The interview is here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwDm2S0-CIw&feature=youtu.be
He is the president of the Italian club The Cercle.

I´m not Italian, but I can understand this:

a) Fiennes is Miles Messervy. He will take the part for future films also.

Dench-M will be dismiss.

c) The Aston Martin will have new gadgets

d) Q will be a MI6 agent and will help Bond in his mission

The other two news are the explosion at MI6 (apparently he said this, before the filming...) and the train-motorbike scene in Turkey.

Not really "bomb news" for us, but confirms some rumours...

[Vauxhall]

I can't watch the video so this is an honest question: is this guy actually in a position to know this information, or is he just repeating rumours?

[thecasinoroyale]

...well it certainly re-treads the rumours flying around at the moment at certain 'assumptions' like the Aston Martin gadgets and Q...but I think more solid evidence is needed for actual 'confirmation'.

Sounds good though if it's true.

Can´t confirm this but in his web http://www.jamesbondwebitalia.com/ the audio appeared on feb 16th i.e. before the filming at Vauxhall Bridge and the scene with Tanner and M that he describes in detail...

[Pussfeller]

The only thing that is not a rehash is the fourth point : that Q will be an MI6 agent. So if we see Whishaw filming an action scene, that might indicate that this guy, Ilario Citton, is reliable.

Do I need Italian lessons, or does he say (at 6:35) that Eddie Money will be contributing a track to the film?

Afraid to say that the Vauxhall Bridge filming was on 12th February, so he posted the audio after that.

I think he said "dimane"... Here is the text, more or less: http://www.supergaci...rga-cinema.html

He is talking about Bond´s father... Fake at last...?

To me, this seems to be all speculation and (educated??) guess work based on reading forums such as this one.

These aren't real news for us CBN-ers but I can assure you that these are real news in Italy, given the lack of information on the upcoming Bond film. I think he just reported in Italy the news he learned from the English forums. However he doesn't say anything for sure, but he use the conditional in what he says.

[thecasinoroyale]

That makes sense Luigi...if news comes through from another country and the filming details there, it's bound to be 'hot' information, unless you're as addicted as we are surfing the depths of the 'Net for our 'Skyfall' fix - and obviously reporting from filming sites around the country pretty much the day it happens!

Thank you, Luigi, I didn´t understand the conditional. I´m Spanish and don´t speak Italian!

Anyway it´s surprising what he told about Miles Messervy or the role of Q. Is he speculating?

The latest news we know about Ralph Fiennes' character dates back to January 2nd 2012 and comes from an insider at EON. Read here:

In my opinion, his name being Messervy or another name it's not so important, what really matters is the role he is playing.

What he told about Q isn't surprising : we know that has been casted a quite young actor in that role , plus we know that the MI6 is under attack, so don't expect to see Q at his usual workplace.

As I told you before, there aren't real news for a CBN member in that interview, everything he said can be found in this or other similar forums.

Whether these tidbits turn out to be true or not, I'm certainly licking my chops at these! LOL.. Without a doubt, Skyfall is gonna be a very unique Bond film!

[DamnCoffee]

The Aston Martin will have new gadgets? As in the DB5? So we might get the Bond/M car chase afterall.

Q has taken on a field agent role before - he joined Bond in the Bahamas in TB and in Isthmus City in LTK.

[Pussfeller]

Q takes his show on the road in TB, YOLT, TMWTGG, MR, OP, LTK, and TND. But OP and LTK are the only films where he really takes part in the action. It seems like Citton is saying that Whishaw's Q will be assisting Bond in an active, field-agent capacity - an "outdoor cat", as in OP and LTK. If that's true, we might see some evidence of it during filming.

[Matt_13]

What about the earpiece Bond is wearing in several pics? Could be Q feeding him intel.

[Pussfeller]

Well, we know that the producers are inexplicably fond of the "remote-controlled Bond" dynamic, where he's constantly in communication with a high-tech mission control. It wouldn't surprise me if Q assumed the role of Bond's "tech support". In this case, he would basically be a more fully-realized and individuated version of the MI6 elves who talked Bond though the defibrillation scene in CR.

[MattofSteel]

Or Simon Pegg's 'Benji' from the recent Mission: Impossible films, basically.

[Matt_13]

That was the first thing that sprang to my mind. Definitely not a bad thing, rather liked Benji.
