    All main villains are from North America. Wiseman is from Canada, the rest from the USA. DN out. TLD only fits with Baker but not with Krabbe.

    Bravo! I saw you were on the right track earlier. It had to click sooner or later.

    Hooray! That was a tough one. I thought about Jamaica but never focused on other countries. This win is dedicated to @peter and @thedove with their brainstormings and of course to @Max_The_Parrot who is helpful and entertaining in all the threads I participate.
    I will start the next one soon.

    Congrats @goldenswissroyale, and well done everyone for hanging in there! 👍

    Nope. A bit less obvious.

    Great job @goldenswissroyale that was a great one. Hadn't thought of the nationality of the villains.

    A helicopter appears in all the films. But only in OP it is not involved in any action scenes of the movie.

    Helicopters are often a part of the action scenes. The five movies are chosen more specific.

    OHMSS, FYEO, OP, TWINE, SP

    All films but FYEO features female lead characters that are either criminal themselves or in family with a criminal (Tracy/Draco, Octopussy/Dexter Smythe, Elektra, Madeleine/Mr. White).

    Not what I was thinking but close to my answer! I didn't expect such a close guess that quick.

    OHMSS is the odd one out, since it is the daughter, not the father, who died.

    It is a very good answer and close to mine. But you don't have it yet.

    TWINE is the odd one out since it is the daughter who has her father killed?

    The answer is less violent.

    OP - in all the other films we see the Bond girl’s father alive, in OP he’s already dead.

    Sorry, another logic and good answer. But not what I have in mind.
    It has to do with the fathers but OP isn't the odd one out. OHMSS neither.

    FYEO - the only film where we see the mother as well?

    I'm afraid not. All variations of answers involving the fathers are probably tried now, except mine...

    Oh, knowing me I bet I can come up with another half dozen wrong ones 😂

    How about SP - the only death of a father that Bond witnesses first hand.

    Ok you found indeed another wrong one...
    SP isn't the odd one out.

    Argh, I changed my answer to SP as I thought that was more likely. Going back to my previous one, let’s see if I can come up with one more wrong answer and then I’m out of ideas ...

    TWINE - it’s the only one where Bond attends the funeral of a Bond girl’s father?

    Sorry, it seems my round isn't as genious as I thought...
    BUT: Bond is part of the answer!
    I'm confident that we have a new winner this evening.

    FYEO is the odd one out as Bond never met Melina s father?

    And it goes back to you:
    FYEO is the odd one out as Bond never met Melina s father?

    Bond meets all the other fathers of a bondgirl, although the meeting with Smythe was before the story of OP starts.

    DN, OHMSS,TSWLM, OP ,CR, QOS, SP

    These have something in common. Which is the odd one out and why?

    Clue: I was wondering whether to put FRWL on the list.

    Bumping this by telling you FRWL does have something similar common with the films on the list, but I decided on a different approach, and with these criteria it doesn t make it.

    Maybe I can with a more specific hint?

    You need no background info for this. It is even easier than the last.
