Fun Fact! James Bond is a Scotsman. Because of Sean Connery
Obviously, James Bond is a British legend, yet he is of Scottish heritage. This is particularly evident in films like Skyfall, in which Bond returns to his childhood home in Scotland. However, Bond's lineage was not revealed until later in the series. Following the popularity of Dr. No, which starred Sean Connery as the famous spy, Ian Fleming incorporated Bond's Scottish origin. Of course, Connery is Scottish. Fleming specifically included these Scottish facts in the 007 novel You Only Live Twice, eternally establishing Bond's background. Connery would subsequently feature in the cinematic version of the book, however it was hardly faithful to the source material.
