Today Brian Sheridan from Plant Based Bond jumps on the podcast to discuss minute 37 of Casino Royale.
About the DB5
Starts with Solange asking whether Solange wants a drink back at his place. She agrees to one drink and Bond fires the DB5 around the roundabout of the ocean club, welcome to my home he says. So he’s being playful, using humour to break the ice with Solange. She gets the gag. And you get the impression she hasn’t had much humour in her life.
He also seduces Vesper with a little humour later on, you know what I can do with my little finger.
DB5 (Reg: 56526) Unlike the usual vehicle, it had Bahamian number license plates and was left-hand drive similar to American-built cars, whereas previous versions had been right-hand drive. The left-hand drive DB5 would not make a reappearance during Craig’s tenure as Bond. Instead, the classic gadget-filled Aston Martin DB5 (with the original registration BMT 216A) inexplicably returned in 2012’s Skyfall.

Adam Nicholas Brown – he is the Valet guy
His IMDB page is like a novella, clearly written by him.
He’s from the Bahamas. Left to Los Angeles with not a penny to his name, saved up for some headshots and basically got the gig because of him being easy on the eye. IMDB page reads like his CV, but with only a few films on it, only casino royale I’ve heard of.
