WITH three recycled-plastic ships floating in mid air above gushing fountains and a Ukrainian flag flying defiantly above the South Wing, Somerset House hardly recalls St Petersburg, but the London landmark played the role brilliantly in GoldenEye. Filmed on a steely day in April, the scene has Pierce Brosnan's James Bond driven by CIA operative Jack Wade in a crumbling car that breaks down in the middle of Central Square', against the backdrop of a fake Lenin bust, only to be fixed with a good hammering. Location consistency has never bothered 007 filmmakers, so, two years later, in a much swankier motor-his customary Aston Martin DB5Bond, still played by Mr Brosnan, passes through Somerset House's North Wing arch to meet Judi Dench's M in Tomorrow Never Dies.

Save our family farms
IT Tremains to be seen whether the Government will listen to the more than 20,000 farming people who thronged Whitehall in central London on November 19 to protest against changes to inheritance tax that could destroy countless family farms, but the impact of the good-hearted, sombre crowds was immediate and positive.
