He does sound very enthusiastic about it all.  Put the interviewer right about gadgets in Bond books (DB3 notwithstanding), and moved along briskly.

 

Completely looking forward to it.

There's a clip here: http://www.bbc.co.uk...t-arts-38238272

 

Have I heard of Trigger Finger before? I'm not sure I'm familiar with it.

He said he has the first line in mind already, that it is a terrific first line, and that it is a large part of why he wants to write a second one.  Without sharing how it is I happen to know this first line, I am willing to share it here...it does not give away the ending, so I do not thing I am engaging in spoiling it for anyone.  Here it is:

 

"It was a dark and stormy night."

 

I know, right ?  Yes, who would not be hooked ?!!?
