Trivia
(The World Is Not Enough)

35 boats where actually used to create the action packed chase down the Thames in the pre-credit sequence!

During the boat chase, Bond soaks two wheel clampers, one of these was Ray Brown who starred in a docu-soap about wheel clampers in the UK. They were actually told that they would only get "slightly wet"!

When Bond watches a report about Elektra King's kidnapping, the BBC set had to be recreated just to film the sequence with real news reporter Martyn Lewis.

Producer Michael Wilson can be seen once again - he is the man who gives Elektra something to sign as she enters her private booth in Valetin's casino.

Ten takes of the scene between Bond and Elektra in bed could not be used due to the fact a nipple was visible!

Although Zukovsky is seen to be shot and collapses on the floor, it is rumoured that his injury might not be fatal.

The ski-para hawk attack scene was inspired by the ski chase in On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969). Filmmakers wanted to connect the film with the one which its title is derived from.

The sequence at Zukovsky's caviar factory, where Bond and Christmas Jones are being chased by helicopters carrying razor-sharp sawblades, was originally scripted in GoldenEye (1995). However, the film was running a bit long and filmmakers dropped it from the script and it was never filmed.
