    We are delighted to be able to present this very special high-definition screening and event which marks the launch of the worldwide box office phenomenon Quantum of Solace as it explodes onto Blu-ray disc and DVD.

    Daniel Craig reprises his role as the world’s favourite secret agent in this high octane action adventure of treachery, murder and deceit. Picking up the storyline shortly after the end of Casino Royale, this is the first direct sequel in the longest running film franchise in history. Betrayed by Vesper, the woman he loves, 007 fights the urge to make his latest mission personal. Pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and M (Judi Dench) interrogate Mr White (Jesper Christensen) who reveals the organisation that blackmailed Vesper is far more complex and dangerous than anyone had imagined… In a mission that leads him to Austria, Italy and South America, Bond allies with old friends, but with the British Government and the CIA working against him, he must kill or be killed to uncover the truth.

    Early booking recommended for this evening that will no doubt whet the appetites of Bond fans everywhere for the forthcoming Cubby Broccoli season that will run throughout April and May and will include screenings of all 22 Bond films.

    Quantum of Solace is released on Blu-ray and DVD on 23 March by MGM and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.
