With Spectre due in Irish cinemas this Winter, we're starting to wonder when we'd see a trailer or something for it.

A surprisingly action-free teaser sees Bond shifting through the aftermath of Skyfall and wrapping up some lose ends left by (spoiler) Judi Dench's M and her departure from the series.

So, initial thoughts? It looks - as you'd expect - sumptuous and gorgeous. That's down to cinematographer Hoyte van Hotema, who worked on Interstellar and Her.

That character you hear at the start is Mr. White, who turned up originally in Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace - so we're guessing the story is narratively linked between each film.

That's definitely a first for James Bond, as most of the films prior to Daniel Craig weren't necessarily referencing the previous or past films. 

We don't get a full glimpse at Christoph Waltz's baddie, only a look through some shadows and a very sinister-looking meeting.

So, are we excited? Definitely. The decision to make the first teaser about the characters, the setting and everything else was a bold move. We like it.

Let's see what else they've got up their sleeve in a few months time.
