Looks like Bond is a small part of the book
would you be bitter if you were told you couldn't attend a convention because the 'actress' didn't want you there?
Tell me, what 'regime'is that? the volunteer corps of a fan site?
And you're the only one on the net? You must have busy days!
Yep, you got me!

You might also have come to the conclusion English isn't my first language. Or, indeed, that during working hours I have little time to proofread everything I write. So i'll disregard any comment on your part regarding my writing until you can actually write in Dutch. Then we're on an even level.
I don't exactly know how that went down, and such an instand is always painful, but again, wasn't that after she had been unkind towards Shirley? I do get the feeling she finds herself above the rest and misjudged. I am certainly not going to buy that book. Too much negativety.

I'm sure she has done more,but this is a good selection.
Still nice to see the tread seems to be bumping nicely.
Buckle your seat belts, it's gonna be a bumpy ride.
Well if it is dull then you dont need to comment in the thread,wouldnt you agree ?
There is an awful lot of diatribe for this thread ..
For a long time if you posted on this thread it wouldn't bump - leading to accusations and conspiracy theories as to why it was semi-banned.
Yes, Van de Zyl is somewhat of a persona non grata with eon these days. Firstly Shirley Eaton refused to attend some convention if she was there - inevitably Van de zyl was then uninvited. It's clear that Nikki has some (perhaps understandable) bitterness about the lack of credit given to her for her voice roles, and she has been rude about some of the people she dubbed. You can look on her website and see it. Then there was the business about the foreword to her book withdrawn by Roger Moore, without clear reason.
On here, there was a thread created about the ongoing dispute and it was prevented from bumping by the powers that be.
That's what I gathered from being a long time reader of these forums.
Strange, almost as if you've been here before.
Certainly a sense of déjà vu.
Easy mate you're straying dangerously close to libel territory there.
The official line was, and always has been, that it was a computer glitch.
Just a glitch that coincidentally affected both threads about Nikki and no others.
Interesting, these are the actual words of a mod
Hi. It all surrounds some outrageous claims and half truths she made that were offensive to many Eon people and others associated with Eon.
Regardless of what people say or think about whether this site is affiliated to Eon (it isn't) we do have a good relationship with them and try to be sensitive to their feelings.
I am however trying to get the top dogs to relax this apparent censorship surrounding the woman. At the same time their are members on here who will deliberately be provocative about the subject, just to wind the mod team up. We will see what transpires ;-)
If you want to discuss Nikki van der Zyl and discuss her contribution to the series then go ahead.
:))
A mere couple of posts off topic results in the threat of a lock yet how many threads go on merrily for days without a single post actually on topic without being similarly threatened?
The 'Bond 25 Production Diary' thread for example meanders for weeks on end without the slightest morsel of news yet no posts in there are off topic at all.
Poor old Nikki really does get people all excited (not like that perverts - although she has got a nice voice) for some reason.
Who's having a go at the mods?
@TheWizardOfIce :)) I know right. Do the mods have a siren that goes off when Nikki's name is mentioned on the forums? Makes you think there's something else going on.
@Comte_de_Bleuchamp it's from a message in my inbox from one of the mods when I was confused why the thread wasn't bumping.
