    James Bond will always return... and so will The 00 Files. After watching No Time To Die a combined sixteen times, the hosts of this podcast deem it time to share their first thoughts about the movie. Be warned, there will be spoilers. Should this have been a two-parter? How do you charge a bionic eye? Did Madeleine spend her youth shooting people left and right? Why does Don dislike every Daniel Craig gun barrel sequence? Was the bomb in Vesper's tomb designed to kill Bond, or just give him a nasty case of tinnitus? Why does the George Baker Selection keep popping up? Is M. the real villain of this movie (and why is he so thirsty)? All this and more will be discussed in this first, quick look into the twenty-fifth James Bond movie No Time To Die.

Maxwell famously ran about two dozen agents, uncovering many secrets and plots threatening the UK. In “Our Man In New York” (2019) Henry describes the Great Debate (1940 - 1941): do the USA enter the second World War or not? An MI6 agent, Bill Stephenson, was sent to the US to make sure they did. And Stephenson succeeded! Don and Henry chat about both these books, discussing Maxwell's personal and professional life. How he went from an undercover agent in the British Fascisti to an extraordinary agent runner during WWII. And also, how Stephenson managed to pull off a seemingly impossible task, influencing polls, creating fake news and having access to people in very high places!

    In 1942, during World War II, lieutenant commander Ian Fleming, personal assistant to Director of Naval Intelligence Admiral John Godfrey, suggested that the British really needed a new and special kind of commando to steal secrets from the Germans. It was the beginning of 30AU, a group of intelligence pinching commandos, operating behind enemy lines. Author Nicholas Rankin describes in his book Ian Fleming's Commandos (published in 2011) the journey 30AU went on: from just an idea, to their first mission, through North Africa and South Europe, to freeing France and destroying Nazi Germany. Don interviews Nicholas on his book and they discuss some of the key elements that led to 30AU's successes. They explore how Fleming's war time experiences have influenced his James Bond novels and how 007 himself is the epitome of British heroism. The podcast starts and ends with an audio clip from Nicholas' book narrated by Nicholas himself. https://www.faber.co.uk/author/nicholas-rankin If you like our podcast, please share it with others.
