Governments have now, pretty much closed all ski resorts. Eon has delayed the worldwide release of the latest James Bond movie, scheduled for 2nd April 2020. We won’t see it until November at the earliest.

As the world experiences strange times, perhaps we need Bond to save us! Let’s look at a couple of Bond’s best times on snow. For some, Roger Moore was the greatest Bond, whatever the arguments, he was certainly the greatest on skis. When Daniel Craig went to Solden, he didn’t even try.

Austria and Switzerland are top suggestions – do you know for sure?

Filming for the snow scenes in Spectre was in Solden, Austria, that we can be sure of. Go to the top of the mountain and you’ll find an exhibition dedicated to all things Bond,

pop trivia: Carly Simon gave us ‘Nobody Does it Better‘. Of course they don’t, that’s why this was chosen as the theme to Roger Moore’s third outing as James Bond; the tenth in the franchise, in 1977.
