The encore presentation of On Her Majesty’s Secret Service still brought out the same good-natured lovefest we’ve come to expect. OHMSS has become a #Bond_age_ favorite; it’s easy to see why. Kitschy 60’s/70’s decor and costumes, Emma Peel, Telly Blofeld and Playboy’s one and only hurrah make for an energized evening of witticisms and reverence.
June 11th: In my regrettable absence I turned over hosting duties to @AnnaRenee who ran a ship so yar, she had arbs commenting on #AVTAK taking over Twitter. Both absurd and wildly entertaining before turning grating and nonsensical, A VIEW TO A KILL provides everything a good live tweet needs to conquer the world.
I’d thought you’d never get back. INITIATE MISSION! #AVTAK

The name’s Bond. James Bond. AARP 007. #AVTAK — Canucklehead (@GregMcCambley) June 12, 2014
@echidnabot It’s true. Because I consumed my twin in the womb. #AVTAK

You know, villain’s ski chase abilities really went downhill after the 70s. #AVTAK — Canucklehead (@GregMcCambley) June 12, 2014

June 4th: Match C in the Tournament of Bonds begins with the live tweet favorite, Live and Let Die. There’s never a dull twatter moment between the dated blaxploitation themes, pimpmobiles and J.W. Gone Wild speedboat action.
Time to hop in the PIMPMOBILE and tool around NYC with our good buddy James Bond. INITIATE MISSION #LALD

The second episode of last Wednesday’s double bill was the first second season episode covered in #Bond_age_TV, and the second episode in colour. After the zany antics in Britain (by way of LA), Solo and Kuryakin had to head off to the cold of northern Canada to face off against G. Emory Partridge (George Sanders) once again in “The Yukon Affair.” They truly left no Canadian cliché unuttered, but they do get neatness points for showing they actually did some research. Plus we meet a female Eskimo woman named Murphy. Enjoy!

“The Gazebo in the Maze Affair” Man From UNCLE Livetweet Digest
Last Wednesday, the #Bond_age_TV crew got together for a special double header of episodes featuring legendary actor George Sanders. It was a red letter day for #Bond_age_TV because almost 10 people joined in the fun! First up was season one’s “The Gazebo in the Maze Affair,” featuring George Sanders and Jeanette Nolan as two of looniest homicidal English aristocracy you’ll ever meet.

Such a neat way to kidnap someone. It’s like something out of The Avengers. #UNCLEtweet
