An HMS Ranger crewman who goes with the sub's first officer in a bid to take the Liparus's control room. He doesn't make it. (TSWLM)
James Bond Theme, The
Bond recognises this tune when Vijay plays it on his arrival in Delhi - does this mean that Bond is one of the 50% of the world's population who have seen a James Bond film? (OP)
Janni
(Michael Brennan)
One of Largo's henchmen, squat with large sideburns. (TB)
Janus Syndicate
A group of highly respected/feared arms dealers operating from St Petersburg following the collapse of the Soviet Union. They were the first people to restock the Iraqis after the Gulf War, and are powerful and organised enough to steal weapons directly from the military (as they do with the French Tiger helicopter) and wealthy enough to construct a duplicate of the Severnaya control centre to take command of the remaining Goldeneye satellite. Their leader is a mystery, known only as 'Janus' - he turns out to be Alec Trevelyan, agent 006, whom Bond had thought to be dead. (GE)
Jaws
(Richard Kiel)
A hired killer, known to both MI6 and the KGB, who works freelance for any world-threatening villain willing to pay him. Over seven feet tall, Jaws is immensely strong and apparently indestructible (he survives being crushed by falling masonry, rammed into a wall by a van, electrocuted, thrown from a speeding train onto an electric fence, driving over a cliff and crashing into a house, being shot in the teeth, an attack by a shark, the flooding and explosion of Atlantis, falling from a plane without a parachute, a cable-car crash, going over a waterfall and the destruction of Drax's space station), killing his victims with his razor-sharp steel teeth. He can also bite through wood, chains and even steel cables, and is strong enough to punch through metal plate. Jaws turns to the side of good when, aboard Drax's space station, he realises that Drax's idea of the physically perfect master race doesn't include him or his new love, Dolly. He helps Bond to escape the disintegrating station, and is picked up with Dolly by the US Space Marines as they depart.
Jaws's only line of dialogue in his two appearances is "Well, here's to us." (TSWLM, MR)

Jet Pack
A one-man jet backpack made by Bell-Textron, used by Bond to escape from Colonel Bouvois's chateau after killing the transvestite SPECTRE agent. As Bond remarks, "No well-dressed man should be without one." (TB)
Jetstar
Small four-engined jet manufactured by Lockheed. Goldfinger uses one as his private plane, and coincidentally Bond was to be flown to Washington after foiling Goldfinger's plans in a very similar aircraft. (GF)
JIM
A pressurised, anthropomorphic diving suit which can work at depths of up to 3,000 feet. The suit is fitted with waldo claws for picking up objects - or for ripping through other peoples' suits. Kristatos owns at least two - one is in his Albanian warehouse, which was destroyed in an explosion, and the other is sent to the wreck of the St Georges to recover the ATAC. The latter is blown to pieces by Bond when he attaches the ATAC's destruct system to its back. (FYEO)
Jobert, Lt Commander Bernard
The pilot of the Tiger helicopter, murdered by Xenia Onatopp just prior to her theft of the aircraft. Oddly, the badge on his flight suit clearly lists him as a captain. (GE)

Jones, Kimberley
(Mary Stavin)
The MI6 agent who picks Bond up from Siberia after recovering a microchip from the corpse of 003, along with some caviare and vodka. She gets to spend five days alone with Bond in a submarine disguised an a small iceberg on the way to Alaska, which could be Bond's longest relationship on record. (AVTAK)
Jones, Mr
(Reginald Carter)
Although claiming to be a chauffeur from Government House in Jamaica, Jones is actually one of Dr No's assassins. His attempt to kill Bond is, inevitably, a failure. He commits suicide by swallowing a poison capsule in a cigarette rather than allow Bond to obtain information from him. (DN)
Jones, Mr and Mrs
The names under which Bond and Tiffany Case book into the bridal suite at the Whyte House in Las Vegas. (DAF)
Junk
Scaramanga's personal yacht. Although it looks like an ordinary sailing vessel from the outside, inside it is luxuriously equipped, and has engines that can take its owner anywhere in the South China Seas. (TMWTGG)
Junkanoo
The Nassau equivalent of Mardi Gras. A wounded Bond takes temporary refuge from Fiona Volpe and her thugs by hiding in one of the carnival floats. (TB)
