The Living Daylights

Enter Timothy Dalton. In the season two finale, Morgan and Tom crack open The Living Daylights (1987) — the film that reset 007 for the Cold War and, in our book, gave us the most underrated Bond of them all.

On the music side it's the end of an era: John Barry's final Bond score, a sequenced-synth theme co-written with Pål Waaktaar and performed by a-ha at the absolute peak of their fame… and one of the most gloriously fractious artist relationships in Bond history. Hitler Youth jibes, a boycotted London premiere, two rival mixes of the same song, a rejected Pet Shop Boys demo and a pair of Pretenders tracks — plus Morgan's three-day, off-the-grid Bond marathon.
