Description

The James Bond film series has inspired several knockoffs and parodies since its inception in 1962, but prior to that, the suave Agent 007 began life on the page in a series of novels by British writer, Ian Fleming. But did you know that this seemingly ordinary man drew upon his own experiences for Bond's action-packed exploits? Find out in this week's episode how Fleming's work during World War Two led him to become the man behind Bond.
