Sir Godfrey Tibbett is a fictional character from the James Bond film, A View to a Kill. He was played by British actor Patrick Macnee.
An expert on horses, he is asked by M to accompany Bond to a horse auction at Max Zorin's stables. In an ironic role reversal, Sir Godfrey plays a chauffeur to "James St. John Smythe", an aristocratic entrepreneur — Bond's codename.
On their first night at the chateaux, Tibbett and 007 sneak into Zorin's secret underground warehouse, hidden beneath the horse stables. Tibbett gets there first whilst looking for a concealed switch to activate an elevator disguised as one of the stalls. Bond comes up behind Tibbett and shows him the button to enter the sub-level laboratory where Dr. Carl Mortner, Max Zorin's "creator," tests his steroid experiments on Zorin's prized horse, Pegasus, in an attempt to enhance its and speed and stamina. Using a stethoscope, Bond opens a combination-locked cabinet containing Mortner's experimental chemicals while Sir Godfrey examines Pegasus's bandaged leg in which a microchip to trigger an injection of natural horse steroids that has been surgically implanted in the horse's leg.
When the pair realize that two of Zorin's Guards have detected their presence and have come to investigate, Bond and Tibbett then proceed to the actual microchip processing plant in the warehouse. They hide behind some crates as the thugs enter with their pistols ready and then 007 and Tibbett attack the guards, with Tibbett not inflicting much damage on one of them; the thug ignores Tibbett's blows and he is thrown against some crates. After disabling the thugs they exit warehouse and return to their quarters for the night.
The next morning when Tibbett is washing his Rolls-Royce, Bond orders Sir Godfrey to go into town and call to inform M of the pairs' discoveries. To remain undercover, Tibbett splashes dirty water on the car and tells Zorin's lover, May Day to open the front gates to get the car washed.
When he gets out of the Rolls to ask the gatekeeper to open up, May Day secretly gets into the rear seat of the car while Tibbett's back is turned and the gates open. Zorin has discovered Bond's real identity using a photo recognition system on his computer (having identified Bond as being responsible for the break-in after finding him missing from his bedroom), and has ordered Jenny Flex and Pan Ho to distract Tibbett at a gas station, giving May Day the opportunity to strangle him in the Rolls-Royce while it is being washed. Later, May Day drives the Rolls on a road along Zorin's chateau when 007 tries to escape in the car while being chased on horseback. Scarpine knocks Bond unconscious and May Day then disposes of the car by pushing it into a nearby lake. As it sinks to the bottom, Bond revives, exits the Rolls-Royce, and breathes air from the tires until the villains are gone.
