On Her Majesty's Secret Service (novel) Bond film, "Dr. No" was being filmed nearby. The first draft of the novel was 196 pages long and called "The Belles of Hell". Fleming later changed the title after being told of a nineteenth-century sailing novel called "On Her Majesty's Secret Service", seen by Fleming's friend Nicholas Henderson in Portobello Road Market.

In the 1930s, Fleming often visited Kitzbühel in Austria to ski; he once deliberately set off down a slope that had been closed because of the danger of an avalanche.
