Thunderball on UK TV on Christmas Day

Thunderball will be shown on UK television on Christmas day.

Thunderball (1965)
Channel: ITV1
Date: 25th December 2002
Time: 3:10pm to 5:30pm

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
