CHELTENHAM. I'LL GET THE MONEY!

Does a terrorist banker really say that line in "Casino Royale"?

And if so, what are its implications?

During the scene in which Le Chiffre is torturing Bond by bashing Bond's balls with a knotted rope a man with a gun enters the room after shooting several people out of view. Le Chiffre, aware of who the man is, appears to say the following line very nervously (as you would with a gun pointing at you);

"I'll get the money. Cheltenham, I'll get the money."

But too late. "Cheltenham" shoots Le Chiffre.

Who is "Cheltenham"? Or should that be, "who controls Cheltenham"?

To me, being the conspiraloon I am, Cheltenham = GCHQ = British Intelligence

I mean, how many people have the christian name "Cheltenham"? Why not use the name "Jeff", or "Bob", or "Dave"?

Art is art is art. I was taught at school very little of an artist's work is left to randomness. Most of a painting, a poem, a novel, is designed to enhance and promote the theme of the work.

Casino Royale sounded interesting to me after I read that there was a reference to the put options of 9/11 from which someone made a fortune betting that certain airline stocks would drop like a lead fish (and as I understand that fortune is still unclaimed). To those who suspect Hollywood is 100% controlled this reference to the 9/11 put options was a very bold and risky gamble to take in order to look "clever".

But perhaps there is more to Casino Royale.

Yes, there's the implantable microchip, which is carved out of Bond's arm while he is unconcious.

But perhaps I misheard the name "Cheltenham".

I've replayed the scene again and again, and to me it sounds like Le Chiffre says "Cheltenham".

If this really is the case, is Casino Royale hinting to us that British Intelligence is controlling terror?

The character named Cheltenham to whom I refer is called "Mr White" played by Jesper Christensen.
