In Diamonds Are Forever, Bond delivers this juvenile insult to Tiffany Case after her ill-timed tape switch derails Bond’s sabotage of Blofeld’s control codes cassette tape aboard Blofeld’s oil rig. I particularly enjoy Bond’s quick delivery of this line and its unique moniker as the only time James Bond labels a woman a twit. Aside from this scene, this particular insult always reminds me of the flaky Mary Goodnight and her antics in The Man With The Golden Gun.
Regardless, I commend Bond for using such an silly insult at such a critical time in the movie. I wonder if the line was ad-libbed?
