Bond, Beatles and Drums.
Watching and absolutely LOVING Quantum Of Solace, this weekend. My highlight is the DC-3 sequence, but also the Aston, Tosca, Siena, Mathis, and some excellent lines of dialogue. I don’t know how it might have been without the writer’s strike, but there’s much to love already.

This week’s BBC Mastermind had a contestant answering questions about the Brosnan 007 films. I only got seven questions correct. #BadBondFan I need to do some serious rewatching.

BOND: “You could run a small government from here.”
LARGO: “No, I could run a large government from here.”
Never Say Never Again definitely has its strong moments.

As a big Rocky II fan and regular listener to the podcast, this made for a wonderful listen. Love that they share my affection for the Redemption theme on the soundtrack. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/s...

This is pretty cool - a modern spy(ish) audio drama on the BBC. One for the le Carre fans. And it’s got Kevin McNally from TSWLM as the lead.

Excellent article from @ianleslie.bsky.social about how joking around developed the identities of the Beatles, Elvis and Radiohead. I’m excited about his new John&Paul book.

Found a Spectre Omega watch face for my fitness tracker. That’s one unexpected way to get the watch you’d like.

Back in 2022 had it from *very* reliable sources that Anthology was the next big project on the cards for The Beatles.
I suspect in 2025 it’s finally going to happen…

Realised that my favourite Bond film (OHMSS), Beatles album (Let It Be) and Doctor Who Story (The War Games) - my three biggest entertainment obsessions over the years - are all outputs from 1969.

Bond using an oar to knock a baddie down in OHMSS and then to collapse the boat over the baddie might be my favourite fight move from 007. Maybe tied with using the towel on the Manticore in GE. Love it.

Just listened to the last of my unplayed episodes of @nothingisrealpod.bsky.social and I’ve loved every second of it. It’s like an audio encyclopaedia or learning course about the Beatles, run by your favourite teachers who muck about a bit in the lessons. Am now entering the grief curve. #LetItBe
