    Those last clues sound like Colthorpe, although not sure about some of the other clues ...

    Damn, Colthorpe seems to be the right answer. Except Chew Mee isn't the edible part...

    Of course, Chew Mee and Pepper, my mind is clearly under the influence of Christmas at the mo, it all makes sense now! nice one @CommanderRoss 👍

    I’m not going to be around tomorrow so I’ll have to sort something out for the weekend. I’m guessing things go a little quiet over the Xmas period and I might not be able to post every day but I’ll do my best to keep things moving.

    Guess the EON character

    1. A fitting choice for several reasons
    2. I’m doing considerably better than Bond at the one thing Bond is trying to do considerably well
    3. Things should be hotting up
    4. Looks like I’m in the wrong place
    5. Q may have studied my methods for one his inventions
    6. Regarding Bond, I actually manage to achieve what most villains fail to
    7. Bond tried to do this in another film - he did it out of necessity, I do it by choice

    If it’s still going in a few days, then I’ll do my best to keep it moving in a timely fashion but obviously with Xmas etc there may be an odd day I don’t turn up, hope that’s ok.

    Thanks for getting things started guys - I’m afraid it’s neither of those

    Taking out the obvious, perhaps... Christmas Jones?

    Nomi (NTTD)?

    I’m probably wrong, but it’s a good time to bring up NTTD characters. Newer members, like @Max_The_Parrot , have no way of knowing this, but with SP we agreed by consensus that we wouldn’t play those new characters until the film had been out for a month (or was it two weeks, or two months?), so everyone had gotten a chance to see it a few times. I can assume we all want to do the same this time?

    I'd prefer that indeed. It's already difficult enough with the films we do have, let alone characters you haven't had the chance to see yet.

    My guess:

    Count Lippe?

    I can't remember what timeframe we imposed, but one month from first release seems reasonable.

    It’s not Nomi, but it’s good that you’ve brought up the issue. I’m the sort of person who’s terrible at names and faces, so even if I saw it at the cinema a couple of times I’d be little use at either setting or guessing characters from NTTD - I’d have to wait until it’s out on home release and I get the chance to watch it several more times.

    However I appreciate others would probably be keen to use them sooner so I’m happy to go with whatever you decide is appropriate - although if someone wants to drop little hints in the first few months that it sounds like a NTTD character that would free up my time considerably! 😂

    The upside to all this is that for the next 12 months if it’s me setting a character you can be confident it’s not NTTD! 👍

    No correct guesses yet (I will pick Christmas Jones one time if someone pays me) - new clues added.

    Elektra is a clever guess, but not right. I’ve added new clues.

    The Polar Bear Costume Guy (OHMSS)? Very confident.

    Smart, very smart. I mentioned the Bear costume on the odd one out thread, recently, but it never came to my mind for this round.

    Well done @Birdleson it is the Polar Bear Photographer (OHMSS) - I thought it only right we have a Xmas-themed character to celebrate the time of year, but of course with everyone watching OHMSS the bear was always skating on thin ice (see what I did there?) 😝🎄

    1. A fitting choice for several reasons
    OHMSS for Guess the Character over Xmas, a polar bear for a Xmas tourist attraction and fitting also refers to the costume

    2. I’m doing considerably better than Bond at the one thing Bond is trying to do considerably well
    Bond tries to hide from Irma and crew at the skating rink - they don’t think to check who’s inside the costume

    3. Things should be hotting up ... Inside the costume

    4. Looks like I’m in the wrong place ... Polar bear in Switzerland

    5. Q may have studied my methods for one his inventions
    Aston Martin Vanish - the polar bear is well camouflaged - his costume is very hard to spot in some scenes

    6. Regarding Bond, I actually manage to achieve what most villains fail to ...scare Bond

    7. Bond tried to do this in another film - he did it out of necessity, I do it by choice
    Dressing up in an animal costume - the gorilla from OP

    8. I seem to be a chronological conundrum - it could be movie magic, or simple maths
    the bearappears in different parts of the ice rink in close succession. It could be the result of editing, or more likely there could be several bears working at once - although I’ve yet to spot more than one in the same shot!

    9. If Bond had what I’ve got, his immediate problem would be solved ... a costume to hide his identity

    PS sorry for the late reply, I was having a digital detox for a couple of days! Hope you all had a great Xmas! 👍

    Excellent round, well solved. I was nowhere near!

    Strutter?
    I don't think that this is a favourite character but the first two clues would be fitting.

    Could also be Tracy, but again probably too obvious.
