But...
In reading over this tragic news article, I came across this quote from Roger Moore:
“It was a great pity that, after I moved out of Bond, they didn’t take her on to continue in the Timothy Dalton films. I think it was a great disappointment to her that she had not been promoted to play M. She would have been a wonderful M.”
What a wonderful idea. I think Ms. Maxwell could have played a WONDERFUL M. We'd have seen the "progressiveness" of the Pierce Brosnan era some eight years earlier with a female M playing opposite Timothy Dalton. Who else thinks this would have been just a spectacular idea? I know this was probably just a toss-off comment by Roger, but I think it actually has some merit. For some reason I really smile at the idea of Dalton's Bond reporting to a superior who the three Bonds prior spent time teasing and flirting with. Could have given us a nice sense of continuity, as well. What does everyone else think?
