For Your Eyes Only - St. Giles Churchyard, Stoke Poges

James Bond visits the grave of his wife Teresa, who was killed by Ernst Stavro Blofeld. The church is located almost 30 miles west of London. When we drove up to London from the south coast, we took a small detour to see this place. On the second screenshot from the movie, you can see the church behind the trees, now the trees have grown too tall to allow a view of the church. 









Octopussy - Whitehall, London

A few early eighties impressions from London's government district. I actually wanted to wait until the red buses were positioned exactly like in the film's screenshot, but on the other hand I didn't want to overtax my girlfriend's patience.



Octopussy - Sotheby's, London

James Bond leaves the auction house after cleverly swapping the priceless Fabergé egg for a fake. By the way, Sotheby's is conveniently located on New Bond Street. However, the name is not based on Her Majesty's favorite spy, but on Sir Thomas Bond who lived in the 17th century and was a landowner and accountant of the household of Queen Henrietta Maria.





The Living Daylights - Trafalgar Square, London

Universal Exports Ltd. is just a front company behind whose door secret operations are being planned. In order not to attract attention, they settled directly in one of the most famous tourist hotspots in London. By the way, Trafalgar Square's name commemorates the Battle of Trafalgar that took place off the coast of Cape Trafalgar in 1805 during the Napoleonic Wars. 



Licence to Kill - Whitehall, London

Whitehall is one of the recurring filming locations in London for Bond films. This time for Timothy Dalton's second and final adventure as a 00 Section field agent with the Licence to Kill. 

The World Is Not Enough - SIS Building, London

As you can easily see from the screenshot, this is the headquarters of the MI6. In the film as well as in reality. In December 1994, the MI6 was officially renamed SIS (Secret Intelligence Service), hence the name of the building. 

The Living Daylights - White Pond Farm, Stonor

The place where Necros kills the milkman. Now he can slip into his role and get into the safehouse unhindered. White Pond Farm still looks the same as it did in 1987.







The Living Daylights - Stonor Park, Stonor

The beautiful property called Stonor Park, which is only a few hundred meters away from White Pond Farm, serves as the filming location for the safehouse. Here Necros aka the fake milkman manages to kidnap General Koskov.
