Those James Bond actors return with a view to a thrilling last post…
In a case of never say never again, our favourite sextet(te) return for one last fling until next year’s shenanigans.
The Bond boys are back for one last day! I woke up in a cold, snowy Finland and discovered two overnight posts, and this morning one post came in time for my morning coffee. So after these both warmed up my wee heart, I’m sorry to tell you that this is definitely the last post. But I will be adding reviews as I get them and a wee shout out to the Craggus for today’s blogathon banner.
Do remember the lovely Gabriela from Pale Writer and I will be returning this time next year for the now annual You Knew My Name: The Bond Not Bond Blogathon. So I’m inviting you all back for this blogathon sequel, but I won’t be accepting your review choices now. And this is despite Darlin Husband’s insistence I review Pierce Brosnan’s The Lawnmower Man (1992) sometime next year.
Now on with those posts on these one time Bonds… and just click on the blue title to get to those fabulous reviews…
Diary of A Movie Maniac brings Sean Connery back in what is possibly his most remembered costume movie in Zardoz (1974)…
18 Cinema Lane re-adds Roger Moore this time as a delightful Sherlock Holmes in the now must watch again Sherlock Holmes in New York (1976)…
Thoughts All Sorts remembers Daniel Craig in a double bill, with him at his finest, here as a toyboy in one for me and your mother in The Mother (2003)…
… and also as he shows his versatility again in Layer Cake (2005)…
Journeys in Classic Film adds Sean Connery in first of the Bonds – unless you know differently – in a musical Darby O’Gill and the Little People (1959)…
And finally, do check out these posts which star those Bond guys mentioned and more…
Day 1 – where you can find all of those film reviews tributing George Lazenby
Day 2 – where Sean Connery makes an s(ch)terling appearance
and
Day 3 – where Pierce Brosnan appears in another captivating movie…
Before I go a wee thanks to my Darlin Husband for telling me (this morning) that it’s spelt S-E-X-T-E-T and not S-E-X-T-E-T-T-E like the Timothy Dalton and Mae West movie. And also thanks to him and my mum for their sterling support or the last few days as I’ve gittered on about the movies and TV appearances for men who were Bond and jfif pictures…
This video is dedicated to (in no particular order) Darlin Husband, my mum, Timothy Dalton – who inspired the blogathon -, the other actors who played Bond, their film roles, their TV characters and co-host Gabriela and the rest of you to give at least 007 reasons.
Mae West & Timothy Dalton sing “Love Will Keep Us Together”, Andrey Milevskiy

Lol, Gill, thanks for the campiest moment in the blogathon. Timothy Dalton romancing an 80 year old Mae with a Captain and Tennille tune is a gift that keeps on giving!
Merry merry Christmas and a happy, healthy and safe new year to all.
