I'm looking for James Bond sites to see in London. I only here till next Wednesday 19th Feb. I know there is the book James Bond London, but I can't buy it in London, I have checked everywhere. I have the details for the Q boat sequence and the Westminter bridge door in DAD. I would like to know other places in and around London, Liverpool, Middlesborough and Manchester.

Any help would be kindly appreciated.

Also can anyone recommend any good cinemas in London still showing DAD?

Thanks

Brett

It was still showing in Leicester Square on Tuesday although films tend to change on Friday so check it out.
You can see the Bond display in Brioni's window,Turnbull& Asser who made clothes for Connery and Lazenby on Jermyn Street,Bond costumes in Angels costumiers,22a Ebury Street ( Fleming's home).I think there is possibly a list beside each movie in the imdb.
Stoke Poges golf course,Bexhill Gas works,

As Blue Eyes pointed out Gary Giblin's "James Bond's London" is perfect for you. It contains more sites than you could ever probably see in a month of full time visiting.
