- Summary
- COI synopsis: Maggie Palmer visits the foremost film making centre in Britain. Pinewood Studios are celebrating their fortieth anniversary with the opening of the biggest motion picture sound stage in the world. They need it to accommodate the latest James Bond epic - ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’. Our film has Maggie Palmer on the set during a tremendous action scene and in a somewhat quiet interview with Roger Moore, now playing James Bond for the third time.
