For Your Eyes Only – Bond Returns

The measures taken to make James Bond appeal to younger viewers

In the latest instalment of the franchise, has the character of James Bond been tamed to appeal to younger viewers? Plus, the comedy Margaret Thatcher scene from the film.

Also on the programme: Turkish novelist Yasar Kemal's The Saga of a Seagull about a boy and a bird with a broken wing is reviewed; and art lecturer with a bushy beard, Jack Jones, opens up about playing God in the Lincoln Mystery Plays outside Lincoln Cathedral.

"I was in the senior common room and the producer came up to me and asked if I wanted to play God. I said, why me, I've got no experience, and he said, you do it beautifully all the time."

Presented by Jim Hiley.
