The James Bond character prize raised the most. It was donated by author Anthony Horowitz OBE, and the winning name will appear in his forthcoming James Bond novel expected to be released in September 2015.

Indeed, unexpectedly, the author congratulated two winners, agreeing to immortalise both guests in print for a significant donation to London’s Air Ambulance.
