Characters from previous Bond movies are shown during the pre-title sequence of On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969), including Honey Ryder (Ursula Andress) and Dr. No (Joseph Wiseman) from Dr. No (1962), Tatiana Romanova (Daniela Bianchi) from From Russia With Love (1963) and Pussy Galore (Honor Blackman) from Goldfinger (1964)
A few other scenes/characters appear in another sequence right after this one…a great Throwback Thursday!
Well I’ve literally seen it all now on the Internet. For those inclined, feel free to head over to Etsy to buy the above statement piece 007 wears in the beginning of Goldfinger for only $99! You’ll be all the talk of your poolside swingers party at an obviously mid-century modern home!

Sean Connery is and always will be the best and my favorite actor to portray James Bond. My favorite James Bond movie may change periodically, but I’ll always point to Connery’s iconic introduction scene from Dr. No as the true definition of James Bond. RIP.
