charlie Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Several of the Bond girls — namely Ursula Andress, Shirley Eaton, Eunice Gayson, and Claudine Auger — were unable to match an alluring voice to their sexy physical attributes. For each of them, their lines were dubbed by aspirant actress Nikki van der Zyl, who later left the film industry to practice as a barrister. On Doctor No, van der Zyl did every female voice except Miss Moneypenny and a Chinese girl, and she also dubbed Raquel Welch's grunting in One Million Years B.C.
