Bondfinger

> – We’re thieves, not spies. > > – Thank you, Sidney. There goes our not guilty plea. Weighing in at 18% on Rotten Tomatoes, our latest pinched loaf of pure Rogertainment is Bullseye!, a 1990 comedy starring Roger Moore and Michael Caine as two petty criminals pursuing a nuclear physicist and his patron, played by Michael Caine and Roger Moore. Hilarity ensues, probably. SEE THE FILM Bullseye! was given a fairly lacklustre DVD release, which you can buy from Amazon in Australia (Amazon AU [https://www.amazon.com.au/Bullseye/dp/B01CNZRALG/]). Both delightfully and inexplicably, it’s available to rent or buy on Amazon Prime Video in the US and the UK.

> Must be Christmas. Everyone wants to give me things. A skeleton flies a plane into a Scottish forest, and in that plane Rodge and Tony find a secret formula that will make all fossil fuels obsolete! Soon people are throwing punches, girls and million-dollar contracts at them both, but with the mystery of the skeletal aviator still unsolved, they have no alternative but to wait for the fabulous Nicola Pagett to sort it all out for them. The Rogertainment continues with Episode 13 of The Persuaders! (1972) — The Long Goodbye SEE THE EPISODE The Long Goodbye is available on YouTube [https://youtu.be/-xkr7TK1LwQ] somehow, along with the rest of the series. FOLLOW US!

> – Will you do it? > > – Of course. Nobody in the world is better-equipped to get rid of Simon Templar than me. And we’re back at last — a fresh slab of Rogertainment, with a couple of ripper Aussie sheilas along for the ride. When organised crime boss Robert Verrier’s butler is unexpectedly exploded, he becomes convinced that Simon Templar is the killer. Hilarity ensues, of course, and Simon has no choice but to impersonate the assassin to uncover the real culprit. SEE THE EPISODE To Kill a Saint is available on YouTube [https://youtu.be/I-4l1bABZRo] (for the time being), complete with burned-in Hungarian subtitles. The entire series was released on DVD in two box sets, one for the black and white episodes and another for the colour episodes. The colour episode box set, which includes this episode, is 14 discs of pure Rogertainment, designed to titillate the palette of the true Rodge connoisseur.

> – Ah, I make it just on half-past three. > > – Eight, Holmes. > > – What on earth are you talking about? > > – Half-past eight, see. > > – Watson, we are on New York time. > > – Oh. Oh, well I’ve always found Greenwich time perfectly adequate to me needs. I see no reason for changing it now. This month: New York! With a horribly miscast Roger Moore as Sherlock Holmes and a horribly misjudged John Watson in Patrick Macnee, Sherlock Holmes in New York is the story of a ruddy-cheeked and thoroughgoingly heterosexual consulting detective, his toffy-nosed dimwit sidekick, and their inexplicably beautiful girlfriend (Charlotte Derampling), who all harbour a dark secret, in the form of an appalling American moppet called Scott. Plus, all of the world’s gold has been stolen, or at least shifted to a nearby floor. Which is why, dear listener, it took us two attempts to work up the courage to even watch this. (DON’T) SEE THE FILM If you want to spend some money here, a plastic disc release of the film is available.

This month, Steed and Mrs Peel are joined by John Le Mesurier, while we are joined again by Steven B [https://flightthroughentirety.com/guests/steven-b], ably assisting us as we investigate various military bigwigs with improbable facial hair, who appear to be leaking valuable secrets to our enemies. Meanwhile, Diana Rigg’s Spotlight photo is getting one hell of a workout. Which is impossible to object to, really. SEE THE EPISODE As is now well established, Series 4 of The Avengers is also available in a lavish Blu-ray box set. Which is how we watched it.
