The "Figures" of the Bond Girls

They are all well rounded, but what are the figures of the Bond girls? I'm thinking of the oldest/youngest, tallest/shortest and of course the one with the shortest/longest "chest measurement". Could the last one be Maria Grazia Cuccionotta, the lady who presented the "figures" to 007?

    I don't know what happened to it, but no one had touched it (there'd be an "Edited by. . ." notice under the post). Still, I went ahead and put in your original title, though "The" was certainly more intriguing!

    Since "height" has come up. By chance, does anyone know which Bond Girl was the shortest?

    Man, I love that :x

    I'm 6'4", and girls that height are great for slow dancing ;)

    What a great idea for a topic. These figures might bear further investigation :v

    [one slight bit of investigation later]

    I can't believe that, according to imdb, Ursula Andress is only 5'5" (1.65 metres)...? :o

    I'd always thought she was more Amazonian in stature...

    Well, I'm 6'1" I think girls around 6'6" are great for slow dancing. I just bury my head in their cleavage and I'm lost to the world. :D

    I suppose that'd be great if you can find one :))

    it's nice to see I started a topic that inspires so much .... conversation. And being 6' 2'' myself I agree being tall can be nice, at least some of the time. However, do any of you have any thoughts/information about what I asked about?

    Well...I did look up Ursula Andress' surprising (lack of) height... ;)

    As for bustline measurements

    ...it's challenging enough just to get these actresses over to one's house :v ---it's quite another to get out the tape measure and say: "Do you mind if I confirm a couple of things?"

    ;% :D

    I'll keep investigating, mind you---but I just wanted to keep you apprised of the inherent difficulties :)

    Yes, you looked up Ursula's height. Thanks, that's very good. I wasn't trying to criticize people for chatting, but I se how it could be read that way. I just tried to get the talk a little bit back on track. About the chest measurements... Well, I see your problem. It would have been a nice job if you could get it.
    But I think there are places on the internett where some people have given this a lot of thought, so don't give up our noble quest just yet!

    Daniella Bianchi in FRWL was 21 at the time the film came out. I think that makes her the youngest ever. It struck me that I should have found the oldest while I was looking, it would have been so easy. Strange how my mind works!

    Daniela was dressed in such an old fashioned way in that film. All those white blouses, pencil skirts and polo neck sweaters just made her look buttoned up and matronly. I had no idea she was so young!

    However, Jenny Flex is the youngest Bond girl at only 18 years of age!

    Young enough (nearly) to be Bond's granddaughter in that film. Lovely :o

    The shortest Bond girls I could find was Lana Wood (Plenty o'Tool in DAF) and Lynn-Holly Johnson (Bibi Dahl in FYEO) both just 160 cm (5'3''). Even Daniel Craig would look tall next to them :-)
    But perhaps we should try to define a "Bond-girl"? In my oppinion it's not enough to be in a Bond film. You must have more than one scene and at least flirt with Bond.

    Just classic. :))


    That reminds me of an old girlfriend I had; I'm 6'-3" and she was 6'-5" (hot Amazonian-type). You can imagine just how great slow dancing was with her...it was like laying on a vertical bed. :D

    Now for the most dignified part of this thread - bust size! Denise Richards is a (fake) 36 C but Maria Grazia Cucinotta, also from TWINE, is a 39 C. Both facts are from the seedy IMDB. I don't know if this is a Bond reccord, but I bet Maria is a major player in this competition.

    I don't know Luciana Paluzzi's exact statistics, but I don't need to. All I know is I want to give her a pulled hammy, or her give me a pulled hammy. Or we could pull each other's hammy's.
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 22,340MI6 Agent
    I'm not shure if I understood that one, I'm not even shure I want to understand that one...
    Instead I'll inform you that Maud Adams was 38 when she made Octopussy. I think that's a reccord!

    It was most appropriate to have an older Bond girl. Moore's 2 other films in the 80's had too much of an age difference. I think Britt Ekland is the closest in age to Roger Moore (some 15 years I think).

    Diana Rigg, Honor Blackman, Zena Marshall I believe are the only Bond girls older than Bond at the time.

    I agree. A twenty-something Bond-girl would be wrong for the aging Moore.
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 22,340MI6 Agent
    It also strikes me that the Bond girls are a surprisingly diverse group. Ranging from 160 cm (5'3'') to 180 cm (5'11'') in height. Spanning 20 years in age difference. Bust size from at least 39 C to ....?
    Well, here is a problem. I think finding the one with the one with the smallest bust size is a much more difficult than the large-busted ones. It's a bit like being the tallest dwarf in the world.
    On the suggestion about finding the fattest and skinniest - you need to figures to do this: their height and weight. Height is easy, but good luck finding their weight. It seems to be easier to get them to give the press their bust size!
