Finally a place for all those little known or false facts on all things Bond.
Both Connery and Moore were up for the Part of Johnny Castle in Dirty Dancing.
Only when Patrick Swayze Challanged them to a Dance off, did they Back down.
In 1978 Moore threatened to leave the series if his Belief in UFOs was not shown
on screen hence Moonraker being rushed after TSWLM.
Dalton was a Big fan of Bare knuckle fighting and had several trained Monkeys
fight for his entertainmant.
If you rearange the letters fron TMWTGG it spells out, Satan is a nice bloke.
Following a heated argument D Craig threw a Tank of Oil over Gemma Arterton, as the
film was behind schedule it was worked in to the plot.
The invisible car often broke down and wouldn't work. Leaving the actors to have to
pretend it was there.
DAD, was nominater for Best film in 2002.
During the filming of OP, Moore dressed as a clown did indeed perform in a local Circus
showing his skill at juggling, magic tricks and Pie throwing. Sadly his fear of sawdust
stopped him from taking the gig fulltime.
The code running through the Fleming novels tells of all major Human events for
the 20th Century and the start of the 21st.

But might be funny. :007)
Cubby Broccoli was a great practical joker and made sure that the first Bond films were based on Fleming novels whose heroines' names Connery would struggle with:
Pushy Galore, Kishy Shuzuki, Jill Mashtershon, Tiffany Cashe etc.
didn't want to hurt his hard earned Muscial credibility.
Giving him the Initals Of JCB, hence why with the reboot they
have used so much construction equipment, Diggers mainly, as
a Homage to this Little Known fact.
Melodic than forwards.
In Pett's Bottom (2016), Bond receives a distress call from his Aunt Charmian (whimsically played by the irrepressible Dame Maggie Smith) and must return to his teenage home town to face shadowy figures from his Aunt's past: Silva Top (the village milkman) aided by his two henchmen, Jaws (the village dentist) and Nick-Nack (the charity shop worker).
Armed only with a Rayleigh Chopper (supplied by Q branch after the demise of his DB5) and his father's old catapult, can Bond save his Aunt and avoid the destruction of his hometown, like so many other Home Counties, from charity shops and Starbucks?
) a bit of Political satire.
with the director, who saw that Connerys Balls were monogrammed with “007”.
I'm guessing these were his Golf Balls. )
Nope - not his golf balls. True story!
Reminds me of a Very Old Joke, which I Bond up a bit.
Bond picks up a hitchiker after playing Golf, as the guy sits beside Bond he almost
sits on his Golf Tees, "What are these for " he asks. Bond replies " They're for
resting your Balls on before driving Off "
"Bloody hell " sais the hitchiker " These designers at Aston Martin really think about your comfort "
Did he have a little itch... down there... would you mind?
For a few weeks at least.
great fun. So I found it and thought I'd re-post it.

Daniel Craig's middle name is Wroughton
Pierce Brosnan's is Brendan
Tim Dalton is Peter
Roger Moore's is George
George Lazenby's is Robert
Sean Connery's is Sean, as He is really Thomas Sean Connery.
I'm Happy to say that Like Bond I have no middle name. -{
Facts about Bond (might not be true):
Theta watches have signed an exclusive deal with EON to replace Omega as Bond's watch of choice.
The next movie will see a return of some of the best loved watch-gadgets from the series. It will double as a Geiger-counter (it makes an odd grinding noise, no SFX needed) and double as a garrotte (turn the winder and it handily detaches from the body accompanied by some string from the innards).
