Octopussy Girl in OCTOPUSSY 1983

I have met the gorgeous Helene Hunt (one of Octopussy's girls in Octopussy (1983)) several times over the years, assisting her at celebrity shows in the UK.

Miss Hunt has not forgotten her memories as a Bond girl. She is a very nice person with a wonderful sense of humour.

The former Bond girl is currently working a corporate and broadcast presenter and live events host.

If you are looking for an intelligent, attractive, vivacious, amusing and highly professional corporate and broadcast presenter with an unusual combination of talents, then look no further. Helene Hunt is that needle in the proverbial haystack!

The BBC trained reporter is no stranger to the mediums of television, radio and audience based 'live' work.

Originally from an acting background, she learnt her craft at the BBC working on Woman's Hour on Radio 4. Scripting, presenting and producing sports packages for Radio 5 she eventually graduated to Outside Broadcasts for an afternoon cable channel, work on the telethon and presenting for Sky Sports.

Out in the corporate world, as well as videos and voice-overs, Helene works very effectively under pressure on 'Live' events and is admired for her professionalism and enthusiastic support for all projects she is involved with. From product launches to conference hosting, interviewing to award evenings, with a great deal of experience under her belt, she can always meet the requirements of the corporate brief ensuring that the right message is given the right feel.

As for the unusual combination of talents, she is a fully qualified personal trainer and spent two years on her own boat Scallop diving for a living up on Scotland's West Coast!

She lists 100cc karting, horse riding, snow skiing, sailing and rollerblading as some of her favourite hobbies and anything to do with animals is close to her heart.

Helene is a very popular corporate presenter with clients including:
Vauxhall, P & O Events, Royal Mail, BBC Select, Sanyo, Konica, Pedigree, Ellesse, IBM, Toyota, Freight Transport Association, Toshiba, The British Hospitality Association and Prudential.
