    5) Bond also experienced a tragic event around the same time.
    6) It appears that my successor will carry on my legacy.
    7) Was she afraid of history repeating itself?
    8) We were blissfully ignorant, until we weren't.
    9) Bond sees what no one else could see.
    10) It's nice to be missed.

    11) In and out : once for me and once for Bond.
    12) It was something stupid that did me in.
    13) There's a much smaller amount of possible candidates for me.
    14) Dress for the cold.
    15) The writing's not on the wall, but something else is.
    16) Bond was certain that I would approve.

    No one has it yet. Also, I gave clue # 13 a slight tweaking.

    1) At first, I played the waiting game. Or did I?
    2) Location is essential, but there seems to be some confusion on the matter.
    3) Names is for tombstones baby! (Both the first and the last.)
    4) It certainly took them long enough.
    5) Bond also experienced a tragic event around the same time.
    6) It appears that my successor will carry on my legacy.
    7) Was she afraid of history repeating itself?
    8) We were blissfully ignorant, until we weren't.
    9) Bond sees what no one else could see.
    10) It's nice to be missed.

    11) In and out : once for me and once for Bond.
    12) It was something stupid that did me in.
    13) There are far fewer possible candidates for me, when compared to Bond.
    14) Dress for the cold.
    15) The writing's not on the wall, but something else is.
    16) Bond was certain that I would approve.

    Off the wall guess: The late Bill Fairbanks, mentioned in TMWTGG.
  • pachazopachazo Make Your Choice
    Posts: 7,314
    Ladies and Gentleman, we have a winner!
    The correct answer is Bill Fairbanks, aka 002, from TMWTGG!
    These were not easy clues and @Tokoloshe deserves your congratulations.

    1) At first, I played the waiting game. Or did I?
    Is this the same 002 that we saw in Thunderball, waiting for Bond to arrive at the meeting?

    2) Location is essential, but there seems to be some confusion on the matter.
    When Bond mentions Fairbanks, Monepenny thought he was referring to the city in Alaska.

    3) Names is for tombstones baby! (Both the first and the last.)
    A deceased character, with a first and last name.

    4) It certainly took them long enough.

    It took them five years to confirm that Fairbanks was killed by Scaramanga.

    5) Bond also experienced a tragic event around the same time.

    Fairbanks was assassinated in 1969. Bond lost his wife that same year.

    6) It appears that my successor will carry on my legacy.
    In TLD, 002 gets shot in the PTS! Granted, not by real bullets, but he is well on his way to following in Bill's footsteps!

    7) Was she afraid of history repeating itself?
    Saida must have been afraid that another romantic interest (Bond) would be killed right in front of her.

    8) We were blissfully ignorant, until we weren't.
    Bill and Saida never saw it coming.

    9) Bond sees what no one else could see.

    The golden bullet, which the police could never find, finally connected Scaramanga to the murder.

    10) It's nice to be missed.
    Moneypenny says that she misses him.

    11) In and out : once for me and once for Bond.

    The golden bullet went through Bill's neck (in and out rather quickly). For Bond, it was a somewhat longer process, going through his digestive system.

    12) It was something stupid that did me in.

    The golden bullet was a dumdum bullet, aka an expanding bullet.

    13) There are far fewer possible candidates for me, when compared to Bond.

    M told Bond that there was an endless list of people that wanted to kill him. Jealous husbands, outraged chefs, humiliated tailors! Bill's list is probably not as long.

    14) Dress for the cold.
    Fairbanks, Alaska.

    15) The writing's not on the wall, but something else is.
    Saida took the bullet out of the wall before the police arrived.

    16) Bond was certain that I would approve.
    Bond thinks that Bill would have loved the fact that Saida never dances without the golden bullet.

    I had some other clues, but nothing too impressive. It was a bit of a challenge coming up with clues for a character that doesn't even appear in the film. Not that it wasn't fun.

    Hey, it's just like old times. I pass it over to you, Tokoloshe. I'm glad you won and look forward to what you come up with next.

    Hooray, it's been a while since I solved one.
    That was a really interesting choice of character - good round, pachazo!

    Alas, I am very busy all weekend so have a couple of days to rest your little grey cells and I shall hopefully come up with something good on Monday.

    We are an unnamed group from an EON film.

    1. We are exceptionally polite, and thus the opposite of the first of our kind to appear in a Bond film.

    2. Whenever we want something, we always get it in the end.
