I have just learned that Kevin McClory passed away on Tuesday, November 21st (Wikipedia has November 20).
McClory is well-known to Bond afficianadoes. Credited co-author of the novel Thunderball, he was the producer of the film of that name and of the “rogue” Bond film Never Say Never Again. The history of lawsuits is complex.
May he rest in peace.
I think Never Say Never Again will be broadcast to England as part of itv4’s “Bond Is Back” season on Friday 1 December (usually 10pm, repeated 6pm Saturday, but I’ve not checked).
I don’t know if the US stations that do Bond marathons normally broadcast NSNA.
By the way, MJR, I haven’t forgotten that my format is hard on your eyes. I’ve been searching for a template that has better contrast AND the features I need. I’ll need a good block of time, though, to test and screw up and such.
I think now the rights are all together, it’s easier for stations to include the “rogues” in Bond seasons. I think itv1 even aired the 60s Casino Royale recently.
Thanks about the colour – might be easier to tweak whatever you’re currently using: make the greys lighter and the red text darker.
