    Which is the Odd One Out?

    GF, OP, AVTAK

    No heavy thinking required, it’s a ‘Christmas cracker’ style puzzle.

    AVTAK is the odd one out as in GF Pussy has her flying girls, and OP obviously has her island full of women.

    Inspired by the first answer I would state more precisely that AVTAK is ooo because the others feature circus' owned by Bondgirls with Pussy in their names.
    If this sould be it, @CommanderRoss deserves the win.

    @CommanderRoss @goldenswissroyale you’re both definitely on the right lines with the key already mentioned, but think more like a teenager ... what would they find funny ... they’ve all got something in common - which then leads to the odd one out ...

    Three times Pussy but in AVTAK it is the name of Stacey's cat?

    That’s it, three Pussy’s, two are Bond girls, the other belongs to a Bond girl. Well done both! 👍

    Nice one.
    We see three times the same, but one is still the odd one out in more than one way:
    OHMSS, TWINE, SF

    I will go for the obvious. In all three we see the death of a female protagonist

    OHMSS Tracy Bond's wife
    TWINE Electra Villain of the movie
    SF M Bond's boss

    The female death that is odd one out is TWINE as Electra is the only female casualty who is also the villain.

    Thanks for starting. It isn't that obvious.
    Christmas time. Noone dies here.

    Sf is the O3 as Christmas celebrations are in both ohmss and in twine, whilst Sf premiered on TV over Christmas in the UK?

    Great try. Very smart, but not what I had in mind. Although, you made already one step in the right direction.

    If Christmas is the clue, I’m tempted to say all 3 films mention Christmas (SF has the ‘not exactly Christmas’ line with Q), but SF is the OOO as it doesn’t feature a scene set at Christmas.

    Christmas isn't clue, sorry.

    TWINE and SF both feature action in Britain and more specifically London. OHMSS had a London action sequence cut out of it. Therefore OHMSS is the odd one out.

    Another good and interesting try. It isn't about action scenes.

    Fireworks? OOO is SF - he is on his own there, whereas he is with his ‘Bond girl’ in the other two.

    Very close, I thought about this answer but decided to choose another as ooo.

    Slight tweak could be SF as OOO as the fireworks aren’t associated with Christmas - the other two are.

    Try another movie as ooo...two reasons why I took another one

    Same could be said for another of the three films...

    You are almost there.

    That's it @Birdleson
    Three times fireworks, but only in OHMSS Bond can't enjoy it. Or another possible answer: no tuxedo/bow tie during this scene.

    Thanks. That was tough.


    Okay:
    OP, DAD, SP
    These three share a common occurrence. There are two equally valid ways to claim the Odd One Out (different results), whichever one someone comes up with first is the accepted winner.

    Each villain is defeated while in/near an aircraft. In OP and DAD the villains die with the vehicles, but in SP Blofeld survives after Bond shoots down the helicopter, therefore SP is the odd one out.

    Bond slips into another role in the OP and DAD PTS. SP is the ooo because he wears a mask but doesn't try to be another character.

    Ah, sorry, didn't see the update.

    Both in OP as in SP the titles are names given to organisations/persons, DAD is the O3 as the title is spoken to the villain.

    In both OP and DAD a communist government is involved in the villains plot. In SP the evil organization wants to take over all governments? Therefore SP is odd one out.

    They all make reference to 009 - OP is the OOO as that’s the only one where Bond is ordered to take over his case (or the only one where 009 is killed)?

    Wild guess. In DAD Graves says something to the effect that she was right under your nose the whole time. (referring to Frost) SP Blofeld says that Bond didn't see him and that he was in plain sight. No such dialogue is exchanged in OP, therefore OP is odd one out.
