Loaded drinks

Next plane to Singapore

 

 

Luki holds a gun to her mother's head, as usual

Keeping mum

 

 

Katy in the fur coat

Katy comes in from the cold...

 

 

And underneath is...

...and swiftly changes from furs...

 

 

Katy is scuba gear

...into snorkel-wear to tackle the evil overlord

 

 

Young bonds and bond girls

Younger Bonds and Bondettes

 

 

Emily and Ian

Honey Ryder

 

 

Ray, Andrew and Penny

For you, there is no escape.

 

 

Beeson Jones family and Waters family

I think you're a sexist, misogynist dinosaur, Bond

 

 

Andy, Debbie, Kate & Martin

This is not a country club, 007

 

 

High rollers Max, Henry, Alice and Lili

Too bad. You'll have to go all in, Le Chiffre

 

 

Katy, Bill, Rob and Emily, and the Head

You only live twice, Mr Bond

 

 

Ray, Kate and Nigel

Do you expect me to talk? No, Mr Bond, I expect you to die.

 

 

Helen, John & Caroline

Need I remind you, 007, that you have a license to kill, not to break the traffic laws

 

 

Jenny & David with A & H

Look after Mr Bond. See that some harm comes to him.

 

 

Andy and Ian lifting Emily

Behind the headlights, Stinger missiles

 

 

Purkiss family

An unusually fine solera. '51 I believe.

 

 

Andy, Andrew and Helen

Listen carefully, 007...

 

 

Henry & Alice

I trusted you Alec.    Really? What a quaint idea.

 

 

Bond girls

Why waste caviar on a man who won't live long enough to enjoy it?

 

 

Al, Ruth, Liz & Simon

James, is it really necessary to drive quite so fast?

 

 

Anne & Al

I'm co-operating Mr Leiter, I really am

 

 

Brenda & Maria

Don't you know - iguanas are a girl's best friend

 

 

Paul & Helen

Tell me James, do you still sleep with a gun under your pillow?

 

 

Steve, Louisa, Luca & Scharlie

Bond is alive? Impossible!

 

 

 

Bridget & Robin

With all due respect, M, I think you don't have the balls for this job.

Well the advantage is I don't have to think with them all the time.

 

 

Rob & Katy

You're all wet.   Yes but my martini's still dry.

 

Phil, Anne, Ana & daughter

An ventilator shaft, yes, but too small for an escape I think.

 

Paul & Jonathan

I've just locked the launch sequence. Nothing can stop Operation Nightfire now.
