I chose Tiffany Case.

[SPECTRE ASSASSIN]

Fiona Volpe, easily!! Love Italian women.

Tiffany Case is attractive, but I despise her character!

[Sun Tzu]

Doesn't Diana Rigg count?

If not I'll go for Fiona. Despise Case.

[Bondian]

I voted Fiona Volpe as well.

[Righty007]

Doesn't Diana Rigg count?

Isn't she a brunette?

[Mister Asterix]

Fiona.

Yup.

[ComplimentsOfSharky]

Fiona Volpe......hhmmm



thoughts Elliot?

"Delicious"

[Qwerty]

Fiona. Fiona. Fiona.

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Fiona, definitely. My pick for the most ravishingly beautiful woman to appear in a 1960s Bond film.

Helga looked better as a brunette(her natural color, I believe) in Hitchcock's Topaz. However, she and Tiffany are both underrated.

Hmmm...I see I like all 3 Bond redheads. The series needs more lasses with fiery tresses IMHO.

[Blofeld's Cat]

Fiona Volup(e)tuous!

Definitely.

Without a doubt. Love the femme fatales on the whole.

I own Topaz, and I actually liked her with the red hair in You Only Live Twice. She'll always be overshadowed by Fiona Volpe though.

Fiona brings that dangerous edge to her the others lack. That line about "Do you like wild things, Mr. Bond, Mr. James Bond" is one of the best seduction lines of the whole series. Another case of 'they don't make 'em like they used to.'

[Skudor]

Fiona for me... and most people it would seem

You said it. The best femme fatale in the series.

Personally I have a thing for Ms Onatopp

[Qwerty]

Good indeed - nearly all of them are IMO.

I like Onatopp too, but she seems like such an, excuse the expression, over-the-top character. The same with Fiona's NSNA counterpart. TB's Fiona isn't mentally unbalanced to the point of being almost a comic book creation as those too are. They worked fine and I enjoy both, but TB Fiona's grounding made her that much more effective, especially when she dies.

[mccartney007]

Fiona, baby.

[DLibrasnow]

I voted for Helga Brandt....but it was really a toss-up between her and Fiona.

[Mister Asterix]

[mra]Amazing we haven

[Tanger]

Don't really go for redheads myself. I'm more of a brunette guy.

[Mr. Somerset]

"Don't care much for redheadsh. Terlible tempuh."
Seriously, Fiona's my choice. What about Natalya???????????????????????????????????
I do love Karin Dor as well, but Luciana Paluzzi
was the role model for the "bad Bond girl"!

In the "Inside You Only Live Twice" documentary on the DVD, a very brunette Karin Dor states they were looking for a tall blond German girl for the role of Helga and ended up with her. So they changed her hair to red. I think they probably did that so she would resemble Luciana Paluzzi/Fiona Volpe and continue the tradition of lethal SPECTRE redheads and probably to make her contrast more sharply with Aki and Kissy.

If Miss Dor hadn't been cast, I think German blond actress Elke Sommer,who played femme fatales in the Bond spoofs Deadlier Than The Male and The Wrecking Crew, would have made an excellent Helga Brandt.

Totally. She was almost a Fiona clone.

[Genrewriter]

I went for Fiona.

[Brian Flagg]

I voted Tiffany Case. I just love Jill St. John. She's also in the Frank Sinatra detective film Tony Rome, from 1967. IMO, her performance in the Sinatra film would have been better suited for DAF, but I'll take her any way I can get her...she also looked good as a brunette in DAF. Besides, I couldn't let her stay in the gutter with Helga Brandt!

BTW, I REALLY like Fiona, but I actually prefer her as a henchwoman/black widow type rather than as a pin-up. I'll never forget her in black leather on the motorcycle...

[Onyx2626]

I voted Tiffany Case. She seemed not to notice how scantily she was dressed. I love that.

[007.5]

Helga Brandt but only narrowly ahead of Fiona Volpe.
