Here's the 50th birthday slide show retrospective, plundering
the Coburn photo archives

Opening credits
|

Moneypenny and double Os
|

Bankrolled by MI6
|

Loaded drinks
|

Next plane to Singapore
|

Keeping mum
|

Katy comes in from the cold...
|

...and swiftly changes from furs...
|

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

Younger Bonds and Bondettes
|

Honey Ryder
|

For you, there is no escape.
|

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

This is not a country club, 007
|

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

You only live twice, Mr Bond
|

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

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

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

Behind the headlights, Stinger missiles
|

An unusually fine solera. '51 I believe.
|

Listen carefully, 007...
|

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

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

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

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

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

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

Bond is alive? Impossible!
|

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.
|

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

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

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