On Her Majesty's Secret Service Ian Fleming

Notes and references

Notes

  1. ^ On Her Majesty's Secret Service continues the story from Thunderball (published in 1961) in which the terrorist organisation SPECTRE tried to hold the UK and US to ransom by threatening them with two nuclear bombs.[1]
  2. ^ £1 million in 1963 equates to approximately £22,277,000 in 2021, according to calculations based on the Consumer Price Index measure of inflation.[2]
  3. ^ The books were Casino Royale (1953), Live and Let Die (1954), Moonraker (1955), Diamonds Are Forever (1956), From Russia, with Love (1957), Dr. No (1958), Goldfinger (1959) Thunderball (1961) and the short story collection For Your Eyes Only (1960).[3]
  4. ^ At the end of the war, when the owners had the property returned to them, they found thousands of skulls of Asiatic origin, in all the rooms.[25]
  5. ^ Lynd was Bond's lover and colleague in Casino Royale; she betrayed him to SMERSH—a branch of the KGB—but fell in love with Bond and killed herself at the end of the novel.[35]
  6. ^ During the course of On Her Majesty's Secret Service Bond consumes forty-six drinks: Pouilly-Fuissé, Riquewihr and Marsala wines, most of a bottle of Algerian wine, some 1953 Château Mouton Rothschild claret, along with Taittinger and Krug champagnes and Babycham; for whiskies he consumes three bourbon and waters, half a pint of I.W. Harper bourbon, Jack Daniel's whiskey, two double bourbons on the rocks, two whisky and sodas, two neat scotches and one glass of neat whisky; vodka consumption totalled four vodka and tonics and three double vodka martinis; other spirits included two double brandies with ginger ale, a flask of Enzian schnaps and a double gin: he also washes this down with four steins of German beer.[46][47] Bond's alcohol intake does not seem to affect his performance.[48]
  7. ^ Other "doubly foreign" villains include Dr. No (Dr. No; German-Chinese), Donovan "Red" Grant (From Russia, with Love; German and Irish, fighting for the Soviets), Count Lippe (Thunderball; Portuguese and Chinese).[64]
  8. ^ The "Fleming effect" was a mechanism he continued to use in future books; Rupert Hart-Davis, the publisher and editor who was a close friend of Fleming's brother Peter, later remarked that "when Ian Fleming mentions any particular food, clothing or cigarettes in his books, the makers reward him with presents in kind ... Ian's are the only modern thrillers with built-in commercials."[67]
  9. ^ Goldfinger focuses on gold and The Man with the Golden Gun with sugar price fixing in the Caribbean.[77]
  10. ^ The innovations highlighted by Mortimer include that the villain does not capture Bond; no torture is described; and that Bond marries.[38]
