We’re looking at the plane vs Land Rovers chase sequence in today’s episode of James Bond Radio.

It’s Bond vs Hinx in a killer car chase through the streets of Rome on today's James Bond Radio.

Does it stand among the best of Bond car chases or is it a stinker? Find out on today's James Bond Radio.

OMG! OMG! OMG! The main man is finally back on our screens after an over 40 year absence. Today we take a look a long hard look at Bond’s arch nemesis, Ernst Stavro Blofeld.

It’s time to talk Mr. White on James Bond Radio. First seen in Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, Jesper Christensen returns in SPECTRE as the glue that ties those films together. Considering Mr. White was sent to kill Le Chiffre and was present at the Quantum opera house meeting we speculate on his potential position within SPECTRE itself. Could he have been Number 2? Or maybe even 3 or 4? Find out in today’s episode of James Bond Radio.

It’s time to talk Madeleine Swann on today’s edition of James Bond Radio.
