I liked her Goldfinger handle better.

Sorry to hear this. She certainly was a hottie back in the day.

I never understood why, but there is something sexy about the name Emma. But in true life Diana actually didn't like being cast in the role of a sex symbol, nor did she expect it!

Lovely woman, lovely actress

'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' was the first movie to be made without Sean Connery, and the movie with Lazenby was panned by most at the time as a huge flop, but today, many see the Lazenby Bond movie to be one of if not the best of all ever produced, and the sudden, shocking, tragic ending with Bond's wife, Tracy (Diana Riggs) to be one of the most moving and real in all of the James Bond films where not all always ends happily and well for the secret agent. It literally leaves you in tears.
