Question: What is the answer for the question: What are the full names of the two people who are notified that Dr. Alexandre Mannette is not dead? from the following article ? Lucie Manette and her servant and companion Miss Pross (Edna May Oliver) are informed by banker Mr. Jarvis Lorry that her father, Dr. Alexandre Mannette is not dead, but has been a prisoner in the Bastille for eighteen years before finally being rescued. She travels with Mr. Lorry to Paris to take her father to her home in England. Dr. Manette has been cared for by a former servant, Ernest Defarge, and his wife. The old man's mind has given way during his long ordeal, but Lucie's tender care begins to restore his sanity. On the return trip across the English Channel, Lucie meets Charles Darnay, a French aristocrat who, unlike his tyrannical uncle, the Marquis de St. Evremonde, is sympathetic to the plight of the oppressed and impoverished French masses. He has denounced his uncle, relinquished his title and going to England to begin a new life. The vindictive Marquis has Darnay framed for treason, but he is saved by the highly proficient but cynical lawyer Sydney Carton. Carton goes drinking with Barsad, the main prosecution witness, and tricks him into admitting that he lied. When Barsad is called to testify, he is horrified to discover that Carton is one of the defense attorneys, and suddenly realizes that his testimony was wrong. Darnay is acquitted. Carton is thanked by Lucie, who had been a witness at the trial. He quickly falls in love with her, but comes to realize that it is hopeless. Carton is jealous of Darnay and the obvious attraction Darnay and lucie have for each other. Nevertheless, Carton and Lucie become close friends. Lucie and Darnay are eventually married and they have a daughter, also named Lucie.
Answer: Miss Pross
[Q]: What is the answer for the question: What Saint-Saens opera had a biblical subject? from the following article ? For a French composer of the 19th century, opera was seen as the most important type of music. Saint-Saens's younger contemporary and rival, Massenet, was beginning to gain a reputation as an operatic composer, but Saint-Saens, with only the short and unsuccessful La princesse jaune staged, had made no mark in that sphere. In February 1877, he finally had a full-length opera staged. His four-act "drame lyricque", Le timbre d'argent ("The Silver Bell"), to Jules Barbier's and Michel Carre's libretto, reminiscent of the Faust legend, had been in rehearsal in 1870, but the outbreak of war halted the production. The work was eventually presented by the Theatre Lyrique company of Paris; it ran for eighteen performances.The dedicatee of the opera, Albert Libon, died three months after the premiere, leaving Saint-Saens a large legacy "To free him from the slavery of the organ of the Madeleine and to enable him to devote himself entirely to composition". Saint-Saens, unaware of the imminent bequest, had resigned his position shortly before his friend died. He was not a conventional Christian, and found religious dogma increasingly irksome; he had become tired of the clerical authorities' interference and musical insensitivity; and he wanted to be free to accept more engagements as a piano soloist in other cities. After this he never played the organ professionally in a church service, and rarely played the instrument at all. He composed a Messe de Requiem in memory of his friend, which was performed at Saint-Sulpice to mark the first anniversary of Libon's death; Charles-Marie Widor played the organ and Saint-Saens conducted. In December 1877, Saint-Saens had a more solid operatic success, with Samson et Dalila, his one opera to gain and keep a place in the international repertoire. Because of its biblical subject, the composer had met many obstacles to its presentation in France, and through Liszt's influence the premiere was given at Weimar in a German translation. Although the work eventually became an...

input: Please answer the following: What is the answer for the question: What record label was made especially for Connie Talbot? from the following article ? Connie Talbot entered the public eye appearing, aged six, on the first series of the reality programme Britain's Got Talent, reaching the final. After briefly recording with Sony BMG, Talbot was signed to Rainbow Recording Company, an offshoot of the label Rhythm Riders made specifically for her. To produce Over the Rainbow, Talbot worked with John Arnison, then-manager to Gabrielle and Billy Ocean, and Marc Marot, a former managing director of Island Records. It was produced and mixed by Simon Hill and Rob May. A recording schedule was worked out so that Talbot could continue with her normal school activities while recording the album in her aunt Vicky's spare bedroom, which her mother described as "a better solution" than the one offered by Sony BMG, "which has not robbed her of her childhood". Talbot said that "it was just amazing that we could do it in my auntie's house". Arnison and Marot asked the Talbot family to "write down a list of the songs that Connie would sing at her birthday party" to help choose the track listing, and then "thought long and hard" about including more adult songs on the album. Talbot herself insisted that they should.The final version of Over the Rainbow was recorded at Olympic Studios, on 12 October 2007. Arnison described the recording process by saying that Talbot "hadn't sung nursery rhymes; she'd always sung classic tracks. So it was actually quite an easy task to make the record". The album was released on 26 November 2007, with an initial pressing of 50,000 copies. However, an additional 120,000 had to be created after the album sold out in a matter of days.Over the Rainbow was re-released on 18 June 2008, with the new version being made available for pre-order in May. The re-release featured three new tracks to replace the Christmas-themed songs on the original album. The new tracks were made available from Talbot's official website so that those who bought the original need not buy the re-release. Talbot's cover of Bob Marley's "Three Little Birds" was released as a...
