No Time to Die and that missing trailer

While we didn't get a No Time to Die teaser trailer to coincide with Global James Bond Day we did at least get a poster.

No Time to Die: what I think of the title

Although the title for Bond 25 was announced as No Time to Die back in August, it's only now I've got down to talk about the title.

Curiously it was a title I had jokingly suggested in episode 19 of the James Bond & Friends podcast back in July!

007 Daily #053: The Living Daylights

In my mind the very best short story written by Ian Fleming is The Living Daylights. It's the short story I always recommend people to read if they want to get started with Ian Fleming and don't want to go in and read a complete novel to start with. Here I talk a bit about why.
