was at an Audibon Society Lecture, sitting next to Miss Marple.
She asked what he did, he said he was writing a Spy Novel, but still didn't have a Name for his Character.
So this kind of portly Milk-Toaste guy stands up to start the Program, and gives his name.
" Bond, James Bond."
And a Legend was Born!
Really cool and funny in the Episode.

Don't know if AC was present, but the origin of the character's name is correct. Flemming had met an ornithologyst while in Jamaica- named James Bond. The rest is history as they say!
They handle the name thing differently but it is addressed. * - Billy Wonka 15:24:21 11/22/14 (1)

- I wonder if Agatha Christie met Fleming, it was like an inside joke they shared. nt - oldmkvi 09:59:42 11/23/14 (0)
