ITV own the rights to the entire back catalogue of Bond Films, including the premiere of Casino Royale so I guess they must have sold the rights on for From Russia with Love to BBC2 as part of their special season.

ITV have shown many seasons of Bond films down the years, in the right order, in reverse, specific Bond seasons, however the film that seems to get shown rather randomly than any other is Tomorrow Never Dies. That's the one with as the meglomaniac multi-media mogul.

In recent times, ITV seems to have given up on the "Bank Holiday Bond". I know we were all heartily sick of them, however given that the Bank Holiday schedules are now almost near normal, I'd actually welcome their return.

The World Is Not Enough get's an airing on ITV1 next week.

Incidentally, Virgin Media have "any Bond, any time, any order" as they are promoting it, the entire back catalogue available on demand (you have to pay of course).

Yes!!! It was Casino Royale I saw on the BBC (the spoof version I might add).
