You know the name, you know the number – James Bond 007 is celebrating 60 years on the big screen.

That’s right, audiences across the world have been enjoying the adventures of the British spy since 1962, when Sean Connery made his debut in Dr. No.

He’s one of the most enduring film icons of all time, with Daniel Craig having made his final Bond film No Time To Die last year.

But James Bond never dies, and his cinematic legacy is set to continue with a new actor playing the slick spy – but who will don the tux is anyone’s guess.

He’s famous for his one-liners, classic cars, and surprisingly uncreased tuxedos – but how well do you really know the character, actors past and present, and all of his films?

Use these pub quiz-style questions, of varying difficulty, to test your Bond knowledge.

Good luck, 007.
