Pussy Galore brings back fun memories.
Pussy Galore at 94 doesn’t.
Rest In Peace.
Her family must love the obits being printed all over the world.
The greatest name any Bond girl ever had.
RIP
I remember seeing Goldfinger when it came out in our local theater. I think my reaction to the name Pussy Galore was “Can they really say this?” Wasn’t she also the first Emma Peel?
“Well of course you are!” - Bond.
What will the earth do without Pussy Galore?
I’d like to know when that photo was taken because even in her later years she was a beautiful woman.Even with that grey hair.
RIP.
I hope the Pussy Galore Flying Circus flies a missing woman formation over her funeral.
I’m surprised that name was allowed in 1964. Didn’t they still have censorship back then?
Well I’ll watch Goldfinger today.
I suddenly have a hankering for an Arbys Roast Beef samich
From Austin Powers:
What’s your name?
Alotta Fagina.
Come again?
Alotta Fagina.
Oh, I’m sorry, I’m just not getting it, it sounds like you said your name was a lot of um... never mind!
Wasn’t she also the first Emma Peel?

No. She played Cathy Gale on “The Avengers” - the first female lead before Diana Rigg took over as Emma Peel.
I thought that was Diana Rigg(s?).
I think I was 11 or 12 when that came out. I saw it at a drive in with a bunch of 11-16 year old boys. Boy, did we get a giggle out of that.
Probably on TV maybe not so much in the theater
FTA: “She died peacefully of natural causes...”
The damnable liars who are manipulating statistics now to show the Wuhan Virus as a proximate cause of every current death will eventually touch this data point.
