Description

On this episode of The James Bond A-Z Podcast hosts Tom Butler, Brendan Duffy, and Tom Wheatley take a closer look at M, James Bond’s boss M, the Head of British Secret Service.
We explore the origins of Ian Fleming's character and the people who are said to have inspired him. We take a look at all the screen incarnations and the actors behind the character: Bernard Lee, John Huston, Robert Brown, Edward Fox, Dame Judi Dench, and Ralph Fiennes.
We also discuss which incarnation is our favourite and what the character can bring to the Bond series 60 years on.
James Bond will return... in next week's James Bond's A-Z Podcast.

Hosted by lifelong James Bond fans – film journalist Tom Butler, journalist Tom Wheatley, and improviser Brendan Duffy – The James Bond A-Z Podcast is an encyclopaedic introduction to the people behind the world’s greatest spy film franchise. Going from A-Z, each episode covers the key creatives and characters from every James Bond film from 1962’s 'Dr No' to 2021’s 'No Time To Die', talking about Ken Adam to Max Zorin, and everything in-between (and yes, that includes 'Never Say Never Again'). The show shines a light on every aspect of the filmmaking process answering many of the questions you always wanted to ask about the 007 films, and we are occasionally joined by guests who offer a unique perspective on the films.
