A new bond film but set in the 60's

Would be great to see a bond film set in the 60's ,this would open up the scope for more Cold War stories and a cooler retro feel ,what do you think?

The Bond Films should be contemporary, and not Period Films -{

Perhaps one fine day, in the not too distant future so I will still be alive.

A TV series of Ian Fleming's novels faithfully adapted and set in the 1950's will be made. That would be welcomed not just by me but by very many.

I could see the BBC doing that -{ But there would have to be some rather long and complicated discussions with EON and The Fleming Estate.

I could see LALD being a Problem, they would have to cut out the 'N' Word and certain Depictions of Black People that would most likely offend Viewers.

I've often thought the Fleming short stories would make a great TV series.
If set in the 50s or 60s. Perhaps by the BBC , in the vein of " Tales of the
Unexpected " -{

This is what I've wanted since I first read the novels as a teenager.

Most of all, I'd like to see the Thunderball/OHMSS/YOLT stories play out as they did in the books; especially YOLT. Dr. Shatterhand, the Death Collector, with his suicide gardens... I loved it - it's almost supernaturally surreal in the books, and it's a tone that the films will never touch.

I'd love this. Bring the Craig series to a natural close with a good 2 film SPECTRE storyline and then instead of an awkward transition to a new actor playing the same Bond, go for something completely different and take him home to the 50's & 60's.

It'll never happen but if executed well it would be incredible.

I also love the idea of a faithful TV series. 1 6-10 episode season per novel. Yes please!

I hope there is a satisfying End to the Craig Tenure -{
