    I must be a little behind, the kilt only just dropped for me

    Then pull it up again at once! :))

    It’s so much more freeing with it down though :))

    In all seriousness I actually do have my own kilt...my last name’s probably the most Scottish one you could think of so owning one in the family tartan was almost a requirement. I really should have worn it while watching this :D

    Grandparents on my father's side were Scots, I also have evidently have a family tartan, keep meaning to get one...

    You never see lametta on Christmas trees anymore... guess it must be a fire hazard

    Actually had to look up what lametta was, never heard that term before—always just called all types of tinsel, tinsel. The more you know :)

    My parents still have.
    Same lametta put back in a box for the last 50 years.
    My mom even ironed it at once

    Love this wheelhouse/cable car scene... one of the most genuinely tense scenes in all the Bond films

    Apparently changes had to be made to the cable car escape scene to prevent it being too similar to one in the almost contemporary "Where Eagles Dare"

    Very cool how he rips out the pocket lining for makeshift gloves

    And yes, it's really that high and steep!

    Lauterbrunnen is in a valley and the rocks go vertically for like 700-800 m. right up. Then there is the plateau where Mürren is and it goes further up on the mountain.

    Insider tip: The campground in Lauterbrunnen makes the best Lasagne north of Italy!

    Would be a great location for a BASE jump.

    A bell shop—the worst place you could possibly try and hide.

    I know, I am a lucky git!

    Seriously, Schilthorn is my favourite place (with the exception of Hawaii and Bora Bora) - I have been incredibly happy there!
