We saw him jumping out of a helicopter with Her Majesty at the Olympics Opening Ceremony the other day, but now James Bond is back in full-on action in the latest, lengthy trailer for Skyfall. This is our best look yet at Sam Mendes' upcoming Bond effort, and we'd say this is rather promising.

Ralph Fiennes is disapproving; Ben Whishaw's Q is introduced with a nifty gift for Bond; Naomie Harris can't quite decide if she wants to groom Bond or shoot him; Berenice Marlohe warns of danger ahead and looks good doing it; and Javier Bardem has finally found a haircut less flattering than the one he sported in No Country For Old Men.
Joking aside, the action looks pretty bloomin' promising here, whether it's falling from neon-lit skyscrapers, ripping the backs off trains (gorgeous little touch there as Bond adjusts his cuff), standing in front of a speeding Tube train or Bond shooting up whatever joint in which he finds himself.
Skyfall hits our screens on October 26, and also features Helen McCrory, Albert Finney and Ola Rapace.
