New Spectre Trailer Description - 7 Things You Need To Know

5. London On Fire

Like Skyfall before it, there's going to be a major sequence of Spectre set in London; the second trailer had several moments showing action based in the capital, with the whole thing climaxing with Bond and Swann riding a boat down the Thames. Now we get something of a money shot; the new trailer shows Bond on a deserted Westminster Bridge, with Big Ben (sorry, Elizabeth Tower) and several large fires in the background. Has S.P.E.C.T.R.E. struck at the heart of Britain, trying to take out its leaders? If so, it sure looks like they've succeeded, with Bond arriving too late this time to save the day. What a way to raise the stakes! We've actually seen a shot from this sequence before - a battered M walking past a bunch of policemen, meaning that, whatever's happened, it's brutal enough to get the section chief involved. As he's also been seen grappling with Andrew Scott's Denbigh, does that mean this attack has been targeted at MI6?
