Worst Bond Girl

I should imagine Tanya Roberts, Teri Hatcher & Denise Richards score highly in any poll but for me Britt Ekland is the absolute pits.

Comely enough for sure but her simpering is intolerable & represents the nadir of 70's sexism.

    Tanya Roberts *shudder*. It's as if feminism never happened, they should have known better by the 80s. I think my absolute worst has to be Holly Goodhead from Moonraker - they try and make it up to date by making her an astronaut (!), and then give her a name like that. At least Plenty O'Toole was there because of her boobs, they didn't pretend to anything better.

    The first chinese lass (sorry can't remember her name) in You Only Live Twice

    Jane Seymour, and the lass who played Rosie Carver are both awful in Live And Let Die (the only things wrong with that film)

    Never thought that much of Eva Green

    "Magda" in Octopussy

    Too many to name, really.

    I didn't like the American bird in Licence to Kill. I don't like the American bird in Moonraker. I don't like Bambi or Thumper from Diamonds Are Forever.

    Denise Richards was crap too.

    To sum up you don't like American birds. ;)

    She's one of my favourites. :o What a name! And she can fly a spaceship. :cool:

    She was the worst. :( It's a shame because it's such a good film otherwise.

    However, Denise 'I'm a nuclear scientist' Richards must be a close contender.

    Too many quotes and smilies in one post... Sorry for that, but Bond threads bring out the worst in me.

    Your psychoanalysis is accurate. :)

    She was always one of my favourite Bond girls. Clearly the most loopy by far. My favourite moment is when they're in the plane over Afghanistan. Bond is being strangled by the rope in the plane bunker by Necros i think his name is.

    What can I do to help him? Oooh I know, I'll open the plane doors. Classic :D

    Other favourites. Tanya Roberts, Grace Jones, Jane Seymour, Sophie Marceau (sp?) Honor Blackman Isabella Scorropco, Famke Jansen and Denise Richards, She was excellent in TWINE. I do have other favourites out there in my mind just can't think of em, bizarre. :)

    Least favourite, Halle Berry, I don't know why, she tries in the film but isn't my favourite at all.

    I thought May Day could more accurately be described as a henchman/woman/person (delete as PC appropriate) in the Oddjob mould.

    So maybe Roger Moore indulging in a spot of geriatric S+M porn in View To A Kill was payback for his 70's sexism. ;)

    Would have to be Grace Jones, even Jaws was more feminine than her :D

    I don't think Bond shagged Oddjob. :D

    The title says worst Bond girl, so I will only name one, but will ignore any since Dalton played bond because they've just about all been awful.

    My vote goes to the whiny ice skater Bibi Dahl from For Your Eyes Only.

    I like Grace Jones.:)

    I would say Denise Rihards was the worst.

    I really disliked the foreign one in Casino Royale. Her accent seemed so fake and her acting was wooden.

    I didn't like that Fields one from 'Quantum of Solace'. I honestly didn't see the point of her at all. She was just there...and then she wasn't.:p

    I have to rewatch the movies..I can't remember any others apart from Halle Berry.:o Who was also..I don't know..bleh.:D I was expecting her to be a brilliant character, which led to her falling flat. Very flat.:p

    Grace Jones without a doubt.

    I know it's heresy but I wasn't a fan of 'Poo-see' either.

    Yes indeed. Lynn Holly Johnson was utterly annoying.

    Not saying I wouldn't, but there you go...
