Our friends at MI6 Confidential celebrates The Living Daylights (1987) with a limited-run 100-page perfect bound issue of the magazine brilliantly curated by From Sweden with Love reader Vipul Patel.

With Roger Moore's retirement from the role and recasting 007 in sight, Albert R. Broccoli was taking no chances. Which is why he turned the directorial duties over to John Glen's safe hands for the fourth consecutive time.

This special edition of MI6 Confidential delves into the production history of The Living Daylights like no publication before. Bond 15 at once felt fresh and interesting, introducing a new man to the role, whilst harkening back to the golden era of 007. Filmmakers achieved this balanced cocktail by bringing back the partnership between Bond and Aston Martin, and weaving action, adventure, and genuine twists within a plot that finds MI6 investigating its final Cold War-era caper. With unprecedented access to production materials, this issue also draws on John Glen's personal recollections of the 1986-87 production, adding character and richness to the story.
