Christmas Jones
Encyclopedia : C : CH : CHR : Christmas Jones
Dr. Christmas Jones is a fictional character from the James Bond movie The World Is Not Enough. She was portrayed by Denise Richards.
Relatively little is known about Dr. Jones; she is an American nuclear physicist working in Russia to dismantle nuclear warheads so as to reduce the Russian inventory in line with treaty obligations. A young and highly attractive woman with a penchant for wearing revealing and tight clothing, she attracts much gawking from men, something she dislikes. As a result, she tends to be rather defensive and even aggressive towards the men she meets. She particularly dislikes jokes being made about her forename.
On their initial encounter Jones distrusted Bond, who was working undercover to investigate Renard's presence at a Russian missile facility. Some fans speculate that the American Jones may have attended a British university, as she knew enough about British culture to realize that Bond was lying to her, but this is not supported by the film. When she realized that Bond was not who he claimed to be, she alerted both the authorities and, unintentionally, Renard; as a result, Renard was able to escape with a nuclear warhead.
Once she learned of Renard's plot to destroy the pipeline, she assisted Bond in his mission. In classic Bond-movie fashion, she became highly attracted to him, and they consummated their relationship after the end of the mission. The experience prompted Bond to comment with the memorable line that until then, he "thought Christmas only comes once a year."
