Daniel Craig’s run as the legendary tuxedo-wearing spy, James Bond, kicked off with what might be the best adaptation possible for Ian Fleming’s debut novel. In episode 305, Join Luke Elliott & James Bailey as they explore Martin Campbell’s career, react to the notorious free-running parkour opening sequence, get lost on a runway, react to Eva Green’s performance as Vesper Lynd, ask what makes her so much better than the typical Bond girl, and finally decide which was better: the book or the movie!
