A Hyperactive Workout for the Flying Squad is a 2005 album by Ocean Colour Scene (OCS) and their last album release to date. Hyperactive Workout was originally due to be released in September 2004 but Sanctuary Records requested the band record a live album instead and pushed the release back to 'early 2005' (the album finally arrived on the 21st March). The album was produced by Dave Eringa who has previously worked with The Manic Street Preachers and Massive Attack amongst others. The album was recorded at a hunting lodge near Glenrothes, Scotland. The album's unusual title was a phrase the band heard on BBC Radio 4 and decided they liked. Critical reception to the album generally agreed that the album would please OCS fans, although the album charted lower than previous albums at number 30 in the UK album chart compared to number 14 for the previous album North Atlantic Drift. A Hyperactive Workout for the Flying Squad was also the first studio album not to feature the bands original bass player, Damon Minchella, who left the band in 2003.
