Summary

Day 20 of 30 Days of SPECTRE!
 
As we’ve all noticed by now, SPECTRE is absolutely jammed to the gizzards with nods to previous Bond films. From the helicopter fight in the pre-title sequence to Blofeld’s You Only Live Twice style crater base, Bond 24 is steeped in 007 history. 
 
In today’s episode Chris takes us through the meticulous notes he took during his 3rd viewing. We have two complete sides of A4 paper to get through today folks.
 
With all that said, we're sure there are plenty we’ve missed, so let us know in the comments if you’ve picked up on any Bondian Easter Eggs we didn’t catch.

Obviously, die another day, tried to do that with the, with the 50th anniversary and got one or two little things in there.

0:42.8

You always see one or two little nods, but Spector is full of them, baby.

0:47.8

Absolutely full of them.

0:49.6

Yeah, I think if you'd have told me before going into this film that they were going to make so many
