Re Terrill's comments below:

"ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE is a terrific non-Connery
Bond. Lazenby
is a bit stiff but I think he could have grown into the role
if he had
been given a chance. I think the film itself is superior to
most of the
other Bonds. Diana Rigg is fantastic casting as a "Bond
Girl". So perfect
he MARRIED her!"
I agree. *OHMSS* is the best of the non-Connery films, one of
the most
faithful adaptations of the original novel source. Diana Rigg
was a geat
"Bond Girl," and Telly Savalas was the best of the actors who
played
Blofeld, Bond's personal Moriarty, in the movies. If Connery
had been in
it, it would probably have been my favorite. As it was,
Lazenby wasn't
nearly as bad as everyone said at the time, and probably, as
you say,
would have gotten better with time. - Jim Doherty
