Miss Moneypenny
Actor (See Below)
Gender Female
Age 40
Affiliation MI6
Status Active
Miss Moneypenny is a character in the James Bond books and movies. She is secretary to M and although she has a small part in the films it was always highlighted by the underscored sexual tension between her and Bond (something that is virtually nonexistent in Ian Fleming's novels though somewhat moreso in the novels of John Gardner and Raymond Benson). It is believed that her character in part is based on Vera Atkins, the assistant to Maurice Buckmaster, who is the head of the French Section of the Special Operations Executive. The character has never been given a first name in any Bond novel or movie, though Bond occasionally refers to her by the nickname, "Penny."
