Summary

We have a veteran Bond crew member on today’s edition of James Bond Radio; Mr. Terry Bamber. We talk about his fascinating history with Bond from his Dad (Dickie Bamber) working on the first 4 Bond films as a prop man, to Terry’s first day on the job as a runner on The Man With The Golden Gun, to his work on Skyfall.

Not only is Terry a goldmine of entertaining stories from the world of 007, he’s genuinely a huge Bond fan too. You’ll hear stories about what happened when Terry delivered a plate of sandwiches to Sir Roger Moore’s dressing room, to on set antics with Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson.

Get excited Bond fans, this is a good one!
