For Your Eyes Only | In-depth Movie Review 

"Forgive me father, for i have sinned" "That's putting it mildly, 007". One of my favourite lines of the series

There's a difference between Bond and Melina in this movie though: Bond is a trained killer where part of his job is revenge, Melina is just an average woman. The two graves comment means he goes into every situation knowing that there's a real possibility that he won't come out of it alive (even though we as the audience know otherwise). He knows that revenge can kill a part of you, whether literally or metaphorically. Not only that, but he sees himself as already damned, he's killed in the name of revenge and as part of his job, and there's no turning back. Whereas Melina had a relatively normal life before the death of her parents, and I don't think Bond wanted Melina to live her life knowing she had killed someone out of hatred.

I understand your critism of the whole Melina's revenge with it always being questioned by Bond. But I've always seen Roger Moore's Bond here as trying to protect Melina because he doesn't want her turning out to be like him: an Assassin. Obviously today it could be perceived sexist but Moore's Bond was the gentlemen just trying to keep Melina innocent.

Somewhere, buried deeply in the FYEO screenplay, is the story of an ageing spy, haunted by all the killing he had to do for queen and country, who's found that avenging the murder of his wife did not give him the peace of mind he so desperately craves and now wants to prevent a young, innocent woman from going down the same path and making the same mistakes he did. It would have been an interesting take on the Bond character, but perhaps a little too interesting for the lighthearted Roger Moore era.

Another detail about the Countess’ death scene is that Bond and Lisl’s outfits look very similar to the outfits Bond and Tracy wore in their first scene together in OHMSS. The fact that the scene is also on a beach makes it seem like they were trying to draw some kind of subtle parallel which may suggest that Bond might’ve had some deeper feelings for her than we would initially assume. Or the producers just put it in as a reference for the diehard fans

THE MAN WITH THE CAKE!? Why haven't I noticed this in my entire 29 years of existence!?

When you had the chorus say “back down to earth” I really felt that. It’s probably the most common phrase spoken about this movie

I guess the "delicatessen in stainless steel" line is the Bond equivalent to "I have the high ground." Nobody knows what it means, and that's why it's so iconic.

Ah yes Julian Glover, he's still around at 85, so perhaps he did drink from the Holy Grail after all?

I always thought the Cassandra Harris sequence was an "emotional echo" of Bond's wife. Both are Countesses. And Bond meets Tracy in a fight on a beach and Lisl is killed in a fight on a beach. And Moore' Bond, like Lazenby's Bond, both wear a white shirt with pleats in the scenes.

Irma Bunt: Shoots Bond's wife, Tracy Everyone: Why would Blofeld do this?

I’ve always agreed with you on the revenge thing being weird but then when watching this video I realized that it opening with him exacting revenge might actually be a very smart move because the reason he’s warning Melina against it is because his revenge didn’t make him feel any better and he doesn’t want Melina to face the same thing

I actually love to think that at this point, after so many of Blofeld's huge schemes failing, his only goal is now to get revenge on Bond, but at the same time, all of his people abandoned him, and now, Blofeld and the helicopter pilot are literally all that remains of Spectre, but he still kills him out of confidence and force of habit.

15:18 It took me years to pick up, but there's an easteregg here! Right before Q and Bond enter the room where Locque is identified, Q enters a code on a keypad. This keypad plays the melody of the first part of "Nobody Does It Better"!

Moore's performance in this film is quite underrated. He was great at playing a light-hearted Bond but he's having to play against his usual instants and does a solid job here.

Fun Fact: There was a legal dispute with the filming of the monestry, and while the Bond Production won, the locals put their washing up, opening windows and tried their hardest to ruin shots. This meant the Bond production team had to compromise, including reluctantly filming a large portion at the 007 stage.

I think it’s kinda of funny how Bond seems more intense in delivering his vengeance for Luigi’s death compared to Blofeld who obviously killed his wife. Compare how he mercilessly kicked Locque of the cliff in the car to his candid dripping of Blofeld into the chimney after slapping his head.

I actually cheered aloud in the theater when I saw Bond lay the flowers on Tracy's grave. I did find it a wee bit odd that Tracy was five years younger than Diana Rigg.

It’s rather unfortunate that a stunt actor actually died on the set. Apparently Paolo Rigoni was in the bobsleigh, which capsized with him trapped underneath, and continued down the track. I believe it’s mentioned on IMDBs trivia for FYEO

A bit strange to see Tywin Lannister being a lacky for Maester Pycelle.

The Havelock man that gets killed is the posh guy that has a daughter that Rodney dates in Only Fools and Horses, the one where Delboy uses a sawn off shotgun in the clay pigeon shoot!!!

Regarding the filmic quality, a part of it was definitely due to the switch in cinematographer. For Your Eyes Only (who would shoot the rest of the Moore Bonds) was shot by Alan Hume. Hume was a very old school British "lighting cameraman" and much of his cinematography is very old school: long masters, flat composition, static camera and hard light. But compared to other "old school" DPs of the time who used old school to their advantage to add drama and contrast (the prime example being Douglas Slocombe's work on the Indy movies), Hume's work lacks that sort of artistry. It's effective for coverage, but seldom "interesting". This is very apparent when you look at his work on Return of the Jedi, which again is flat, static and almost TV-like - and more apparent going from Peter Suschitzky's gorgeous soft light and kinetic work on The Empire Strikes Back (one of the best ever shot films IMO) to Jedi. (Sorry to say such bad things about Hume's work, but you're not the first to bring it up) Also, the budget for For Your Eyes Only wasn't that much lower, about $5 million compared to Moonraker and about $1 million less than The Spy Who Loved Me adjusted for inflation and was actually $8 million higher than Raiders of the Lost Ark.

I love the scene where he says: ill buy your an ice cream

I always had a different view to Bonds "no revange" talking to Melina. I think about it like this... For the last 12 years Bond is trying to kill "The bald villain in a wheelchair" and he does it, at the beginning of the Film. But now he realizes, He killed the man, who killed his wife, but she would not come back, he cant stand trial, so Bonds revange was kinda pointless. So he knows how it feels and he want to prevent Melina of feeling the way he does.

I was answered a question on who was the most efficient Bond villain and after some thinking, I realised it was actually Kristatos. I was originally going to answer Blofeld, but it occurred to me that Blofeld has a massive international criminal empire that has close ties with shady foreign governments and controls multinational corporations...and he loses over and over and over again, and unlike almost every other Bond villain he has no excuses for not just shooting 007 since he knows EXACTLY what he is capable of. Kristatos, meanwhile, runs a fairly small operation, but he's been successfully fooling the British government for decades and he is the only bad guy to manipulate our man into thinking he's actually an ally (without sleeping with him, that is). He plays Bond like a fiddle for half the movie, nearly kills him in the yaucht scene, and would have gotten away with it too if it wasn't for that meddlesome parrot. Bit of trivia, but he appears to have been inspired by an actual person, a Greek arms dealer who worked with the British while hiding his ties with the Nazi's (can't remember the actual guys name though).

I like to think that Max the parrot and the double-taking pigeon got together and are now happily married.

Fun Fact: All of Melina's lines were dubbed but she dubbed herself in the French version of the film.

Some may say the villain was boring, but I think he was also a lot more realistic at the same time. It's a similar thing with Dominic Greene in QoS. Sometimes, I feel that it is refreshing to get a "down to earth" villain like Cristastos or Dominic. Not to mention the awesome soundtrack of this movie!

3:23 I see it as the continuity being: Twice-Diamonds-OHMSS-Eyes only. It's not perfect but would explain why Bond and Blofeld are quite cordial to each other in Diamonds and lets OHMSS flow straight into the pre-credits scene here.

Moore was a fun uncle who delivered crowdpleasing schlock in about the classiest way you could, so I kinda agree. This movie has some fun bits but overall it's a bit boring and they should have waited for the eventual actor change before they downscaled and tried to be more "serious" again.

4:50 Can we get some _Chariots of Fire_ music for that vicar?

Actually, the British have lost nothing - this particular attac device is probably not the only one in their posession. Even if it is, they built one before so they can do so again. The Soviets however wanted to get their hands on the device, which would have compromised British submarines. So it is a complete British success.

Joke of the Day: *Laughs in Soviet

I find it funny that you call Luigi Inspector Clouseau because the village Cortina where Bond goes to meet Luigi is the same village where Clouseau goes to track down The Phantom ( David Niven) in the original Pink Panther

The first appearance of Chrome the parrot, he’d return in The Living Daylights. Fun fact, the actor who played Timothy Havelock also did the voice for Max. FYEO is definitely one of my favorite Bond films and sits squarely in my top 10.

What makes this film strong for me is that it goes back to a more grounded Connery-era Bond. Out of all the Moore films, and I love them all, this is the one that Connery could have played without much difference. It is one of my favorites because it is more realistic. I do wish there had been more snow that year though!

RIP SEAN CONNERY

Favorite bond movie, favorite bond song and my favorite gun barrel opener with the music

You're spot on about the revenge theme being inconsistent but I still love this film. It's one of my favorites. I like the largely gritty and realistic feel. It's a great spy thriller and I love the Fleming touches. Great cast. Moore is at his best. The film is a great introduction to the edgier 80s movies.

The funniest thing I've read in a while "Laughs in Soviet". Ha ha! This was a great jovial review.

"Studied under the great Moonraker pigeon..." LOL :-D Great video, Calvin. Your narrative asides do slay me.

Wonderful, insightful and extremely entertaining as always, young man. I'm in the contingent that ranks FYEO as Favorite Moore 007 for a number of reasons (chiefly for its overall Fleming-esque quality) and have a million opinions on it. But just to address the revenge thing: I'd call it a case of Bond being chivalrous and protective. His die has been cast; he's long lived in a world of violence and will ultimately wind up wherever he winds up, regardless of whether he chooses at this point to dump Blofeld down a smokestack or kick Locque over a cliff. (And certainly Columbo has lived this same kind of life.) Meanwhile, I imagine Bond regarding Melina as young and promising, raging with grief and wading into a world in which she may not survive ("You were lucky once but they are on to you now") -- especially through the eyes of Moore's mature '80s 007, who wants to spare her a potentially dark fate. Even if she lives through her pursuit, she might become haunted by the (forgive me) spectre of death after having taken lives. And yet -- importantly and awesomely -- Melina is never portrayed by the filmmakers as a damsel in distress. She reacts to some of the scarier situations as most of us would (e.g. gasping at the sight of a ghoulish underwater corpse), but she's cool under fire and even able to laugh when Bond jokes during the car chase. And when Bond makes his final plea for Melina to resist vengeance ("That's not the answer"), she doesn't hesitate to tell him to bugger off. It seems clear to me that if Columbo hadn't beaten her to the punch, Melina would've unrepentantly administered the coup de gras to Kristatos the moment Bond stepped aside, which he signaled he was (reluctantly) willing to do. The original intent may very well have been "leave it to the middle-aged men" as you posit, out of some very old-fashioned thinking. But the film generally portrays Melina as a total badass, so maybe not? I do agree that this all could have been presented with greater clarity! Melina represents my favorite archetype of a Bond leading lady: the ordinary person in extraordinary circumstances, a la Hitchcock's best heroes. Fellow Agents are cool, Baddies Turned Good are fun and Kept Women can be intriguing, but I find women like Melina and Natalya Simonova the most appealing. It's always fun to watch brave, resourceful, smart characters rise to the extreme occasion. They're our surrogates, since we know Bond is going to survive every adventure. See? You're not the only one who obsesses over these things. Thanks so much for the brilliance!

Excellent review, throughly enjoyed watching it. Glad you enjoyed the film as well...and finally, someone else who has spotted Q spacing out and a man getting a cake thrown at his face.

Found you recently, and im glad i did, your videos are genuinly just superb

23:37 It's not about eating in high society, it's eating in film and TV. It's very common to have to do multiple takes of a scene, even multiple good ones, so the editor has options later. So if you're an actor in a dining scene, you often need to take imperceptible or pretend bites to preserve continuity in case multiple takes get edited together. On top of that, if you have dialogue you don't want to have to deliver it with your mouth full or force a weird jump cut between eating and swallowing. It also means you don't need to keep replensishing the food for each take and you don't risk messing up your costume or make-up. Lastly, the lights they use for filming can and will make food inedible or else create a perfect breeding ground for bacteria over the course of shooting, so eating the food can make you sick (assuming it's not prop food you can't eat anyways, like in an ad where a steak is blow-torched on its exterior and painted with motor oil so it's looks good on camera).

Great Terry Jones impression, Calvin!

This is the first Bond movie I remember seeing as a child. I was hooked from the moment that I saw Bond hanging on to the helicopter in the opening. I will always have a special place in my heart for this movie.

I love Locque’s demise!

This is one of my favorites of the Bond series, and my favorite Moore performance. He’s far less campy in this one, and truly showcases his layers to his Bond’s character. The scenes with Lisl are great, and when he coldly pushes Locke’s car off the cliff...with Locke still in it. I’m not a huge fan of Moore’s Bond (never have been), but he really brought his acting A-game for this one

Allways a treat to see your reviews 👌

6:07 🤣 That whole bit had me in stitches. Your sense of humor is right up my alloy... Steeeeeeeeeel!!!

Every time I see a helicopter fly over me I just always have to quote Blofeld. “I trust you have a pleasant.... fright!”

Thanks Calvin, a good review on an underrated film, though your observation that ‘Bond films don’t normally do character stories, emotional arcs; these kind of things. This film is so close to having something but it’s just so incoherent and quite botched at the end...’ made me think I’d returned to Spectre for a moment!

GREAT MOVIE!!! Stunning Roger Moore Bond Performance, Beautiful Melania, Cold War return, mountain base climax, the story, all the elements that made Roger’s best bond film. I’d give it an A for all of these perfectly executed. Oh, and my personal Roger Moore Bond Ranking: 7: A View To A Kill (Roger’s weakest performance of 007 by far, looks way too old.) 6/5: The Man With The Golden Gun/Moonraker (Okay, I can’t decide between these two, because I enjoy them both and they’re both such fun! The highlights of the two films are Scaramanga, the exotic locations for both films, and the final act in both. The low points are the lack of good Bond girls in Golden Gun, and Jaw’s softness in Moonraker coming too soon. I would prefer it if Jaws at least killed one person before falling in love.) 4: Octopussy (An unfairly underappreciated film, with good villains, great use of the locations for filming, and I don’t think I can praise the Bond girls enough in Octopussy.) 3: Live and Let Die (Roger’s performance is actually really consistent here, like his other films. It goes in on the black underworld with the cast, the locations, set design, and strategies they use to kill bond and continue heroin smuggling. Oh yeah, and Solitaire.) 2: The Spy Who Loved Me (Some may be surprised to see the film this low, but I rank it here because, well, I think Bond and the Bond girl is great, but I just love the pair in FYEO better. But TSWLM has one of my favorite villain lairs/locations, a great plot, and I don’t even mind Stromberg as the villain that much.) 1: For Your Eyes Only (See above for more details why I love this movie.) And that’s my Roger Moore ranking!

That helicopter at the end was Polish, not Soviet, called "Świdnik". The pilot also was Polish (still alive) and I remember an interview with him, he told they flew in a week (it's a far lenght from Poland to Greece). I also add, Poland was over USSR control (not so communistic but not so free).

Am I only one who thinks that Bond and Melina have great chemistry and their joint scenes (espically the one in Corfu) are probably among the best "romantic" scenes in the series?

You had me Cracking up on the Parrot Im The root of You Pain.

I love this film. Good review as always! One point I'd like to add... I think when 007 says "Goodbye Contessa" to Lisl it is meant to hark back to Tracy.

FYEO was definitely Moore's best. Octopussy and AVTAK are pretty underrated too

I never liked this movie when I was younger but it's really grown on me over the years. Growing up with the Brosnan movies and games, I could never wrap my head around Moore's portrayal of Bond, but he does bring a lot to the character

19:29. I think the "Bond is mourning for Tracy" theme may also be informing his lack-luster libido in this film.

This was the first Bond movie I watched when I was 8 yrs old and still like it .

I’m a purist. It’s my favorite Moore movie. Yes, “down to Earth” is a hoary cliche, but it’s true. I can watch it over and over, and refreshing change from Moonraker, which I disliked immensely.

Thanks for introducing me to James Bond Calvin! When I finally got all the films on dvd I was sometimes more excited to watch your reviews than the movie itself. Glad I'll be able to experience a new movie in the cinemas soon (or that's what we hope). Oh btw, my fav bond movie is Majesty's.

For Your Eyes Only was a bit bland and not suited to Roger Moore's Bond. It was a picture of the 80's and a bit uninteresting. It's not Rogers best (The Spy Who Loved Me for me). Probably not a popular opinion but it ranks lower half of the series for me. I think Moore's age was partly to blame for his last three being poor and bland. He should have bowed out with the escapist fun of Moonraker and they should have give it to Dalton around this point because FYEO would have suited him far better . .

You perfectly captured all my reservations about this film-those I could have told you myself, and those I wouldn’t even have been able put in words.

My god this might be the best yet! Your cutaway edits and gags are as always hysterical.

I think a case can be made that actually Moore’s peak for playing the character of James Bond was this and Octopussy before falling off a cliff with VTAK

For Your Eyes Only was the very Bond film I ever saw. I was about 8 years old and all I can remember was being very confused, but I was hooked by the Lotus Esprit, even though it hardly does anything in this movie but blow up!

For Your Eyes Only (1981) is my favorite James Bond film ever made!!! 😊❤️

I love how Bond was able to perfectly describe a person he only got a brief glimpse of. I mean he talks about the colour of his eyes and the kind of spectacles he was wearing. Even though he probably would've seen Locque for 5 seconds at most. And it was from a distance too!

29:32 Oxygen and helium is in fact an option for submarine atmospheres. It was also considered for the Mercury and Gemini spacecrafts before they settled on pure oxygen at ~4psi.

They actually really deeply modified the Citroens, with new suspension and a whole different, more powerful engine. They were still slow. Also when the movie came out Citroen sold a "007 Edition" 2CV. It looked like the one in the movie, including a number of bullet-hole-stickers.

Awesome review as always Calvin 😁. FYEO used to be my favourite Moore film, but as times gone on and I've grown softer to the more outlandish films in the series and Moore himself, FYEO has gone down on my list quite a bit. There's some great stuff in the film for sure, especially in the first half, the scores great, the action is phenomenal and the mountain climbing is amazing. But a lot of the film after Bond kicks the car off the cliff is just kinda, meh. Especially the under water stuff which drags like hell. It's a very middle of the road Bond film for me and definitely fades into the background when it's surrounded by films such as Moonraker, Spy Who Loved Me and Octopussy (all of which I love btw.) However I can't wait for your Octopussy review as I absolutely adore that film and its one of my favourites in the series. Keep up the amazing work Calvin 👊

I have been waiting for this review from you, sir, so long. Thank you Mr. Dyson.

Your Mrs Lomax persona sounds like a character from the League of Gentleman XD

YESSSSSSSSSS!!!! I wasn’t even ready for this!!!! I love you and your reviews!!!! This is my favourite Roger Moore film!!!!

I considered For Your Eyes Only as quite amusing and enjoyable movie but final scene with Bond and Melina actually ruins whole experience for me. I truely priaise their (almost) father-doughter relation, and I find their romance out of place

I absolutely LOVE this movie and have since childhood. It's great to see Moore p star in a more serious Bond movie. It's actually my second favorite Bond movie overall.

I really loved this one. After the outlandish lunacy of Moonraker (the pigeon doing double takes as the gondola blasts by, the systematic raping of the character of Jaws and using laser guns to cynically cash in on Star Wars - Moonraker is inexcusable) a good old fashioned Cold War thriller with a revenge B plot was exactly the tonic that made me enjoy the series again.

I always have and always will love this one. So many amazing set pieces.

I always understood the driver's commentary of Bond and Melina on the chariot as a simple joke around language misunderstanding. Nothing much. Of course, you're right as to the talk between Bond and Melina. It's a serious exchange. She's grieving and wants answers. He says let me find them for you. What the driver says, in my mind, really has nothing to do with it, because ya, that's the little joke, he doesn't get the conversation, but he sees only the body language, a man and a woman, seemingly a couple on his chariot, fighting about. The woman frustrated and wanting to get off, the man keeping her and insisting on going on. In the end, they get to an understanding and she stays for him. All is well. That's how the driver sees it, really like this romantic cliché scene and so he says "oh love" and its ways line.

Maybe I need to revisit this one myself soon but as much as I prefer the more grounded Bond films, I think FYEO goes just a hair too far into "realism" and I find it, as a whole, kind of boring. Realism is great when it works (i.e. FRWL, LTK, and Casino Royale); Not every plot needs to involve world domination and not every villain needs to be a Goldfinger or Blofeld but Kristatos suffers from being in the same vein as the Brad Whittaker's of the franchise in that he's just forgettable. Columbo is an okay ally but, again, he doesn't really stand out when compared to other allies in the series and Melina is far and away the best thing in this film. FYEO doesn't do anything overtly wrong but it's never clicked with me; it's just there and I certainly don't see it as Moore's best film as some fans have said. Heck, I'd probably rank AVTAK over this and considering I just mentioned my tonal preference, that's saying something...

This was the best "good evening Mr. Bond fans" yet - except you KIND of overshot the landing!

I have this as one of my favourite Roger Moore Bond films, but when it comes down to watching it I either enjoy the experience or constantly annoyed but the narrative of the film, so I agree with you. I must add though Roger Moore gives another superb performance of 007!

A slightly clunky fight by the side of the pool 🤣🤣🤣

There were two Bond films I was hoping you’d like a bit more since you started the in-depth re-reviews, FYEO and LTK. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed this one much more. It’s still a Bond movie to it’s core, it’s just more grounded, which for a Moore Bond film it does well until we get back to exotic locals and fantasy with Octopussy. Here’s to hoping you’ll like LTK more too!

6:55 I always wondered how The Living Daylights would have played out had Moore stuck around, as Dalton's Bond has the line: "The Foie Gras is excellent."

I love this movie. You can Keep Daniel Craig Bonds. I love Rogers sense of humour. Great movie.

'it's the singer, not the song' as they say. and this is personified by the car chase. this film focuses on the driver, not the car; the man, not the gadgets; anyone could save the world with a supercar/submarine hybrid and mounted wrist-guns, but only james bond can save the world with a 2CV and a shoelace. i can't help but feel this was directly related to john glen's input: iirc, he he moved into the role after working as a 2nd unit director from earlier bond films, who have much more defined working parameters than a director, so he had a track record of working efficiently and getting more bang for your buck (as proven by 5 films before the end of the decade).

Bond telling Melina not to go out for revenge comes from his pain over Tracy's murder, to not let Melina to get tainted by this more than she has to and long experience have to kill for a living, the sleigh scene does not mean they are in love but have reached a beautiful understanding that they are allies, she now trusts him and he will help her no matter what. The sound effects at the beginning of the ski chase are as brilliant as you say, though his Olin Skis (great ad placement) are actually that good. You are absolutely NOT overthinking any of this, which is why your videos are so good. The Blu-ray transfer is not as representative of how great this film looks as good as it is (though the titles look a little darker in your clip then they should vs. the music video version,) so let's hope any upcoming 4K version fixes that, though the Bonds are all so well shot, it takes 4K to represent them properly. Especially after Brexit, the Thatcher joke(s) are as relevant as ever. This has some of the greatest moments and sequences the series has or will ever have, which is one of many reasons it is one of my all-time favorites.

“She used to be a man!” -Calvin Dyson’s original review of For Your Eyes Only. I remember that.

The production value keep going higher and higher.....keep up the great job, Calvin. Truly nobody does it better....

FYEO is definitely in my top 5 and I remember recording the music through the TV with a tape recorder when I was young (oh, the shame!). The film has action sequence after action sequence: helicopter, mine, air attack, Villa raid, 2CV, ski jumping, motorbikes, horrific beach collision, warehouse raid, car over cliff, underwater scuffle, motorboating scene (no, not *that* kind!), rock climbing.... Definitely a more punchy film than previous ones which to me seem occasionally draggy, and almost a total lack of gadgets - except for the watch at the end "give us a keee-yus". The editing is nice and snappy and I don't think it looks "TV", but may lack the patina of the previous films, granted. In the ski chase, I never noticed how the cake in the face bit is so...violent! It's as if the waitress has been waiting for an excuse to get her own form of revenge on this potentially awkward customer and turns and throws it at him with such malice (maybe even shouting "f*£& you" as she does so)! It's like she's been waiting for such an opportunity/distraction to really slam it at him, and Bond crashing through the cafe was just the chance she was waiting for! Great review as always Calvin, keep them coming, RIP Sean x.

The ski-chase in the bobsled-run sticks out in 007-history as, iirc, the only sequence so far where someone died in real life, with one of the stuntmen suffering a fatal accident.

I miss the reoccurring joke of the Delicatessen on Stainless Steel throughout your original review of this film.

I'd like to visit Roger's deli and order his A View to a Kill quiche (omelette) special!

Carole Bouquet was one of the first celebrities to have an endorsement deal with a beauty/fashion brand. In her case Chanel (exceedingly rare in those days)

6:06 If I remember correctly, in the German dub, Blofeld offers Bond his house… on Bond Street. Which is a whole can of worms in itself.

So many points for the Weird Al reference
