====== Valentin Dmitrovich Zukovsky - Robbie Coltrane ====== [[http://imdb.com/name/nm0001059/|IMDb Biography]] **__Films__**: [[films:goldeneye|GoldenEye]] and [[films:the-world-is-not-enough|The World Is Not Enough]] {{ films:characters:robbie-coltrane.jpg|Robbie Coltrane}} > **Zukovsky**: Walther PPK, 7.65 millimeter. Only three men I know of use such a gun. I believe I've killed two of them. Zukovsky has a past with James Bond, being an enemy figure of his once before. Bond gave him the limp that he now has, which is especially bad in the winter. He meets James Bond, recognizing who he is merely by his type of hand gun. He is then irritated to see him, but eventually helps to set up a meeting with Janus for Bond. > **Zukovsky**: So Mr. Bond, what brings you to my neighborhood? Still working for MI6, or have you decided to join the 21st century? I hear the new M is a lady. In [[films:the-world-is-not-enough|The World is not Enough]], he is much more cheerful. Now, as a legitimate businessman who owns his own casino and runs a caviar company, he still is able to help Bond in his investigation of [[films:characters:elektra-king|Elektra King]] and [[films:characters:renard|Renard]]. He then learns how [[films:characters:elektra-king|Elektra]] is working against him and when he shows up at the end of the film, she shoots him. He manages to get off one shot to allow Bond to escape. > **Zukovsky**: James Bond. Charming, sophisticated secret agent. Shaken, but not stirred. > **Zukovsky**: He wants to ask me a favor. My knee aches every single day; twice as bad when it is cold. Do you have any idea how long the winter lasts in this country? Tell him, Dmitri...Silence! > **Zukovsky**: Bond! James Bond! > **Zukovsky**: Free market economy, I swear it will be the end of me. > **Zukovsky**: Who are you; and how did you get in? I must call security, and congratulate them!
