Clarifying “gross” in the lede
The lede gives two different figures, very close to each other, for how much money the series has made: $7.04 billion and $19.9 billion. I'm guessing that the first number is the first-run box-office gross, while the second number would include everything (DVD sales, toys, etc.). But it gets confusing to see both described as being the “n-th highest-grossing”, with apparently two different senses of “grossing” that aren't explained. 2604:3D09:A97D:E200:38EE:3AE5:9CAE:3490 (talk) 17:45, 2 December 2022 (UTC)


 * It wasn't clear, but hopefully I have sufficiently clarified the amounts. Betty Logan (talk) 21:45, 2 December 2022 (UTC)

Missing information on radio drama adaptations
I would like to update the section on Adaptations, specifically under the Radio heading. The page currently includes references to the James Bond radio dramas through the year 2014. Since that year, five more radio plays were produced, through the year 2020. You can find the full list here: https://archive.org/details/bbc-radio-4-james-bond-collection PuertoGeekan (talk) 00:35, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Remove Toby Stevens from "portrayers" His own page lists him as playing a Bond Villain, and not Bond himself. 81.17.242.52 (talk) 15:34, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
 * He played Bond on radio. DonQuixote (talk) 15:54, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

Bans and censorship by country
The table in the Bans and censorship by country section needs work. Aside from being woefully incomplete, when the different columns are selected, the information changes, but the horizontal labels remain in the same place, making a complete mockery of what it's trying to show. I'm not sure who did the table, but they need to fix it. Better still would be to put it in prose, rather than a table. I'm not sure the table brings any benefits to it, given the information it's providing. - SchroCat (talk) 20:31, 20 February 2024 (UTC) Ian Fleeming orignally didn't waant sean connery to play Bond. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.242.224.90 (talk) 10:48, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
