In the Ian Fleming novels "M" is Admiral Sir Miles Meservey, and M stands for his initials. The concept is of course based on "C", as MrMagnificentMedia explains below.
@MrMagnificentMedia it comes from how Sir Mansfield Smith - Cumming head of MI6 used to sign letters with his initial 'C' in green ink on all his letters and Ian fleming liked the idea of having this fictional head of MI6 do the same thing however in real life the initial 'C' in MI6 stands for chief
I was quite impressed by my first viewing of Dame Judi Dench as "M" in "Goldeneye", especially when she said, " If you think for one moment I don't have the balls to send a man out to die, your instincts are dead wrong."
She still has her female side though which became apparent when she witnessed Bond's cold blooded execution of Elektra King.
i think that it is great that M is a woman! i cannot picture M as a male in the 21st century! Judi Dench, picture perfect for the role by far!! The Best M by far! did you know that M was orignally named after a women. Ian Flemming refered his mum as, M.
@charlieiscool1000 your opinion of course, i personally think she made the best M, people just never like a women having a "best" anywhere near them if they aren't the original.
Being a woman has nothing to do with it she is damn good as M i agree but barned lee will always be M to me i do normally hate comparing the two but WTF has her being female got to do with being better or worse?
Absolutely SPOT ON choice. Judi Dench is perfect for this role and her character is the epitome of the perfect intelligence boss. Well Done.
