Here it is, at long last: the Bond & Beyond review of Skyfall, Daniel Craig's third outing as 007.

Alex and James discuss the many highs and occasional lows of Skyfall, as well as the many pressures it faced: following the flawed Quantum of Solace and, of course, marking the 50th anniversary of this great franchise. This episode also weighs up the new director, new composer, new MI6, and new direction for the franchise.
