    Was she sharing Connery's temporarily retired one?

    :)) No!

    The photography is beautiful

    There's a magic to Bond's and Kissy's adventure on location with 'Mountains and Sunsets' in the background... reminiscent of scenes with Honey in DN (even though Connery's performance is flatter)
    Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

    How convenient, that Bond is wearing a complete commando outfit with suction cups below his fisherman's clothes.

    SPECTRE are too ready to open and shut the volcano to facilitate routine chopper patrols... exposing their position and jeopardising the whole operation

    Bond scaling the volcano using only sink plungers :))
    One of us smells like a tart's handkerchief.

    Fake night shots, but still atmosperic!

    Barry introduces the 'suspense' Bond chord... as Bond tells Kissy to get back to Tanaka

    I havd to admit I'vegiven up watching YOLT on my DVD. Instead I'm watching a documentary about SOE agent Ragnar Ulstein. Now he's talking about a mission planned by Fleming. :D

    Next time, when Mrs. Higgins sees me with a plunger, I tell her, that I am gonna raid the Spectre Volcano :)) :))

    Why? What were you really gonna do?

    "In our country we say cosmonaut." Friendly small talk to pass the time.

    Burt Kwouk! Mr Ling in GF, and more famously Kato in the Pink Panther series

    We've had a waiter on one of our cruises who looked exactly like him.
    AA laughed loud out when I've texted him that we've been served by Kato

    "An astronaut would never carry his own air conditioning unit". YOLT's space age version of the 'red wine with fish' business in FRWL.

    We have to wait till MR before Bond actually makes it into space.

    Donald Pleasence was a good actor in the right part (eg "The Great Escape"). Unfortunately, this isn't.

    At last... Blofeld's face. And at this stage he's still driven by large scale pecuniary motives.

    The big guy "Hans" is played by one Ronald Rich.

    When the ninjas descend, it's the first Bond film for Vic Armstrong who was a stuntman/2nd unit director for the next 30 or 40 years on the Bond films.

    The Ninjas on the rim - beautiful image,
