Double Oz Seven Episode #13 – Fat People Biting Metal – The Spy Who Loved Me

The unlucky 13th episode is here but there is nothing unlucky about an episode detailing one of the greatest Bond films in the history of cinema, the 1977 classic The Spy Who Loved Me. So just which spy loves who in this film? What is the problem with Jaws biting metal? Why is there a general search engine? What the hell is Q doing out and about so much? Is the Lotus really a great Bond car? What makes Roger Moore so good in this film? And what is Colin’s beef with fat people? Click below for more and to get your answers.

Each episode we will tally every Bond kill, every Bond ‘intimate encounter’, every Bond Martini and every Bond, James Bond in our ‘Kiss Kiss Bang Bang’ count. The tally for this film and tally for the films so far is as follows:

COUNT	SWLM	TOTAL*
Bond Kills	19	118
Intimate Encounters	3	28
Martinis	1	6
Bond, James Bond	1	10

*Total after 10 movies

Each episode we will also give personal rankings of each films and shift them up and down accordingly after each review. We will publish a running tally of where each film sits on each hosts overall table at the end of every episode. The current host ranking is as follows:
