Not to be a jerk, but:

'Just as Judi Dench’s M once declares in Tomorrow Never Dies (1997) how “unlike the Americans, we prefer not to get our bad news from CNN”, that is exactly how the ‘dead’ James Bond is pulled into the mission of Skyfall when a TV in a backpackers beach bar breaks word of MI6’s misfortune.'

M actually says this in Goldeneye (1995), not Tomorrow Never Dies. Otherwise a great review!

Jerk!

Just kidding.

You are quite right. And you get the first prize in our "spot the deliberate mistake" competition! Maybe not. But thanks for the anti-wrong alert Mr Union.

Watch this space, SAFan. But that one will be a cracker for a lot of reasons...!

Now the story dust has settled I think it time to post these SKYFALL set photos...
