This Youtube video claims to have commentaries from the Laser Disc versions of Dr No, From Russia with Love, and Goldfinger that Cubby banned because they shine a light on some questions comments and illicit activities of some of the filmmakers during the filming of these three films.
What are you thoughts?

I’ve heard these before. They’re hilarious in their blatant rawness. No wonder Cubby banned them, it’s like they never expected anyone to hear them. Sean’s ‘frog face’ is something I’d heard about before from Young, but to see it in context 🤣
No wonder they thought no-one would ever hear them as Laserdisc was always such an obscure product. Those 3 gentlemen,Terence Young, Peter Hunt and Richard Maibaum would all be turning in their graves if they knew the state of Bond today
I watched these... not as salacious or scandalous as they're touted in the intro, but references to Bond's prowess at 'screwing' was hardly family fare, maybe Cubby might have approved of comments about Connery's weight gain even in FrWL when he meets Tanya for the first time 'we had to ask him to hold his stomach in... he liked his food' and also Lotte Lenya's sexual appetite 'she was still screwing at 80' though they had her down as 70 in this and she really wasn't in FRWL surely, maybe even just 50 I will check.
Entertaining stuff - sort of men's club locker room banter - but proclaiming Connery to be better than subsequent Bonds probably did it for them, given none of them were currently directing the Bond films.
Roger Moore 1927-2017
She was in her 60s during FRWL (since she was in her early 30s when "The Threepenny Opera" opened in 1928).
Had a feeling this "headline" would be another big piece of nothing.
There are comments on the later DvDs that might set some people of today, that somr folk might find 'shocking.' When did the world get so wibble wabble? Its killing stand up comedy.
Its becoming a serious problem for Bond too. 😑
I watched this a few weeks ago and it’s hilarious how the edit makes it seem like Peter Hunt was a complete perv, obsessed with people being naked!
