I saw that movie at the theater. It was OK. A few years later it was shown on TV and I was not sure it was the same movie.
They started the movie (on TV) in the middle in which Bond, on skis is escaping from the castle, ends up in a car race in town, then a voice over mentions “And how did I get into this predicament?” Then it reverts to the beginning titles and officially starts. I believe it was shown over two weekends. Half one Saturday night, then the rest the next Saturday night.
Maybe the local studio didn’t get the first reels of the film and they aired what they’d advertised in the tv schedule. Or someone misloaded the film out of sequence.
I’ve heard that Ernie Anderson/Ghoulardi would pack too much non-movie content into some of their late night broadcasts some weeks that he’d show the ends of the films next time or even bundled up a number of the ending (this was Cleveland in the 1960s).
In the 1980s in Boston I saw a channel (55 or 56, it’s been decades) that would show cartoons (like Loony Tunes or Tom & Jerry) that had been trimmed, they were putting in more ads and to make up for it, they’d trim one 7 minute cartoon down to about 4 minutes by removing the first 3 minutes after the opening title. They’d also just omit the end credits from movies from the 1970s and 80s. I don’t recall if they did that with tv reruns as well.
