Roger Moore`s first tour of duty as James Bond sees him up against the dark powers of voodoo in the bulky shape of Yaphet Kotto, while the curvaceous Jane Seymour plays his love interest. There are some splendid action set pieces, notably a speedboat leap that set a new world record, as well as the usual array of hi-tech gadgetry and colourful locations.

James Bond is assigned to solve the murder of agent 009, killed in East Germany clutching a fake Faberge egg. The trail leads to India where an enigmatic woman operates a smuggling ring under the cover of a travelling circus. But her real motives prove to be far more sinister, and Bond uncovers a plot to blow up a US air force base in West Germany.

Thanks to `Doctor Kaufmann` for the alert.
