Slow TV: The Worst James Bond Movie
In Slow TV news, I’m taking a break this month from filming farming in meticulous detail to take you to a tourist trap in Switzerland. The World of James Bond museum sits atop Schilthorn in the Berner Oberland region because that’s where they filmed that one 007 movie with Telly Savalas. You might remember Telly Savalas from his classic Visit Duluth TV spot. George Lazenby starred as James Bond. You won’t remember him at all.
Poor George Lazenby. In spite of the odds, he’s made the most of the franchise given his time spent there. Apparently he still sires all the Bond girls at the conventions according to Jim Jeffries. A healthy sex life at that age is a sign of true grit and character. Besides, Her Majesty’s is far from the worst one. I’d maybe even put it in the top seven.
I would argue that On Her Majesty’s Secret Service is actually the best James Bond film. But this thing with the tourists posing with their finger guns next to a sad cutout of George Lazenby? That’s the worst.
That’s what I was gonna say but I didn’t want to step out. I remembered it being solid.
Here’s some Slow Telly.
