In Dr. No, Bond's boss M claims to work for the wrong organization, but none of the later James Bond movies ever explain this 007 debut gaffe.
In his first movie appearance, James Bond’s boss M makes a strange mistake that the rest of the 007 franchise ignores. The James Bond series is not the most consistent franchise in cinema history. For one thing, the face and personality of its main character change every couple of years, and, outside of a few meta-jokes, none of the 007 movies ever reckon with this fact.

Revived during World War II, the organization once employed Winnie the Pooh creator AA Milne. However, MI7 was never responsible for the sort of intrigue and espionage that made 007 famous.
