To celebrate the release of Spectre on Blue Ray and DVD, we caught up with the man behind some of the films greatest scenes, former rally car driver – turn 007 – Mark Higgins.

Higgins is an absolute machine behind the wheel and recalls some of the challenges and thrills of pulling off mind blowing stunts at speeds well above 100Mph through Rome. In our chat, he explained some of the logistical measures, surprises and precautions that were taken on set to allow him to push the purpose built Aston Martin DB10 to extremes. That included riding up walls, down stairs and ripping through The Vatican at high speeds – while traveling sideways. Total insanity.
