Could Caroline Bliss have become a memorable Moneypenny? - CBn Forums (1467 words)
As it stands, Caroline Bliss is a mere footnote in Bond history: "The girl who played Moneyepenny in two Dalton films and didnt get much to do." She has some decent scenes in Daylights but the flirtations arent really handled all that well, it's nothing along the lines of the Connery/Maxwell scenes.
I think that Caroline Bliss could have turned out to be a fantastic Moneypenny had they actually given her scenes that were anywhere close to the quality of those that were given to Lois Maxwell.
Bliss was fine in The Living Daylights but had next to nothing to do in Licence To Kill and, as a result, wasn't memorable at all in that film.
