I was flicking through the channels a few nights ago, and I came across 'Alan Carr: Chatty Man', a talk show over here in England, and I was surprised that Carr was interviewing Grace Jones. I kept it on for a while, hoping to pick up on some interesting Bond anecdotes, and boy, did I get one.

Grace Jones revealed that Roger was rather immature on set, and he always used to pick up random props and mess about with them during a take. However, when a member of the crew informed Grace about this, she decided to have a bit of fun with Moore. She went to to props department and came across a large black and white dildo (What it was doing there I don't know), but she took it.

When it came to the sex scene between Bond and May Day, Grace walked on set, and after Roger delivers the line about her taking care of Bond, she ripped her robe off, revealing that she was wearing the strap on, and jumped on top of him. I found it rather amusing, yet quite disturbing.

It would've been great to see Rogers reaction, though. :D

Yep, I've heard this story. Always considered it proper revenge for all the "pranks" Roger pulled on his female co-stars.

Roger mentions the "object" in passing in his autobiography, but not the full circumstances.

I'm sure it raised more than just an eyebrow.

One of my favourite quotes from her is the beautifully random "Roger Moore has the hardest legs of anyone I've ever met" :D

Just read some of the comments and I laughed out loud, especially at comments #5, #6 and #7.

I love Grace Jones. :tup:
