The Mysterious “Q”
Did you know that the man who (1) invented James Bond was a secret agent himself? Before he started writing the James Bond Stories, Ian Fleming worked for British Naval Intelligence. (2) During his career, Fleming met many important people and he used some of them as models for the (3) characters in his books.
If you’ve seen James Bond films, you remember “Q”. His (4) job is to make different spy gadgets that are disguised as (5) everyday objects like a pen or a toothbrush. “Q” is based on a (6) real person (7) named Charles
Frasier-Smith created all kinds of gadgets for British spies to use. (8) Among those gadgets were shoelaces that could be used as saws, pens that shot poison darts and hollow golf balls that were used to hide (9) masages to prisoners of war. He (10) hired more than 300 companies to make the gadgets in secret.
Fleming wrote Fraiser-Smith into the novels as Major Boothroyd, (11) whose name was changed to “Q” in the Bond films.
And the mysterious James (12) Bondtasks boss, “M”, is based on Admiral John Godfrey.
