Bond's Flat?

in SPECTRE - Bond 24 (2015)
I hope the Express article turns out to be true. If it is to be Bond's flat, it looks like it fit's Fleming's version from the outside with a Regency look and the bay windows.

    Similar to the Chelsea flat that Fleming gave Bond, and also very similar to one of the homes that Fleming himself had. Hope it's true!

    Maybe I'll be disappointed, but I'm beginning to think in this movie I will see everything I wanted to see in a Bond film. This Craig era is a dream come true. First CR, the Holy Grail novel, comes alive. Now Blofeld and SPECTRE might be back. And after four decades, we might see Bond's flat again. Great.

    Maybe May's scenes are shot in April, which sounds weird, but isn't.

    God help all of us memorabilia collectors if they do indeed show Bond's flat. This might do me in, but at least I'll die happy :007)

    I don't know why, but from the last 2 times we saw the inside of Bonds flat, I just had it in my minds eye,that it was on the ground floor, that's how I imagined it , 8-)
    By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    Me too, always imagined. Him having a bottom flat, unless
    It's over two floors ? ;)

  • always shakenalways shaken LondonPosts: 6,287MI6 Agent
    Yes ,very strange ,as most flats in that area are at least 3 to stories high, and I suppose a member will tell us ,that a 1st floor flat is more secure ,than a ground floor one to wich we will agree on .But as I said earlier, I just imagined him to be
    on the ground , :D

    He'll have a hell of a job putting the bins out ! :))

    I wonder if who ever owns the flat, knows it will now be a Bond
    Tourist attraction. With Hundreds of Bond fans coming to visit. :D
    Getting photos as if opening the door etc. :))

    We don't have bedpans anymore over here. You Germans really need to stop making cars and guns and start making toilets and plumbing.

    In LALD it was on the ground floor. However, when reading the novels I imagined a second floor.

    In the Books, Bonds Flat has a small Library in it.

    I always imagined a ground floor flat in the books. I think in the book OHMSS he wonders if he can rent the floor above his for when he married Tracey

    Looks more and more like this IS Bond's flat:

    Let's hope it is and not Moneypennys' flat where Bond has spent the night and she's off to work. I really don't feel that. I'm going with it being Bond's flat.

    In the novels, his flat was on the ground floor. However, even though it was in a converted Regency house, it doesn't mean Bond did not own the whole house. It could have been inherited from his family (and May came along with it). It was converted to probably modernize and reconfigure the interior footprint. The second and third floors might have been utilized for storage and and a living area for May.

    In SF mi6 sold his flat when they thought he was dead, that was obviously the ground floor flat of Dr No and LALD and he has since purchased a first floor flat! Come on guys keep up :))
