It was a good film, from what I can remember. I'd watch it again on DVD.

I didn't see it at the cinema but I have watched Skyfall at least twice on the TV. I tend to watch Bond films whenever they are on unless they start late, which is often. I think they put them on fairly late then plaster loads of adverts into them which extends them over half an hour.

On Sunday I watched 'From Russia with Love' as it was on in the afternoon on TV. A good Sean Connery!

My favourite spy parody: Johnny English. LOL (Yes, I like Mr Bean. It took me a while to sit still long enough to watch him, but then I found my sense of humour lying around and loved it. Hee hee.)

I have the Daniel Craig Casino Royale in my DVD collection, plus Skyfall. I should just start collecting the Bond movies from Timothy Dalton onwards, at the least.

I don't picture David Niven as Bond, but that's because I'd seen him in other movies before I really paid attention to James Bond. Looking at his credits on IMDB, I'm seeing bachelor Mother looks familiar (with Ginger Rogers! yay!) and also The Bishop's Wife. And did anyone know he played the Scarlet Pimpernel? Woo hoo!

Don't mind me, love old movies!

I completely am in love with that film. It has such memories and nostalgia. Special times.

I always like watching Rowan Atkinson on the screen. Whether it's Mr Bean or Johnny English, I know what's going to happen but I still laugh the same all the time.

I liked Mr Bean too. The original set of programs was very good and I can watch them over and over. There is a cartoon version on these days but, although it's good, it isn't a patch on the original.

I know I'm not Mr Bean myself, but I cringe when watching it. So I don't watch it.

I used to cringe at Mr Bean, but now I just laugh at how silly it all is.

The kids and I tried the cartoon version. The youngest liked it, but that was it. Haven't remembered to put it on again. (Oops, poor kid being the youngest!)

He has been in the paper regarding strife with neighbours before too, if I remember rightly.

One of the reasons I don't read celebrity gossip type rags I don't want to know what kind of p.i.t.a these people are I just want to be able to be entertained and enjoy their 'art'

I have registered with the online A-Level course. I have also booked a night's respite at the house of someone I know. I also shall be staying in town at a travel lodge with a good friend. We shall be going shopping and Tenpin bowling, which I am looking forward to.

I am keeping busy!
