The latest episode of the JAMES BOND COCKTAIL HOUR is out now!

If you are new to this blog, I also co-host a podcast on James Bond called The James Bond Cocktail Hour. Every episode, we do a review of one of the books and one of the movies, picked at random. 

In our latest episode, my co-host Hugh, I and our mate Graeme review MOONRAKER (Lewis Gilbert, 1979), the fourth film to star Roger Moore.


Bond goes to space, Graeme ponders whether Moore really is merrier and Tim manages to offend Brazil and the city of New Orleans in this review of 1979's Moonraker!
