What type of hat does James Bond wear when playing golf in Goldfinger?
Bond played a Penfold Heart golf ball in his match against Goldfinger in the movie of the same name. This was Sean Connery's third Bond role in the third Bond movie and it was whilst filming the golf match scene against Auric Goldfinger that Connery developed his love of golf. The Penfold Heart golf ball (famed for the red heart logo imprinted on the face of the ball) became an unlikely star in its own right : orders for the Penfold Heart (produced by Penfold Golf at their Bromford Lane factory in Birmingham, UK) sky-rocketed after the release of Goldfinger. Some 30 years later, after a long absence, the Penfold Heart is back in action. Penfold Golf has been reformed and in August 2008 re-launched its famous Penfold Heart golf ball. The first 500 dozen were produced as collector' sets - made to commemorate the centenary of the birth of 007's creator, Ian Fleming.
Indeed, the re-released Penfold Hearts made their first re-appearance at Ian Fleming's old golf club - The Royal St. George's in Sandwich, Kent at a charity golf match played to raise money for The British Heart Foundation. (It was at the Royal St George's where President Elect of the club, Ian Fleming suffered his fatal heart attack.)
The special Ian Fleming Centenary collector's sets of 12-dozen Penfold Hearts, selling for £50, soon grabbed the attention of Bond fans worldwide - with sets from www.penfoldgolf.com selling as far afield as USA, Australia, Hungary, Sweden, Belgium and the Ukraine. The Penfold Heart is now being released by Penfold Golf as a playing ball (ie. as an approved playing ball, not just as a Bond memorabilia set of golf balls) to be released December 2008.

How old was david niven when he played James Bond?
Peter contributed to Casino Royale as the character Evelyn Tremble but Geoffrey Rush's portrayal implicates (rejected) attempts by Sellers to treat the Bond role more seriously. One wonders what path Sellers career might have taken had the Bond producers taken his attempts seriously, but it seems that their target was the fine spoof that resulted in any case. It's also worth noting the degree at which the more recent version went to (seriously) follow the detail in this original. Shaken or Stirred 007 never looked better saving us all from the world's tourists. - A.Belz

Which actress appears in most Bond films than any other?
I believe you mean which actor has been in more James Bond films than any other, as James Bond is a fictitious character. Roger Moore has been in seven official James Bond films from EON Productions (Live and Let Die, The Man with the Golden Gun, The Spy who Loved Me, Moonraker, For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy, and A View to a Kill). Sean Connery originally starred in six Bond films from 1962 to 1971 (Dr. No, From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, and Diamonds are Forever). However, he returned as Bond in 1983 for the Warner Bros. film Never Say Never Again, an unofficial remake of Thunderball. This places Moore and Connery in a tie for the actor who has played the Bond the most times, although Connery's seventh film is not considered canonical.
Who created agent 007 aka James Bond?
Originally Peter Smith.
A 009 first appears in Thunderball. Mischka and Grischka kill him (dressed as a clown) after the opening credits in Octopussy by throwing a knife into his back as he tries to escape them. In The World Is Not Enough, M assigned another 009 to kill Renard; despite putting a bullet in his head, Renard lives with the bullet in his head slowly killing off his senses. In Quantum of Solace another 009 MI6 agent is assigned as M's sentinel. The graphic novels Deadly Double and Serpent's Tooth feature a fourth agent 009.
