Continuity mistake: Just after Bond and Christmas Jones climb out of the pipe, Bond is holding his shoulder and his blazer sleeves are up. In the next shot, his arms are by his side and his blazer is all neat. (01:20:05)

Bond gets captured and gets taken to the lighthouse, where he is tortured on a strange chair by Electra. However, Zukovsky comes in with a gun and Electra manages to shoot him. In a final moment, he shoots at Bond's cuff on the chair. Bond gets free and chases Electra, freeing M in the process. He kills Electra at the top of the lighthouse and then jumps off the balcony, where he enters the submarine, thwarts Renard's plan, kills Renard and ends up with Doctor Jones.

James Bond: Construction isn't exactly my speciality.
M: Quite the opposite, in fact.
Trivia: Apparently, there was a line at the end of the intro sequence which was cut from the final release. Among the people turning up to rescue Bond is M, who takes one look at him and says, "Well, at least the Millennium Dome has some use."
Question: When Bond first enters Zukovsky's casino, there's a tune playing on a saxophone in the background. Can anyone make out what tune it is? It sounds really familiar.
