Drake disapproves of Mr. Bullion’s (Goldie) gold teeth in The World Is Not Enough (1999), but approves of Jaws’ (Richard Kiel) silver teeth in The Spy Who Loved Me (1977)
James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) and Dr. Molly Warmflash (Serena Scott Thomas) inspect a virtual image of the skull of Victor Zokas ‘Renard’ (Robert Carlyle), containing a bullet that will gradually make him feel no pain and eventually kill him in The World Is Not Enough (1999)
Pierce Brosnan as James Bond and presumably other 00 agents in The World Is Not Enough (1999)
So here’s an interesting shot from The World Is Not Enough. Bond and five others are being briefed about the plan to bring Robert King’s killer to justice, and are all given folders (presumably the famous “for your eyes only” folders) for their assignment for the mission. Everyone in the screenshot receives a folder, except Bond of course – as he has not been cleared by medical as a result of his broken collarbone.
So who are the others? 001 through 005? Remember – 006 (Alec Trevelyan) was killed in GoldenEye (1995) four years earlier.
007 is often asked who he works for, and the fictional import/export company he says is his employer is called Universal Exports.
It is mentioned several times throughout various James Bond movies, which I have listed below:
Dr. No (1962)
007 is shown walking into M’s office, which has a Universal Exports sign on the outside
Sir Robert King’s lapel pin that acted as a detonator and killed him in The World Is Not Enough (1999)
Just how did the bomb detonate that killed Sir Robert King at the beginning of The World Is Not Enough (1999)?

Here are the dorkiest moments of each Bond actor’s career:
Sean Connery tries to pull of the pink tie in Diamonds Are Forever (1971)…and fails. DORK!
George Lazenby’s Scottish get-up in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969) screamed “dork.”
Roger Moore’s clown costume in Octopussy (1983) takes the cake…the ultimate dorkiest Bond moment!
Timothy Dalton’s “look” prior to fishing Franz Sanchez out of the sky in Licence To Kill (1989).
Sorry James, but not even Pierce Brosnan in The World Is Not Enough (1999) can pull off purple glasses (even x-ray ones).
Daniel Craig needed a shave and a shower as a hungover mess in Skyfall (2012)
Pierce Brosnan as James Bond in The World Is Not Enough (1999)
Judi Dench as M in The World Is Not Enough (1999)
So is M more concerned about seeking justice for Robert King’s murder or the desktop taxidermy at MI6’s Scotland headquarters? 🙂
