I will concur with your observation. Example: the other day I picked up an empty picture frame that has (and still is) lying up on the landing. Having picked it up, the glass then slid out the side of the frame and bounced down the stairs. I'm saying "Bugger, bugger" as it did this. It wasn't broken, but I did think: "This wouldn't happen to James Bond."
And in no way is this a 'spoiler' to the latest Bond film, in case anyone is reading this, given the thread title!
