A couple of points - firstly, isn't it Q Branch rather than Section?

Also, Desmond L. used to leave clues to Q's background by wearing specific ties in the films. For example, one is a Radley College tie (a public school in Oxford), and another denotes Q as a member of an amateur firemen club!

Yes, perhaps I should have pointed out that I know this because of an interview that he gave promoting The World Is Not Enough. I am, in actual fact, not a tiespotter.
