Albion Is Not Enough | London as seen in 1999's 'James Bond: The World Is Not Enough' [Episode 147]
In 1999's 'The World Is Not Enough' starring Pierce Brosnan as 007, we see a stunning boat chase down the Thames in the opening minutes of the movie. This was the first time we really see London used in a major action piece in a James Bond movie. In this episode, I talk to a number of fellow Bond fans about their favourite moments of this chase, give my own take, and talk about the significant sights.You can watch the chase for yourself on the Official 007 Youtube page:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_iBmG5Y_BUThank you to the contributors, who you can find on Instagram:Donnie over at 'Quantum of History'Daniel Gaster at 'Daniel Gaster' Roland Hulme at 'Roland Hulme'David Zaritsky at 'The Bond Experience'Ken at 'Oceansographer'...and Pete Brooker at 'From Tailors With Love'The first time I took the helm of a Royal Navy ship was actually along much of this route, heading down the Thames from near Tower Bridge, and along past the Millennium Dome (now the O2). Now, when I see the chase, it brings back that very happy (if now distant) memory. I'm looking forward to attending the Q the Music concert on October 15th, and will be meeting up with friends before hand.
