Here are the songs that were considered forJames Bond themes but ultimately rejected. Some of them aren't half-bad, too...
Bond title songs are an intrinsic part of the series. But did you know that there were often unused tracks that were considered but rejected? Some of them are damn good too. This is bound to lead to comparisons and what if… discussions, and that's what we are here to encourage today.
As soon as we try to define what makes a great Bond song, we run into the problem that dogs any criticism of the series – every aspect of it is extremely divisive. Whatever element you nominate as a high point, best actor, score or film, for example, is someone else's least favourite and vice versa. The same goes for the Bond theme songs: some people like a bouncy pop song with a nice brass arrangement. For others,...

Now it's more of a case of fallen Angels.
The ABC network tonight confirmed that its relaunched Charlie's Angels series has been given the chop after just four episodes.
Rachael Taylor, Minka Kelly and Annie Ilonzeh starred as Miami-based detectives, with Ramon Rodriguez as Bosley, Victor Garber as Charlie, and Drew Barrymore among the executive producers. Barrymore starred in both big-screen versions of Charlie's Angels directed by McG.
Production has been shut down on the show though the four remaining completed episodes will continue to air. ABC had originally commissioned 13 episodes.
Charlie's Angels premiered to 8.76million viewers. But it had dropped by almost three million to 5.96million viewers by the fourth week.
Last week, Minka Kelly and Rachael Taylor were filmed kissing while shooting on Miami Beach in what has been seen as a ploy to boost interest in the show. The passionate kiss didn't prove to be enough.
