GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    "were taken"

    "which came both from English spy and polymath John Dee and the breaking of a World War I German diplomatic code, and Bond's character and tastes, which came from, as Fleming himself put it "all the secret agents and commando types I met during the war", as well as Fleming himself." - shorten this sentence; maybe something like, "which came both from English spy and polymath John Dee, the breaking of a World War I German diplomatic code, Bond's character and tastes, as well as Fleming himself." I removed the clause I found redundant.

    Any copyright issues? What was James Bond's response?
    Not entirely sure I follow you here - could you clarify? As to Bond's response, it's referred to in the text ("a charming couple who are amused by the whole joke".[7])

    Name of the cigarette brand? With Morland, do you mean Morland, Cumbria?

    "sixty cigarettes a day", "80 cigarettes a day" - use consistent style

    Will review the table later
    "blowing up an Italian ship single-handedly himself" I am not sure why we need "himself" at the end.

    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

    a (major aspects): b (focused):
