Who produced and played on the Kiki Dee song Star? Thanks, DuncanHill (talk) 02:58, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

According to discogs.com, the producer was Pip Williams. According to this site (which looks fairly comprehensive), the list of musicians on "Star" is:

Bob Jenkins: Drums and Clap Trap

Gary Twigg: Bass Guitar

Bias Boshell: Pianos, Yamaha Dream Machine and Roland SH7 Synths

Pip Williams: Electric Guitars

Frank Ricotti: Sleigh Bells

Zelda help?

I've been playing an online emulator lately that hosts the original Zelda game. I've been in a deadlock the last two rounds - I'm supposed to "meet an old man by a grave" and find a "secret" in a "tree at a dead end."

Where on earth are those things? Has anyone played it and can help me? Theskinnytypist (talk) 06:49, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

GameFAQs has a walkthrough that'll help you. The old man = where you get the Master Sword, the tree at the dead end = the entrance to Level 8. Here's an interesting link that shows some of the differences between the original Japanese and the English translation, which is why some of these hints make less sense than they should.

Horse racing's J.T. Lundy

I am trying to find out if infamous president of legendary Calumet Farm, John Thomas Lundy (J.T.), is still living. It appears he or someone linked to him has had the internet swept clean of facts about J.T. Lundy the person. I can read accounts of his sentencing and his release from prison but nowhere can I find if he is living and if so, still involved in racing or, if not, when he died. Wikipedia mentions him in the Calumet entry but his name is not hot-linked. Can you help?

I did some searches of news sources and found nothing. While this does not tell us whether Lundy is alive or not, it does suggest that he is not still involved in racing. John M Baker (talk) 17:39, 9 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Daniel Radcliffe's glasses

What films or TV programmes did Daniel Radcliffe wore glasses in?86.172.85.225 (talk) 20:34, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure that guy might've been in a few scenes of Harry Potter. I guess you want something other than that? Staecker (talk) 20:59, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

He wore glasses in Kill Your Darlings, but took them off to be buggered by a sailor. DuncanHill (talk) 21:43, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

We should ask Miss Manners if it's proper etiquette to remove one's glasses during such an activity. StuRat (talk) 17:42, 8 February 2016 (UTC) [reply]

Most people do, in my experience. DuncanHill (talk) 17:53, 8 February 2016 (UTC) [reply]

My ex liked to imagine a love scene in which the camera closes in on two pairs of glasses before fading out. —Tamfang (talk) 08:21, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

My Boy Jack Hotclaws (talk) 11:23, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Specifically My Boy Jack (film). Radcliffe plays Rudyard Kipling's only son Jack, for whom his father goes to great lengths to get him accepted into the army during the First World War, despite Jack being badly short-sighted. Jack's final demise when he loses his glasses on the battlefield and is killed as a result may owe more to artistic licence than strict historical truth, but it's worth watching anyhow.
