You’re right. Ugh, I always forget about good ‘ol Pierce and his background...
God Bless him...

We might lease Castle Dunvegan to M for a huge piece of the action -
But no messing with explosives and missiles and the Scotch in the dungeons will be locked and well guarded by Clan McLeod
- There can be only one.....

Ian Fleming’s personal wheels:
Studillac
Baby Bird
Big Bird
(Mrs. Fleming said the Baby Bird was too cramped)
- Before those - some pretty tame small Brit cars

Big difference between a lead actor having class or playing his part as a slimey character. I don’t think I consider any movie a piece of art but they are all just entertainment, all made for profit. Nothing wrong with that.
I just think to continue making 007 popular with todays younger generation they are turning him into street thug. It is more fitting to the youth of today though not to my generation which watched 007 in the 60’s from the get-go. After all, todays audiences wouldn’t begin to catch the innuendo and one liners of the old Bond, James Bond.
FYI:
“We were saddened to hear about the passing of trumpet player Derek Watkins. A legend in his field, Derek had the distinction of playing on every single James Bond soundtrack from DR.NO to SKYFALL.
Our thoughts are with his family.
You can find out more about Derek’s work at http://www.derekwatkins.co.uk/. And here is a link to a SKYFALL videoblog featuring Derek: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqybdEgn3zI"
