... what would it be?

Right chaps, I'm very lucky to have a ticket for 'An Evening With Sir Roger Moore' in October in my home town of Basingstoke and even luckier to be on the front row.

Bar the point I may try hang around the stage door on leaving and wave my 'Bond On Bond' book around in a hope to catch Sir Roger for a signature, the main reason for my topic is there is an audience Q&A after and I really want to ask the man himself a question.

I'd actually like to know what you would ask him if you were picked for a question.... I'm sure we'll have a few jokers here too, so please go ahead, but also any serious ones you'd like him to answer as I'm trying to think of a good one for him, probably a Bond related one, but if yours is a cracking one I may pinch that and report back to you!


So have a think.... thanks guys! :)

Sounds like a great evening. I'm not sure what I'd ask him, but I'll post something if I think of it. I wish that they could get the Bond actors to do this kind of thing in the US. I'd definitely go to one of these if Moore or Dalton were to hold such an event somewhere near where I live.

Congrats! I hope you have a great time with this (we know you will!). Not sure what I would ask. There are a lot of questions, but asking just one would seem like passing up an opportunity to ask any of the others on my mind. In the end, I'm sure you will think of something suitable. And Sir Roger, of course, will think of a suitably witty response, regardless.

I would ask him

"Two trains leave from a station at the same time. They travel in opposite directions, one at 62 km/h, the other at 48 km/h. How long will it take before the are 550 km apart?"

I would ask him: "You say that AVTAK was your least favorite film, however, I am actually a fan and like the idea of an older Bond, as do some others. Does that in anyway have an affect on your liking of the film or saying it was a 'mistake'? What would your take be on another older Bond?"

Haha...good ones! I like your one about 'AVTAK' mttvolcano, that's an interesting point.

I was thinking about asking him to share a moment or event during his 15 year Bond run that really made him feel that he was James Bond, and stepping into the famous tuxedo was finally upon him.

So many ideas...thanks for your ideas though! Still got a bit of time thankfully...!

Aww gutted PPK, that's a shame! I admit I was very surprised to see him plan a visit to old Basingstoke, so have to make the most of it!

LOL! Towel thief that he is.

I would have loved to see a show somewhere nearer me; somewhere northern.

I travel all over the world to see Springsteen shows but, as much as I love Sir Moore, I'm not sure a Rog appearance would have the same excitement heh heh. Come to Glasgow or Edinburgh, Rog!

One of these dates is just begging for Coogan to turn up as Partridge and ask a question; it would be fecking hilarious.

Do you regret the expensive humoristic and kitsh elements in several movies like TMWTGG or Moonraker ?

I might have to ask if he regrets the choice of photo for the publicity poster. I'm slightly spooked by it.

Failing that, something about whether he feels that the lighter tone of his movies sustained the franchise at a time when it may have been expected to suffer 10 films in? Also, does he regret the fact that some movies (MOONRAKER) have been panned in the years since release for trying to follow existing cinema trends (space), or does he consider that a necessary evil that had to be followed at the time?

Sir Roger also apparently loves telling anecdotes about Herve Villechaize's prodigious use of ladies of the night when they were filming in the Far East, so any good stories about that are also welcome...

"Why do you go about saying that barmen the world over recognize 007 and get a martini ready before he asks for one, when that has never happened even once - not just in any of your own films, but in the entire series?"

Something along those lines Icestaker I think...I don't know, something like what scene from your Bond films was the best to film, and stands out to you as a defining 007 moment?

I don't know...aghh!

If he could have starred in any of the films done by the other actors, which would he choose and why?

A suitably and alternately insightful and witty response should follow.
