Fleming introduced many new innovative cultural firsts: 1. Fleming used to report in the situation while happening rather than about the situation: beginning of Gonzo Journalism which Hunter Thompson lifted. 2. Flemings careful attention to "brands" like Bentley, Ritz Carlton, Ronson lighters, Dior dresses, was the beginning of brand positioning in art. 3. Flemmings casual sexual escapades and misogyny surrounded by gadgets was inspiration for Hefner and Playboy magazine. He was at the forefront of a cultural sexual revolution.

It just occurred to me that Bonds first antagonist is “The Number” and Bond himself is known to his government by a number. Likely not a coincidence.

Flemming uses adjectives like I've never heard before. Very good writer and what a life.

I have a tape of Ian Fleming and Raymond Chandler comparing their characters. Somewhere.

I'd read he did it to recover from being married.

Brilliant! Many thanks.

THANKS

While entertaining, the idea of a flashy, attention-grabbing "secret" agent makes no sense. In reality, JB would have been a liability to any agency he worked for. Real spies are invisible. They operate in the shadows and draw no attention. They often hide in plain sight. Tinker Tailor is the real set up. Procedural, plodding, full of crossed Ts and dotted i's. It is anonymous work. No medals, but maybe a small pension. Guiness really brought this out as George Smiley, in Lecarre's work. The quiet resignation tonthe idea that sgents were comprimised and killed because of a mistep, is truly disturbing.

What an absolutely great documentary. The BBC used to be so good.

IF's knowledge of the geo-politics of his time is impressive.

If I were him in that position I couldn't resist wearing a ridicolous hat or so. ^^

Avocados are NOT pears. They may be "pear " shaped, as are some women. Avocado are in the Laurel family. Pears are in the Rose family. Saying so reveals your plebeian status.

gee only 56 imagine that

He was quite prescient about China.

Wauw!!!

Thank you so much for uploading and making this available.

The tobacco killed him.

Love love love love

Very good documentary. It mentions how bothered Brits were by the decline of British power and influence. I think this was manifested most strongly in You Only Live Twice, in which the Brits show resentment towards America for viewing Asia as under their sphere of influence, not Britain's. Tiger Tanaka doesn't hesitate to point out the decline of the British Empire to Bond. Bond replies defensively that it was a Brit who had conquered Everest, and Brits were still winning Olympic medals. Fleming didn't think much of the CIA, Felix Leiter notwithstanding.

60 years ago, British author Ian Fleming had spent his last visit to Oracabessa on the North shore of Jamaica as the "Commander" regularly overwintered at "Goldeneye" as clockwork, arriving in late December and back in England by late March. Fleming was determined to spent his spring/summer of 1964 between his house in Sevenhampton, London and the small cottage at St Margaret's Bay right beside the white cliffs near Dover. A perfect place to visit the nearby Royal St George Golf Club in Sandwich, hoping to become club Captain in 1965. It was not to be, the summer of 1964 was tragic as his mother died in July and Ian Fleming passed away in August...

That man redefine the possibilities of what you could do with a piano

Like two different songs there, but YOU decide...

He was great no question. With a very few exceptions today they all stink.

My favvvv is :I AM WHAT I AM""..Think about that Pal....

Better rhan most until his very end...!! Real king

Intelligent, articulate. How people were back then.

His personal life had nothing to do with his talent and God given gift of music.

Ian Fleming was actually issued a Colt 1908, .25 in WWII. He kept it after the war and it is listed in his estate. Serial number 257024 . See COLT FORUM for details. The gun is listed as a Browning .25 , however the serial number does not match a Browning. I does match a Colt made in 1920. However Flemings gun could have been a FN, made in Belgium with an identical serial number as the Colt .25 ...

So much talent and beautiful wavy hair

Excellent!

Oh, yeah........

Great to see the whole interview, only clips were previously available on YT

Best of the best

With the ever-lasting cigarette

Gene is brilliant: even when Randy pauses, he never lets the mic waver, he knows there's still gas in the Savage tank.

Should have questioned Ian about the 1942 Dieppe Invasion. It was a complete fail with a 98 per-cent causality rate for Canadian troops. Fleming was a major planner😮

Very trad. Time has moved on.

Marvellous

I was lucky enough to have played Barrymore in "I Hate Hamlet" and used this clip as a reference. I love how you can see him transform, as if he were transported back to his prime when he played Hamlet.

Wonderful documentary and a must-watch for any bond/Fleming fan
