Mate, I love love loved this video! You're a born presenter too. Fantastic stuff. I must say I was a little surprised to see some of the stuff go for their low-end estimates! You really have to be in it to win it. I hope we'll one day find out if you nabbed anything?? All the best.
Thanks so much, matey! I did manage to scoop up the QoS wallpaper and the International Decommissioning folder and Water Jet Powerboat Diagnostics Dry Lab System computer screen from TWINE, so didn't leave empty-handed!
Having watched this video, what you said about the swimming fins caught my attention so I dug out my blu-ray of Thunderball (any excuse really!😁) as I was sure that Bond (Connery & doubles) wore Voit Viking swimming fins very similar in look to the Voit Skin Divers featured in your video. I'm a bit relieved to say (as I own a pair of Voit Vikings) that I was right, as are several other collectors I know of who have Voit Vikings in their collection, including David Zaritsky who will be familiar to many. You can clearly see the Viking ship emblem in a number of shots featuring Bond during the climactic battle. However on watching Thunderball again it seems, from my observations, that the orange clad special forces or whatever they were, the good guys, wore a mixture of both Voit Vikings and Voit Skin Divers. So while they were featured in Thunderball they weren't actually worn by Bond. I'm posting this in case others out there thought as I did that they weren't the right fins, they are in fact still Thunderball fins.
Good Video Mate. The Opening could have been it's own Short Film!
Thanks, Jude! Have you seen the other videos that we've done? I really enjoy having my little Bond homages as Pre-Titles sequences. Big kid, really!

Thanks for the update, Andrew!
Fantastic video loved the PTS
Thanks, Barry! They are a real giggle to make!
Your intros are fantastic!
Oh thanks, Sam! I just love getting the chance to get my geeky Bond on!
Terrific - love the intro 009!
Cheers, Mark! They're always my favourite bit to film!
20:25 interesting that the costume has the incorrect name - should say Joe not John Don Baker.
I just reckon that Berman's had a clerical error. As Le Chiffre said, "Nothing sinister"....
