An insider at the time said: “Daisy is a close pal of [No Time To Die script doctor] Phoebe [Waller-Bridge], whose involvement in Bond was such a success that it sparked an unlikely conversation.

Cooper told NME: “I think it was on the radio… they were discussing who they want to be the next M and then somebody mentioned my name and from then it just went like fucking wildfires. I had the Daily Mail knocking at my parents’ door at night…
Nevertheless, she added with a chuckle: “Yeah, give me a f***ing part… move over Dench!”
