Then he's seen pulling up to the curb in the V8, as London traffic flows past on Whitehall.

Producers also shared some brief video footage last week too, with Craig in a Land Rover and taking in some of the Jamaican nightclubbing, as well as a glimpse of Jeffrey Wright's Felix Leiter, thought to be key to the plot of the movie, and Lashana Lynch, who plays Nomi.

It all paints a picture of a shoot going swimmingly, but the reality has been rather far from that.
