Part One: The Classic Years
James King celebrates the music of the James Bond films, starting with the first four decades of the film franchise. Featuring Duran Duran, Sheryl Crow, Barbara Broccoli and more.
As the latest instalment in the James Bond film franchise, No Time To Die, finally hits cinemas, Radio 2's resident movie critic James King celebrates the films' iconic theme songs in a two-part special.
In this first part he goes through the first four decades of Bond theme tunes, starting with Bond鈥檚 beginnings in the 60s with suave Sean Connery through to the turn of the century and the Pierce Brosnan era.
James speaks to the film's producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson about how the tradition of the Bond theme came about and their memories of the early years when their father Cubby Broccoli was making the films. Composers Don Black and David Arnold talk about working with the legendary composer John Barry, whose sound helped define Bond, as well as some of the five Bond themes they've written between them. Duran Duran's Nick Rhodes discusses how they brought 80s glamour to Bond with View To A Kill and Sheryl Crow describes how difficult it can be to write a song with nothing but a title like Tomorrow Never Dies to work from.
In part two James celebrates the music of the Daniel Craig era of Bond, including an interview with the man himself as well as co-stars Rami Malek and Lashana Lynch, plus global sensation Billie Eilish.
