UK TV - `Thunderball` on ITV, Saturday evening

Thunderball (1965)
Channel: ITV1 (UK)
Date: Saturday 30th July 2005
Time: 16:30

Sean Connery is still getting a kick out of the role, but he`s less the suave spy and more the man of action. Adolfo Celi makes a worthy opponent, but Claudine Auger is one of the least memorable Bond girls. Director Terence Young never quite solves the pacing problems posed by filming underwater, but John Stears`s Oscar-winning special effects more than compensate. May be edited for violence.

Director: Terence Young
Main Cast: Sean Connery, Claudine Auger, Adolfo Celi, Luciana Paluzzi, Rik Van Nutter, Martine Beswick

Thanks to `JP` for the alert.
