James Bond has become one of the most iconic and celebrated film series of all time, and its popularity has continued to surge with the release of recent films like Skyfall and SPECTRE. London has become linked as the home of this quintessentially British spymaster, and many of London’s most famous icons and landmarks have featured in the films throughout the years. Tourists coming to London will often recognize some of its most famous and lesser known sites through their connection to the James Bond series. Take Somerset House, which was used in disguise as St Petersburg Square in the film Goldeneye, or the scenes at Westminster Bridge during Skyfall. The River Thames has become synonymous with the boat chase that took place in “The World is not Enough” that ended dramatically at the Millenium Dome. The current MI6 headquarters have been featured in many of the most recent films as the headquarters of M, and of course viewers witnessed its destruction at the dramatic end of Skyfall. In fact, the connection between Bond and London go all the way back to the very first Bond film, Dr No, in the 1960’s. It was at the very beginning that we witnessed the iconic first appearance of Bond (Sean Connery), which was rumoured to have been shot at a card table near the Hilton. This James Bond Tour of London is a great way to get to know the city, through the eyes of England’s most famous spy master.
