Music video
The "Lost in Space" music video was directed by Andrew Douglas and edited by Tim Thornton-Allan at Marshall Street Editors.[6] It opens with the band in Rio de Janeiro, with prominent images of the Christ the Redeemer statue; at the end, they return to England, where a long panning shot of the then-recently completed Angel of the North sculpture (which is also seen on the single cover) closes the video.
