    Good spot.

    There's literally no info on this guy. He's a ghost.

    Great list @w2bond. If you wish to make a more comprehensive list including their roles, I would recommend putting the long list in spoiler tags so it takes up less room. That way we can view it, then compact it when scrolling down to newer posts.

    There's one actor I've wondered about many times - I couldn't find out his name, but he is sitting down in the control centre aboard the Liparus; he can be seen staring at Bond while next to him inside the ski jump (FYEO); and as a soldier, enters the train tunnel when Bond hides under the carriage (OP). He looks a bit like Jeremy Bulloch.

    Thanks @QBranch . I can't take credit for the list though, people like you made it possible

    You Don't Know My Name

    Who the devil is this guy? It's been racking my brain for years.

    He looks a lot like Jeremy Bulloch and appears in the same films: TSWLM/FYEO/OP.

    Liparus control room staff, a skier in Cortina and a soldier in Karl-Marx-Stadt. Possibly featured in other Moore films. No info online - he's a ghost.

    Liparus control room staff (with Lenny Rabin on the left):

    54162777143_dfc9c72434_o.png
    "No, I'm not on social media - I'm working! And you're not my boss!"

    Skier in Cortina's 'Trampolino Italia' ski jump elevator (Lenny Rabin on the right):

    54161627557_a01eda6a64_o.png
    "Hang on, is this the asshole who lost me my job?"

    Soldier in the train tunnel at Karl-Marx-Stadt (Lenny Rabin absent):

    54162777123_bf96f07763_o.png
    "Who am I? I am in the dark as much as you are."

    Is this the same guy?
    Appearing as a tycoon on Zorin’s airship.
    If so I believe he’s Peter Ensor.

    Project Name Strike. That's where you strikethrough the name of the actor after identifying them.

    Peter Ensor unconfirmed but taken into account.

    A couple of other entries to add to the list.

    Gertan Klauber - Played Bubi in OP and The Prater Cafe owner in TLD.

    Tina Simmons - German woman at circus in OP, Racehorse owner in AVTAK, an Agent in TLD, Ice Palace guest in DAD and a Spectre member in NTTD.

    An impressive 5 films from Tina Simmons.

    One of my favorite threads here, it's exciting seeing some of these background faces that actually spanned numerous films, disconnected or not. I remember when I realized the computer salesman in GE plays a younger, smirking scientist in the background of the lab in DAF and being wowed by that. Similar feelings here.

    I didn't know that, goes into my memory bank. I'll try not to remember he's also the "I think I've been hurt sir" henchman in Enter the Ninja. Somehow that doesn't sit right with me.

    It'd be fun to do a thread on recurring props, of which there are many.

    Ok, apparently the last time I saw this thread was in 2014, and (who else but)@Thunderfinger points something out I haven't realised at all in all of those years. Just. wow.

    I should have said re-occurring not recurring - how did I get it so wrong?!
