    Never Say Never Again (1983)

    Would the real James Bond please step forward? In this episode Michael & Claire are coming out of retirement but *definitely* showing their age in a sequel was borne out of decades of legal wrangling and is perhaps the very definition of "just because you can, doesn't mean you should" If you haven't seen Sean Connery in 'Never Say Never Again' then you haven't seen James Bond 007! (apparently...) At time of recording Never Say Never Again is available to rent or buy from most digital platforms.
