A discussion with Edward Biddulph tracing the real British locations that define Bond’s world.

🎧 Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube

In this episode we’re joined by Edward Biddulph to explore the real-world Britain behind James Bond. His new book, The James Bond Lover’s Guide to Britain, brings together locations from Fleming’s novels, the films, and Fleming’s own life — all chosen with one thing in mind: places anyone can actually visit.

We dive into the adventure of visiting these sites as Edward talks about the thrill of standing at a location from his favourite Bond film, and the memories of growing up in Kent where he first realised that Bond’s world overlapped with his own.

Listen in, enjoy the stories, and if you want to dig deeper into 007’s Britain, pick up the book.
