  • Yes, @stag, I did manage to find TND! My SE collection is now complete. :)
  • Patrick Macnee?
  • At last, some real news. I don't hate Purvis & Wade as much as most of the people around here. Iquite like them actually. What I'm wondering is, did they get the job now or have they been working on B25 already and it's just the public ann…

  • MGM says nothing about Bond 25 on conference call: https://hmssweblog.wordpress.com/2017/03/08/mgm-says-nothing-about-bond-25-on-conference-call/ And we were 100% sure we'd get even a tiny bit of news...
  • Casino games and slot machines? Seriously? This is ridiculous.

  • Well, I counted only complete HQs where M has an office. If I recall correctly, in TMWTGG we don't see that, instead we see a conference room. But you're right about MR! It's been years since I last saw it and had forgotten about that HQ. My bad,…
  • Scott Adkins is the first decent suggestion I've seen in this thread in ages. I don't love him and he probably wouldn't be my ideal choice, but at least he looks and sounds the part. I've no idea if he has the acting chops though. And at 5ft 10 - if…
  • Not exactly underground, more like alternative HQ. But, since it's been such a long time, I'll take it. For the record, we had submarine HQ in YOLT, Pyramid in TSWLM, Scottish HQ in TWINE and underground HQ in SF. Over to you, @Shark_Of_Largo.

  • @Birdleson is right. That's not it. Time for a clue. Think about places.

  • The helicopter is on its way to the UK: http://thebondbulletin.com/bond-25-bell-museum-helicopter-way-uk Apparently the Museum stressed again that the helicopter is for BOND 25, not because they assumed so, but because they were told so by the bu…

  • Nice! Thanks, @Thunderfinger. Do you happen to know which scenes were the ones shot near Goldeneye? Was it the beach with the classic Honey scene? As for the next one... Something that links YOLT, TSWLM, TWINE and SF.

  • I seem to recall that some scenes of Dr No were filmed near Goldeneye, Fleming's house. But I can't find any evidence with a quick online search.

  • Incredibly detailed figures & accessories. They even tried to replicate the colour scheme on Bond's watch strap, instead of having a generic watch. I'm really tempted to buy this.
  • You were thinking correctly, @Thunderfinger. It is indeed Robert Sterling. Appeared in TSWLM ('77) and QOS ('08). His face is Bond's face, therefore extremely familiar to us. But the name isn't so familiar. The floor is yours.
  • It did indeed. So it's not Big Ben.
  • Right! Sorry, I forgot about this one. I'll start with a pretty small clue and then gradually go to bigger ones if necessary. Here it goes: I have an extremely familiar face. But what's my name?
