Lotte Lenya of course.

There is a connection between Lenya and Diana Rigg. Lenya was married to Bertolt Brecht, who wrote the Threepenny Opera, from which Mack the Knife comes. Rigg was a much lauded Mother Courage in 1995, in the play written by Bertolt Brecht.

I went for Honor Blackman, but could equally have picked Ursula Andress or Halle Berry. Ursula because her entrance was iconic, and Halle because she's the only woman I could imagine voluntarily sleeping with. My dad wanted to call me Ursula after Ursula Andress - my mum had to put her foot down.

Tatiana: Thank you, but I think my mouth is too big.

James Bond: No, its The right size... for me, that is.

That's so wonderfully Bond - reminds me of the "Named after your father no doubt?" line  :P

Diana Rigg for me but there's not many in the main list that I'd kick out of bed.

I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

Rigg was a much lauded Mother Courage in 1995, in the play written by Bertolt Brecht.

I saw that production. It was astonishing. Mesmerising from beginning to end. She was something else. I never even though I liked the play that much until I saw that production.

And of course Diana Rigg is the only correct answer to this question.

Damon.

She's been in a lot of things...Midsomer Murders, Spooks, The Six Million Dollar Man, Magnum PI and something to do with trains iirc but she hasn't been a Bond girl.

She is also the only Bond girl who makes James Bond monogamic - for one film at least.

Er... the only one apart from Tracy Di Vicenzo perhaps?  ???

Who is that quote from anyway?
