Chief of Staff, 007's gone round the bend. Says someone's been trying to feed him a poisoned banana. Fellow's lost his nerve. Been in the hospital too long. Better call him home.

It's finished now, but it was on Flix. Oh, and Telly Savalas was in it too. I watched a bit of it, but turned it over because it wasn't very good. Interesting to see Sir Rog playing a German officer, though!

A good Nazi in that his character is a good person?
Bring back Bond!
