In Live and Let Die, Bond takes a BOAC Stratocruiser over the Atlantic: "From the moment the B.O.A.C. Stratocruiser taxied up to the International Air Terminal at Idlewild, James Bond was treated like royalty."
In FYEO he laments not being able to fly on one: "He regretted the days of the old Stratocruiser — that fine lumbering old plane that took ten hours to cross the Atlantic. Then one had been able to have dinner in peace, sleep for seven hours in a comfortable bunk, and get up in time to wander down to the lower deck and have that ridiculous BOAC ‘country house’ breakfast while the dawn came up and flooded the cabin with the first bright gold of the Western hemisphere."
If you have ever wondered what it would have been like, here are a few promotional clips from the 50's:
Do you have desperate urge to watch a cultured movie? The type you can discuss with your girlfriend who's been a student for the last fifteen years over a glass of red wine while wearing a beret? Then this movie is for you! 🤣😁
I really enjoyed the videos! The multi-cource meals, the carefully measured stewardesses, the on-board smoking, the beds. All narrated in a sonorous voice that reminds me of "Ferdinand the bull" by Disney. Flying Ryanair or Norwegian just isn't the same.

Ithaca by C.P.Cavafy read by Sean Connery
Music by Vangelis.
I think most Bond actors have great voices, certainly Connery, Moore, Dalton and Craig.

Count Arthur Strong's 007 audition.
Steve Delaney has created a brilliant comedy character with Count Arthur, amazing to watch live -{
Works better than the TV version.
The tv version is still funny but is quite different to his radio shows…the character ‘works’ far better live -{

The comments are saying this would have been a great Bond theme for Bond 25, especially if it was named Shatterhand as the early rumors indicated.
