    "Buy me a pint". Has Bond ever drunk a pint? He really lowers his standards when out with the Northern 00s

    Kinda giving the Sean Bean reveal away a bit by having him listed first in the titles.

    I think I read somewhere that Tina Turner turned down the customary women of a new bond film Playboy offer. She'd have been 56.

    It is at this point that I guess I have to be honest with myself and admit that I clearly have a thing for girls with short brown hair.

      It's the sort of cameo where it's difficult to imagine how it happened. I like it.

    If you're not tied up and actually have the use of your hands...and need to eject, that button isn't really in a very convenient place.

    We have a new top henchman. You could held on to this Jaws if you hadn't have turned into such a little bitch in your second film.

    Bit of an unnecessary dig at the widower there.
