Our James Bond project is complete, now let our Sherlock Holmes project begin. Rob and Michael are joined by Pax and Jacob Bean-Watson in order to explore the Great Detective as portrayed on Film and TV. We're not taking a methodical approach, but just taking turns picking whatever adaptation strikes our fancies. Rob is up first and chose the 1976 TV movie, Sherlock Holmes in New York starring Roger Moore as Holmes, Patrick Macnee as Watson, John Huston as Moriarty, and Charlotte Rampling as Irene Adler.
In this edition of our James Bond retrospective, Zach and Mike breakdown Roger Moore's first outing as the titular secret agent and sip on a cocktail inspired by the movies villain. Cheers!

Pourquoi aller au Festival de Cannes quand on est artiste mais qu'on n'a rien à y vendre ? C'est ce que doit se dire Serge Gainsbourg en ce mois de mai 1974 où malgré vingt années de métier et un unique immense tube international en 1969, il n'est toujours pas une star. Ses récents albums Histoire de Melody Nelson et Vu de l'extérieur n'ont pas marché du tout et ça lui a fait mal. Il était pourtant sûr d'avoir fait œuvre de nouveauté, de culot. On a beaucoup entendu Je venu te dire que je m'en vais à la radio, mais c'est tout. Aucune reconnaissance du public si ce n'est ceux qui élèvent la voix pour dire qu'ils n'aiment pas Gainsbourg, ce gros dégueulasse. Par contre, pour Jane, tout va bien. C'est un peu elle qui fait bouillir la marmite à leur domicile, rue de Verneuil. Les disques qu'il lui écrit marchent bien et surtout, Jane est devenue une star du cinéma : trois films l'an dernier et cinq cette année dont un actuellement en tournage, pas loin de Cannes, avec Pierre Richard (et qui entre parenthèses va connaître un succès considérable). Alors Cannes, c'est plutôt une évidence pour Monsieur Birkin, comme certains commencent à dire pour se moquer de lui. En ce mois de mai, un petit tour lui fera du bien pour se regonfler le moral. Il faut dire que l'émission de télé que les Carpentier lui ont, enfin, proposée a été un fiasco d'audience. Ce soir du Top à Serge Gainsbourg, il avait beau avoir convié Françoise Hardy et Jacques Dutronc, et puis Jane aussi, les gens ont regardé l'autre chaîne. Et pour cette majorité qui n'a pas regardé, la presse donne le coup de grâce : Pourquoi invite-t-on Serge Gainsbourg ? Il n'a aucun talent, il est sale et mal rasé.Et donc, ce photographe qui reconnaît le couple Gainsbourg Birkin et lui demande de poser devant le Carlton aux couleurs du nouveau James Bond avec Roger Moore, ça lui fait du bien, à Serge. Son sourire radieux et spontané fait plaisir à voir. Et qu'est-ce qu'elle est belle, Jane, comme ça, nature, avec son jean et son panier de courses en osier qu'elle vient de rendre à la mode. Et si on faisait d'autres photos sur la plage ?Gainsbourg ne se fait pas prier. D'autres photographes se joignent à la séance improvisée, des vacanciers s'attroupent autour d'eux, tu as vu, c'est Jane Birkin, c'est Gainsbourg. Serge s'en trouve un peu requinqué, et ça tombe bien, en buvant un café dix minutes plus tôt, il est tombé sur un article de Nice-Matin qui disait : Personne de sensé n'aime Serge Gainsbourg. Il est dépravé, méprisant et chante comme un drogué, régurgitant des chansons que personne ne comprend.Alors, invité à un déjeuner au restaurant, Gainsbourg a enfilé son fameux veston sombre à fines lignes. Assis en bout de table avec devant lui un pot de langues de belles-mères, ces fameuses plantes à la mode en forme de couteau dressé vers le ciel, un producteur vient s'asseoir à côté de lui : Dites, j'ai vu votre émission. J'ai senti que la réalisation venait de vous. Le jour où vous voulez réaliser un film, venez me voir. Gainsbourg remercie dans un souffle, en écrasant sa Gitane, il sait ce que vaut une promesse de festival. Mais bon, Jane va repartir tourner ce fameux film La moutarde me monte au nez, alors, pourquoi pas, écrire et réaliser un film. Ainsi va le Festival de Cannes …

Yep, here's another Bond review. On to Roger Moore!
Spying tends to be a fairly secretive game, for obvious reasons. So eyebrows have been quizzically raised (a bit like Roger Moore's 007) following the naming of the woman apparently favourite to become the new chief of MI6. This week, David Yelland and Simon Lewis explore the murky world of leaks. Who benefits from them, why are they done and just how damaging can they be?They'll explain why leaking is far from victimless and reveal their own experiences of turning on the news and realising someone is out to get you.And in the extended episode on BBC Sounds, have the Beckham's lost control of their PR? With pages of newspaper coverage devoted to their supposed family rift, David and Simon look at when two PR tribes go to war.Producer: Duncan Middleton Editor: Sarah Teasdale Executive Producer: William Miller Music by Eclectic Sounds A Raconteur Studios production for BBC Radio 4
25 years after The Saint with Roger Moore first appeared on television, an attempt at a revival was made. As you might imagine since this is pilot month, the reboot was unsuccessful. It was the first pilot ever shown on CBS's Summer Playhouse series. Despite not making past the pilot stage, the show received an overwhelmingly positive review from the home audience.
This week we return to the world of Bond with Roger Moore's debut outing in Live and Let Die.
In episode 14 of my 007 series, I'm diving into A View to a Kill — the final James Bond film starring Roger Moore — and pairing it with the bold and sweet Maestro Dobel Pavito Blanco Tequila.
With word of Amazon taking over the James Bond series, Max, James, and Ryan sat down with friend of the pod and guy who recently watched All of the Bond films, Noah, to see if Roger Moore's Bond is as bad as everyone says he is. With the help the GBBV Patreons the podcast settles in for a Long Long Boat chase in Live and Let Die, which isn't the most racist Bond film, but it's up there. Put your faith in the cars and inflate your way to 2:03:40 for the post movie wrap up on all things, Live and Let Die, the multiple accompanying beverages, and a brief run down of some of the other Bond Movie Plots and how this installment fits into them.Like what we're doing?

Is Octopussy campy fun or a franchise misfire? Let's get into it.And to pair with all that wild energy? We're sipping on Pikesville Straight Rye Whiskey — a bold 110-proof Kentucky rye that's spicy, complex, and perfect for a spirited Bond adventure.Find out if it's a sipper worth stocking or if it's better left behind like a rogue Soviet general.Pour yourself a dram and join the conversation as we talk Bond, bourbon (well, rye), and cinematic spectacle.

In this episode of Drinks and a Movie, we're going shaken, not stirred with a dive into the 12th James Bond film, For Your Eyes Only (1981), starring Roger Moore in one of his most grounded and underrated performances as 007. We're ditching gadgets for grit as Bond embarks on a Cold War-era mission filled with ski chases, underwater action, and crossbows?!We'll explore how this entry attempted to bring the franchise back down to Earth after the space-age spectacle of Moonraker and why For Your Eyes Only remains a standout for Bond fans.But first, we kick things off with a review of the Angels Envy Triple Oak whiskey – a limited-edition Kentucky straight bourbon finished in three different oak casks. Is it worthy of a secret agent's palate, or just another overhyped pour? Pour a glass and tune in for Bond trivia, bold opinions, and bourbon breakdowns.
This episode of Drinks and a Movie is blasting off into one of the most outrageous Bond adventures ever—Moonraker (1979). Roger Moore's 007 goes from Venice to space in a spectacle filled with laser battles, deadly centrifuge tests, and the return of the unstoppable Jaws. It's over-the-top, it's ridiculous, and it's pure late-'70s Bond fun.For a movie this bold, I had to pair it with a whiskey that packs just as much punch—the Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Rye from the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. Uncut, unfiltered, and full of intense spice and caramel sweetness, this rye whiskey hits hard, much like the G-forces in Drax's centrifuge.Join me as I break down Bond's most out-of-this-world adventure while sipping on a rye that's as powerful as a Moonraker laser blast. Buckle up, pour yourself a glass, and let's talk Bond. Cheers!
In this episode of Drinks and a Movie, we're diving into one of the most stylish and action-packed Bond films of the Roger Moore era—The Spy Who Loved Me (1977). From the unforgettable ski jump opener to the sleek Lotus Esprit submarine car and the menacing presence of Jaws, this film is peak '70s Bond spectacle. But what's a Bond discussion without a drink in hand?This week, I'm pairing the film with the 2023 George T. Stagg from the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. This uncut and unfiltered bourbon is as bold and complex as 007 himself—rich with dark caramel, oak, and spice, delivering a long finish worthy of a Bond villain's monologue. Join me as I break down the espionage, the iconic Carly Simon theme, and, of course, this powerhouse of a bourbon. Grab a glass and tune in—because nobody does it better. Cheers!
Bond. Bourbon. And one deadly assassin. In this episode of Drinks and a Movie, we're taking aim at The Man with the Golden Gun (1974), Roger Moore's second outing as 007. With Christopher Lee as the iconic Scaramanga, a funhouse duel, and some of the wildest stunts in Bond history, this one's got plenty to talk about. But is it a hidden gem or a misfire?To pair with this high-stakes adventure, I'm sipping on Colonel E.H. Taylor Small Batch, a Bottled-in-Bond beauty from Buffalo Trace's Mash Bill #1. How does this bourbon hold up against other classics? Tune in for my full tasting notes and Bond breakdown! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and drop a comment—who's your favorite Bond villain?
On this episode of Drinks and a Movie, we're diving into Live and Let Die (1973), Roger Moore's explosive debut as James Bond. From voodoo villains to high-speed boat chases, this film is packed with action, style, and one of the franchise's most unique soundtracks. But does it hold up today?And what better way to pair a Bond flick than with a top-shelf bourbon? This week, I'm sipping on Rock Hill Farms, a single-barrel gem from Buffalo Trace's Mash Bill #2. How does it compare to other favorites from the distillery? Tune in for tasting notes, film discussion, and all the Bond-worthy vibes!

From NAACP Secretary to Bond Girl: The Groundbreaking Story of Gloria Hendry" On the latest episode of Trey's Table I'm unpacking the incredible journey of Gloria Hendry a woman who went from typing legal briefs for the NAACP during the Civil Rights Movement to making history as the first Black Bond girl in Live and Let Die (1973). Why You Need to Know Her Story - Started her career as a legal secretary for the NAACP working on landmark civil rights cases - Became a Playboy model and blaxploitation icon in films like *Black Caesar* - Shattered glass ceilings as James Bond's first Black love interest a massive deal in 1973 The Censorship No One Talks About Her role was revolutionary, but not everyone was ready for it. When Live and Let Die screened in apartheid South Africa all her romantic scenes with Roger Moore were cut completely because the regime couldn't handle a Black woman and white man in love. ###

Avec une connaissance approfondie de l'univers 007, Mathieu Alterman nous guide à travers les différentes interprétations de l'agent secret, de Sean Connery à Daniel Craig. Il met en lumière les chefs-d'œuvre de la saga, comme le premier film Doctor No, le sublime Goldfinger ou encore le moderne Casino Royale. Mais il n'hésite pas non plus à pointer du doigt les épisodes plus décevants, comme le déguisement controversé de Sean Connery en japonais dans On ne vit que deux fois, ou l'absurde intrigue de L'Homme au pistolet d'or avec Roger Moore.L'animateur nous fait rire et nous surprend tour à tour, avec son ton passionné et son sens de l'humour. Il n'a pas sa langue dans sa poche pour juger certains choix scénaristiques et réalisateurs qui, selon lui, trahissent l'essence même de James Bond. Mais au-delà des critiques, on sent son attachement indéfectible pour ce personnage culte, qu'il considère comme un ami de la famille.Mathieu, avec son expertise, nous plonge dans l'univers fascinant de James Bond, explorant les nuances de chaque interprétation et les moments emblématiques de la saga. Il nous fait découvrir les trésors cachés et les faux pas de la série, tout en partageant son amour inconditionnel pour l'agent secret.Notre équipe a utilisé un outil d'Intelligence artificielle via les technologies d'Audiomeans© pour accompagner la création de ce contenu écrit.Distribué par Audiomeans.

fWotD Episode 2883: The Spy Who Loved Me (novel) Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 27 March 2025 is The Spy Who Loved Me (novel).The Spy Who Loved Me is the ninth novel and tenth book in Ian Fleming's James Bond series, first published by Jonathan Cape on 16 April 1962. It is the shortest and most sexually explicit of Fleming's novels, as well as the only Bond novel told in the first person. Its narrator is a young Canadian woman, Viv Michel. Bond himself does not appear until two-thirds of the way through the book, arriving at precisely the right moment to save Viv from being raped and murdered by two criminals. Fleming wrote a prologue to the novel giving the character Viv credit as a co-author.The story uses a recurring motif of Saint George against the dragon, and contains themes of power, and the moral ambiguity between those acting with good and evil intent. As the narrator who tells her own backstory and expresses her emotions and motives, Viv has been described as the best realised and most rounded female character in the Bond canon. The reviewers were largely negative, with some expressing a desire for a return to the structure and form of the previous Bond novels. In a letter to his editor after the reviews had been published, Fleming reflected that "the experiment has obviously gone very much awry".Following the negative reactions of critics, Fleming attempted to suppress elements of the novel: he blocked a paperback edition in the United Kingdom and, when he sold the film rights to Harry Saltzman and Albert R. Broccoli, they were permitted to use the title but none of the plot of the book. In the 1977 film The Spy Who Loved Me, the tenth in the Eon Productions series, only the title and the character of one of the villains, Jaws, is taken from the book. The film was the third to star Roger Moore as Bond. A heavily adapted version of The Spy Who Loved Me appeared in The Daily Express newspaper in daily comic strip format between 1967 and 1968; a British paperback edition of the novel was published after Fleming's death.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:59 UTC on Thursday, 27 March 2025.For the full current version of the article, see The Spy Who Loved Me (novel) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Matthew.

New Hampshire Unscripted talks with the performance arts movers and shakers
Well it was apparently “take a friend to work day” today at WKXL's NH Unscripted as I had the privilege of sitting with Gary Locke and Greg Gaskell. Topics covered ranged from the tv show “Severance” to a fundraiser for the Hatbox Theatre happening in April to Gary trying to convince us he was once a body double for Roger Moore. (We had a hard time believing it as well.) Greg is a crazy talented writer, especially comedic, and we talked a lot about what he's currently invested in and then he asks Gary and I what roles or types of roles we still be interested in taking on. Some other friends get honorably mentioned as well: Aaron Compagna, Alex Picard, Wayne Asbury, Emily Karel and more!
Infamous title aside, Octopussy was the first of two Bond movies released in 1983; the other being the unofficial Never Say Never Again.

Cooper and Nolan are bringing back Bond this week when they cover Roger Moore's first turn as 007 in LIVE AND LET DIE! Seeing as this movie - ahem - borrows heavily from the Blaxploitation film genre, it feels appropriate that the guys are talking about it during Black History Month. From the stereotypical occupation of main villain Dr. Kananga, to the flamboyant 70s style of Baron Samedi, to the less than flattering portrayal of certain southern characters, let's just say there's a lot that doesn't look great with the benefit of hindsight. Still, some things (like a kick-ass theme song or Jane Seymour's beauty) are timeless, so maybe it's better to live and let live. Either way, this episode (featuring a beer from the Silversmith Brewing Co.) proves one thing - nobody does it like Bond!
