According to the BBC, Never Say Never Again was one of two James Bond films that were not produced by Eon Productions, the regular producer, and were therefore not considered part of the official franchise.

It was produced by Warner Bros., and this became possible thanks to the fact that screenwriter Kevin McClory retained the rights to film the novel after a long legal battle.

“I was a theater woman: “Pamela was the kindest, most generous actress I ever worked with.” In 1980's Remembrance of the Daleks, my first real TV job, she took me under her wing and led me through a wonderful but slightly frightening experience. We became friends and whenever we met we were always so happy to see each other. She was so loved, so respected, and will be so missed,” said actress Karen Gledhill, who co-starred with Allison Williams in “Counter Measures.”
