  • A View To A Kill
    Aug 30 2024

    This is it, the final Roger Moore Bond film - A View to a Kill. Boy, were we ready for this to die. Bond must stop a business man from having the monopoly over Silicon Valley, and he is also a blood thirsty psychopath, there's horserace cheating and disaster afoot. If you liked the year of 1985, you will love Mark and Kate chatting about 1985 for the first 20 minutes of the episode. Another pair of villains were too good for this film - Zorin and May Day, Q attempts to be hip with the kids by "inventing" a robot dog to be used only for espionage and James Bond can no longer fist fight the way he used to.

    Extra discretion for this episode - there is a very short chat about suicide, handled in the usual inappropriate, insensitive way.

    If you do have thought/feelings of a suicidal nature, please seek help from friends, family and/or health care professionals.

    A View to a Kill 1985 - Directed by John Glen.

    Starring Roger Moore, the surprisingly great Tanya Roberts, Christopher Walken, the glorious Grace Jones, Patrick Macnee, blink and you'll miss him David Yip, Willoughby Grey, a cameo appearance from a fresh faced Dolf Lundgren and the final appearance of Louis Maxwell's Moneypenny.

  • Octopussy
    Aug 23 2024

    An all-time high! Join Mark and Kate as they review Octopussy. Set in mostly India and Berlin during the later stages of the Cold War, Bond must work out where and when a nuclear bomb will be detonated with the help of Vijay, a British Secret Service Intelligence Operative and Octopussy who uses a travelling circus as a front for smuggling.

    Mark and Kate loved it, hear them fawn over Roger Moore and Vijay Amritraj's performances and the return of Maud Adams. There will be chat about the year of 1983, music and an interpretation of what a Bond scene would sound like, if Mark and Kate were in charge.

    Starring Roger Moore, Maud Adams, Vijay Amritraj, Louis Jourdan, Kabir Bedi. Portraying the most pointless part of Magda was Kristina Wayborn and finally, the man who should've had his own comedy sitcom: Steven Berkoff.

    Directed by "The Pigeon Startler" John Glen, 1983.
