Would you trade your husband for James Bond?

If you said yes, you’re in agreement with the 40% of British women who would trade their husband or boyfriend according to new research* by entertainment and online gaming site, PartyCasino.

The analysis found that, perhaps surprisingly, nearly twice as many women would make the swap than the number of men who would be prepared to ditch their partners for a Bond girl of their choice, with only 26% reporting that they would choose to change.

Of the women who said yes to ‘would you trade your husband for James Bond?’, nearly two thirds (64%) said they would do so in return for Daniel Craig’s version of James Bond.

Younger women are more likely to trade for a Bond, with a whopping 88% of those aged 18-24 willing to swap, while those aged 55-64 are least likely to leave their partners.

Meanwhile, ladies from East Anglia are keenest on Craig’s Bond, with 86% choosing the outgoing actor. Women from the East Midlands prefer Pierce Brosnan while most Londoners (63%) chose Timothy Dalton.

When it comes to the men, the Bond girls most likely to persuade them to leave their partner were Die Another Day’s Halle Berry and Live and Let Die’s Jane Seymore, who played the mysterious Solitaire in the 1973 film. The two women shared the spoils, each securing just over a quarter of the votes (26%).

Gemma Arterton, who played Strawberry Fields in Quantum of Solace was the third-favourite overall among UK men, with 23% choosing the character. Many more favourite Bond girls made the list, which can be seen in full here.
