Ok, so... Where can I watch it online? Or can I buy it somewhere? I've always ached for it to come out in dvd, along with James Bond Jr. I know it's a silly cartoon, but I'd love to check them out.

    It's only available on VHS as far as I know on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Goldeneye-The-Secret-Life-Fleming/dp/0764002236/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377869833&sr=8-1&keywords=Ian+Fleming:+Goldeneye+Charles+Dance

    I'm itching for it to be released on DVD.

    We need a petition!

    It was available on DVD from the Daily Mail here in the UK in 2007. You should be able to buy copies on eBay or somewhere. I got my copy of the film at the time.

    Yes, it is. The script for this Anglia TV film from 1989 was taken from John Pearson's biography of Ian Fleming.

    Charles Dance would have been a great M or Defence Minister or Foreign Secretary in a Bond film.

    I never bothered to finish watching the flick. I should probably do that one day. It wasn't too bad or anything like that. It was on youtube the last time I checked.

    Funny, I always thought the same thing, after seeing him in Starter for 10. About him as M, I mean.

    Someone posted a great 10 minute clip of Goldeneye (1989) here:

    Well it was based on John Pearson's biography of Ian Fleming, so yes, that accounts for its accuracy. It stands apart from the rest of the biographies, though Bondmaker (2005) is very good too.

    Charles Dance made an appearance in For Your Eyes Only, didn't he? He played Claus, but I can't remember offhand who Claus was.

    He's a henchman of Loque. Gets shot in the back with a harpoon shortly after Lisl is murdered.

    Correct, and John Glen complained that he couldn't hold a gun straight. Wonder what ever happened to that little known actor...?

    Ah right, cheers. Presumed he was something to do with Locque.

    I would say no, the script and actors may be fine, but it looks dreadful, and that drags it down ever so much.

    I really enjoyed Bondmaker. I thought it was a brilliant illustration of the creative process.

    Busy with Game of Thrones nowadays. Back in 2008, Charles Dance was one of my first choices to play M.

    Well, in its defence it was made for TV so there was no film budget to draw on.
