Recovering Maritimer, avant-cinephile and fellow Bond head Liam Daly joins the show from Ottawa to review the Daniel Craig 007 era, a 15 year reign that has just ended with the release of the long-delayed No Time To Die.

Relatively unknown at the time he was announced as the new James Bond, Daniel Craig became a major movie star after 2006’s Casino Royale, which became an instant classic in the 007 series. We mount a defense of the much-maligned Quantum of Solace, we grouse about Skyfall, Liam tries to talk me into liking Spectre (which introduces Blofeld back to the series after decades of copyright issues), and we both discuss what we liked about No Time To Die (which you should see before you listen to the show because we might spoil some of the surprise turns of events).

Plus Liam and I name our favourite 007 actors and films, and offer our suggestions for where the Bond franchise goes next.
