New Smith and Sniff video OUT NOW
Added 2021-10-01 06:05:00 +0000 UTCHello gang.
It's been a while since Smith and Sniff made a video but, at long last, we've filmed something new in which we play a stupid car spotting game on our way to this week's premiere of No Time To Die. So, if you want to watch two idiots in suits trundling around London vainly hoping to see a Toyota 2000GT, now's your chance.
You can watch the new vid here: https://youtu.be/4Q1yFvcMiVQ
Podcast as normal on Sunday night/Monday morning.
Thanking yous.
Jonny and Richard

2021-10-06 17:14:04 +0000 UTCGood to see you boys back in the same vehicle. Thanks for the tour of my misspent Norf Lunnon youth in Ampstead an Ighgate. Boy has it changed.

2021-10-05 08:20:32 +0000 UTCReally enjoyed this video - did you bring along one of Jonny's cinematographers? Hope we get to see some more in-person videos from time to time

2021-10-04 11:43:27 +0000 UTCI think the Bond movie title has a typo - It was meant to be "No Time to Dine"

2021-10-04 10:59:06 +0000 UTCI think 'Never Dies' and 'Eyes Only' are my two favourite Partridgesque Bond shortenings. 'Daylights' gets an honourable mention too. Cracking stuff, ten on ten.

2021-10-04 10:14:57 +0000 UTCI only saw one car on the bond car bingo sheet last night after I'd watched the video, 8 pm , pissing it down with rain, BMW z8 pulling out a BP in Colchester. My friend looked at me like a mental case as I exitedly pointed and shouted bond car bingo.

2021-10-03 16:23:09 +0000 UTCReally enjoyed the return of S&S driving around looking at stuff. I know it must be a pain in the arse to organise but it really was first class. I was ending myself at the thought of the owner of the XJR looking out of his window and seeing two flutes (albeit in posh whistle and flutes) milling about his motor.

2021-10-02 22:11:14 +0000 UTCEven though I've never seen a Bond film, I loved it so much I watched it twice! Here's hoping for the occasional s&S vids in the future. I hope you can help me understand the British number plate lingo too... I desperately want in on the jokes

2021-10-02 02:10:17 +0000 UTCWow, what a leap in production value! Top notch camera work, exceptional sound, and tight narrative editing. Makes me miss the crunching crisps somewhat, but appreciated nonetheless. But please don't let this level of effort and cost dissuade you fellows from creating further videos. The effort is clearly evident but not necessarily required to satisfy your quirky and selective fan base. Speaking for myself, at least.

2021-10-01 23:41:18 +0000 UTCI was really holding out for an AMC Hornet 😂The Erno Goldfinder story was fantastic. This was easily one of my favorite episodes you guys have ever done! Growing up in the 1990s during Nintendo 64 and Goldeneye fever, I became a massive Bond fan and watched every single Bond film before, and since. This episode brought me back in time, and the endless trivia you guys have squirreled away never ceases to amaze me. Cheers!

2021-10-01 23:36:09 +0000 UTCThe parking spaces in Princes Gate are very convenient for the Albert Hall via the JustPark app, on that side of things

2021-10-01 19:33:07 +0000 UTCThat was great fun, particularly the Goldfinger house. Sorry you didn't see a 2000GT. A friend owns one of the two Bond 2000GT convertibles. Here is a rare shot of them together, along with a Shelby car repainted in the livery of a speed-distance record holder (the actual record car was destroyed). Barstow's book cites the Shelby cars as failing in SCCA racing because of their low power, but this is not quite accurate. What actually happened is that Peter Brock (BRE) was so angry at Shelby stealing the 2000GT racing contract that he loaded up his Datsun racers and drove out to any race the 2000GTs were competing in to block them so the Porsches could win - the Datsuns were competing in a lower class. https://imgur.com/a/I9CILmD

2021-10-01 17:11:07 +0000 UTCThere's an old boy near me who still drives a Renault 11 daily. He's covered 28,000 miles in it during the last 2 years! Parked on the street in Lewisham as well. Don't know how it hasn't rusted away or disappeared. https://www.instagram.com/p/CK9FZ3al5Nn/?utm_medium=copy_link

2021-10-01 16:22:58 +0000 UTCWhat a fantastic way to 'return' to videos together. I spent most of the video watching over Jonny's shoulder for a Ford Ka that you may have missed, sadly I didn't see one.
Matt Tester
2021-10-01 14:38:17 +0000 UTCThanks Richard, saw he's posted this so thought he might have street parked and beat you to a place https://www.instagram.com/p/CUXXXBZMVG4/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

2021-10-01 13:49:22 +0000 UTCExplaining to Daniel Craig at the after party that it’s bingo dabber on your shirt could have been a bit awkward.

2021-10-01 13:47:46 +0000 UTCIt was a V8 Vantage so not Jay Kay, I guess. The Bond spec Defender was very nice. Best looking new Defender I've yet seen. Though you can't buy one exactly like that, firstly 'cos it's got the old engine and secondly because they won't do you the smoked badges on regular models. Richard
Smith and Sniff
2021-10-01 13:41:00 +0000 UTCDo it!
Smith and Sniff
2021-10-01 13:39:42 +0000 UTCThe SPY reg Aston was a V8 Vantage so not Jay Kay (unless he's got two). Lots of Jay Kay chat in the next podcast, by the way, OTSOT. Richard
Smith and Sniff
2021-10-01 13:39:30 +0000 UTCHe had to run into Imperial College near the Albert Hall where his bow tie allowed him to pass as an eccentric professor. Richard
Smith and Sniff
2021-10-01 13:38:35 +0000 UTCI meant to bring one of those massive bingo marker pens but forgot. Also, you're right, terrible risk of accidental shirt damage. Richard
Smith and Sniff
2021-10-01 13:37:34 +0000 UTCLong time coming, that’s made my isolation a lot more bearable! But I now have ideas for more film car bingo 😅
joe brudenell
2021-10-01 12:57:48 +0000 UTCGreat to see you back in a car and really enjoyed the video, not that I don’t enjoy the podcasts. Also agree that Jason Barlow’s Bond car book is great. Couple of quick questions. Was the Aston with the SPY number plate that you mention near the end silver by any chance? If it was, it is likely to be Jay Kay’s DB5 as he was also at the premier and his DB5 registration is SPY 288C (he posted a pic on Twitter on Tuesday). Also did you like the Bond spec defender?

Dean Cadby
2021-10-01 12:15:52 +0000 UTCUtterly superb, loved every minue of it :) Car spotting in the leafy streets of London, we need more of that.
Mark Elliott
2021-10-01 12:12:17 +0000 UTCJust brilliant gents, loved the return of the videos. The Spy reg Aston is Jay Kay from Jamiroquai if it was a DB5, they let him in too! Btw there was a Fuego in View to a Kill but no more chance of seeing one them than the 11!

2021-10-01 10:46:40 +0000 UTCMy wife now wants to play Bond Bingo on the way to watch it today, excellent, pub singer Smith on fine form
Andy Waterman
2021-10-01 09:32:34 +0000 UTCMissed these videos so much on that side of things.
Adam Sillett
2021-10-01 09:21:21 +0000 UTCExcellent video! Will be printing bond bingo off and putting it in my truck. Thanks lads for the entertainment.
richard lessemun
2021-10-01 09:21:11 +0000 UTCI missed how absoulutely brilliant you two gents in a car are. Fantastic episode really enjoyed it. I do worry you are navigating london using parked cars. "The Elan next to London Zoo"
Robin White
2021-10-01 08:41:32 +0000 UTCWas it just me wanting you to cross them off as you spotted them? Didn’t want to get sharpie on your shirt? Maybe someone could go through the video and cross off the board with the spots and upload it?
FRSHNMNTY
2021-10-01 08:27:14 +0000 UTCBrilliant! Great to have you back in a car together! The question is, did you have time to wazz before the film started Jonny?
Chris B
2021-10-01 08:08:28 +0000 UTCBrilliant to get the boys back in town!
Andrew D Robinson
2021-10-01 08:04:03 +0000 UTCGood luck with the AMC Hornet...
Peter Heamon
2021-10-01 07:59:48 +0000 UTCThe video that’s made my year… … and I’ve not watched it yet.
Chris Lipp
2021-10-01 07:29:25 +0000 UTCjust fabulous
Mark Williams
2021-10-01 07:12:07 +0000 UTCGreat vid, so surprised you didn't spot a 2000GT, especially the ultra-common convertible 😁🤔 just wondering; when Bond switches to an EV, wil he suffer from range anxiety mid-chase?
Bruce Driffill
2021-10-01 07:11:30 +0000 UTCJust got to say I thoroughly loved this video; just the type of fun mates should have.
Formula Whine
2021-10-01 06:46:37 +0000 UTCUnbearably excited! - Already on it - on that side of things ….
