If Ian Fleming hadn’t attended a naval conference in Jamaica back in 1943, would anyone other than a handful of birding experts know the name James Bond? Now that’s a scary thought! Thankfully, of course, he did visit the country on that fateful trip and promptly fell in love with the place. Since then, Jamaica and Bond have become practically synonymous, and that’s especially true now that “No Time to Die” has finally arrived in theaters. For many fans, the early scenes set in Jamaica’s Port Antonio are some of the best in the movie.

Favourite Bond Film:
Such a tough opening question. I certainly have my favourite one from each of the actors, but I’m going to cheat a little and give you two answers. If we’re talking the swinging sixties, then for me it simply has to be the splendour that is On Her Majesties Secret Service. It’s epic throughout, very faithful to the Fleming original, and those ski sequences still thrill me today. Love it.
If we’re talking modern day, then I’d plump for Casino Royale. Superb performances from a stellar cast, and such a magnificently strong opener for Daniel that it is proving difficult to ..read more
