Ladies and Gentleman Pierce Brosnan is Bond and everything is alright with the world.

We've been waiting since 1986 and finally 1995 comes along and he's got the gig. A new man in the top job and a new man as stunt coordinator as SIMON CRANE takes over.

We find out about how some of these extraordinary scenes are put together with stuntman JIM DOWDALL who was responsible for a lot of military advising and a bit of tank driving, GARY POWELL who not only drove the tank for majority of that amazing chase in St Petersburg, but also dies a thousand deaths as did PAUL HERBERT who starts his dying for Bond as the pilot of the plane in the pre-title.

James Bond is back......You were expecting someone else?
