Judi Dench has more screen time in Skyfall alone than Desmond Llewelyn had in his 17 films as Q, making her portrayal of M the most recurrent character in the series after Bond himself.
Wow, didn't know that. That's wild.
Among the names of those who died for their country, written on the wall towards the end, is Emma Pill. Clearly a reference to the Diana Rigg character.
As it has been already said, it is clearly a reference to the REAL Emma Pill: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0683468/?ref_=fn_al_nm_2
;)
Bond leans over one side of the building and sees the guards through and open window (or possibly missing window). He looks over the other side of the building and there are Venetian blinds (or whatever the correct word is) closed over the window. He then proceeds to through a flash bang grenade into the room. How did he do this? When he swings into the room he crashed through the still closed blinds.
Additionally, the clinic admission letter itself contains several requests from the patient, asking the patient not to eat on the morning of arrival as well as a requirement to pay the bill 'in full, prior to commencement of the treatment as there may be a risk of death' :))

Likewise Ronson, Captain Naz Hussein and the others mentioned throughout that film as having died in exactly the circumstances that would merit their inclusion on that wall. Can't understand why they didn't include them.
I always thought this didn't count with the continuity since M says she'll have his name struck off, but then again, I don't see them going out of their way to enter the ruined remains of MI-6, just to remove his name from the wall when the entire place will be demolished, anyway. So yes, the exclusion of his name doesn't make sense; however, it is possible that they never got around to adding Ronson, Hussein, and the other undercover agents due to the attack on MI-6.
Actually I confess I hadn't thought of that. If they moved out of the building immediately after the attack, as we saw in SF, then it makes sense that those names were never added.
Nice work @Qbranch!

Of course it makes sense that she would use an alias. Also, there were several cheques produced for the film, some left blank; some have signatures in different styles of handwriting- but they read 'Jordan'.

Therefore it seems the cheque Jinx gives Alvarez- the one that reads 'Johnson'- is a continuity error. It also seems the signature on the cheque Alvarez holds in his hands has a different style of handwriting again, but it's hard to tell from a distance.
As an aside, it would be interesting to learn which other characters besides Bond use an alias in the films and novels.
Yes, most notably at the crux of the remote control car chase.
If I recall it had something to do with the fact that Surrender was originally going to be the theme.
I hope Eon keep making such blunders. ;)
Continue ? :) getting the UK #1 is a big mile stone ( not for you obviously)
Same with the golden globe and the possibility of winning an Oscar ! It's all
Good to me. I hope Bond ( in all media) continues to win awards and prizes. :D
I answered your question-care to answer mine?
discussion personally, I'll drop out. ;)
