  • //I guess it's fair comment that she seems to get more of the opprobrium than MGW (when he should be held equally culpable) these days, but I think that's because of the perception that she's the driving force while he is winding down to retirement …
  • FWIW, a definition of the word hiatus. //a pause or gap in a sequence, series, or process.//

  • re: often-repeated "slit my wrists" will be repeated when Bond 25 comes out. Essentially that's the basis for this Daily Beast story, "Why Grumpy Daniel Craig Shouldn't Return as James Bond." http://www.thedailybeast.com/why-grumpy-daniel-crai…

  • In 2014, there was a gathering in Los Angeles to celebrate the show's 50th anniversary. One of the highlights was a live performance of UNCLE music. A CD with that music is coming out. https://hmssweblog.wordpress.com/2017/07/10/u-n-c-l-e-jazz…

  • re: Craig/Bond's birthdate....I think there was a reference in SPECTRE (the documents that survived Skyfall) giving his birthdate as 1971.
