Bond and Beyond

Live at the BBC Proms: Daniel Bartholomew-Poyser conducts the BBC Concert Orchestra in music from the iconic spy thriller films.

Presented by Georgia Mann, live from the Royal Albert Hall, London.

No character in cinema history has a more instantly recognisable theme tune, or has inspired more classic pop songs, than James Bond. Daniel Bartholomew-Poyser conducts the BBC Concert Orchestra in a musical homage to Ian Fleming’s suave spy. Together with special guests they train their sights on the greatest hits from Skyfall, The Spy Who Loved Me and others, promising to leave you stirred, not shaken.

Interval: Charlie Higson is the author of the Young Bond series of books following the secret agent during his schooldays at Eton, and the novella On His Majesty's Secret Service. Now, he's published a novel for adults King Zero which begins with a murdered agent in the desert.
