Modern audiences are asked to believe that the character has been the same age for more than 50 years, and the series has bent or tinkered with its conventions ever so slightly as the decades have rolled past in order to stay relevant. One of the most obvious characteristics of the Bond series is that each instalment of the franchise can sit on its own.
