Irma Bunt (On Her Majesty's Secret Service)

Irma Bunt (Ilse Steppat) is the personal assistant to Ernst Stavro Blofeld who is the head of SPECTRE (Special Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion) (as played by Telly Savalas).
Irma Bunt is a very loyal assistant to the archvillain carrying out his every command. She is also completely ruthless. Blofeld is hiding out in Switzerland and attempting to become a Count by making the claim on the County and title of Comte Balthazar de Bleuchamp. He has had plastic surgery.
Bond (George Lazenby) is searching for Blofeld. He finds out through the father of a Corsican Organized Crime boss named Draco (Gabriele Ferzetti), whose daughter Tracy (Diana Rigg) Bond has been sleeping with, that Blofeld is hiding in Switzerland.
Blofeld a competitor of Draco’s and it appears that Bond is going to marry Draco’s daughter Tracy as soon as he catches the archvillain.
Bond poses as Sir Hilary Bray Herald in the London College of Arms and charged with checking out Blofeld’s claim on being the Count Balthazar de Beluchamp. Bond travels to Blofeld’s mountain top Eagle’s Lair to meet with Blofeld who has surrounded himself with beautiful woman from all over the world.
The women throw themselves at Bond who is wearing a kilt. Ruby Bartlett an English girl (Angela Scoular) flirts with Bond and writes her room number on his inner thigh under his kilt.
Later he reads the message which is just the number 8. Which happens to be her room number. As they are all locked in the ever-resourceful secret agent picks the electronic lock and sneaks over to room number 8. Where he, still posing as Sir Hilary Bray, seduces and sleeps with Ruby, promising to look up her family history, while perhaps advancing it to a new generation.
After sex the lights begin to flicker, and Ruby is put into a hypnotic trance. Bond realizes that Blofeld is hypnotizing the girls as part of a larger plot. 
Bond sexually satisfide Ruby sleeping and sneaks back to his room where he finds Nancy a Hungarian girl (Catherina Von Schell) waiting for him. She says that she wants to know about her family history. It's clear to Bond that Nancy like Ruby is missing the company of men. Bond (still incognito) sizes up the situtation and once again works his charm on her and beds the very beautiful Nancy.
Not a bad nights work for a man engaged to be married.
The next day Bond attempts to make the rounds a second time, slipping into Ruby’s room for a bit of more of the same only to find Irma Bunt under the covers. Bond is then knocked out and wakes up in Blofeld’s headquarters.
Bond manages to escape and skis down the mountain chased by Blofeld and his goons. Bond skis down a toboggan ramp and Blofeld follows only to be taken out by a tree.
Tracy and Bond are married and James Bond quits the secret service and goes on his honeymoon.
While driving down the road they are passed by a car driven by Blofeld (in a neck brace) with Irma Bunt holding an M16 with a muzzel flash surpresser. She riddles Bond and Tracy’s car, killing Tracy instantly but missing James Bond.
Irma Bunt is the most effective henchperson Bond has ever come up against. Causing the celebrated secret agent more personal damage than any other villain in all the movies.
TRIVIA:
* In the film "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" Blofeld after being defeated by James Bond (Sean Connery) in the last movie (You only Live Twice) is hiding out in Switzerland and attempting to become a Count. Although Bond and Blofeld met in the last movie Blofeld doesn’t recognize James Bond in this movie as 007 is being played by Australian male model George Lazenby. Telly Savalas is playing Blofeld replacing Donald Pleasence in the last movie.
* The real reason the two foes don’t recognize each other is that the movies were made out of order from the books. In the series by Ian Flaming "On her Majesty’s Secret Service" (1963) was published before "You Only Live Twice" (1964).
*Blofeld was first introduced in Fleming's 1961 book "Thunderball" along with SPECTRE.
*Fleming wrote Thunderball as a screenplay with the help of a number of other writers. When the movie deal for the original Thunderball fell through Fleming wrote the story as a novel. The novelization of an unfilmed James Bond screenplay, was created by five people: Ian Fleming, Kevin McClory, Jack Whittingham, Ivar Bryce and Ernest Cuneo. The other colaberators sued Flemming and the court ruled that Fleming had to share credit, royalties, and ownership of Thunderball, Blofeld and SPECTRE with McClory and Whittingham. But not Ivar Bryce and Ernest Cuneo who apparently didn't contribute as much.
*In the Ian Flaming books Blofeld his discribed as having a Polish father and a Greek mother. Making Telly Savalas, who was Greek-American, the most closest in ethnicity of all the actors to have played the part. Savalas gives a very strong performance in the part but unforchenately his charactoriazation was so different to that of Donald Pleasence, the first actor to play the part that Savalas's Blofeld is often overlooked.
*The novel "On her Magesty's Secret Service was written after the first movie "Dr. No" which came out in 1962 and was a huge hit. Fleming liked the movie, and decided that Bond should be Scottish like Sean Connery. In the book Fleming mentions Bond's back ground as the son of a Highland Scot for the first time and he also mentions Ursula Andress (who appeared in Dr. No) by name. (Fleming's grandfather was a wealthy banker from Scotland.)
*George Lazenby only made one Bond movie fearing that he would be type cast and thinking he could cash in on all the fame from being an instant star. However quitting really hurt his reputation and no major studio wanted to risk hiring him in a starring role after his one shot at playing 007.
