Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (car)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is the vintage racing car which features in the book, musical film and stage production of the same name. Writer Ian Fleming took his inspiration for the car from a series of aero-engined racing cars built by Count Louis Zborowski in the early 1920s, christened Chitty Bang Bang. The original Chitty Bang Bang's motor was from a Zeppelin dirigible. The name reputedly derived either from the sound it made whilst idling, or from a bawdy song from World War I.[citation needed] Six versions of the car were built for the film and a number of replicas have subsequently been produced. The version built for the stage production holds the record for the most expensive stage prop ever used.

Film cars[edit]
For the 1968 film, six cars were created, including a fully functional road-going car with UK registration GEN 11. This car was designed by the film's production designer, Ken Adam, and cartoonist and sculptor Frederick Rowland Emett, built by Alan Mann Racing in Hertfordshire in 1967, fitted with a Ford 3000 V6 engine and automatic transmission and allocated a genuine UK registration. This car was privately owned by Pierre Picton of Stratford-upon-Avon from the early 1970s until May 2011.[1] Actor Dick van Dyke, who drove the car in the film, said that "the car was a little difficult to maneuver, with the turning radius of a battleship".[2] Public appearances of the car in 2010 are listed on the GEN 11 official website, with a note that there will be no more as the car was sent to Los Angeles, USA, to be auctioned on 22 May 2011.[3][4] The auction price was expected to reach US$1–2m, but capped at $805,000 (£495,415) with the winning bidder New Zealand film director Sir Peter Jackson, who according to his spokesperson said he would use it as a charity fund-raising vehicle.[5][6][7] It is registered in New Zealand as GEN 1I, as the registration GEN 11 had already been issued.[8]
Five other car props were built by the studio: a second, smaller road-going version; a transforming car; a hover-car; a flying car; and an engineless version for trailer work. Most had engines added after filming was complete and were used to promote the film throughout the world.
The second road version, which only appears in 12 seconds of the movie, is on display at the Dezer Car Museum in North Miami, Florida.[9] There were construction flaws on this vehicle which made its use impractical. Eon Productions made a less-detailed transforming version which they use to promote the stage musical but, as it does not have an MOT certificate (of roadworthiness), is not allowed on public roads. The final road version is privately owned by Anthony Bamford, and is on display at the National Motor Museum in Beaulieu, UK. The hover-car was a shell mounted on a speed boat, and was destroyed after filming. Only the original road-going version used the registration GEN 11 legitimately and it was owned by Pierre Picton of Stratford upon Avon. One of the cars used in the film was displayed at a Chicago restaurant for many years, then sold at auction in 2007 for $505,000 to a Florida resident.[10]
One car appeared in a humorous Public information film aimed at British motorists, intended to remind them to pay their Vehicle excise duty. Ironically, there was criticism as all cars built before 1 January 1973, including the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang model, are exempt from vehicle excise duty in the UK. The PIF was a parody of the MGM film.
In July 2009, the EON copy of the car was prevented from being used in Norwich by the police, as the car was not roadworthy, properly registered or insured.[11] The GEN 11, Pierre Picton car subsequently visited the city of Norwich in August 2009 to promote the theatre show.
Replica cars[edit]

There is a MGM licensed replica in the United Kingdom, built for a commercial photography business. The car is roadworthy and has the registration number GEN 22. It weighs around 1.5 tons and is nearly 18 feet long and 6 feet wide. The brass lamps are all original period pieces and the brass snake horn came from one of the original Chitty cars. The engine is a 3L V6 Ford with a BorgWarner automatic gearbox.[12][13] The car is displayed at events and in shopping centres.
Another Chitty 'copy' was built by Nick Pointing of the Isle of Wight after his wife Carolyn, a lifelong Chitty Chitty Bang Bang fan asked him to build her dream car. The car was built on a 1970s Land Rover chassis and engine and was driven 12,000 miles overland to Australia in 2007/8 to raise money for charity.[14][15]
A replica Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car built by Gordon Grant was sold at an auction held on 1 December 2011 at Bonhams at Mercedes Benz World in Weybridge, Surrey, UK.[16][17] The car was later sold to broadcaster Chris Evans after the purchaser found it was too long to fit in his garage.[18][19] The car, which is now registered as 772 YUJ, has erroneously been reported in a number of newspapers as the original GEN 11 film car.[19][20]
Another replica was built and finished in July 2014 by hospital worker & jeweller John Rothwell of Cambridge UK. It is based upon a Reliant Rialto chassis and took approximately 3 years to build in a tiny garage rented from the local council offices. Being a three-wheeler based chassis makes this car unique and also takes it out of the running of being a genuine replica. This three-wheel version of Chitty was used by a local car insurance company for a promotion campaign and is frequently taken to local car shows where it helps to raise money for Addenbrookes Hospital Charitable Trust.[21][22]
A replica car, built by retired NYPD police Sergeant, Tony Garofalo, of Long Island, New York, was completed in June 2015 after a 5-year project build at a cost of over $100,000. The car is modelled in exacting detail to the original motion picture car, after Garofalo conducted a personal inspection of two original Chitty Chitty Bang Bang cars. Built on a vintage, road legal, 1914 Overland car, and a vintage Ford Model A Engine, the car features automated opening retractable wings and vintage brass adornments. All of the bright work featured is brass, aluminum, stainless steel and copper to prevent any corrosion over time. It is reported that over 90% of the car has been fabricated, although the original vintage chassis, drivetrain and rear axle have been retained, with an additional conversion to 12 volts. The car is finely detailed with all of the iconic brass features of the original movie car, including a vintage serpent snake horn from an antique Mercedes vehicle. Garofalo also owns the original Broadway Stage Production Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car featured in the U.S. Stage tour, as well as a costume worn by Dick Van Dyke in the film.[23][24]
Actually the Garofalo replica lacks in several specific and iconic features of the original. The most noticeable is the front grill as seen here[25] which is an oval when compared to the original "egg" shape grill. Additionally the lower front steering axle is not exact either. This photo of the original #1 GEN11 shows the correct grill shape and lower axle shape. [26] Tony's is a fantastic replica and work of art, but don't claim it to be an exacting detail to the original when significant features are easily recognized as not accurate.
Stage production car[edit]
Another version of the car, built for the British stage production of the story, debuted at The London Palladium in 2002. Built at a cost of £750,000, the car is listed in Guinness World Records as the most expensive stage prop ever.[27]
In July 2014, Tony Garofalo became the new owner of the US National Broadway Touring Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Prop Car, by a sale release made by Big League Productions of New York City. This prop car is highly detailed and is fully equipped with multiple Stage prop tricks, including computer activated retractable wings and rotating 45 degree tilt tires. The car was originally constructed at The Rolling Stock Company of Sarasota, Florida and hydraulics designed and constructed at PRG of New Windsor, NY, under license by Michael Rose and MGM On Stage.[21]

The 2018 season of the Indian Premier League, also known as IPL 11, was the eleventh season of the IPL, a professional Twenty20 cricket league established by the BCCI in 2007. The season, which is being held from 7 April to 27 May, saw the return of the Chennai Super Kings and the Rajasthan Royals after serving two years of suspension for the involvement of their respective owners in the 2013 IPL betting case. Star Sports purchased the media rights at ₹16,347.5 crore ($2.55 billion) for five years starting from 2018.[1]
Chennai Super Kings won by 8 wickets against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the final to win their third title. Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Kane Williamson won the Orange Cap for the leading run-scorer of the tournament with 735 runs. Andrew Tye, of Kings XI Punjab, was awarded the Purple Cap for finishing as the leading wicket-taker of the tournament with 24 wickets. Sunil Narine of Kolkata Knight Riders was named Most Valuable Player, also known as Man of the Series, while Rishabh Pant of Delhi Daredevils was named the Emerging Player of the Tournament.

Background
This was the first season of the IPL to use DRS.[2] IPL Fanpark, an initiative where matches are hosted in stadia on a large screen has been planned to be held across 36 cities in 19 states across the India.[3] This season also will introduce mid-season transfers. The transfer window will be a short five-day transfer window applicable only for uncapped players who have played not more than two matches at the halfway mark of the tournament.[4]
Format
Eight teams are scheduled to play in 2018. The tournament involves each team playing every other team twice in a home-and-away, double round-robin format. At the conclusion of the double round-robin league, the top four teams on the basis of aggregate points qualify for the playoffs. In this stage, the top two teams compete with each other (in a match titled "Qualifier 1"), as do the remaining two teams (in a match titled "Eliminator"). While the winner of Qualifier 1 directly qualifies for the final match, the losing team gets another chance to qualify for the final match by playing the winning team of the Eliminator match; this match is titled Qualifier 2. The winner of this subsequent Qualifier 2 match moves onto the final match. The team that wins the final match is crowned the Indian Premier League winners.The schedule for the tournament was published on 14 February 2018.[5]
Broadcast
Star Sports won the global media rights at ₹16,347.5 crore ($2.55 billion) for five years starting from 2018.[1] In India, the tournament will be broadcast on Star Network channels in six languages (English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Bengali).[6] For the first time, IPL would also be broadcast on public broadcaster Doordarshan.[7] The television rights for rest of the world were won by Willow TV for US and Canada, Sky Sports for UK, Fox Sports for Australia, Sky Sport for New Zealand, SuperSport for sub Saharan Africa, beIN Sports for Middle-East and North America, Flow TV for Caribbean, Geo Super for Pakistan, Channel 9 for Bangladesh and Lemar TV for Afghanistan.[6] The radio rights were won by Cricket Radio globally (except Indian subcontinent), 89.1 Radio 4 FM and Gold 101.3 FM for US and Talksport for UK.[6] Star's digital platform Hotstar held the digital rights for India, US and Canada. The digital rights for rest of the world were won by Sky Sports for UK, Fox Sports for Australia, Sky Sport for New Zealand, SuperSport for sub Saharan Africa, beIN Sports for Middle-East and North America, Flow TV for Caribbean, Geo Super for Pakistan, Channel 9 for Bangladesh and YuppTV for Australia, Europe, SE Asia & South America.[6] Star India also announced its plan to broadcast IPL in Virtual Reality.[8]
Venues
Per the original schedule, all teams except for Kings XI Punjab, would play their home games at their traditional home venues. Kings XI were scheduled to play three of their home games in Indore and the other four games in Mohali.[5] The schedule was later changed due to logistical issues owing to the temporary closure of Chandigarh Airport, and as a result, Kings XI would play three of their home games in Mohali and the other four games in Indore making an exception to the rule of playing at least four home matches at their designated home venue.[9] The IPL matches in Chennai were threatened due to the Kaveri water dispute protests.[10] The Madras High Court issued a notice to BCCI after a PIL was filed seeking a stay on the IPL matches in Chennai.[11] On 11 April that Chennai's six remaining home matches would be held in Pune instead due to security concerns resulting from the protests.[12]
Ten venues were selected to host the matches. The opening match and the final will be played at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The venues for the two playoffs were not announced initially due to the norm of allotting the Eliminator and second qualifier to the home stadium of last season's runner-up, and the fact that the 2017 runner-up, Rising Pune Supergiant were no longer a part of the IPL. [13] Later, both playoffs were allotted to Pune but after the venue of Chennai Super Kings was moved there, the matches were shifted to Kolkata.[14][15]

Main article: List of 2018 Indian Premier League personnel changes
Further information: List of current Indian Premier League team rosters
The IPL Governing Council announced that each IPL franchise could retain a maximum of five players from their respective current squads. Of the five players, a franchise could retain a maximum of three players through retention in lead up to the auction, and a maximum of three players through right-to-match card during the auction. The other restrictions on player retention were: a maximum of three capped Indian players could be retained, and only two overseas players and two uncapped Indian players could be retained. The salary cap for each team for the 2018 season was increased from ₹66 crore to ₹80 crore (approximately $12.4 million). A franchise was allowed to spend only ₹33 crore on retentions ahead of the 2018 IPL auction, leaving it at least ₹47 crore to spend at the auction.[16][17]
IPL teams were asked to submit their retention list by January 4. For the first time in IPL history, the player retention event was broadcast live on Star Sports.[18] The IPL auction was held on 27 and 28 January at Bangalore a day after the final of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.[19] 169 players (104 Indians and 56 Overseas) were sold at auction. Ben Stokes fetched the highest bid of ₹12.5 crore (US$1.95 million). Jaydev Unadkat was the most costly Indian player at ₹11.5 crore (US$1.80 million). Among uncapped players Krunal Pandya was most expensive at ₹8.8 crore(US$1.38 million). Many prominent players such as Lasith Malinga, Dale Steyn, Ishant Sharma, Hashim Amla , Martin Guptill and Joe Root remain unsold. [20]
Opening ceremony
The season had a single opening ceremony, unlike 2017 IPL, before the first match on 7 April. The ceremony included performances by Varun Dhawan, Prabhu Deva, Mika Singh, Tamannaah Bhatia, Jacqueline Fernandez and Hrithik Roshan.[21]

The Blood of Olympus is a 2014 fantasy adventure novel written by American author Rick Riordan, based on Greek and Roman mythology. It is the fifth and final book in The Heroes of Olympus series, preceded by The House of Hades and followed by The Hidden Oracle in The Trials of Apollo series. The seven demigods of the Prophecy of Seven—Percy Jackson, Annabeth Chase, Jason Grace, Leo Valdez, Piper McLean, Hazel Levesque, and Frank Zhang—go on their final adventure to defeat Gaea while Nico di Angelo, Reyna Avila Ramírez-Arellano, and Coach Gleeson Hedge attempt to bring the Athena Parthenos to Camp Half-Blood in order to prevent a war between the Roman and Greek demigods.[3] The novel is narrated in third-person, alternating between the points of view of Jason, Piper, Leo, Reyna, and Nico, making it the first time in the series that someone other than one of the seven demigods of the prophecy is the viewpoint character.[2]

Plot[edit]
This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. Please help improve it by removing unnecessary details and making it more concise. (October 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
The seven demigods continue their journey through Greece. Upon hearing that resurrected souls are gathering at Odysseus' home in Ithaca, Jason, Piper, and Annabeth disguise themselves with Hazel's Mist to infiltrate the proceedings. They learn that Gaea's army does not plan to invade Mount Olympus as expected, but the Acropolis in Athens, where most of them have gathered. Since the Gulf of Corinth is heavily fortified and guarded by the army, the demigods decide they have no choice but to circle the whole Peloponnese to reach Athens. When Michael Varus, one of the souls, recognizes the demigods' deception, he forces Jason to confront his mother's insane spirit, whom Jason rejects, and mortally wounds Jason. As Jason recuperates, the three demigods use Odysseus' marriage bed to summon Juno who is stabilized because the bed represents Penelope's faithfulness to her husband, Odysseus. She tells them to seek Nike at Olympia and reach out to Artemis and Apollo, both of whom have been banished by Zeus. At Olympia, Percy, Leo, Hazel, and Frank are forced to participate in Nike's deadly Olympic Games, capture and detain her. Coerced, she reveals that one of them is destined to die, and that they need the "Physician's Cure". It is a cure that consists of Pylosian mint, the heartbeat of the chained god, and the curse of Delos.
Frank is able to obtain the first ingredient, the Pylosian Mint, from his shapeshifter relatives in Pylos. The others decide the chained god is Ares because the Spartans had a statue of him that was chained down to ensure they would win every war. Piper and Annabeth head out to the temple of Ares located in the ruins of Sparta, where the second ingredient, the Makhai, is located. They battle Mimas, and Piper manages to defeat him with a statue of Phobos. While sailing through the Aegean Sea, the Argo II is hit by a violent storm that Percy and Jason discover is caused by Kymopoleia, a daughter of Poseidon, who is working with Polybotes. Jason convinces Kymopoleia to switch sides and together they kill Polybotes; in return, he swears to become a Pontifex Maximus after the war and to give the first offering to her. After reaching Mykonos, Leo, Frank, and Hazel meet with Artemis and Apollo at the nearby Delos where, with Leo's offering, Apollo gives them the third ingredient, the cursed aster, and reveals that the Python at Delphi is blocking his ability of prophecy. He also reveals that his son, Asclepius, who is able to make the cure, is at Epidaurus. Upon leaving the island, Leo tells Hazel and Frank about his plan to sacrifice himself to defeat Gaea and inject himself with the cure afterwards. After obtaining the cure from Asclepius and finally reaching Athens, the demigods head to the Acropolis and battle the army of giants, whom they kill with the help of the gods, led by Zeus, after their split personalities are healed by the return of Athena Parthenos. However, the giants are able to injure Percy and Annabeth, whose blood wakes Gaea.
Meanwhile, Reyna Avila Ramírez-Arellano, Nico di Angelo, and Coach Hedge head back to Camp Half-Blood with the Athena Parthenos using shadow-travel. After reaching Pompeii, Reyna learns from her dreams that they are being hunted by a giant. At Évora, they are attacked by Lycaon and his aides. They defeat him and shadow-travel to San Juan, Reyna's homeland. Reyna is captured by the Hunters of Artemis, led by Thalia Grace, who are working together with the Amazons, led by Reyna's sister, Hylla. The giant, revealed to be Orion, appears and massacres both the Hunters and the Amazons, but before he could reach Reyna, she, Nico, and Hedge shadow-travel to South Carolina. Reyna reveals her life before Nico and Hedge while secretly being spied upon by Bryce Lawrence, a ruthless legacy who was once exiled from New Rome by Reyna before being reinstated by Octavian. He tries to execute Reyna for patricide when she reveals her "killing" her father's insane spirit, but is turned into a ghost by a furious Nico.
Arriving at Camp Half-Blood with the help of Pegasus and several of his brethren, Nico and Hedge head out to the camp while Reyna lands on the yacht Mi Amor in Long Island Sound. She is confronted by Orion and manages to kill him with the help of her mother, Bellona, and Athena. Nico meets up with several Greek demigods, including Will Solace, to hijack Camp Jupiter's onagers. Just when the two camps are about to clash, Reyna reveals the Athena Parthenos, ending the warfare before it even starts. However, Gaea suddenly rises and begins to attack the camp. The seven demigods, transported by Zeus, arrive and battle Gaea. Piper uses her charmspeak to make Gaea sleep, then Leo sacrifices himself with the help of a newly revived Festus while blasting Gaea with fire, which, coupled with an onager attack that Octavian accidentally launched himself from, killing him, finally destroys Gaea.
The two camps celebrate their victory at Camp Half-Blood together and stay together until the Romans' return to Camp Jupiter the next day. Nico decides to make Camp Half-Blood his home, and he also reveals his crush to Percy, but decides he has moved on. Jason, having been made a Pontifex Maximus, tells Piper that he will have to visit Camp Jupiter occasionally to make offerings. Percy and Annabeth also plan to move to Camp Jupiter to attend college after they graduate from high school. Meanwhile, Leo, who was thought to be dead, is revived by the physician's cure. He arrives at Ogygia to pick up Calypso, as he had promised when he first left her. No longer bound to her curse, Calypso leaves with Leo into the unknown.

Critical reception[edit]
The Blood of Olympus received mixed reviews. While some praised Riordan's writing, as well as the inclusion of two additional POVs, some doubts were expressed over certain loose ends. According to Kirkus Reviews, "The satisfyingly cataclysmic showdowns yield to peaceful resolution at last; here's hoping it holds this time."[4]
