Bond Girls Are Forever, a documentary due to air on the AMC channel on Nov. 6 assembles the actresses who have portrayed 007's temptresses since the original Dr. No. The film, produced and narrated by Maryam d'Abo, who appeared as a Bond girl herself in 1987's The Living Daylights, examines how the feminist movement has affected the evolution of the female lead characters. It also provides a glimpse into the unromantic business of creating onscreen romance. For example, Jane Seymour, who was the Bond girl in 1973's Live and Let Die, describes her love scenes as "torture," explaining: "The angle at which you have to pose, you really have to be a contortionist you know. If your leading man or you have any makeup on, that sort of slides from one person to another... And, of course, the hair -- it's in the way. There's nothing sexy about it at all."

Former James Bond star Timothy Dalton made a surprise appearance in court yesterday during a trial surrounding drug smuggling and money laundering. Dalton, 56, who starred as Bond in the Living Daylights and Licence To Kill, testified on behalf of pal Jill Fuller, alleged to have helped husband Michael Tyrrell hide drug money by buying property. Dalton told Snaresbrook Crown Court, England, that he had known Fuller for 30 years and added, "I have known her as a single mother raising three children in both Antigua and England. I have never had any reason to doubt her or her truthfulness." Fuller's husband was jailed for 26 years in October 2000 for his part in an attempt to import cocaine worth millions into the Isle of Wight. Fuller, 54, denies one count of concealing the profits of drug trafficking. The trial continues.
