    Just popping in to say I think #5-8 are spot on in exact order. Wright is my favorite, then Lord and Hedison are about interchangeable at 2 and 3, but Hedison probably wins for getting more content to work with. Then Casey, but I need to watch NSNA again sometime.

    @timdalton007. It appears that you both added 3 points for Hedison and subtracted 3 points for Casey in your Sunday vote.

    I have the corrected scores (thru @Birdleson) as::

    David Hedison (LALD & LTK) - 13
    Bernie Casey (NSNA) - 23

    Eliminated

    My bad! Only thing I can think of is that @j_w_pepper's vote before mine didn't load for whatever reason. Ah, the joys of modern technology!

    So let's try this again:

    Fleming's Felix Leiter = Van Nutter's look, Casey's personality, the Hedison version's relationship with Bond

    While I don't rank NSNA, it is nice to see "it" win at-least one of these games.

    FYI: The New York Times obit for Bernie Casey (1939 - 2017).

    NSNA winning for once is certainly entertaining to see on its own, but I'm real happy that Casey ended up the winner.

    Bernie Casey has been my favourite Felix for quite some time now, happy to see him win!

    I do like Bernie Casey also, though I don't know that I'd rank him at #1- then again, he does seem to be the most well-rounded. Other contenders for the top spot like Jack Lord seem to be missing the charm factor, and, oddly, David Hedison at times seemed a little campy in Licence to Kill.

    FYI: A nice tweet posted today on "Old Time Football" about Bernie Casey. I've seen this clip before, but it is still really good. For those that aren't US football fans, he is being interviewed by NFL films (about an interview that he gave during his playing days). A really smart guy - I wish I could find the full length version.
