    The boys are back with their first James Bond film for fresh reviewing. Much to Ben's disgust, Tom picked Pierce Brosnan's last film in the title role, 'Die Another Day' (2002) We must quickly apologise for the numbering of the episodes quoted in the podcast, as this is actually Episode 18, not 17. The boys made the same mistake in the previous podcast, so in quotation in the podcast, two Episode 16's exist. However, on iTunes and all our other sources of listening, the numbering system has been altered for our audience to find past episodes more easily!
