Folks did say that Twist And Shout would have been a potentially good choice, not just because of the Twist thing but because the Beatles didn't actually write that one, therefore they wouldn't have had to pay Apple Corps to use it. Not sure who own…

The BBFC only reclassify films if they've been resubmitted so they won't have changed anything for GF, looks like they were just using it as a test. Funnily enough I just watched today's Calvin Dyson video where he talks a little about GE and TND b…

Yeah I think the only duff performance he puts in is YOLT, and even then he's not actually bad, he's just not giving the extra 10% we're used to from him: he's still better than most movie leads in that film. I think he's great in DAF and NSNA- he c…

As last week's ep had a Beatles theme, Big Finish are releasing their 2014 drama Fanfare For the Common Men as a podcast. It has the Doctor and Nyssa visit 1963 to find that the Beatles have been replaced by another band and was pretty fun as I reme…

Didn’t the Moonraker 747 crash there too?

I love Roger in a sort ironic way sometimes, but also I think he genuinely was a very skilled screen presence: you just don't get that successful by being rubbish. I recently watched LALD and there's that whole long scene in Bond's room where he's a…

Thought it was very good tonight. Not absolute top tier Moffat, but it does feel like the show is back properly, finally. Gatwa surprises me by making choices I don't expect, which is what I want in a Doctor. He's very very good in this ep.

Heh! It's okay, just joshing, but nice to know I've encouraged you to look again at the great man :D

Who would you cast as Joyce? Osman said they've got someone perfect for it I think.

Yeah Dr No is right at the bottom of my rankings, which I put together the other day thanks to that other thread here(!) It's not that I don't respect it as starting the whole thing and it's got some good moments, but purely on its own merits I don'…

Vic Armstrong's book is quite interesting to read on that front. He was actually a horse trainer first and foremost and although had done plenty of stunt doubling that was his main thing. He spent a long time training the horse to be comfortable wit…

Yeah it is funny how Dr No doesn't really show us the missiles which are at the heart of the plan. At least TND has the missile right there in the middle of everything. It's why I think Thunderball has a bit of a failure of a villain's plan: once t…

Toby Jones could be great. Jason Watkins maybe? Bill Nighy could be good: Q as a funky cool uncle.

Got to be GoldenEye for me too: I can see that the Spy boat is probably the single worst model shot (and I'm actually not a great fan of Atlantis: it always looks the size the model is to me, and the design doesn't help that because you can't get an…

I think most actors would have been better in the train scene than Green as it seemed written for a Diana Rigg type who could deliver playful badinage with a twinkle in her eye which Green visibly struggled with for me, but will agree to differ! :) …

She's amazing. I kind of dream of them keeping her on ice for a movie and using her for Vesper. Imagine her in the train scene. She'd be a very interesting M nowadays.
