JAMES BOND: A Beginner’s Guide

She was graceful, elegant, humorous, intelligent and simply stunning. Has there ever been a more beautiful 94-year old?

Back in the 60s I had her book on self defense and tried (with very limited success!) to develop some skills.

She was pure class. I saw her at the Halle in Manchester as part of the Bond series. What a beautiful woman she was.

Oh no! Rip Honor 😕🙁
