Apologies if this has already been discussed, but with so many different birthdays existing for Bond, which is most likely the correct one? I would think its 11 November 1920.

    I think John Pearson says it is in his book on Bond.

    Thanks for the reminder!
    The birthday is coming up. Fleming changed the date around as he worked through the books. Bond got marginally younger as Fleming went along.
    I'm good with Boyd's 1924 date that he extrapolated from Fleming for his continuation novel Solo.

    Thus Bond is turning 90 this week. As we learned in Samantha Weinberg's MP Diaries, Final Fling, the real Bond, Fleming's Bond, is retired and living in a small house on an island off the English coast.
    Still takes a stiff belt at noon.

    This thread needs a better title in order to solicit birthday wishes.
    eg "Nov11, 2014; wish 007 a happy 90th"
    I am powerless to change it.
