Description

"The Name's Tea - There's Always Tea!"  I think you will agree that James Bond 007 and his famous phrases make him one of the most iconic characters of our age. Suave, sophisticated, charming, intelligent, strangely brilliant at everything he tries and undeniably irresistible to those who meet him. But who created this larger-than-life character? Ian Fleming, that's who! And what a fascinating man he was. So interesting that we had to split our story into two parts. In this week's part one, we are weaving in and out of Fleming's surprising life, piecing together how he came up with his famous characters like 007, M, and Q, and letting you into a few secrets along the way, as we always do. Both Keith and Nikki are huge "Bond" fans so they know a thing or two about the franchise and the man behind the legacy.  So pour yourself a "Martini - extra dry - shaken not stirred" or a good ole cup of tea and join us as we travel backwards in time and then onto distant exotic islands for a lively chat that will have you learning and laughing. All that's left for me to ask you is "Who's your favourite "Bond?"
