Lost film scenes, Part 17 - James Bonds' Deaths, Part 6 - Octopussy (1983)

In 1983, two rivalling Bond movies hit the movie theaters. In the apocryphic one starring once again Sean Connery after a 12-year break. Of course, the producers fought each other to the bone. Roger Moore's side scored a coup, when they got Sean Connery for a very well paid "cameo" as the obligitory previous-Bond-kill scene at the beginning of the movie.

As a first surprise scene, Miss Moneypenny, while leading James Bond into M's office, suddenly turns around and kills him by throwing him with his head against the hat hook at her office wall, when he fondled her. What she has dreamed of for decades. Him fondling her, that is. She figured, this Bond was not only presumed dead before, but he would not be interested in her that way, so he must be an impostor. Right she was! As a potshot against the other production, the new Sean Connery Bond was declared to come from an evil mirror universe.
