Man in a Suitcase: Somebody Loses, Somebody... Wins? (1.19, ITC, 1968)
"Mr. McGill, I was told that you do dangerous work for money. I offer you dangerous work - and I offer you money in proportion."
"What proportion?"
"Name your price."
"Ok. I get a legitimate visa. I travel under my own name, using my own passport. I'll obey every law in the book. And if I smell the slightest aroma of trouble, baby, I'm heading home. And if I locate your brother, it's gonna cost you twenty thousand dollars, plus expenses. And if I don't locate your brother... it'll cost you twenty thousand dollars, plus expenses."
"Those are difficult terms."
"Do me a favour, turn me down."

Jan Read had ended up writing for#show through pure coincidence (his Spanish wife did some language work on 1.16 The Man Who Stood Still) but his script is the show at its#sharpest‚ wittiest‚ darkest and most cutting. Jac Pearce‚ having forged a genuine friendship with Bradford on 1.7‚ returned in a bigger#role as a former love of McGill's who may or may not have defected. cue a bitterly nihilistic study of the collateral victims of the cold#war‚ as a job in East Berlin gets murkier and more complicated. it's beautifully written‚ but wonderfully played too; the pair have genuine#chemistry‚ and you really feel like in another world they could have made it work together. sobs. maybe next time round.

The 25th anniversary Bond film and first Bond film since Roger Moore retired, The Living Daylights premiered on July 31, 1987. Pierce Brosnan was set to take on the Bond mantle when at the last moment, the makers of the TV show Remington Steele decided to capitalize on all the Bond buzz and hold him to a new season of the cancelled show. This was a failure as the new season only managed 6 episodes before cancelling. The failed season also prevented Steele costar Stephanie Zimbalist from taking a major role in the sci fi blockbuster Robocop. Brosnan was replaced by Timothy Dalton who had decided to pass on the role years earlier because at the time he felt he was too young. However, he only made one more movie before the franchise was forced into hiatus. After years of limbo, Dalton decided to move on and Brosnan was once more offered the role. The Living Daylights and the following Dalton movie both protrayed a Bond closer to the novels, possibly the closest till the Daniel Craig era years later. Following the success of the Duran Duran theme for View to a Kill, Ah-Ha of "Take on Me" fame was tapped for the theme song. Besides the darker and violent take on the character, the movie also had a couple of scenes of actual nudity outside of the opening credits (including Virginia Hey of Farscape). Long time iconic Bond composer John Barry made a cameo as a conductor in the movie. Walter Gotell returned as General Gogol (The Spy Who Loved Me, Moonraker, For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy and A View to a Kill), Robert Brown as M (Octopussy and A View to a Kill) and Desmond Llewelyn as Q (every previous Bond film except Dr No and Live and Let Die). For the first time in the series, the role of Moneypenny was taken over by Caroline Bliss. Previously, since the first film Dr No, the role of Moneypenny had been played by Lois Maxwell making her the most consistent actor to play a role in the Bond franchise. The title and opening teaser was based on a Bond short story written by Ian Fleming. ("The Living Daylights" movie event)
