165: Back in an Aston Martin

The Living Daylights.

The Roger Moore era has ended, over ten years as Bond, he is for many, the only Bond they have ever known, so replacing him as well as figuring out what to do next with the series is a massive hurtle for the James Bond creative team.

In this episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing is joined by fellow 00 agents Christy Morris and John Champion to talk about The Living Daylights. We discuss continuing Bond, the new Bond, 80s era villains, helpful friends, a Bond woman, the action, the music and our ratings.
