You're most welcome Simon! I hope to do them all for anyone interested - I have to say I look forward to the documentaries more than anything, if there's any decent ones one.

I also belive the Barry Nelson 'Casino Royale' US show will be shown also as part of the screenings. That's very exciting to hear!

TCR - looking at a TV magazine today and checking on the Sky site, you appear to have missed off your listings all the little documentary programmes that generally come on around 12.30 to 1pm every day.

Would it not be worth popping those in too bearing in mind these are the programmes not all of us will have seen?

Hmm, I appear to have been short changed! From my TV Choice magazine, from Sunday there are no documentaries listed, which I in turn am looking forward to most!

Saying that...I wondered why there was nearly a 3 hour run of 'Quantum Of Solace' to the next film!

Simon, I will see what I can find to ammend this - if you have any knowledge, please let me know! :)

Tuesday 9th October

12.30pm - Bond Special Treats behind the scenes look at 'Casino Royale'


Wednesday 10th October


1pm- Bond Special Treats behind the scenes look at the locations of 'Quantum Of Solace'



I will update more when I find out, and Simon will of course! :)

What a mess they've made of Roger's head/neck! He looks more like a suspect from Cluedo.

Have you tried the channel yet? It really IS 007 HD!

I just watched the Bond Girls documentary, and saw the vintage trailer for 'Dr.No', 2 TV spots for 'Skyfall' and adverts for the 007 fragrance and Coke Zero!

It's just Bond, and beyond! After those ads, it's straight to 'Goldfinger'!


Well done SKY! This is the channel of 00-dreams!

Has anyone else noticed that, on the ad for Adele's song, which the channel is showing, there is what looks like a new, slower walking Daniel Gunbarrel sequence? If it's the one from the movie, it's a big improvement on the QoS one.

Don't have an HD box or subscription. Is it also on the regular 007 channel?

I noticed that sagart - it looks like Craig, so could it be they've used the gunbarrel walk already? If so - I bloody love it over 'QOS' and it could very similar to Timothy Daltons.

You see now? Daniel Craigs is clearly the tallest James Bond 007 ever. End of debate.

This is all I see now whenever I look at the poster. Brilliant observation!

Commander Bond... in the library... with the Walther PPK.

To be fair, the only Bond who looks as though he has the correct body is Craig.

The rest have had body parts glued on hither and thither.

Nah; George, Tim and Pierce are all original, save for a tie stuck on to George.

I'm so impressed with the effort Sky have put into this channel - it really is dedicated to all things 007 and they're not holding back. This is the channel I dreamed about when I was a teenager - non stop Bond films, trailers, documentaries, music and just cool graphics!

The documentary if you catch it, 'Bond Girls Are Forever', has been updated with Maryam d'Abo talking to Judi Dench, Berenice Marlohe and Naomi Harris about 'Skyfall' and their roles. Also has some dialogue between Eve and M leading to the fateful gunshot taken in Turkey on the train. A great watch.

I have adored this channel from start to finish - barely had another channel on all October.

Bond on Sky guarantees my subscription.

I still think it's the channel of my dreams. Just the attention to detail and effort made into it, I love it!

Great logos, great titles, great music...I'll be sad when it's gone! :(
