Room for One More (1952) is correct. Your turn, Laffite.

Yes, we learn her name is Jane in The Moneypenny Diaries, books and stories written by Samantha Weinberg under the pseudonym Kate Westbrook. The series is an official spin-off of the James Bond franchise. Neither Fleming nor any of the succeeding novelists have ever given Moneypenny a first name. Where the films are concerned, it is not until Skyfall (2012) that she is given a first name, and in that movie her name is Eve. Your turn, Cinemaman.

Thank you, Peebs! That one was fun. Do we learn Miss Moneypenny's first name?

I'd go with watching a Joan Crawford movie with Bette Davis. I think she would be irreverent and non-PC about it, but much wittier. Next: Would you rather hang out with Roger Moore's James Bond, or Roger Moore's The Saint?

In the novels: M is Vice Admiral Sir Miles Messervy KCMG. In the Eon films: Bernard Lee's M is Messervy in the films from Dr. No (1962) through Moonraker (1979). When Robert Brown played M from Octopussy (1983) through License to Kill (1989), it was suggested by some that he was simply continuing on as the Messervy character who had been established (much like the "two Darrens"). Others believe that as Brown had previously played Admiral Hargreaves, he was still under that character name, thus giving credence to the notion that M is a designator, much like 007, rather than being representative of a name. Nothing I've read makes a compelling argument either way. Judi Dench takes over M from GoldenEye (1995) through Spectre (2015), and her name is Olivia Mansfield. When Ralph Fiennes plays M from Skyfall (2012) through No Time to Die (2021), he is Gareth Mallory. In the non-Eon films: John Huston's M in Casino Royale (1967) is named McTarry. After M is killed, David Niven's Bond becomes the new M, and the whole thing just gets more ridiculous from there. Edward Fox plays M in Never Say Never Again (1983), but I don't think a proper name is ever revealed for his character. A good, deceptive question, Peebs!

Ha! I knew that's what you were thinking! I was really excited for the new, much-hyped Tom and Jerry movie; alas, I only was able to make it through half of it, and I had to force myself to get that far. I sincerely hope Jerry had a a stern talk with his agent (Tom, too).

This one is pinned and mounted! M is an amateur lepidopterist. In On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969), as M handles a specimen, Bond looks on and casually remarks that it's unusually small for the particular species. M is not amused, as M often is not. Your turn, NoShear....
