I kind of think of Craig's Bond as a barely-hinged sociopath at the best of time, but yeah, IDK. Bond has had a weird relationship with being Scottish at least since the Brosnan films (which kind of makes me wonder if Cossack Alec needling Scottish-Swiss Bond about "For England" all through Goldeneye was tongue in cheek. I'm going to have to rewatch). The weirdness may have been there in the books, too; I can't remember, and these days I wouldn't be able to read Fleming without wanting to set the books on fire.
IIRC, his parents died in a skiing accident, unless they're changing that (although they seem to be going so classic, I doubt they will).
Taking M out of the picture takes out Bond's most interesting relationship, IMO. Sigh.
