Aside from breathtaking stunts and exotic locations, every James Bond adventure needs a meddlesome villain - and who better to take on the mantle than Succession star Brian Cox?

After playing cut-throat media baron Logan Roy in the hit US show, the actor is well equipped to bring villainy to a new 007-inspired reality game show, which parachutes on to Prime Video this week.

Eight-part series 007: Road to a Million mixes elements of Race Across the World and Big Brother as it follows nine pairs of contestants on a global mission to win £1 million by answering 10 questions hidden in iconic Bond locations.
