We only know of 1 scene that was deleted. Was there more? and how or is it possable to watch this scene. It had to do with Q jumping around on a roof.

[doublenoughtspy]

Q had nothing to do with the scene.

It involved Bond chasing Sir Hilary Bray's assistant across the rooftop and to the post office near the College of Arms.

Storyboards, contact sheets, and a few stills exist - but no footage survives.

[RazorBlade]

Are there any other deleted scenes.

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Did any of these deleted scenes make it onto the UE DVD for OHMSS?

Yes, this rooftop scene is on the UE DVD as an easter egg. Go to the main menu. Press the arrow up key two times very fast, then press the arrow down key two times, then press right and then left arrow twice as fast and it will start playing.

Really! what Disc?

Indeed. That was very naughty of him...

It's sad that you responded so fast to my reply... I was hoping someone would actually try that

I normally loathe practical jokes. But I must admit, the idea of Bond fans with their remotes in their hands desperately moving arrows backwards and forwards, believing, perhaps, they were moving them too quickly, or not quickly enough, was delicious...

I didn't. I don't have the UE DVD for On Her Majesty's Secret Service. I just wanted to know if it would be more the money to shell out the money for it. I think I'm content to stay with my Special Edition DVD until EON actually releases the "Ultimate Special Edition" DVD with those deleted scenes.

they dont exist anymore

[Bucky]

unfortunate. i would love to see that scene no matter what condition it is in

doublenought never jokes about OHMSS

And right he is to step in so fast. There are enough unfounded silly rumours, and especially this one shows up every few months

[Royal Dalton]

They only filmed a small portion of that scene, before abandoning it, anyway, didn't they?

[doublenoughtspy]

Too true

Exactly. Before you know it, the statement could be on the IMDB, Wikipedia, and a ton of other web sites proclaiming the "fact".

And yes Royal Dalton - they rehearsed some of the scene, and then it was abandonded because it was too complex and costly for such a minor plot point.

Hey doublenought, I thought I read or heard on the DVD that Lazenby sprained his foot running along the wall or rooftop and that was the final nail in the coffin for the scene. They apparently filmed a portion, but not the entire scene. Your comments?

He said he sprained his arm climbing. The contact sheets and call sheets don't reflect that though.

[The ides of Mark]

Maybe they just kept the idea for QoS.

[O.H.M.S.S.]

The abandoned idea of this chase sequence over the London rooftops, wasn't that the inspiration for the chase in Siena in Quantum of SOlace?

[Pierce - Daniel]

The inspiration for a simple footcahse starting from a rooftop was what inspired P&W to come up with what eventually became the Parkour scenes from CR. The idea fully came out with to existence in QOS.

What actually happens in the scene, how does it play or was supposed to play in the film?
