🍸James Bond News: March 2017
Published: Tue, 03/07/17
I am seeing a specialist and on industrial strength anti-inflammatories and for the moment having daily physiotherapy.Â
OK, so let's get on with it. If you look at the news stories from the past month you'll see there are a couple of suggestions that work on Bond 25 might have finally have begun.Â
Bear in mind nothing has been confirmed by Eon or MGM yet so by no means definitive. But there does appear to be something going on.
If you do know something more solid and can connect some dots for me then get in touch...
Finally, just a reminder about the special offer pricing on MI6 Confidential magazine. I'm not involved in producing it at all but I sometimes contribute. You can sign up for the complete 2017 season of five issues and pay for just four plus delivery.
The magazine covers all aspects of 007 and is in full colour, a must have for any serious fan of James Bond.
That's all for now so I'll be back next month. But if any solid news about Bond 25 appears before then I'll be sure to let you know.
Ciao!
