stepson

On her lapel was a pin with the face of Ali Dhawi, her stepson, a Hezbollah operative killed in an Israeli attack during the war.

The Bond films were launched by Albert "Cubby" Broccoli in 1962, before his daughter and stepson took over.

Ricotta claimed he had been trying to hide behind his wife as his stepson lunged at him with a knife, accidentally stabbing his mother in the process.

Remembering her stepson as "an amazing chap", Ms Dyche, who lives near Leominster, said: "He only had to walk into the house and it put a smile on my face."

She remarried last year, and her stepson and his wife had a baby in January.
