JAMES BOND ACTRESS, HONOR BLACKMAN, CHOSE ACCENT REDUCTION OVER NEW BIKE
When she was young, the late actress, Honor Blackman's father
 gave her a choice of a brand new bicycle or lessons to change her Cockney dialect.  She chose the lessons.  The rest is history as she became a "memorable James Bond adversary" in the film ​Goldfinger.
