Bond girls have it a lot easier now but we had more fun

BRITT Ekland says the Bond girls of today do not have as much fun as they did in her era. 

But the 80-year-old actress admits her time as a sex symbol in films in the 1960s and 1970s was “tough”.

And Britt, who played Mary Goodnight in 1974 007 film The Man with the Golden Gun, reckons things have changed for the better in some ways.

She said: “There are no more Bond girls, they’re Bond women today. With political correctness and MeToo, they have a much better time than we had.

“But I don’t think the end product is as fun, because we were pretty and we had good bodies, and we didn’t try to look sexy, we just were. Today, everything is so, ‘Don’t do that as that will upset that side’. We didn’t have that.

“We were always in a bikini and all these people [now] are fully dressed.
