Much like this podcast, Ian Fleming has been dead for a long time... After the extraordinary claims made in the previous episode, the three dirty devils you know and love travel to the United States of America to seek the help of a mysterious and beguiling clairvoyant. Will the lovable lads from down under find the answers they seek? Or will dabbling in the dark arts do them a mischief? A fashionably late Tres Bond Christmas present featuring the too-talented-for-this-podcast Matt Gourley in multiple uncredited roles. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

It's been a long time since the last James Bond film was released in cinemas. Daniel Craig's tenure is the longest of all six actors to don the tuxedo. No Time To Die has the longest run-time of all 25 Bond films. And we poor Aussie Bond fans had to wait even longer than the rest of the world to watch No Time To Die. We've waited all this time... was it worth it? Does Daniel Craig get the send-off he deserves or is this another final film flop? Three dirty devils from Downunder have decided to go all-in and all-out to send off Craig's Bond. It's a long one... but you have all the time in the world.  The review starts at 56:16 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

Three dirty devils dive into the 007th Fleming novel. Will they like what they find? Will it be the new gold standard of Bond novels in the Très Bond ratings, or will it leave them with a cold finger? Look, that's not my best episode description. These blurbs are hard to write and I've run out of coffee. Does anyone read these? Goldfinger, ladies and gentlemen! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

Shaken martinis, dam jumps, and Bondolas! The 007 film franchise is chock-a-block with iconic and distinctly 'Bondian' moments. So which come out on top for the dirty devils at Très Bond HQ?

They're back*! After taking some overdue holiday, your favourite dirty devils are exactly where they should be: behind the mic talking absolute nonsense. Diving back into Bond via the cool, crystal clear waters of Jamaica, this is the Très Bond Book Club discussion of Ian Fleming's 1958 thriller, Dr. No. Will the boys find this a pulse-pounding pulp spectacular; or is it a more familiar, and fatigued, Fleming affair? *This episode was recorded on the 14th of January, 2021 https://www.youtube.com/c/UnitedStatesofKensington --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

Just like the Bond franchise, we've gone all out to celebrate our 50th. 2020 has been a hell of a year, so we thought we'd have a bit of fun before Christmas and see just how much Bond knowledge has rubbed off on these three dirty devils. Play along and let us know how you went. Thank you to everyone who has supported us throughout the year. Très Bond will return. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

They're Bond's best buddies, always there for him in a pinch and, usually, paying for their loyalty with their lives. In this episode, three best mates from Down Under have their say on who was the bestest of Bond's mates and who needed to be kicked out of the group chat. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

The title sequences for the James Bond films are arguably the most iconic moments in each film. Dripping with classic and classy imagery, these titles are quintessentially Bond. That said, they're not all winners, some are absolute turkeys. Sit back, and relax, as we take you through the best and the worst of the Bond title sequences. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

Now, pay attention, 007 fans. This episode has been perfected, out of years of patient research, to determine which are the best and worst gadgets to have come from Q branch. And, naturally, all the usual refinements... which is basically just three dirty devils ranting, rambling, and raving. Bring it back in one piece. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

"You have betrayed me!" Those were the words Sir Sean Connery shouted at Lois Maxwell when he learned she had signed on for this Italian-made Bond parody, starring his younger brother, Neil. One can only imagine what he must have said when Bernard Lee, Adolfo Celi, Daniella Bianchi, Anthony Dawson, and Yasuko Yama also jumped ship to spoof not only the Bond films but, seemingly, Connery's fame. Was this just a shameless cash-grab exploiting Bond mania and the Connery name, or did this group of Bond alumni craft an absolute banger? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

It was Kennedy's favourite, a critical hit, and its popularity secured the film franchise's birth but many things that were de rigueur for the 1950s have fallen out of fashion since. What of Fleming's 1957 Cold War thriller? Is it a certified banger, or will this whole thing end in a whimper? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

Bloodstone had the misfortune to be released at the same time as the hotly anticipated remake of Goldeneye. With that being the case, it fell through the cracks of both the gaming world and the Bond community. What little attention it received was lukewarm, at best. A decade on, we revisit Bloodstone to determine whether it's a diamond-in-the-rough or a cheap knockoff. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

The oft used phrase is 'that more men have walked on the moon than have donned James Bond's dinner jacket' and debates have raged for decades as to which of the six wore it best. Now it falls to three best mates in Sydney, Australia to compile their most controversial and divisive list; who stood tall and faced it all & who fell short. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

Leslie Nielsen was the undisputed king of the spoof film and Bond had escaped his withering deadpan style until this 1996 effort. Spy Hard gathered a plethora of comedy stars & pop-culture cameos and featured a theme-tune by the king of parody songs. So why does no-one talk about this film anymore? It's lesser-known, even within the Bond fan community, and copies of the film are hard to find. Is this a lost gem or a steaming pile? I think you know. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

Sean, George, Roger, Timothy, Pierce, Daniel and... who's next? Or should one of those names be scrubbed from the record and replaced with another?

For this, the 40th episode of our James Bond podcast, we have decided to celebrate such an auspicious anniversary by reviewing something non-Bond. That's right! We're putting the podcast on Cruise control this week and watching the film that kickstarted a rival action franchise... Mission: Impossible. Just accept it. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message

Upon completion of his fourth James Bond novel, Ian Fleming wrote: "I baked a fresh cake in Jamaica this year which I think has finally exhausted my inventiveness as it contains every single method of escape and every variety of suspenseful action that I had omitted from my previous books." Well, slow down there, Mr Fleming! We three dirty devils might have something to say about that. We also might not. I don't know. Just listen to our review. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tresbondpod/message
