Dossier #23: The Spy Who Loved Me

Alex and James are joined by returning guest Gez to discuss arguably Roger Moore’s greatest outing as 007. When a nutter with barely noticeable webbed hands plans to start a nuclear war between the US and Russia, apparently the only hope for humanity will be to move under the sea. That is, unless James Bond and KGB agent Anya Amasova can distract themselves from trying to both sleep with and kill each other long enough to save the world.

We discuss the plot, the stunts, the car, the henchmen, the music, the girls, the gadgets, the cameos and all the other elements that make this one of the best classic Bond films (assuming you like a bit of camp ‘70s filmmaking).
