James Bond: (Dr. No / For Your Eyes Only / From Russia With Love / Die Another Day / Live And Let Die / Thunderball) (Blu-ray) - Blu-ray at Play.com (UK)

I've already got the Connery ones on Region A. To me they look pretty fantastic.

£38.99 now, so if you got in there when it was only £17.99, you were lucky!

Timothy Dalton is my Favourite Bond so would probably get his 2 on blu but that's about it.

Hey Ped! Must just be you and me then! I too think that Timmy was/is the best Bond! Especially Licence to Kill. Great serious Bond in that one!

Commence the stoning guys .. but Ped will stand in my corner with me won't you Ped!?

Hey hey Dalton has always been my second favourite Bond, straight after Roger Moore... In fact Timothy Dalton is probably the most talented actor to have played James Bond. Its just I reckon Moore has a bit more charm and humour.

Love both of Daltons films though, they are up there with the best of all Bond films (the best being Live and Let Die )

I agree that Dalton is an underrated Bond but I think Moore's my least favourite after the Australian mannequin seen in OHMSS.

I've always found it really hard to come up with a 'best Bond' as the best Bond film is On Her Majesty's Secret Service which should make George Lazenby the best Bond, but doesn't. Sean Connery is always the one that springs to mind whenever someone mentions James Bond, just like the scene in Trainspotting when they shoot the dog! However, I have very high hopes for Daniel Craig as he is probably the best natural actor to play 007, better than Dalton, Connery, Brosnan and (quite obviously) Moore.

Please bear in mind that this is all coming from someone who isn't a particularly big James Bond fan and who isn't even sure if he has seen every single film all the way through!

I love Bond and agree, OHMSS is one of the best in the series, despite it ebing burdened by the plank that is Lazenby. My favourite Bond was Moore as a kid (having grown up in the 80s) but I've since come to prefer Connery - there's something a lot more dangerous about his characterization. I like Brosnan and Craig too. Poor old Brosnan deserved better films though. I do like Moore though, but purely in a nostalgic way.

I'm not really a Bond fan either, but if I had a choice of which to watch, it would most certainly be the Dalton ones.

i will indeed Sarg, just been watching Dalton's awesome guest appearance on the TV show Chuck where he steals almost every scene, and who can forget his great performance as Simon Skinner in Hot Fuzz..

I grew up with Moore and not knowing any better. Now I just find most of his Bond's too comedic. I swear, every time I watch one I think to myself why I bothered but still end up going back in hope, haha... When I was a kid, the thought of a Lotus Elan that goes underwater was great but that lost it's sheen pretty quick.

Dalton was a good Bond actor but I find his two are stuck in the 80's too much. Better than Moore though.

Brosnan got two good movies in Goldeneye and World Is Not Enough. The invisible car killed him!
