Man From UNCLE Episode 28: "The Girls of Nazarone Affair"

Image
The Man From UNCLE Episode 28 The Girls of Nazarone Affair Writer: Peter Alan Fields Director: Alvin Ganzer Guests: Kipp Hamilton (Lavinia Brown), Marian Moses (Madame Alceste), Danica d'Hondt (Irina Nazarone) Filmed: 19-26 de fevereiro de 1965 Premiere: 12 April 1965 Place: Cannes (França) FYI: This episode is a follow to The Mad-Mad Tea Party Affair with Dr. Egret as the villain. In the original the actress was Lee Meriweather. As in this case the actress is not the same, the explanation was due to a plastic surgery that would have changed her appearance. Another episode without much sense, losing the sense of adventure. The title is a nod to the big cinema hit The Guns of Navarone (1961) with David Niven and Gregory Peck. As one of the blonde girls is Sharon Tate. Four years later, already married to Polish film director Roman Polanski, Tate was murdered by Charles Manson manic followers.

Forbes: "007 Lots You Can Buy In The Bond & Beyond Auction"

Feb 4, 2019, 05:46pm 007 Lots You Can Buy In  The Bond & Beyond Auction Barden Prisant With Valentine’s Day in the offing, it might seem curmudgeonly of me to profile an auction which honors a cad. Visions of cupid firing arrows of love, and James Bond firing back with his Walther PPK, just do not mix. Yet, in the week prior to February 14th, such a sale will be held on, yes, the 007th of February. That is when Ewbank’s Auction in the U.K. will be holding its Bond & Beyond sale. Iconic Bond memorabilia has been attracting attention for years. For example, the Aston Martin DB5, as featured in Goldfinger, sold in 2010 for $4.6 million. As best as can be told from the reports at the time, it really did include browning machine guns hidden behind the headlights. (I’ve heard many car enthusiasts refer to the firepower under the hood of their cars, but really?) Or, what everyone needs, a Man from Uncle Ilya Kuryakin action puppet: $200-300. To read the...
