James Bond - Ian Fleming

These films and books are characterised by a lot of action, mysterious weapons, dark, dangerous places and situations and, of course, blonde women with full bosom. The writer created a fantasy world that probably cannot be compared with his own work as a secret agent.
Ian Fleming was an aristocrat and therefore probably, like Churchill, of the conviction that fascism in Germany, Italy and Hungary was less bad than communism and could even form a barrier against it.
Hitler and Mussolini had already actively supported the dictator Franco during the Spanish civil war. On the side of the republic, however, there were partisans from all over Europe, but no official armed forces from Western Europe or North America.
It seems reasonable to assume that people like Ian Fleming were conducting secret negotiations with the Germans. Hitler hoped for peace with England and to keep the conquered territories. The British, on the other hand, would have liked to build a front against Russians and communism with Germany as a battering ram. What could have disrupted this balance was perhaps America's entry into the war, which shifted the balance of power.
So, Ian Fleming wasn't really a secret agent, but more a kind of secret diplomat.
