Bond Orders a Vodka Martini

Dry martini. Wait... three measures of Gordon's; one of vodka; half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it over ice, and add a thin slice of lemon peel.

A) Bond's martini is always shaken, not stirred. B) the martini recipe is correct from the books, regardless of what may have been in previous films, C) people playing multi-million dollar card games are often rude to waiters and the waiters take it, because that rude bastard is liable to leave a $2,000 tip when he leaves.

Best bit is, right after this, everybody else at the table (except for Le Chifre) orders the same drink. Felix Leiter asks for it without the fruit, because MURICA.

Kudos to the barman. Because there's no fucking way I'd remember that order after only hearing it once.

imtwalsrus your wrong in you only live twice in which the drink is offered stirred, not shaken (Bond, ever the gentleman, ignores his host's gaffe, telling him the drink is perfect), and Casino Royale, in which Bond, after losing millions of dollars in a game of poker, is asked if he wants his martini shaken or stirred, and snaps, "Do I look like I give a damn?"
