Re. the question about Bond actors playing villains, Timothy Dalton guest starred on a season of 'Chuck', playing a character that was essentially a Bond villain, and he was fantastic.

Great ep!

Roger Moore should have played Drax in Moonraker. He'd already proved he could play double roles in The Man Who Haunted Himself and looked good wearing a beard in North Sea Hijack.

I think Matt (no, the other one) was too quick to dismiss being in a Bond movie where he would have to fly a plane. Sure, there are quite a few with planes. But the hardest part is the take-off and landing, and really, it's the landing that's the hardest part. But do we know Bond can actually land a plane? He's taken off a few times; mostly, he's fought henchmen and taken over the controls in the air. And then he flies off.... maybe he uses them to get back to MI6, but doesn't know how to land. So, thanks to parachutes, Bond returns for the next film, and there are a dozen planes sitting on the bottom of the Thames, right near MI6 HQ.
