For the part of antiques salesman Dr. Gruber, author Michael Bond originally wished for a foreign actor, since the character was based on Bond's first agent, a German Jew, who, according to Bond, was "in line to be the youngest judge in Germany, when he was warned his name was on a list, so he got out and came to England with just a suitcase and £25 to his name". In the book, Gruber is identified as being from Hungary. However, Bond appreciates the casting of Jim Broadbent.
