    Host Richard Jones sits down with fellow Brit Mark O'Connell — Bond expert, BBC commentator, and author — to explore the surprising depth of queer identity woven throughout the James Bond franchise. From Mark's grandfather's three decades as Cubby Broccoli's chauffeur, to a tearful seven-year-old's first encounter with Octopussy, to the deliciously camp world of Diamonds Are Forever, this episode explores this history of 007 as an unlikely beacon of LGBTQ+ representation.
