The twelfth film in the James Bond series, EON Productions For Your Eyes Only saw a return to earth with a more realistic and less sensational storyline after the extravagance of Moonraker. In Roger Moore's fifth outing as 007, he attempts to recover a top-secret British encryption device capable of controlling the British submarine fleet. Bill Gold's iconic "legs" concept, featuring Bond between the long legs of a crossbow-toting babe, was used throughout the global advertising campaign for the film and has become one of the most recognisable Moore era Bond images. The British quad utilised Gold's "legs" concept as a central feature amidst a montage of action scenes by illustrator Brian Bysouth.
