2 November 2011 Hi We've had a whole number of news stories about Bond 23 since my email last week, but at least we don't have much longer to wait and find out which are based on fact.
Tomorrow (Thursday 3rd November) at 11:45 GMT there will be a press conference held prior to the start of filming and we can expect the cast to be confirmed as well as some other details - which may include the name of the film, strongly rumoured to be "Skyfall".
I'll be watching the event live - technology permitting - as it will be broadcast on Sky News, as well as streamed via the Sky News iPad app.
If you can't watch the press conference but want to follow along live then follow along on Twitter.
Simply follow 007dossier on Twitter for major updates as they are announced.
Speak soon!
