The James Bond 007 Dossier

In this clip from the BBC's Tonight program, first broadcast on 17 September 1964, a mysterious rendezvous for Tonight reporter Kenneth Allsop occurs on Wimbledon Common, where he is invited to swap his E-Type Jaguar for an Aston Martin DB5 with some rather unusual accessories. It's only after the transaction is complete, however, that he realises he's getting slightly more than he bargained for. Great stuff!
