From Russia with Love (1963)

ITV4, 9.00PM ★★★★

Ah, those were the days: the certainties of the Cold War, a beautiful Soviet defector and a chase across the Balkans. Will Spectre avenge the death of Dr No? No chance. Sean Connery was in the swing of things in his second outing as Bond, pursued by two of 007’s best adversaries, in “Red” Grant (Robert Shaw) and Rosa Klebb (Lotte Lenya). Terence Young directs.
