Dubbed ‘Churchill’s favourite spy’, beautiful and sexually adventurous Krystyna Skarbek became celebrated for her daring WWII exploits throughout Nazi-occupied Europe.
She is said to have inspired both the James Bond characters Tatiana Romanova in From Russia with love and Vesper Lynd in two different versions of Casino Royale – played by Ursula Andress and Eva Green.
Now a film about Krystyna’s extraordinary life – and death – is being filmed which will bring her wartime exploits to a wider audience for the first time.
