Actress Lois Maxwell, who was known to millions of fans through her role as Miss Moneypenny in a series of Bond movies, has died in Australia, an official said on Sunday. She was 80.
“She passed away on 29th September at 11:40 pm,” a spokeswoman for Fremantle Hospital in western Australia told AFP.
The Canadian-born actress had been living in Australia for several years because her son and his family are based there. She first played the character, with whom the 007 constantly flirted, alongside Sean Connery in Dr No in 1962.
