An extensive investigation into James Bond's love life suggests that he prefers brunettes to blondes. Researchers behind the study say that apart from having long dark hair, an ideal Bond girl is likely to have an American accent and carry a weapon. They came to this conclusion after assessing the physical traits of all 195 female characters in the first 20 Bond movies, and then differentiating the characteristics of the 98 who had "sexual contact" with Bond with those of the 97 who did not.
