A FILE revealing the new James Bond movie’s most secret scene has been found — in a pub.
A film hand on £65million Casino Royale is believed to have left it there by mistake.
The 19-page storyboard and script for the scene in the eagerly-awaited movie shows how Bond — played by Daniel Craig — battles to stop villain Carlos ramming a fuel tanker into a jumbo jet.
