    Elements of Fleming's YOLT.

    Yup, the Flemingesque version of YOLT themes that Lewis Gilbert & co weren't seriously engaging with in '67.

    This, now, is how Fleming's Bond might have been on his Japanese island during his time of amnesia married to Kissy Suzuki...

    The hacking stuff, SIS blowing up or Bond in bed relaxing?

    Probably Bond relaxing in casual wear by the water.

    Coming up on the scorpion scene. It's good, but this is my favorite scorpion scene:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lUrEQ_tuMk

    That's from EXTREME PREJUDICE, a great actioner from the 80s.

    I'm rather partial to the DAF scorpion!

    Nowadays we all have bad haircuts because of Corona. And it turns out Norway has fewer real blondes than we thought :))

    Craig here looks older than Brosnan does now.

    In Fleming, May, his Scottish treasure of a housekeeper, would have kept his digs for him, in his absence.

    Right now, I'm rocking what can best be described as the Mel Gibson LETHAL WEAPON mullet.

    It's my beard I'm more concerned about. The Santa look in May!
