Paul McCartney and Wings voted best ever Bond song

Paul McCartney and Wings' 'Live and Let Die' from the movie of the same name was voted greatest ever Bond theme, with Dame Shirley Bassey taking the next two slots with 'Goldfinger' and 'Diamonds are Forever'.

Jaws has been voted the greatest ever James Bond character.

The villain-turned-good guy, who was portrayed in 'The Spy Who Loved Me' and 'Moonraker' by Richard Keil, topped the survey of 4,900 film fans.

Jaws beat Q, the Head of Research and Development for British Intelligence - originally played by Desmond Llewellyn and in later films by John Cleese - into second place.

Gennaro Castaldo, a spokesperson for music and DVD retailer HMV who compiled the poll with getcloser.com, said: "We all have our favourite Bond characters, but you can see why so many of us go for Jaws. Aside from his incredible physical presence, he's got a great name and gimmick, and his stainless steel teeth are so wonderfully villainous.

"Ultimately, however, I think we like him because in the end he turns good guy."

Third in the poll - which excluded James Bond himself - was Harold Sakata's Odd Job, the baddie from 'Goldfinger', followed by secret service chief M, who has been played by both Bernard Lee and Dame Judi Dench.

Making up the top five was Miss Moneypenny, M's personal assistant who was played by Lois Maxwell in 14 movies, Caroline Bliss in two of the spy adventures and Samantha Bond in four.

Fans were also asked to vote for their favourite ever James Bond, with Sean Connery's portrayal of the British spy taking almost half of the vote, followed by current incarnation Daniel Craig and his predecessor Pierce Brosnan in second and third place respectively.
