1987, LCI signed a licensing deal with Nintendo of America, Inc. to market the software products that went along with its increasingly popular gaming systems. Nintendo had already introduced "The Legend of Zelda" for its home video game system, a software product that went on to sell more than one million copies during the year. Some time in 1986, the company also signed a licensing deal to market "Star Wars".


title: 4Kids Entertainment

text: The 1990s were seen as turning point for the company. In the early 1990s, LCI expanded its operations and began television production in 1992. This would include English-dubbing Japanese anime through its subsidiary 4Kids Productions, which the company would be mostly known for.

text: On January 17, 2006, 4Kids and Microsoft signed a deal to license children's video games exclusively for the Xbox 360 gaming system, in an effort to put more child-oriented games on the system, whose gaming library was at the time dominated by games targeted toward the 12-and-up market. One of the first titles announced was "Viva Piñata" which would be developed by Rare. On June 10, 2006, 4Kids licensed the sequel series to Yu-Gi-Oh, Yu-Gi-Oh GX, for release in North America.


title: 4Kids Entertainment

text: On April 18, 2006, 4Kids launched a new subsidiary entitled 4Sight Licensing Solutions Inc., which licenses and market brands aimed at adults, teenagers and pre-teens. "We have built an impressive roster of captivating and successful children's entertainment properties," said Alfred Kahn. "Given the increased number of brands that we are representing that focus on an older audience, we felt it would be beneficial to organize a new subsidiary primarily devoted to the marketing and licensing of these brands. We believe that we can successfully utilize our marketing and licensing expertise to build brand value for properties targeting an older consumer that are not necessarily media or character driven."

"The formation of TC Digital Games and TC Websites represent a significant enhancement of our business strategy," said Alfred R. Kahn, chairman and CEO of 4Kids Entertainment. TC Digital Games LLC and TC Websites LLC were shut down in 2010, due to continued lack of profitability.
