    That's a good guess. And yes, I believe it's the guy in the back of the ambulance @Max_The_Parrot.

    Guess the EON character

    1 You’ll need to put some time and effort into finding me...
    2 But if you want to know where I am just look at me ...
    3 And once you’ve found me, you won’t be staying long
    4 It appears I’m helping out with a little product placement
    5 I’m in constant communication with someone, but you never find out who
    6 I have a habit of repeating myself
    7 My headgear is designed for a different activity
    8 It’s not often the nerves get the better of Bond, but he’s definitely looking worried
    9 I like to take things one at a time

    Could it be the man on top of the ski slope in FYEO, that instructs the skiers when it's their turn to go? Seems to fit nicely.

    Now that’s more like it @pachazo, it is the Olympic ski jump official from FYEO

    1 You’ll need to put some time and effort into finding me...
    (quite a trek with lift and stairs up to the top of the ski jump)
    2 But if you want to know where I am just look at me ...
    (his baseball cap has the Cortina logo on it)
    3 And once you’ve found me, you won’t be staying long
    (as soon as the jump is clear, he sends the next skier down)
    4 It appears I’m helping out with a little product placement
    (several clear logos on clothes, including Ellesse - which Roger Moore later promoted - and the town Cortina)
    5 I’m in constant communication with someone, but you never find out who
    (wears a headset to communicate with other - unknown - officials)
    6 I have a habit of repeating myself
    (says libero each time someone is clear to jump)
    7 My headgear is designed for a different activity
    (baseball cap on a ski jump)
    8 It’s not often the nerves get the better of Bond, but he’s definitely looking worried
    (Bond looking apprehensive at attempting the jump)
    9 I like to take things one at a time
    (only one person allowed on the jump at a time)

    Well done and back with you 👍

    Excellent! Great choice of character and clues. I've thought about playing him myself in the past. He never failed to capture my attention when watching FYEO as a youngster.

    Okay, I think I already know who's next so I'll try to get it up ASAP.

    Here we go again...

    Eon Character :

    1) I have a job for you.
    2) It's not that difficult to lead me to a particular destination.

    4) Traces of gold can be found.
    5) I'm determined to change this!
    6) James Bond will return in... a few minutes.
    7) He made me an offer I could refuse.
    8) I whipped it out, but it ended up being a little premature.
    9) I'm minor character and yet I'm not.

    Incorrect :
    Alec Trevelyan

    Good guess, and thanks for getting us started, but it's not him.

    Not sure about the first two clues but the rest sound like Major Clive?
  • pachazopachazo Make Your Choice
    Posts: 7,314
    Figured that last set would give it away...
    Yes, it's Major Clive from OP!

    1) I have a job for you.
    He tells Khan, "You'll have a job beating that!"

    2) It's not that difficult to lead me to a particular destination.
    To borrow an expression from Goldfinger, Khan has been taking him to the cleaners.

    3) Looking like Bond and acting like Bond are two entirely different things.
    They are dressed identically. Black tie, white jacket.

    4) Traces of gold can be found.
    This is mainly about the Goldfinger similarities. Bond exposing the villain at cheating. The henchman crushing something in his hands. It's also a clue to the golden egg as well though.

    5) I'm determined to change this!
    The outcome of the game. He keeps playing thinking Khan's luck will run out.

    6) James Bond will return in... a few minutes.
    He follows Magda to the bar for a bit and then comes back.

    7) He made me an offer I could refuse.
    He finally refuses Khan's offer to keep playing.

    8) I whipped it out, but it ended up being a little premature.
    His pen and checkbook.

    9) I'm minor character and yet I'm not.
    He is also a Major!

    Great job solving it @Max_The_Parrot
    Sorry to all if I didn't respond quicker. It was a hectic couple of days. Well done to our parrot friend once again, and look forward to what you come up with next.

    The last clue would have been very helpful...but I didn't get it...
    Smart clues, smart bird.

    Thanks all and another good challenge @pachazo I do enjoy watching OP, it’s been a while so I think I’ll make that my next Bond watch.

    I’ll get a new round sorted for tomorrow.

    Ah, the aces strike again! Well done! and cool clues, btw. I knew I was looking at them the wrong way, but couldn't figure the right way out...

    Good luck everyone.

    Guess the EON character

    1. I give Bond a sneak preview of something
    2. I enjoy being the bearer of bad news ...
    3. ... although I’ve got some of my facts wrong
    4. My work today is the opposite of what it usually is
    5. I’m seen flirting with someone who is already spoken for
    6. A small rodent, maybe?
    7. Hair up or hair down? I’ll try both
    8. I say nothing at all during my first encounter with Bond
    9. Either I’ve shrunk or Bond is a long distance away the second time he sees me...
    10. ...and this time I have plenty to say ...
    11. Until I’m rudely interrupted mid-sentence - and that’s the last you’ll see of me!
    12. Bond is a charmer, but the other guy is a real turn off.
