- First broadcasted on April 3, 2010.
Dramatisation of Ian Fleming's classic novel. When James Bond begins his pursuit of an international criminal, he discovers that a daring heist is on the agenda - and mass murder.
Ian Fleming's 1959 novel faithfully dramatised by Archie Scottney and directed by Martin Jarvis. Toby Stephens returns as 007, and a glittering cast is led by Ian McKellen in the title role. With cameo roles by top actors - all delighted to contribute to this remarkable Fleming adventure. Rosamund Pike plays wacky gang-boss Pussy Galore and Lisa Dillon is the vengeful Tilly Masterton. John Standing returns as 'M.' Tom Hollander, Tim Pigott-Smith and American star Hector Elizondo as New York City mobsters. Bond and Goldfinger are joined in the famous golf game by Alistair McGowan as the caddie, Hawker. Henry Goodman, Ian Ogilvy and Lloyd Owen contribute to the excitement. And Jon David Yu throws his bowler-hat with deadly effect as 'Oddjob.'
Auric Goldfinger is not only a cheat at canasta and golf, he's also an international criminal on a massive scale. His obsession: gold. James Bond is charged by the Bank of England and MI5 to discover what Goldfinger is actually doing with his vast hoards of gold. Is he somehow connected with SMERSH - the feared soviet spy-killing organisation? When 007 becomes an undercover member of Goldfinger's team he soon learns that the madman's plans are more grandiose than even 'M' could possibly have imagined. Amazingly, robbing Fort Knox is on the agenda - and mass murder...

ENJOY! - บันเทิง
That time when Gustav Graves and Miranda Frost from _Die Another Day_ played James Bond and Pussy Galore in the radio adaptation of _Goldfinger._
This ensamble is way better that any cast put on the Bond films. It’s just too good to be true!
Graves and Miranda reunited
Perfect audio.
Thanks for the upload.
Now to find Shirley Bassey singing "Goldfinger" to make the ninety minutes complete.!!
You're welcome😄

Love the radio presentations.
Great acting & production.

Timothy Flyte some best actors in the world doing this one.plus true to the novel
44:00 Clever way of working the famous movie line into the book adaptation.
This makes me think the novels would adapt better into a tv series on HBO or Netflix.
rdchannels maybe Eon will sell the rights once Craig is gone
I agree I think they'd be especially effective as. Pieces as well!
I love the Bond Series.... all things Bond.
However... the books did make me view the films are cardboard comics into relationship to Fleming himself.
Most certainly should, all the candid moments of Bond are what makes these stories.... a Television show would give us an opportunity to slow down stop relying on the "shaken not stirred" and cheekie jokes.
My favorite element of this novel (unsure if it's in this adaptation) is Bond in the office on the graveyard shift reading over a desk lamp.
really only works in that time period
Geoffrey Yinghunan I'm with you on that!
Fantastic artists! Thanks!
I have the full set of unabridged audio novels. It’s great to hear another version other than those & the movies. These are superb. Thank you for uploading
Do you not like your set?
@@dannwan8537 I love my set. 👍🏼👍🏼❤️
Wonderful cast , fantastic direction . Absolutely Splendid . ❤️

Brilliant Thank you...
You're very welcome😉
I rode bike 11 miles at 11 years old to see the first 3 (and by far best) bond movies (w/o parents' knowledge). I'm as nostalgic as anyone. These were always fun.
That said, it must be admitted (at 68) that there's a lot that's really dumb about this story (and this radio production). Still listening to them all, anyway. :-)
Toby Stephens and Sir Ian McKellan, the two sexiest blokes on the stage. BTW, Stephens is the best Bond... he was brilliant as the baddie in the one with Madonna, but he should have been the screen Bond.
Anthony Riley Absolutly! He should take up the mantel! However, I fear the Bond character will bow to social pressures.
Try comparing Stephen's excruciatingly mannered delivery
with McKellen's effortless masterclass .? Still , he is good looking which is apparently all that
counts nowadays.
@@2msvalkyrie529 They’re playing two completely different characters. To be so dismissive is a bit short-sided, and saying, basically, at least he’s pretty is just really condescending. He’s an incredible actor in his own right. His portrayal of Captain Flint in Black Sails is possibly the best long-form acting I’ve ever seen. He would’ve made a brilliant Bond, had he not played Graves.
Time to face destiny...
Time to face gravity!
Really enjoyed! Thanks.
Excellent...thanks
Still surprises me how close the film is to the book.
Sadly only the first four films, on her majesties secret service, the living daylights, and Casino Royale have anything to really do with the novels they are based on.
@@warrenrhinerson6373
Casino Royale 2006 is a great modern adaptation of the book.
@@warrenrhinerson6373
Also OHMSS is very close to the original novel.
@@warrenrhinerson6373
Fleming's Thunderball is a novelization based on an original script.
@@mohammadmostafa9215 I actually said that. I said “only the first four films, on her majesty’s secret service l, the living daylights, and Casino Royale have anything really to do with the novels they are based on” the first four films are Dr No, from Russia With Love. Goldfinger and Thunderball
James Bond is not my type of audio podcast to listen to however i was pretty impressed with this, maybe due to the cast or the story, either way i certainly enjoyed it. Another one that i have also been surprisingly hooked onto is Sherlock Holmes on Podbean, brilliant, some great stories and we'll worth anybody time
What a fab story
Sir Ian McKellen did a great job voicing Goldfinger and did just as good Great Frobe as well if not better.
Gert Frobe was dubbed😎
You can tell he was enjoying himself!
Awesome , Thank you for this : )
Welcome😉
Like this? Check out Toby Stephens in the BBC radio series on Philip Marlowe
His Marlowe is even worse than his Bond - difficult to believe .!
Can only assume he knows all
the right people at Beeb.
I find it funny that Rosamund Pike is Pussy Galore and Toby Stephens is Bond lol
I think that Pike is perfect for the role
@@mohamadmostafa2987 Yeah! She did a great job!
Great idea...
regardless of a favorite bond story, all must admit that goldfinger conjures many more visual images, by far, than any of the others
Fantastic please tell me what order do they run
What a cast, as said elsewhere here, much better than any of the filns, and Toby Stephens IS James Bond
totally agree with you there
It's incredible. He didn't work as a goofy villain in Die Another Day, and now we see why; he's a better Bond!
Love to hear fine quality radio, music Shirley B.
Maybe you could do a few seconds of introduction? Maybe, thank you from Tombstone Az.🌵🌹
YIKES! PG deflowered by her uncle! @,@
M’s office actually on the 9th floor, 00 office on 8th . Amazed me he never used stairs to go up one floor. Not to be encouraged
Hello, may I have the lady's name of the narrating voice from 00:56? thanks xxx....
Hilariously camp portrayal of Goldfinger, even continuing to call him "Mr Bond" whilst being throttled to death. McKellen still excellent in the role, though.
oh he can read the phone book and it can sound delectable
The US gangsters are camp beyond parody!
Lol. You cant hide that English Accent when talking like a Texan.Good job though! Great show!
Is this accurate to the book
Yes, it is very accurate. There is obviously more detail and depth of character in the book but these BBC James Bond radio plays are all pretty decent and faithful adaptations of the source material.
Mr. Dupont doesn't sound like old money from Delaware. He sounds like a third rate BBC parody of an American.
Yes. BBC Radio Drama's biggest
failing .I'm British and it jars just
as much with me.!
He said right off the bat that he wasn’t one of the chemical DuPonts, so why are you complaining about his accent? Silly boy.
Basically because it was the usual
ludicrous parody of an American
accent . It's irrelevant whether he
was a " chemical du Pont " or
not.
Is it just me or does Felix sound a bit strange in this one? Did they use a different voice actor?
53:08
It's not that faithful a dramatization
41
So the voice of Gustav Graves along with his wife, his voice of Gandalf the Grey from the Hobbit franchise & her voice of Miranda Frost have live to Die Another Day. Anyone else?
Can someone tell me the song off the little boy on the plane, while bond gets up on the plane?
If you can give me the time it's on ( I can't look again , today , myself ) I'll let you know 🙏🏼👍🏼
Christine Thornhill It’s at 45:01
‘Oh,For the wings of a Dove’
@@philnewton-england7795 Thank you so much for the answer! You're super helpful!
Matthias Dumke No problems. I know you asked months ago but I’ve only just found out about these radio plays. 🤣
Is it sad that not only do I prefer a dirtier, ruthless, mercenary Bond as a spy, but that I'm hoping, being only ten minutes in, that after Bond has recounted having met Goldfinger, I want his Control to insist on the correct disclosure forms being done?!
That I like tedious realism as well as a good story?!
And that I certainly don't like cheesy Hollywood glossiness and all that style!?
...how can they be 'all square' after seventeen holes?
Won eight holes each and halved one.....
Halved each hole...
Haha, it really dates all this, the gold standard still applying, 20 million pounds being a sum that gets the British security services worried, etc!
These days 20 million is nothing, both numerically, and, materially, nothing.
And that Odd-job is "one of three" blackbelts in the world in a little known martial art, Karate!
And I'm sure there will be countless others too tedious to list
I've noticed these adaptations cut out the worst of Fleming's prejudice. In the novel, DuPont mentioned that his hotel was "restricted". That was a polite way of saying "No Jews allowed".
To bad its not like that anymore. We need entire contries that are "restricted"
@@crimsondeath7468 go away you dog
How was Fleming responsible for the prejudice of the era?
@@crimsondeath7468 Yeah, restricted to people like you.
Also no blacks and no Irish, usually.
Tony Stephens ludicrously mannered delivery of every line
ruins the whole thing. He should have learned from his
father .
Chauvinistic and fairly useless Bond,allowing 2 dead females and the language "run youfool"etc,unconvincing .plot and acting . McKellen shot himself through the foot with this garbage,didn't realise what a poor writer Fleming was.
