Sir Godfrey Tibbett is a fictional character from the James Bond film, A View to a Kill. He was played by British actor Patrick Macnee. An expert on horses, he is asked by M to accompany Bond to a horse auction Max Zorin’s stables. In an ironic role reversal Sir Godfrey plays a chauffeur to Bond’s James St. John Smythe, an aristocratic entrepreneur.
When Bond’s real identity is uncovered, Jenny Flex and Pan Ho distract him, giving May Day the opportunity to strangle him in his Rolls Royce while it’s being washed.
