Only when you have a license to kill, are playing Kamal Khan, and need double sixes to win imo.

The Octopussy scene! Dramatic, but entirely a figment of the screenwriter's imagination.

Could this please be expanded upon?

I am no closer to knowing what player's privilege is.

Many thanks.

In the movie Octopussy (one of the Roger Moore Bond movies) James Bond is playing backgammon with the villain (Louis Jourdan, I think). The villain is winning by using loaded dice that roll 6-6 when he switches them into the game. On the last roll Bond needs a 6-6 to win, so he calls out "player's privilege", which is apparently a rule allowing one player to exchange his dice for his opponent's. The loaded dice are still in Jourdan's cup, but he can't complain without revealing himself, so Bond takes the cup, rolls 6-6, and wins.

There is no such rule in real money games, although players can mix the dice and redraw them between any two games.
