    I'm inclined to say SWLM, but I can't be sure.

    -{ correct. :)
    When Bond is underwater in the lotus he rams a diver and moves on.

    Anyway,

    In CR when Vesper meets Bond on the train, she analyses him in this paragraph
    "All right... by the cut of your suit, you went to Oxford or wherever. Naturally you think human beings dress like that. But you wear it with such disdain, my guess is you didn't come from money, and your school friends never let you forget it. Which means that you were at that school by the grace of someone else's charity: hence that chip on your shoulder. And since you're first thought about me ran to "orphan," that's what I'd say you are."
    What is the factual error in this paragraph?

    Oxford isn't a school -it's a University :)

    also, you can get a scholarship there, so don't necessarily need money or anyone's charity...

    Both good points, but not what I had in mind.
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    Could it be the " you didn't come from money" as Bond's family were very well off.
    "I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
  • screenamescreename Posts: 388MI6 Agent
    No. (were they? Guess that's what you learn from the books!)
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    :)) well he didn't get Skyfall on welfare payments.

    I think in the books he grew up with his Aunt Charmain in Kent after his parents died, so i always thought that maybe their money was left to him in trust or something, and he didn't have it right away...

  • screenamescreename Posts: 388MI6 Agent
    Well in Carte Blanche he bought a car with it, so...

    Can an Adult be called an Orphan ?

  • screenamescreename Posts: 388MI6 Agent
    I believe they can. Maybe I shouldn't have posted this, there are more discrepancies than I thought. :#

    Didnt he study oriental languages at Cambridge?

    1. Connery 2. Craig 3. Brosnan 4. Dalton 5. Lazenby 6. Moore
  • screenamescreename Posts: 388MI6 Agent
    I believe Connery-Brosnan did (well, maybe not Brosnan as seen in TND) but since Craig is a reboot I think we can assume no. and I suppose Cambridge would count as "Wherever"
    I'll give this one more day.
  • Mr_OsatoMr_Osato Posts: 398MI6 Agent
    In that case it has all to do with the cut of the suit.

  • screenamescreename Posts: 388MI6 Agent
    Yes!
  • Charmed & DangerousCharmed & Dangerous Posts: 7,358MI6 Agent
    I'm still none the wiser on this... Any clues? :#
    "How was your lamb?" "Skewered. One sympathises."
  • screenamescreename Posts: 388MI6 Agent
    She deduces that he went to Oxford by the cut of his suit. But he wear Brioni suits, Italian suits, therefore her deduction is wrong.

    Well tbh many Oxford and other Universiy grads could have suits made in Italy or wherever, so it doesn't necessarily follow that it's a wrong deduction.

    Good tailors in Savile Row or wherever in the world could provide a classically cut, or tailored, suit. Tom Ford is American but that doesn't mean everyone who wears a TF suit is American. Brioni (according to Wiki) offers 200 styles and cuts. And a good tailor will give you whatever cut you want.

    I think what she deduces is that as he has a well cut and expensive suit, which shows signs of class, he must have gone to Oxford or wherever... :D

  • screenamescreename Posts: 388MI6 Agent
    I suppose it's a matter of opinion.
  • Charmed & DangerousCharmed & Dangerous Posts: 7,358MI6 Agent
    Lively debate, sir, all in the pursuit of things Bondian :007)

    Screename, I think you should give us another question {[]
    "How was your lamb?" "Skewered. One sympathises."

    Eh, you can have it, I've already absorbed four days on here! :))
