The producer of the new James Bond film says he wouldn't rule out the idea of a female lead one day.

Michael G Wilson said Bond is a film franchise that moves with the times.

He says people were surprised when they first came up with the idea of having a female M.

Speaking at the opening of the new James Bond exhibition at the National Museum of Photography, Film and Television in Bradford he said: "I suppose nothing is out of the question.

"Bond films are contemporary, they're a reflection of the contemporary free world."
