Bond v Bond: the return of 007
The new James Bond film "Spectre" is released
By The Data Team
Ah, my dear fellow…so we meet again. “Spectre”, the 24th Bond film will be released in Britain today, on October 26th, and is expected to draw yet more fans to the once-flagging film franchise. Our popular “Booze, bonks and bodies” appraisal of the James Bond actors returns too (you might say it only lives twice) which was first published in 2012 before the release of the 23rd instalment, “Skyfall”. That last Bond outing went on to become the most successful of the franchise to date, surpassing 1965's “Thunderball”, the only other Bond film that has grossed (in today’s money) over $1 billion (£630m) at the box office.
