Alex and James are joined by special guest Matt for the first out a new series of episodes in which we look back at the tenure of each James Bond actor.

We start with Timothy Dalton, divisive in his own way but beloved by many fans. Dalton took over the role at perhaps the most interesting moment in the series, and had just two films to demonstrate his Bondness.

What was Dalton's legacy and how does he compare to his fellow Bonds?
