RIP Honor Blackman, 94.
A wonderful actress, and my favourite of all the Bond girls when she played Pussy Galore in Goldfinger. She died of natural causes. Her family said she was ‘an extraordinary combination of beauty, brains and physical prowess’.
Yes she was. What a life. pic.twitter.com/odS791EqfX— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) April 6, 2020

The sad news about Honor Blackman reminded me to search out a wryly scathing letter she once wrote to the Guardian picture desk, which I saved from being put in the rubbish bin during the newspaper’s move to new offices nearly a decade ago. pic.twitter.com/ek18LEAsQv
