Double-O-lympics

Her Majesty has given James Bond a very unique mission this summer: to open the London Olympics with a touch of British flair, charm and intrigue.

Daniel Craig will star in a James Bond short film to be shown during BBC coverage of the Olympics, following a personal invitation from the Queen.

The production was given unprecedented access to Buckingham Palace. Apparently, the film involves 007 parachuting out of a helicopter and into the stadium to kick off the games. Rumour has it that the Queen herself might even make a cameo!

We’re looking forward to being shaken and stirred.
