About this episode
On this episode of The James Bond A-Z Podcast hosts Tom Butler, Brendan Duffy, and Tom Wheatley further explore the life and work of Timothy Dalton, the fourth actor to play James Bond in the movies. Covered in the first part of this two-part special: 'Licence To Kill', the James Bond that took the series in a bold new direction, but would ultimately be Dalton's last outing as 007. Timothy's performances after 'Licence To Kill' which he did while he waited for his third Bond film to come unstuck from its legal mire, including the excellent 'The Rocketeer'. The legal troubles that stymied Timothy's third Bond film, and the decisions that led to his exit from the series in 1994 ahead of 'GoldenEye'. We look at Dalton's relationship with Cubby Brocolli and Eon after his departure, and what he's said about the subsequent 007 actors Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig. We explore Dalton's renaissance among Bond fans and the general public, first with the reappraisal of his two 007 films, and then his pop culture performances in 'Hot Fuzz', 'Doctor Who', 'Toy Story 3', 'Chuck', 'Penny Dreadful', 'Doom Patrol' and more.
