Fans of the original book will be interesting but even they will find a film lacking in much in the way of revelation.

Overall though, the casual viewer, fan of the film series will find this a tad stiff and dull. The others contributors are solid enough and the footage of Fleming will be worth the hour for his fans.

Graham-Dixon doesn't come across as having a lot of passion for this subject and as a result his delivery is a bit plodding.

Instead we spent a lot of our time hearing excerpts from the book which are followed by insight into the background from either Fleming himself (in a little seen interview) or others who knew him. It does use clips of the 2006 version and the terrible spoof version but this is not really for any reason other than filling the film. The downside of this is that viewers unfamiliar with the book will probably find parts of this rather dull as it doesn't touch areas they are interested in. Although this was screened on the back of the back of the new film, the focus is much more about the book and Ian Fleming himself. An interesting subject since you do have to bear in mind how this was the first time Bond existed and how famous and successful he and the film series have become.
