    That's awesome, @Agent_99.

    I was watching for their 2017 version to come available, it's great you posted it. Maybe their most Christmas-y yet.

    Match it with @PropertyOfALady's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" and both really take off.

    Hello everyone. Saint Murdock here. I've got some tidbits for you all. As many of you know, I'm a bit of a collector when it comes to Bond artwork. Especially textless art. And I happen to be a huge fan of the 90's VHS/ Special Edition cover artwork for the Bond films. Over the years I've found 95% of that source artwork completely clean and textless. Though their were a couple I couldn't find sadly and that would be the UK versions of TMWTGG and Octopussy. However, thanks to the fine website http://www.007homevideo.com I was able to find some excellent scans of the VHS boxes themselves. And with a little bit of elbow grease and determination, I worked hard to make these textless cover artworks to add to my collection and I wish to share them with you. Happy holidays everyone. :)

    Still one of my favourite Moore films, I think I'll watch MR as my Christmas Bond film this year.

    It was my favourite Bond film as a child (hadn't seen them all at that stage of course!), and I still have a great affection for it.

    It's pure escapism Moore was in better films though MR's sets, score and just bizzareness makes it one of my favourite Bond films to watch.

    Agreed, it's a fun watch. Benign bizarre on show in spades!

    It's a great audio clip from simpler times, it captures Christmas R.I.P. Sir Roger Legend.

    Do you know how Christmas tree are grown?
    They need sunshine
    Sunshine can't grow Christmas trees alone
    They need raindrops
    Raindrops can't grow Christmas trees
    Here's the reason why
    In the winter rain will freeze
    And the trees will die
    Do you know how Christmas tree are grown?
    They need sunshine and raindrops
    Friendship and kindness
    And most of all they need love


    Do you know how Santa gets around?
    He needs snowflakes
    Snowflakes cannot do it all, I found
    He needs reindeer
    Reindeer, even tho' they try
    They need other things
    Once a year they have to fly
    And they don't have wings
    Do you know how Santa gets around?
    He needs snowflakes and reindeer
    Sunshine and raindrops
    Friendship and kindness
    And most of all he needs love


    Do you know how Christmas cards are made?
    They need pictures
    Pictures can't complete them, I'm afraid
    They need greetings
    Greetings say what's in your heart
    That's what they are for
    But, when loved ones are apart
    Christmas cards need more
    Do you know how Christmas cards are made?
    They need pictures and greetings
    Sunshine and raindrops
    Snowflakes and reindeer
    Friendship and kindness
    And most of all they need love

    One of the only ways children have had any part in the largely adult world of the Bond films.

    So today is the Lord @Dragonpol's window on the MI6 Advent Calendar and as we have finally arrived at Christmas Day I will try and make it as special as possible, with a series of posts throughout the day.

    So, first things first then:

    I want to wish all of our members, readers and lurkers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2018!

    Sure looks like he has his north pole somewhere, probably wants to give Sean a white Christmas... I hear his snowballs ring....
