Almost 16 years ago, Christopher Nolan once again blew our minds with Inception , but has Hans Zimmer’s score stood the test of time? Join @licencetoqueer.com and I as we peel back the layers and I murder a perfectly good French accent 😬 shows.acast.com/672f4a5861e4...

Happy #JimFanningFriday! Shout-out to @licencetoqueer.com for starting this fun annual event. If you wanna participate, take a picture of yourself in a bow tie and tag them! My 5 year old daughter designed my bowtie. We'll see if that trend continues 😅

While James Bond is undoubtedly a powerful symbol of British cultural identity, using him to bolster support for your political views - whichever way you swing personally - is simply not cricket. Article/podcast: www.licencetoqueer.com/blog/no-time...

No time to be discussing politics — Licence to Queer

Bond and politics don’t mix. So why, when Bond himself resists being drawn far along either end of the political spectrum, do both sides persist in wielding poor 007 like a blunt instrument?

One of the queerest and 🥵 books I've ever read An intensely empowering story, using an ancient myth to shed light on our modern exististences, reminding us of the possibilities there always were - and all that may still be to come This is pure queer joy in book form. @caroderobertis.bsky.social

'James Bond is what every man would like to be and what every woman would like between her sheets.' Over six decades, this assertion has become received wisdom. But it turns out we’ve been lied to the whole time… www.licencetoqueer.com/blog/to-be-b...

My passions combine in this timely new book! James Bond + linguistics + gender studies! @paulari.bsky.social and @gavinbrookes.bsky.social cover a massive gap in the literature around men's language with this book. And it's all available for FREE: library.oapen.org/bitstream/ha...

Yours is one of the most beautifully written pieces I've ever read, more than doing justice to a beautiful film which I've been obsessed with since I first saw it back on a French import DVD. Can't wait to rewatch it now and savour the fresh perspectives.

Bond and mental health are two things which are of great importance to me, so I was delighted when I had the opportunity to discuss both these topics on @licencetoqueer.com's Our Minds Only podcast. Apologies for any incoherent rambling 😂 TW: self harm, thoughts on suicide

It's not the years; it's the mileage. We may have matured (physically, if not otherwise) but we thought it would be fun to go out in the same outfits we wore to our wedding ten years ago. ☺️
