    OHMSS screen test of Catherine Deneuve with Connery
    featured them (sloppily) dining on linguine.

    The eventual film included out all three.

    Without Terence Young to tell him what to do, Sean Connery was truly an idiot.

    At times Bond's sketchy relationship with Q and Q Branch
    complicated receiving gadgets in the field.

    Her treatment was starting to work, and she finally barfed up those tapeworms.
    Bond hadn t tasted meat since he came here to Shrublands, so he wasn t too picky.

    OO7 paused to consider whether he would let
    the missing cyanide tablet affect his enjoyment of the meal.

    In the haunted castle, Bond experienced the pasta way.

    Bond: For my next miracle, I shall put this entire plate of spaghetti in my mouth and pretend I’m a chipmunk.
    Q: *sigh* Spaghetti was not invented entirely for that purpose, 007.
    Moneypenny: Why are we all eating spaghetti in a castle again?
    Bond: Are you guys seeing this? Look! I got it all in there! Look! Hey, look! Guys, I’m a chipmunk!
    M: My god, you are a chipmunk…

    Blofeld sits up in bed gasping.

    Blofeld: That’s it. No more more fast food after 9pm.

    When not killing people, he would knit sweaters for Q.

    It happened again. For a moment
    Bond was transported back to Shrublands
    and the traction machine cycled faster and faster.

    Sean Connery is taken aback when it is revealed that director Terence Young had played a prank on him by telling him that English gentlemen eat pasta with spoons.

    As the kitchen door swung open, Sean caught a glimpse of Johnny Stompanato with a chef s hat.

    Then the script idea came to Sean
    like a bolt from the blue and a vision on high:

    they would KILL JAMES BOND as his last film!
    And be done with it!!

    The spaghetti eating scene from Thunderball was cut when Cubby saw how Connery was dealing with the plate. Not even Terence Young could save that one.

    OO7 took his cover assignment as an uncouth playboy with relish.
    And marina sauce.

    Excellent comments per usual. I was hoping someone would have stepped up and declared themselves the winner by now. Or that 008 would return from Hong Kong to choose for me. But failing either of those options...

    First, the runner-up with a not-so-therapeutic mid-spaghetti dinner flashback:

    Then, the winner with appropriate (and comical) homage paid to one of the earliest driving forces behind cinematic 007:

    I wi-- oh, wait.

    Thank you, @Some_Kind_Of_Hero. I also found @RichardTheBruce's runner-up hilarious.

    Searching for an image.

    George actually wouldn't have minded the amorous advances of Ilse Steppat.
    If only she hadn't insisted on staying in character as Irma Bunt.

    He didn t feel too good about the screen test so far. It would be make or break with the action sequence later.

    Day 5 of filming in Switzerland, ladies playing Blofeld's "angels of death" departed.
    So Mr. Lazenby made due with what was available. George abides.
