    And off we go again. Three clues today then one per day thereafter. Named character from Eon film as always:


    1. My story has been told many times by many faces.

    2. My size has led to disappointment in the past.

    3. My mouth got me into all kinds of trouble.

    Tania?

    Um yes. I'm clearly losing my touch.

    Her bed scene has been used to screen test new actors for many later films. She was one inch too tall to become a ballerina. Her mouth gets her into trouble with Klebb but attracts Bond.

    Over to you for (hopefully) something harder, MayDay.

    Sorry about the delay (oh, the joy of A levels).
    Anyhow, here's two clues-

    1. I'm a life saver, but not out of good will
    2. Some may say that I'm from a corny Bond film

    The guy who also played Mr Solo in GF? No to that.
  • The guy who also played Mr Solo in GF? No to that.

    Just as a correction.

    Martin Benson played Mr Solo.
    Marc Lawrence played the thug in DAF (and also the assassin in TMWTGG).

    ;-)

    Ah, of course! I'll always thought they were the same person!

    Anymore guesses?

    Shady Tree (a.k.a. St. Peter) rescuing Bond from the furnace?

    Bingo!

    It is indeed.

    (A corny= Acorn, Shady Tree and his acorns)

    These rounds are going like wildfire!

    Wow! And I didn't catch the "acorn" reference, but DAF was the first film to spring to mind.

    Great job! Blizzard rounds lately. ;)
  • Excellent! I didn't catch the acorn reference either, but very clever of you!

    I'll need a short while to think of another character now. Watch this space...
  • Okay, new character.

    1. I try—but fail—to lead the East.

    Interesting! I was not finding any Eastern connection.

    OK, I'll guess: Col. Moon
  • It's not Elliot Carver or Col. Moon.
  • Gen Orlov?
  • Not General Orlov.

    He's already been guessed as Col. Moon

    Ok was confused. I thought that was referring to General Moon, my bad.
  • Not Scaramanga, and yes, Graves falls under Col. Moon, so not Graves either.
  • Another clue?

    Next clue:

    1. I try—but fail—to lead the East.
    2. I was involved in an assassination attempt.


    Incorrect guesses:

    Elliot Carver
    Col. Moon/Gustav Graves
    General Orlov
    Scaramanga

    Hai Fat?
  • edited September 2014 Posts: 6,844
    Not the LALD cab driver or Hai Fat.

    Also, just to clarify, this is a named character. I don't recall whether the LALD cab driver had a name.
