Who's your fav Bond girl ?


Mine is Stacey Sutton : I know most people hate her, but I like her for the following reasons :

Everytime a new actress takes on the role of a Bond Girl, she always states that her character is "a different kind of girl", "very equal to Bond" or that "she can use a gun".

Fine...but these are not "special" or "different" at all. In fact, almost every Bond girl has been a "strong", "fighting" leading lady.

Stacey Sutton, portrayed by Tanya Roberts, was actually a REAL different kind of girl : she wasn't a secret agent, an exotic beauty living on an island, the mistress of some villain or a dangerous femme fatale.

For a change, she was just a normal person, an "everyday people" and this is nice, for reality and credibility sake.
She was a San Francisco citizen, workin in geology field and living in her family estate. She became involved in an adventure she didn't ask for.

So of course she wasn't as brave or competent as a CIA or MI-6 agent, but she did the best she could to help Bond, and faced events with braveness.

Plus, she's beautiful and was, at the time, one of the sexier actress around.

Fiona Volpe, Thunderball.

No contest: Dame Diana Rigg—Emma Peel her own self—as Tracy, the ONLY woman Bond ever married.

Heartbreakingly beautiful; spunky as C4, and the ONLY Shakespearean-trained Bond girl.

It’s no contest.

Diana Rigg!

Because Dame Diana wins any contest she deigns to enter.
