UK TV - `Thunderball` on ITV1, Sunday afternoon

26-Sep-2009 • Media Alert

Film: "Thunderball"
Channel: ITV1 (UK)
Date: Sunday 27th September 2009
Time: 15:55

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.

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

Thanks to `Brooky` for the alert.
