How has the iconic status of the Bond girl endured for so long? Bond Women will explore how the archetype of the `Bond girl’ has evolved over the last forty years and reveals how she became and continues to be one of the strongest and most resilient symbols of 20th century pop culture. Maryam d’Abo will describe how Bond girls have reflected and defined the changing image of women in the real world.
