Very much a fan of both of Dalton's.
ReplyDeleteMy Great Aunt and Uncle lived in Gibraltar for a while. They were pestered by a monkey with a hair lip.
ReplyDeleteThat is all.
Now you're talking
ReplyDeleteNew Moneypenny
ReplyDeleteSee now, that's what MI6 calls a safe house.
ReplyDeleteFeels like a very unconventional Bond girl choice. I approve.
ReplyDeleteSpendid, Q-branch have splashed out an a label machine.
ReplyDeleteI do like the Volante. A very worthy successor to the DB5.
ReplyDeleteDalton definitely does the angry vengeful side of Bond the best so far.
ReplyDeleteEven if he did just shoot Gimli.
Delete"I've been such a fool!"
ReplyDelete"...we both have." (i.e. "Yes, you have.")
Makes me sad that we never got more of Dalton.
ReplyDeleteI think Bond's patience with Kara is starting to wear thin.
ReplyDeleteKara doing a sterling job there keeping the plane straight and level.
ReplyDeleteIt's weaving around like a pissed owl.
Oh...a mountain. In fairness, they do sneak up on you.
DeletePushkin is a worthy successor to Gogol.
ReplyDeleteFavourites so far...
