Andrew Scott is due on BBC Radio 2 this afternoon talking to Jonathan Ross from 2pm, and then The One Show from 7pm. 

 

Guardian interview from earlier this week: http://www.theguardi...nd-film-is-cool

I almost got the feeling that Hinx will literally have a hook as a weapon in some way. Given the brutal way he attacks that poor fellow in the first trailer, maybe he's got a secreted hook up his sleeve that he uses to mutilate and kill. Or maybe I read too deeply into the way Bautista jumped on the word.

 
I think I know what it is and it's a bit bizarre.
 

Spoiler

Metal thumbs.

 

Spoiler

Sharpened to a point or like thimbles?

 

You know what? 

Spoiler

I´ve searched every Hinx picture out there and I´ve yet to find one where we can see his thumbs. And if you freeze frame the trailer in that scene where he slams open the train doors, you can see something shining in his right thumb. But hey, that´s just guessing. Were you joking or serious, Shrubs?

 

 
Not joking.
 
It's not just that scene where he slams the train doors open. Try freeze framing when he kills the guy at the Spectre meeting in the full trailer and when he walks on set in the Jonathan Ross special and you will see...
 

Spoiler

...a metallic glint from his thumbs. It might be metal tips to his thumbs or sharp metal nails or the full metal thumbs but I am convinced that there is something metalic about Hinx's thumbs.

 

Ok, I've had chance to have a good look round now and out of the 3 suggestions I made in the above spoiler tab, I've settled on...
 

Spoiler

Sharp metal nails on his thumbs.

Going by the trailer, I'd say his signature kill is to use these to gouged out his victim's eyes.

Thanks, Univex. That's the best evidence yet.
I think we can show the photo but with out remark. 

 

 

[univex]

Shrublands, you´ve uncovered a major, major scoop there! How the hell did they manage to keep that hidden, even from us harcore Bond fans?

It´s a big deal. Even for those who´ve read the script. I´ve heard that it wasn´t in any of the leaked versions. Very ush ush stuff, then. And what a wonderfull, Bondian detail it is. Nicely done. 

 

Spoiler

The Man with the silver nails

 

Spoiler

Shrubs, I think you´ve nailed it

 

And yes, I know this is incredibly off topic. But worth it, I believe. 

[Shrublands]

Cheers!

There has been a number of reports about sightings of character posters - Bond, Swann ,Oberhausen, Moneypenny, M, Q, all the main characters except Hinx.
I think there will be one, but it will only get unveiled once the film has been released... 
 

Spoiler

....with his metal thumb nails on show.

They could have done one without that on show, but that would be like a character poster showing the world Jaws with his mouth shut.

[univex]

Yes, never thought of that. Good call on their part. Nice to keep some things hidden from us. Mendes and co. must get a kick out of that.

[Shrublands]

Photo call and huge press junket in London today.

Mr Craig and Ms Harris were on The BBC Radio One Breakfast Show with Nick Grimshaw. Fantastic questions! Really fun interview.

I turned this on thinking it was a torture scene from the movie. Instead, an object lesson - just when you think daytime TV can't get any worse. ;-)

[Vauxhall]

Err. I'm not sure I want to watch this...

[plankattack]

Err. I'm not sure I want to watch this...

 Don't. It's four minutes of my life that I'm not getting back.........!

[Guy Haines]

I've been thinking about that scene which pushes the age certificate limits, allegedly. I reckon its either;

1) Oberhauser ties Bond to a chair and rather than whack him where it hurts or tries to seduce him, reads extracts from his new book "All Your Pain". He is, after all, the author.

Or;

2) Oberhauser has Bond put on daytime TV for all eternity where he is asked staggeringly inane questions until he cracks, swears and runs off in the manner of Munch's "The Scream". ;-))

Nice to see MGW back on track.

[thecasinoroyale]

That's exactly what I was about to post Stromberg - he's been VERY absent during all of this.

 

And if you want a bit of trivia, Monica Bellucci wasn't wearing a bra there.  Evident in a web-cam shot posted on Twitter by Sony UK during a Q&A. 

 

Just wanted to share that.

I dunno though, he looks positively terrified in that other picture.

Hm. Maybe this will be his last major involvement?

Ah, great to see this as complete Versions per person. The German Sony press site has just put these online, but in shorts snippets of 25 to 55 seconds. 62 interview clips.
There are also a few with BB and MGW. And a B-roll clip of 5 minutes...

[DamnCoffee]

 

 

Andrew Scott, too.

[The Dove]

Thanks for posting these, DamnCoffee.. What great fun everyone has on that Graham Norton show..

[sharpshooter]

 Craig, Harris, Bellucci and Fiennes were on Sunrise this morning in Australia. Nice little chat. Harris said how much effort Craig puts into the role and people should give him a break. To which Fiennes channelled M and said Bond should get back to work. Funny stuff!

I worked really hard at staying away from all press for this one. Only to have that jerk at The Royal Premiere Special drop that bomb shell.

You mean the host David Walliams? I think I know what you're referring to. Barbara Broccoli was glaring at him as he mentioned things he wasn't supposed to mention. Quite incredible that he wasn't briefed beforehand. 

[killkenny kid]

Yes, I believe that is his name. Just watched the Graham Norton clip above....brilliant.

Yes, that annoyed me too. He did it a few times. I mean, I suspected what he said might be true, but didn't know for sure. Now I do, and it annoys me he dropped it so absent-mindedly. Ah well...

My interview with Mr. Hinx:

[Vauxhall]

Good questions! Look forward to seeing your others.

Thanks! There's only the Gregg Wilson one left. Unfortunately Naomie Harris was very busy and quite late when walking over the red carpet.
