Summary

It's time to welcome Oscar winner Peter Lamont to JBR this week. As someone who worked on a total of 18 Bond films from Goldfinger to Casino Royale, we could have made 100 podcasts based on Peter's stories alone.

In today's episode we hear what it was like to work on some of cinemas all-time classic movie sets. We hear all about his time working alongside Ken Adam, taking over the top job on For Your Eyes Only, the terrifying story of being held onboard a hijacked plane during the filming of Octopussy and a whole lot more.

We're truly honoured to have Peter on the show this week, a truly lovely man and an  undisputed all-time Bond legend.

How you doing this week, buddy? All right.

0:42.5

I'm all right, mate. I'm not too bad at all. We've had another interesting episode lined up for our good listeners out there, which are looking forward to.

0:50.6

Absolutely. And following on from last week, which was a bit of a revelation,

0:55.2

wasn't it? Dan Gale's specialist tape secret episode, all about the audiobooks of Bonn. What did

1:00.4

you think about that? Well, I was actually listening to it when I was in the bath, and it got

1:05.5

to the point where I didn't want to leave because it was so good. And the bath water was getting

1:10.0

cold, but I think there wasn't any hot water left.

1:13.7

So I had the option of having to stop it, get out, dry myself and set up elsewhere.

1:19.0

But now I just stayed and got cold and carried on listening.

1:21.8

So you stayed in it all your bits right quickly and then just carried on listening.

1:25.2

Oh, yeah, yeah. Everything.

1:26.1
