MI7
Encyclopedia : M : MI : MI7 : MI7
MI7, the British Military Intelligence Section 7 (now defunct) was a department of the British Directorate of Military Intelligence, part of the War Office. MI7 was set up to look after propaganda and censorship.
MI7 was featured as an agency in the spy spoof film Johnny English, as the agency which the main character belongs to. It was also featured in several episodes of ChuckleVision; the producers presumably didn't realize that it had once existed.
In the first James Bond film, Dr. No, M's line that he is "the head of MI6" was dubbed over with the name "MI7" – presumably as the real MI6 was still supposedly "secret" at the time.
