007 will be seen looking seriously shaken in his latest movie - currently filming at Pinewood Studios - when he walks straight into a glass wall as he tries to make his escape following an interrogation. The wall - a huge 4m x 2.5m sheet of clear toughened glass set in a steel channel was supplied by Pilkington Glazing in S London. The production team got in touch with Pilkington Tech Advisory Service about the feasibility of using such a big sheet of glass. The scene in question sees James Bond being brought into a room to be questioned, then turning around to find the bad buys have disappeared. He tries to escape, only to find that the gap in the wall is actually glass and he's trapped. The film, working title Bond 20, started filming in January and is due for release later this year.
