Goodbye, Moneypenny

Lois Maxwell, the original Moneypenny (and like M, only one of two that were any good) has died.

Until the Brosnan Bonds (and recasting the part for the second time) there was only one director who "got" Moneypenny, and that was Terrence Young (Dr. No, From Russia With Love, and Thunderball). Everyone else made her a goof ball. (Ok, Peter "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" did alright.)

If you count Bond, M, and Moneypenny as "the original three", that leaves only Sean Connery still standing.
