Who is the perfect Bond girl?
There are 20 Bond films in the ‘Bond, James Bond’ exhibition at the Science Museum in London. In these films James Bond has 41 girlfriends, but they are all different. Some have brown hair, some have fair hair, some have dark hair, and some have red hair. But experts now know exactly what type of girl James Bond likes. They say Bond’s typical girlfriend has brown hair and brown eyes. She is quite tall (lm 70), quite thin and, of course, very beautiful. And who is the
perfect Bond girl? They say it’s Diana Rigg in the film On Her Majesty’sSecretService,
