James Bond Jr. 1992 VHS cover

James Bond Jr. is a fictional character and the supposed nephew of Ian Fleming's masterspy James Bond. The name "James Bond Junior" was first used in 1967 for an unsuccessful spinoff novel entitled 003½: The Adventures of James Bond Junior written under the pseudonym R. D. Mascott. The idea of Bond having a nephew was used again in 1991 as an American animated series for television in which the title character defeats threats to the safety of the free world. The series was mildly successful and spawned six episode novelisations by John Peel writing as John Vincent, a 12 issue comic book series by Marvel Comics published in 1992, as well as a video game developed by Eurocom for the NES and the SNES in 1991.

Although these works are based on a character being the nephew of James Bond, Bond in fact was an only child.

Being an animated series, it regularly surpasses the Bond movies in terms of implausible gadgets and mad scientists, and the violence of the adult Bond series is nowhere in evidence.

Fans of James Bond generally do not consider James Bond Jr. to be part of official Bond canon, especially as it conflicts with the fact that Bond was an only child and that the series featured characters such as Dr. Julius No who had been previously dealt with in the films and/or novels. Jaws, a recurring villain from the Roger Moore film era, also made regular appearances, usually partnered with Nick Nack to form a bickering comical duo. Auric Goldfinger also appears (alongside his assistant from the Goldfinger movie, Odd Job), revealing he has a teenage daughter named Goldie Finger with equally expensive tastes.

Main characters

The various inhabitants of Warfield Academy, comprising James Bond Jr., his friends, Trevor Noseworthy and the two featured members of teaching staff, act as the series regulars, and all appear in almost every episode of the series. Sometimes only two or three of James's friends will accompany him on an adventure, leaving the others behind at Warfield to create a B-plot which normally revolves around Trevor's misguided attempts to get James into trouble.

  • James Bond Jr. - the series hero and possibly James Bond's nephew. He attends Warfield Academy and has lots of friends there who aid him in his missions. Romance is occasionally hinted at between Bond and Tracy Milbanks.
  • Horace 'I.Q.' Boothroyd III - a scientific genius and one of James' best friends. Very intelligent, quick-witted and highly logical, he is responsible for developing and building the many artifacts and gadgets that help James defeat agents of S.C.U.M. and save the day. The series depicts him as the grandson of Q (James Bond's gadget inventor played by Desmond Llewelyn in the James Bond movies).
  • Tracy Milbanks - daughter of the Academy headmaster Bradford Milbanks and one of James Bond Jr's closest friends. She regularly accompanies James on his missions and, despite being bossy and quick-tempered, sometimes betrays her feelings for him.
  • Gordon 'Gordo' Leiter - tanned, blonde, athletic and the 'strong fist' of the group, Californian Gordo is also kindly and amiable. The son of 007's CIA associate Felix Leiter, he never backs down when his comrades need a little muscle to solve their problems.
  • Phoebe Farragut - Tracy's best friend and the daughter of a rich businessman, Phoebe makes no secret of her crush on James, although the feelings are never reciprocated. She is portrayed as less confident and popular than others in the group.
  • Trevor Noseworthy IV - the antagonist of Warfield Academy. He comes from a wealthy family, and has an inflated sense of self-importance. Cowardly and spiteful, he regularly concocts outlandish plans to 'unmask' Bond Jr. in order to get him into trouble, which inevitably backfire with unpleasant consequences for Trevor.
  • Bradford Milbanks - an ex-Royal Air Force officer who now presides over Warfield Academy and is Tracy's father. Although serious and rigid at times, at heart he is a fair and accommodating headteacher and father.
  • Burton "Buddy" Mitchell - this former FBI agent and associate of 007's is the sports coach of the Academy. Strong and intelligent, Coach Mitchell often knows more about James Bond Jr's activities than he lets on to his colleagues, and often risks his job by allowing James to get into danger.

Villains

There were numerous villains in the series, most of whom worked for SCUM and made recurring appearances throughout the 65-episode run. Many characters looked nothing like their movie counterparts; for example, Dr No resembles a green-skinned, long-haired mutant. All recurring villains in the show are listed here, although some episodes (such as Sandblast featuring Egyptian megalomaniac Pharaoh Fearo) featured 'one-off' villains whose characteristics were too specific to the episode in question for them to be reused.

  • Scumlord - the mysterious leader of S.C.U.M.; rarely seen outside the shadows. He often relays commands to other S.C.U.M. villains via telescreen. He has a dog, named Scuzzball, who is often seen at his heel. Key appearances include The Beginning, The Thing in the Ice and Barbella's Big Attraction, though he commonly makes cameo appearances in episodes such as Invaders from S.C.U.M., Danger Train, Mindfield and Northern Lights.
  • Jaws - a dimwitted villain whose trademark is his steel jaw and teeth that destroy almost anything he chews up. He usually acts as a henchman for higher-ranking S.C.U.M. agents and is often paired with Nick-Nack. Appearances include The Beginning, Plunder Down Under, Never Give a Villain a Fair Shake, Barbella's Big Attraction, Sherlock IQ, The Inhuman Race, Quantum Diamonds, Queen's Ransom, Valley of the Hungry Dunes, No Such Loch, Fountain of Terror, Ship of Terror, Monument to S.C.U.M., The Thing in the Ice, S.C.U.M. on the Water, Between a Rock and a Hard Place, Invaders from S.C.U.M. and Northern Lights.
  • Nick-Nack - a particularly small henchman, often the butt of 'short jokes' from both James Bond Jr and his villainous 'other half', Jaws, with whom he is almost always coupled in S.C.U.M.'s various schemes. Appearances include Valley of the Hungry Dunes, Cruise to Oblivion, Sherlock IQ, The Thing in the Ice, Quantum Diamonds, Queen's Ransom, The Inhuman Race, Goldie Finger at the End of the Rainbow, Monument to S.C.U.M., Invaders from S.C.U.M. and Northern Lights.
  • Doctor Derange - a mad scientist with a strong French accent and an insane passion for radioactive materials and weapons, especially plutonium. He is by far the most frequently appearing villain in the series, clocking up at least sixteen episodes. He also features in nearly all of the spin-off material, suggesting he is also popular with fans. Appearances include The Eiffel Missile, Quantum Diamonds, The Inhuman Race, It's All In The Timing, Red Star One, Fountain of Terror , The Emerald Key, A Race Against Disaster, Invaders from S.C.U.M., Weather or Not, Monument to S.C.U.M, A Deranged Mind, Between a Rock and a Hard Place, Canine Caper and The Last of the Tooboos.
  • Skullcap - almost always found working for Doctor Derange. The top of his head has a massive steel lid encasing his upper skull and brain. He is extremely cold and insidious though not particularly cunning. Appearances include The Eiffel Missile, The Inhuman Race, It's All in the Timing, The Last of the Tooboos, The Emerald Key, Weather or Not, Thor's Thunder and Canine Caper.
  • Goldfinger - one of Bond Jr.'s cleverest and most manipulative villains; wherever there's gold, there's Goldfinger. His schemes are motivated entirely by greed, and he is most often assisted by henchman Odd Job. Appearances include Earth Cracker, Cruise to Oblivion, Goldie's Gold Scam and Killer Asteroid.
  • Goldie Finger - Goldfinger's spoiled and equally crooked daughter, who shares her father's love of gold and his ruthlessness in attempting to get it. Though occasionally teaming up with 'Daddy', she tends to prefer working with Barbella. Appearances include City of Gold, Going for the Gold, Goldie's Gold Scam and Goldie Finger at the End of the Rainbow.
  • Odd Job - much like Jaws and Nick-Nack, this guy is mostly seen working for the other villains, especially Goldfinger. He sports odd-looking jumpsuits (hence his name), a huge chain necklace bearing his OJ initials and flying goggles. His trademark razor-sharp hat is back, too, (it is now a miniature top hat instead of a bowler hat) and although originally he didn't speak (as in Goldfinger) he mysteriously began to do so later in the series. Appearances include Earth Cracker, Cruise to Oblivion, Far Out West, Killer Asteroid, A Deranged Mind, S.C.U.M. on the Water, Between a Rock and a Hard Place, Garden of Evil and Goldie's Gold Scam.
  • Barbella - a hot-tempered female bodybuilder, Barbella often exhibits almost superhuman strength. Cunning and cold, she has loyalty for no-one, least of all S.C.U.M., whom she betrays in one episode by attempting to destroy their international headquarters. She often works with Goldie Finger. Appearances include City of Gold, Barbella's Big Attraction, Going For The Gold, A Deranged Mind and Goldie Finger at the End of the Rainbow.
  • Doctor No - one of Bond Jr.'s most fiendish opponents, this version differs a lot from the original Dr Julius No: he has now green skin (presumably because he once fell in a toxic waste tank in the Bond movie) and cybernetic hands. His accent, costume and moustache are Asian-looking and many of his schemes involve ninjas, samurai swords and the like. Appearances include A Chilling Affair, Valley of the Hungry Dunes, The Sword of Power, Far Out West, Appointment in Macau, Garden of Evil and No Time to Lose.
  • Spoiler - a gravel-voiced S.C.U.M. agent who leads a band of savage, chain-wielding motorcyclists, allowing quick getaways from crime scenes. He has worked for various agents including Baron von Skarin, Dr. Derange and Doctor No. Appearances include Momument to S.C.U.M., Scottish Mist and No Time To Lose.
  • Walker D. Plank - a stereotypical pirate, complete with hook, eyepatch and a talking parrot (that also has an eyepatch and a peg-leg). His schemes are invariably nautical and typically involve pillage, plunder, and domination of all the oceans in the world. Jaws often works for him. Appearances include Plunder Down Under, Nothing to Play With, Never Give a Villain a Fair Shake, Ship of Terror, Queen's Ransom, Danger Train, Thor's Thunder and No Such Loch.
  • Baron Von Skarin - this wealthy Bavarian baron is also an international terrorist and firearms smuggler. Von Skarin is cold and cruel but never neglects his elegant appearance, as he's usually seen sporting high-price fur coats and a monocle on his right eye. He is often seen reporting directly to Scumlord and is apparently one of his more favoured agents. He is one of the less popular (and liked by fans) villains. Appearances include Dance of the Toreadors, Scottish Mist, Sherlock IQ, Live and Let's Dance, Catching the Wave and Northern Lights.
  • Ms. Fortune - a wealthy criminal aristocrat, Ms. Fortune's healthy bank balance never prevents her from pursuing further riches, typically through highly illegitimate means. Appearances include The Heartbreak Caper, Mindfield, Fountain of Terror, There But For Ms. Fortune and Danger Train and in one scene during Scumlord's meeting in Barbella's Big Attraction.
  • Snuffer - Ms. Fortune's crooked and deeply unpleasant butler and accomplice. Though Snuffer may look and sound like a butler, his ambitions are not nearly so humble and he enjoys devising particularly grisly ends for Bond and his friends. Ends every sentence with 'ma'am'. Appearances include Mindfield, The Heartbreak Caper, Fountain of Terror, There But For Ms. Fortune and Danger Train.
  • The Chameleon - this dangerous criminal has the ability to be a facial shapeshifter because of small mechanisms implanted under the skin on his face, which control his facial muscles allowing him to change his appearance almost instantly. Cunning and sly, he is a villain to be feared. Appearances include The Chameleon, Red Star One and The Art of Evil.
  • Tiara Hotstones - this jewel-loving mercenary shares somewhat of a rapport with James Bond Jr., and, despite being ruthless in achieving her aims, is inclined to pursue only jewels and money rather than power or world domination. Appearances include Dance of the Toreadors and Dutch Treat.
  • Maximillion Cortex - a diminutive villain with a very large brain - hence the name. Cortex is very wealthy but is always looking for ways to increase his bank balance further, and they're rarely legitimate. Appearances include Lamp of Darkness and Leonardo da Vinci's Vault.
  • Leftbrain and Rightbrain - Cortex's assistants; a pair of overweight halfwits whose size and intelligence counter those of their boss. While similar in appearance and completely inseparable, they are not actually related. Appearances include Lamp of Darkness and Leonardo da Vinci's Vault.
  • The Worm - the only recurring villain in the series apparently not to have been associated with S.C.U.M., The Worm is a first-rate terrorist and hypochondriac with an intense dislike of sunlight; thus, his plans often take place deep underground. Appearances include A Worm in the Apple and Pompeii and Circumstance.

Bond Girls

In most episodes James Bond Jr. encounters 'guest' women, whom he's often forced to rescue. Following in the 007 tradition, many of their names are based on puns or double entendres. Some of the more notable include:

Novelisations by John Peel

In 1992 Puffin Books published six novelisations of the James Bond Jr. animated television show. The books were written by John Peel under the pseudonym John Vincent, and were all based on episodes from the television run, albeit extended and modified to cater for a slightly older audience. Penguin Books is a British publisher founded in 1935 by Allen Lane. ... John Peel (born 1954) is a British writer, best known for his books connected to several television series. ...

  • A View To A Thrill - adapted from the TV episode The Beginning.
  • The Eiffel Target - adapted from the TV episode The Eiffel Missile.
  • Live And Let's Dance - adapted from the TV episode of the same name.
  • Sandblast - adapted from the TV episode Shifting Sands.
  • Sword Of Death - adapted from the TV episode Sword of Power.
  • High Stakes - adapted from the TV episode There But For Ms. Fortune.

Buzz Books Adaptations by Caryn Jenner

In the UK, four of the TV episodes were adapted by the young children's series Buzz Books.
