    This is a tough one..I keep thinking about clue 9, and i cant think of any other 'Major' that hasn't been mentioned. So, i'm back to thinking 'Minor character'. Is it Midge, who was one of Octopussy's guards?. The girl who played her, 'Cherry Gillespie', was once a member of dance troupe 'Pan's People'. So that might explain clue 13, and going by what they wore to protect Octopussy, she could definately do with some new clothes..

    It's not Midge.

    It's neither of those I'm afraid (added names to the list).

    There's someone called Sergeant Stagg in the cast list of The Living Daylights. Can't think where he fits in in the movie, but the name fits a couple of the clues...
  • I look through all the clues and can't get near a definitive answer. Went for Vijay from Octopussy in the end, but no surprise if incorrect

    I feel like you have it right Perdogg. I think her name was Irina, Valentin's mistress. Waiting for Willy.
  • edited October 2013 Posts: 6,396
    And we have a winner! But it's not Irina from Goldeneye.

    Congratulations to @Anon for guessing correctly -

    270px-Stagg.jpg

    Sgt. Stagg from The Living Daylights

    Clues:

    1. I follow orders not instincts

    A loyal and obedient soldier. (The above line is also in reference to TLD).
    2. I was thwarted by a known enemy
    He is killed by Pushkin, whom he had met earlier on.
    3. I was a witness to one of the 7 Deadly Sins
    Gluttoney - He's stood at ease whilst Whittaker devours a huge feast, particularly lobster and proceeds to talk whilst chewing! Such bad table manners.
    4. Close but no cigar
    He took aim at Bond and was about to fire when he was shot.
    5. My boss is all around me
    When he meets Pushkin in the hallway he is surrounded by waxwork models of Whittaker
    6. I like to sing-a-long to The Sound Of Music
    A stag would like to sing about "A doe. A deer. A female deer..."
    7. I hope I don't upset the Status Quo
    Status Quo was the clue and their song - "You're in the Army now...Oh, oh you're in the Army...now"
    8. I could really do with some new clothes
    He's only seen wearing the same uniform throughout
    9. You're all thinking Major character. Think minor.
    Stagg is a minor character (and see #12)
    10. You Know My Name (or do you?)
    His full name is never spoken but it is revealed in the closing credits
    11. I assumed it was for my boss but turns out it wasn’t.
    I took a telephone call from Kara and gave it to my boss but the call was actually for Koskov.
    12. There is a bigger hint in clue #9, which you may have overlooked.
    The clue was indeed the capital 'M' in major. A minor rank compared to a Major would be a Sergeant.
    13. I like to dance to Prince, S Club 7, Pink and The Black Eyed Peas
    They have all released songs with Party in the title. Stag Party!
    14. I share a connection with the first Doctor Who
    William Hartnell played the title role in the very first Carry On film - Carry On Sergeant.
    15. I hope I'm not going to be tied up, stripped naked and abandoned by my friends...
    A common prank usually associated with the groom-to-be on his Stag Night.

    Great round everybody. Thank you all.

    Over to you @Anon.

    Blimey, I won! Cheers.

    Right then, start of a new round - here's a clue;

    Sounds like I could be a Cuban.
