I don't know why but last night I found myself trying to make up a title for a Bond film. I'm sure plenty of people have done this before - fancy giving it a go? Obviously this would work better if I had succeeded in coming up with one but every time I thought I'd got one I realised that...

Did you see the fat bloke on Graham Norton dancing to the Bond theme? This youtubery shows the clip and then the full version of the dance I must confess, I was disappointed to learn that he appears to be an aspiring professional rather than just a regular fat bloke who's perfected this dance as...

I realise that all I do on these forum pages is post links to BBC Radio programmes that expire after a week but I thought I'd start the new year as I mean to go on. Yesterday I was listening to a prog on Radio 2 which was highlights from Adam & Joe's 6Music show. It was very entertaining...

I was hoping that they would finally sort out what's been wrong with the last few Bond films but, after a brief moment of anticipatory glee when I thought they were about to do it, bitter disappointment again with Quantum of Solace. When-o-when-o-when are they going to get some nippage back in the...

I started to tape that South Bank Show (I was watching something else) but then abandoned it about twenty minutes in and rewound the tape because I turned over and saw they were showing a clip from Quantum of Solace . I'd leapt to the conclusion that it was going to be yet another retread of all...

I expect you've all heard already but I just read today that the theme for Quantum of Solace is Jack White and Alicia Keys doing a duet. It's called Another Way to Die , apparently.

As a vaguely related aside, I think that "Toxic" by Britney Spears is a fantastic not-actually-Bond Bond-song. I don't know if that was what they were aiming for. I never really saw the point to Britney Spears but I think that one is a great pop song and has a good Bond feel to it, with...

[quote user="Papa Fraud"]How about Goldfrapp? They're quite filmic anyway?[/quote] I think they could do a decent one - Felt Mountain's definitely got a bit of a John Barry (and Ennio Morricone) influence. I expect the producers will want to go with someone that will go down well in...

Any news on who's doing the theme song yet? I know they were meant to be talking to Amy Winehouse who was going to get Mark Ronson in on it - but her train-wreck life got in the way. A pity as that could have been really good. And it would have had decent brass on it. I know Edith Bowman and James...

[quote user="Ken Dodd's Hair"]I agree that rap is under-represented and I was going to attempt a semi-humourous rapping suggestion but then Papa appeared at my side telling me to "get off there" because it is a "men only hard core site"...... [/quote] Has Papa banished...
