I felt like poor Gemma must've filmed about twice the number of scenes they actually showed, her part seemed to be cropped to death. I mean, she showed up, shagged Bond (with NO real sexual tension beforehand - it was just like "Oh look fields, we're in a pretty room"), tripped someone up and then got abandoned.

FIELDS is part of the new shorthand of Bond films. Do we really need three scenes setting up sexual tension when it is sort of there from the off as BOND doesn't want his wings clipped by a young office girl. The cut to them in a post coital moment sort of says all you need to know - that BOND can bed whoever he wants and that FIELDS was the pushover we all knew she would be (she's hardly demurely dressed when we first encounter her).
