'tall slim and dark' 'so is my aunt'
Probably the only reference they ever make to Bond's family.
shareAlso probably purely sarcastic
shareBut it's canon that his aunt raised him after his parents died.
shareTrue, but the movies don't follow the books all that well in a lot of ways, or perhaps he was raised by his aunt in the films but still making a joke about a made up aunt for the sake of the joke.
In any case, I sincerely doubt it was referencing his aunt from the books, seemed like just a wise crack than an actual reflection.
"Perhaps he was raised by his aunt in the films".
Well, I donΒ΄t really recall such a film. However, they should definitely make it - mighty interesting to see Bond being raised by that tall and slim and dark older woman in some rural location as this Ultimate Prequel: The Impressionable Years. Perhaps they could slip some exciting ploughing (erm...) and milking of the cows into it, too.
