    Yes I prefer a printed version of 007 magazine.
    I'm not into the different gun types, but of the many potential actors for the Bond part, in the 1970s I liked
    Michael Billington of TSWLMe and UFO TV series, and Michael Jayston (with the smooth voice) who was in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy on BBC
    and in the "lost" BBC episodes of the Quiller spy stories. (transmitted just before VHS video came along circa 1975.)
    Does a recording exist-or was it wiped?

    Theme for "Quiller": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCNxN7C3PX4 Might bring back a few memories for those of us who watched the series!

    I don't think it's available on DVD (or Blu-Ray) but it does seem it can be watched online.

    Have you listened to the radio dramatisation of YOLT with Michael Jayston playing the role of Bond? Its very good:
