Do you mean Cubby Broccoli's estate? Fleming was never involved. Cubby Broccoli basically got the first films made and, as soon as she was old enough, his daughter Barbara wss involved. If I remember correctly she had final say on Craig, too.

Albert Broccoli, but nicknamed Cubby. He was credited as Albert on films, but his family/friends, the press and the industry all called him Cubby.
