The future James Bond’s childhood wasn’t easy. His father left the family right after Pierce was born. And when he turned 4, his mother left him with his grandparents, so she could move to London to study to be a nurse. Soon his grandparents died, and Brosnan was sent to live with a woman named Eileen who had a place in a poor part of town.

This woman had her own children, so Pierce was moved upstairs, where other lodgers lived. They were all grown-up men, “One worked in the mill. One worked in a bank. The three lodgers stayed in a long room with iron beds with old mattresses. At the end of the room, there was my little bed, with a curtain around it, so the light wouldn’t shine in when the older guys came home.” This nightmare ended after a few years when Pierce was 11 and could join his mother and her new family.
