Nickname of Max Denbigh (Andrew Scott), the head of Britain’s new Joint Intelligence Service, formed by the recent merger of MI5 and MI6 in Spectre.

A bureaucratic little snot who has moved England’s intelligence networks into a high-tech London complex bankrolled by money from the private sector, C is pushing for Britain to join a global surveillance and intelligence initiative dubbed “Nine Eyes,” which would combine the intelligence streams of nine countries—and he is determined to close down the double-0 field agent program. M (Ralph Fiennes) and Bond (Daniel Craig) loathe this know-it-all, but they’re unaware that he has been compromised by Blofeld (Christoph Waltz) and SPECTRE.
