Alex and James cast their eyes outwards from the established Bond casts and try to imagine other actors, actresses, directors and composers in a Bond role. Not just potential other 007s, but Ms, Qs, Moneypennys, villains, and more.

For this exercise, we each chose two films and tried to imagine who would be involved with them if they were made in a different time. What would a 1980s Goldfinger look like? A Guy Ritchie-directed Live & Let Die? And, inevitably, a Christopher Nolan Bond film?

Listen to our choices, and then have a go yourself: email your reskinned Bond film choices to bondandbeyondpod@gmail.com or comment under this episode's post on our Bond & Beyond Facebook page.

In this bumper-sized episode, Alex and James guide you through the history of every Bond adventure and the impact they had on the careers of their stars.

From major villains to Bond girls to bit parts and cameos, we explore every notable name that appears throughout the series, whether it was at the height of their fame or the beginning of the decline. You'll be amazed at how many other series, films and TV shows are connected to Bond in more ways that one.

James and Alex are joined by Josh Trett of Trett Films, a filmmaker and fellow Bond fan, to discuss the visual language of Bond.

Josh and his brother were contracted by Ian Fleming Publications to create a trailer promoting Charlie Higson's excellent Bond novella On His Majesty's Secret Service - but without the usual iconography and familiar elements many fans will know from the films.

We discuss this challenge with Josh, ponder what images instantly conjure the idea of Bond in a reader's or viewer's mind, and (of course) we put him through the Desert Island Bond test.
