BBC Radio 4 - James Bond Radio Drama, On Her Majesty's Secret Service
Ойын-сауық
First broadcasted on May 3, 2014.
Toby Stephens, playing the role of 007, sparkles as impersonator, skier, charmer and pursuer of Ernst Blofeld. But is there tragedy ahead?
James Bond seems more interested in gambling at the Casino Royale than tracking down elusive SPECTRE chief Blofeld. Then he meets Tracy, emotionally disturbed daughter of mafia boss Draco.
Now he has a double motive: seek and destroy Blofeld, and prevent Tracy killing herself.
Impersonating a College of Arms official Bond infiltrates Blofeld's Swiss mountain-top lair. He learns that Blofeld and aide Irma Bunt are brainwashing young women. Why? Is biological warfare involved? Backed by 'M' and Draco, Bond mounts an air assault. But can he pin down monstrous Blofeld? And what will happen to Tracy?
Toby Stephens is on top form as 007. A stellar cast includes Joanna Lumley, Alfred Molina, Alex Jennings, Lisa Dillon, John Standing, Janie Dee, Lloyd Owen, Joanna Cassidy, Clare Dunne and Julian Sands, with Jarvis himself as the voice of Fleming.
Specially composed music: Mark Holden and Michael Lopez
Dramatised by Archie Scottney
Director: Martin Jarvis
Producer: Rosalind Ayres
A Jarvis & Ayres Production for BBC Radio 4.

These recent Bond audio dramas with Toby Stephens totally capture the original books' feel and style. Perfection.
I recently trimmed the video to cut out that 15 second intro from the radio host who introduces OHMSS as if it takes place right after From Russia with Love instead of Thunderball. And I also cut out that extra 3 minutes which takes place after the OHMSS radio drama ends where it consists of a unrelated commercial and useless utter silence afterwards. I hope you guys and gals are pleased with this recent change in the video.😎

The only (reformed) Bond villain I could accept to portray James Bond. I first found these BBC dramatizations about a decade or so ago. Wonderful for road trips 👌
I've never really liked James Bond. Turned out I just hadn't yet found the right Bond...😄 Now I'm totally hooked on Toby's Bond. He is somehow much more human than any movie-Bonds. Maybe it's because we hear his thoughts too.

Typical BBC nepotism. If you're related to the right people...?
I absolutely loved this! Really good listen whilst working from home. Emotional ending as well. Many thanks for sharing this and the other Bond radio dramas. I've only got a couple left to listen to.
Joanna Lumley was one of the girls at the clinic in the original OHMSS film. It was a bit part, but she's very hard to miss. She seems to have modelled her performance as Bunt from the actress who played the role in the film.

She also narrated abridged versions of Diamonds Are Forever and Live and Let Die. She recorded them around 95/96 I think. Double cassettes. Her performance is really good. Although the best Bond narrator I've heard doing abridged versions is Richard E Grant.
Thank you so much for uploading this. Brilliantly done.
These are all fabulous!!!!! Thank you so very much👍🏻👍🏻
Its great to listen to them in order unlike the films thanks mate
Very enjoyable. Such a great cast too. Thanks.
" I feel a slight stiffness coming on . " I hope they kept Lazenby's classic line ?

The thumbnail is very odd. "The ladies of ASDA."
Who voices Ruby? Sounds like Jodie Whittaker
is it just me or does bond kind of sound like Chris Hemsworth.

Same timbre perhaps but Hemsworth is an Aussie I think and Toby is posh British. Totally different accent
Could Toby Stephens look anymore like an Austin Powers rip off in this image??

Yes.. he could be wearing a pair of glasses.
The moral of the story is Never invite the BBC around your House or NeverLand or your flat like the Martin Bashir Documentary about Michael Jackson. I hate James Bond movies ! For BBC Radio One.
