    Got it!

    BOND-Watermarked-Gallery-2-640x441.jpg

    1. Got the job done "With a Little Help From My Enemies". = Shakes Bond in Turkey with the help of Moneypenny.
    2. I didn't even have "A Ticket To Ride". = In reference to fighting Bond on the train in Turkey.
    3. Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. = In their first encounter (yesterday), his "troubles" (being Bond) was shot by Moneypenny and fell of the bridge into the river (far away); in their second encounter (now), Bond returns and kills Patrice.
    4. It took a very large amount of resources to take me down. = Ultimately it took five MI6 agents and the cooperation of two international secret services (MI6, CIA).
    5. Basically the opposite of Casper. = Patrice is a "ghost, with no known residence or country of origin" (and he's not very friendly). Casper is known as the "friendly ghost".
    6. Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. = Planes: Bond and Patrice fly to Shanghai, and their both seen at the airport. Trains: Turkey. Automobiles: Both Bond and Patrice are seen on motorcycles (Turkey), and in cars (Shanghai).
    7. My known kill count is 9. = Ronson, two other MI6 Agents in the safehouse, three Turkish police officers on motorcycles, the Yemeni Ambassador, the security guard in the skyscraper in Shanghai, and the man buying the Modigliani. He's certainly killed more, but these are the kills confirmed in the film.

    Over to you, @R1s1ngs0n!

    PS. All the Beatles stuff in the beginning was a complete red herring. You're welcome!

    Great round @NickTwentyTwo
    Never thought I’d guess a character from a Craig movie as I saw each of them only once. I admit I had to get a bit of help from YouTube 😅

    Here goes then:
    1. Unlike my partner, my fate remains unknown.
    2. I take orders from more than one person.

    A minor point re Patrice in the last round, there are two visible victims in the Shanghai skyscraper - you see him the kill the front desk man, and there's another one lying dead on the floor upstairs at about 3:25 here:

    Damn! I was really worried I missed one... watched the scenes but obviously missed this second guard... sorry about that!

    So obviously it's not Patrice! I'm afraid we have to go back.

    Well @CommanderRoss did say it HAD to be Baron Samedi... Maybe he was correct after all?

    After all, we don't play the game... The game plays us.

    Now you guys are playing me. As I understand the bealtles turned into herrings, which makes for an interesting series on animal planet, but @R1s1ngs0n already started another round, let's go for that one.

    For sure, I was just kidding. I'll make a guess at his round once I've had a moment to think about it.

    The guy they tie up in the basket elevator room in St. Cyril's, in FYEO?

    3. Although I don’t speak, I am properly introduced by name.
    4. Being offered a drink doesn’t seem to be a problem for me.

    Incorrect guesses:
    Chris (killed astronaut in YOLT PTS)
    Jaws
    Karageorge
    Kristatos’ goon in basket elevator room

    The YOLT astronaut who gets killed in the PTS?
    EDIT: @R1s1ngs0n is right; I first wanted to guess his colleague, but upon rewatching it seemed his colleague was speaking, so I switched, forgetting about the unknown fate.

    It’s true that his body is never recovered but the fact that he’s dead, by definition means that his fate is known... and he’s heard speaking.

    New clue added.

    Janni?

    Bingo!

    1. Unlike my partner, my fate remains unknown.
    Did he take part in the final underwater showdown or maybe he decided it was much less stressful to have a few more drinks back at Palmyra? No one really knows.

    2. I take orders from more than one person.
    From Emilio Largo and Fiona Volpe.

    3. Although I don’t speak, I am properly introduced by name
    Not once, but twice "Mr. Janni, Mr Vargas. Mr. Vargas, Mr. Janni"

    4. Being offered a drink doesn’t seem to be a problem for me.
    Vargas does not drink, does not smoke, does not make love. So Janni will have that drink.

    Over to you @Birdleson

    Does the character have to have the same name? As in Fatima Blush is, after all, the NSNA version of Fiona Volpe. (that, then, is my guess immediately).

    Nice guess! I also feel on a meta level @Birdleson is doing a run of the franchise' most important characters (Bond, Vesper... Blofeld?), but of course I could be wrong.

    Ha! Great, I didn't expect to get that.

    Okay, I'll try something different too. Just the one clue to start with as well as I reckon you're a clever lot. Eon movie character.

    1. The first letters of each word in perhaps my most memorable line of dialogue are:
    'T I V T P K'

    Great clue. This has taken over my brain.

    What's the dialogue?

    EDIT: Then I visit the Pale King? Nice guess.
