The new Q in Skyfall
Real life is, alas, still grinding me down. However, in the mean time, check this out.
Here is Stephen Hawking as a young man, aged 23 (two years after his diagnosis):

This is Q from Skyfall played by Ben Whishaw:

And:

Was this intentional?
And, pretty much regardless, cool!
And is this inspiring fics for anyone else? Because I kind of want to make Q have to deal with having a degenerative condition, too smart and knowing too many secrets to be allowed to leave MI6, but not in good enough condition to pass any of the qualifying exams. The new M would have to figure out what needs to be done to compensate for having such a vital person have such an obvious weakness. And Bond would have to figure out how to interact with someone who has already lived passed his death date and could die at any time just from natural causes that have nothing to do with him.
Also, I wouldn't be against seeing a bio pic of Hawking, starting Whishaw.
