Hello and welcome to James Bond Radio. You may notice that this episode is a few days late,

for which we would like to profusely apologize. I'm very sorry. Are you sorry, Chris?

I'm incredibly sorry. I'm really, really, really, really sorry.

What happened was we recorded this episode and then we had some interference on Skype

and had to abort halfway through.

And then, as luck would have it, both of us were stricken with severe lurgies.

I was, I was, had some severe spew related issues, which kept me in bed for like three or four

days. And you had some serious sort of man flu issues, didn't you?

Yeah, serious man flu. I couldn't, I could hardly speak, which some of the listeners might actually notice in part of the

recording.

I feel it, feeling a bit better today.

So, yeah, on the way forward.

Good stuff.

We're both, we're both back in the saddle, so to speak.

So apologies for that.

We did put a message out on Twitter and Facebook to let you guys know,

but for those of you not on there, we are very sorry. Now also in the time between when we

recorded this episode and our illnesses, we had some rather important Bond 24 news that came out,

didn't it? So we're going to talk about that quickly now before we roll the main episode.

And then we'll talk about the rest of it throughout the rest of the episode.

So what's been going on in the world of Bon 24, Chris?

Well, we've just had a really tiny bit of news.
