    OK, here we go. A named and speaking EON character for you:

    1. My boss was impressed. Bond was not.

    2. Just because I'm dead doesn't mean I can't be useful.

    I think I know who you mean. But it ain't him.

    The helicopter pilot in the FYEO pre-titles?
    edit: Just caught your note that it's a named character, hmm well I'll try another guess after some thought.

    Two more clues for this named, speaking EON character:

    1. My boss was impressed. Bond was not.

    2. Just because I'm dead doesn't mean I can't be useful.

    3. For such a minor character, it's perhaps surprising that my name is spoken onscreen.

    4. My happiness doesn't last long at all, due to an immediate reversal of fortune.


    Incorrect:

    Stealth ship henchman (TND)
    Helicopter pilot (FYEO)
  • I'm going to guess Zukovsky's henchman "Bullion" in TWINE? Though it's been ages since I've seen it. :)

    It's not Bullion.

    More on #4 plus two new clues:

    1. My boss was impressed. Bond was not.

    2. Just because I'm dead doesn't mean I can't be useful.

    3. For such a minor character, it's perhaps surprising that my name is spoken onscreen.

    4. My happiness doesn't last long at all, due to an immediate reversal of fortune. Some people's deaths are avenged more quickly than others.

    5. One colour from head to toe.

    6. I suffer an almost identical death to an early Bond villain.


    Incorrect:

    Mr. Bullion
    Mr. Kil
    Stealth ship henchman (TND)
    Helicopter pilot (FYEO)

    Let's see if these two clues will do the trick:

    1. My boss was impressed. Bond was not.

    2. Just because I'm dead doesn't mean I can't be useful.

    3. For such a minor character, it's perhaps surprising that my name is spoken onscreen.

    4. My happiness doesn't last long at all, due to an immediate reversal of fortune. Some people's deaths are avenged more quickly than others.

    5. One colour from head to toe.

    6. I suffer an almost identical death to an early Bond villain.

    7. It's doubtful that my body was ever recovered.

    8. I just can't take a compliment.


    Incorrect:

    Strawberry Fields
    McGregor (FYEO)
    Mr. Bullion
    Mr. Kil
    Stealth ship henchman (TND)
    Helicopter pilot (FYEO)

    Ooh. Clive.

    Ooh, @RichardTheBruce !

    Yes indeed it's LTK's Clive, who receives the compliment "Nice work Clive, take him out and sink him" from Milton Krest... only to receive very different "compliments of Sharkey" from Bond a few seconds later. Bond then dives into the water and uses Clive's breathing apparatus as part of his rather spectacular escape.

    Clues are fairly self-explanatory, I think. Nice work, look forward to seeing what you can come up with next.

    Nice one, @Tokoloshe2. A truly grand Bond scene that plays out and pays off.

    I'll pick this up tomorrow with the next character.

    Eon film.

    1. Bond seems to come across me by accident.

    5. I don't have a character name.

    Irma Bunt?

    1. Bond seems to come across me by accident. Because Bond was trying to visit Ruby’s room for some fun.
    2. It turns out I'm not his interest. See 1
    3. I appear with Bond when he's vulnerable. She and Blofeld made an appearance after Bond’s wedding
    4. But nothing bad happens to him. Because Tracy was the one who got shot.
