Would you rather own a Faberge egg OR a Stradivarius cello?

    Brown is an old-fashioned color for a suit.

    The grey Goldfinger suit, I love it.
    Probably the best suit of the series, along with Daniel's navy three piece suit at the end of Casino in my opinion

    I agree. The grey suit is iconic.

    It's not a suit.

    It's worse then. Brown with brown?

    The brown sports coat with light brown pants, for sure! Always wanted a sports coat similar to that myself, but I haven't been able to find one/have one made.

    I wouldn't agree with the above comment that brown is an old-fashioned colour for a suit – or in this case, a sports coat. All of these examples look really great:

    Craig rocks a couple of brown-tinted suits in Spectre and NTTD and looks great to my eyes, especially the Sp one.

    Lets have a battle of the Connery attire! I think Goldfinger features Connery in some splendid attire.

    Would you rather wear the Switzerland outfit OR the Kentucky outfit?

    Switzerland...brown sports coat with light brown pants.

    Kentucky...Blue three piece suit a classic look!

    I prefer grey to brown so it'll have to be the grey suit.

    Well in a question that contains Switzerland and Kentucky I would normally always pick the former, however here we have a brown ensemble that would make me look 75 years old vs a very stylish and much fresher looking grey ensemble, so I'll pick the latter.

    As for the previous question, the prospect of going to Italy alone is enough for me to choose that one, though Tania's presence makes it even better.

    Yeah, the Kentucky grey, definitely. The Switzerland photos look fantastic in b/w, but the reality of the brown doesn't quite maintain the effect, tbh. For me, anyway.

    A few times in the series Bond has found himself in a dangerous place with a female. Lets see which dangerous place would you rather find yourself. This one might have a tinge of wanting to be in either situation, but try to think which one would you prefer.

    Would you rather be stuck in a burning elevator with Stacey Sutton OR stuck on a damaged airplane with Jinx?

    In the elevator:

    Stacy yelling "Jaaaaaaaames!"
    Me: "Who's James? My name isn't James!"

    So I guess I prefer being with Jinx.

    Ha, here's a difficult question. Ordinarily I'd go for the plane, and as annoying as the character Jinx is (mind you, if there would've been a competition of 'most annoying character played by the sexiest woman, she'd definately win) as I can fly a bit, and elevators aren't really my thing. But an Antonov 124 is something entirely different, especially as it seems to be the flying Dutchman from the skies, continuing flying despite not beeing able to do so for quite some time. But if the exit is the same as in the films, I guess I'll go for Jinx and the helicopter-drop.

    Jinx. I seem to recall she said something about going down together...

    Jinx. She had a good sense of humor about dying that would make the moment much more pleasant, while Stacey would just keep screeching.

    Jinx

    * Stacey would just keep screaming, more of a liability than an asset 😅.
    * And I wouldn't mind being in plane even if it's 'going down', a good aerial experience with beautiful views below and the skies. Elevator is just dreadful and duff, let alone of it being in fire.

    Edit: Elevator is also claustrophobic, so, a very no for me.

    I would save Stacey.

    And equally I would save Jinx. So there's that.

    Okay that was perhaps too one-sided.

    Lets try another one that might require a bit more of a challenge:

    Would you rather eat at Pussfeller's OR eat at Madame Brasserie's in the Eiffel Tower?

    In one you have casual dining by the sea and beach. You might hear Byron Lee serenading you. In the other, you get to see a beautiful butterfly show and have French cuisine.

    So where do you prefer to break bread?

    I'm not so keen on heights and I'd like a bit of sun right now rather than torrential rain, so have to go for Pussfeller's.

    Oh I've always loved those tucked-away places where local people go, so it's pussfellers' without contest.

    Me too! Not that I don't appreciate the other kind of place, but my friend Achille told me he had a fly in his soup... unforgivable.

    Pussfeller's, you can dine, you can dance, you can unwind through the beach side with al fresco ambience, with pure local and natural foods and delicacies, and for sure, they're quite affordable.

    A fun one, would you rather listen to Sir Sean sing OR Tim sing?





    Tim and Mae West sing a 70's classic!

    Sir Sean, I still liked that My Pretty Irish Girl, and that Underneath The Mango Tree.

    Mind you, Sir Sean had his own rendition of In My Life by The Beatles.

    Yeah but stay away from that room in the back @SIS_HQ.
