I also found this. Michael Chow and Mrs. Chow:
Well done, Michael Chow.
Wow, Vanessa Rano (aka Wife #4) is a lot younger than he is (30 vs. his 80). Apparently, they got married in February of 2019 after two years of dating.
All the best to the new couple, but I hope he’s got a good prenup.
Just sweethearts, then?

Interesting tidbit of info @Thunderfinger
I just realized that apart from DN, GE is the only Bond film that has introduced a new Bond and a new M. All the other introductions of a new actor to a role has had the advantage of having the other role be someone who was already in the role. (is this making any sense!) Let me show it below better.
DN Connery M Lee
OHMSS Lazenby M Lee
LALD Moore M Lee
OP Moore M Brown
TLD Dalton M Brown
GE Brosnan M Dench since the series began the first time a new Bond has also had a new M.
CR Craig M Dench
SF Craig M Fiennes
Interesting to see that Lee was the M for 3 Bonds the most in the series. He played the role from 1962 till 1979 (11 films) so I guess we shouldn't be surprised.
Brown although only in 4 films had 2 different Bonds.
Dench had 7 films and played against 2 different Bonds.
Fiennes has only had 2 films and 1 Bond. Will that change post B25?
I like this one. I wrote a little “essay“ about the connectuon between Bond and water in the films, but didn't think about this fact.
I like the fact that Bondfilms usually don't contain scenes with rain, except for the Craig movies (it rains in every Craig film). First time you see rain in a Bondfilm was in OHMSS in Berne. Second time was in MR during a phone call of General Gogol.
Interesting. Didn't know that about MR. Is it actually raining in OHMSS, or has it stopped?
Can be taken phonetically as the opposite meaning of
It's a bit strange: First, you see the car with Bond, Tracy and Draco passing the “Bärengraben“ (bears) and driving over the bridge: no rain, quite nice weather. Then they arrive at Gumbolds place: it really rains a bit when the car is stopping (windscreen wipers are moving) . It seems that the rain stops at this moment, because noone around has an umbrella or wears a hood (sorry for the bad sentence). The distance between the Bärengraben and Gumbolds office would be around 3 minutes by car...the changing weather wouldn't be possible in reality, but in the film (where we don't know the duration of the car drive) it is possible of course.
@w2bond . Sorry I have to correct myself. MR was on TV last night in HD. I checked the phone scene with Gogol. Surprisingly, I had to realise that we don't see rain outside of the window, but snow!! It really looks more like rain on my old DVD.
Corrected trivia: MR has a scene with snow.
The first MR script had scenes in the Himalaya, where there would have been lots more snow.
I don t know. The same script also had scenes in India and Paris (Eiffel Tower) that were reused in OP and AVTAK. The acrostar jet was first meant to appear in MR, too.
At the very end, in the concert venue.
Was the minister there ?
Blimey,shows the last time I watched that film - thanks Thundy !
Not really sure after all. Maybe it s just M and Gogol.
I think it is just the two.
It doesn't make sense to have Freddie Gray there,Gogol and M were opposite numbers before.
I had to check on Youtube. You are right.
