    Bond having his massage at Shrublands maybe (TB)

    It's great to have you back after a year! You've been missed.

    None of the above. I’ll also rule out all films mentioned so far and update the clue summary… adding that this is a smallish kind of area, in general.

    Wild stab in the dark but is it in the plane in The Living Daylights?

    Also not TLD. Summarizing for the new page:
    4ceb477b9b02882f1a586862a4515f82eede91b6.jpg
    Clue summary:
    -Not Thunderball, YOLT, LALD, TMWTGG, TSWLM, Moonraker, Octopussy, TLD, LTK, or TWINE.
    -Not in Bond’s flat.
    -Not standard sheets/blankets.
    -Not considered to be a typical bed.
    -This is a generally smallish kind of area.
    -Bond is not in this exact frame, but he is instrumental in the scene and visible interacting with this area before/after this exact shot.

    Not a confident guess here, but I'll say it's the crew quarters on the TWINE sub.

    It's definitely got that bunk bed/hospital bed feel to it. I was going to guess Solitaire's train bunk yesterday but LALD has already been ruled out

    Neither of those. Focus on it being a smaller area- and due to what you’re seeing not being typical blankets/sheets, this is also not commonly considered a bed.

    And I’ll rule out TWINE to help us get there!

    By the way, @Max_The_Parrot - this is a fun game!

    Not sure about exact scene, but I am getting Scaramangas boat in TMWTGG vibes.

    @jobo - I can see that too, but not this one. Eliminating TMWTGG as well.

    Maybe a part of the parachute while it is opening? In MR?

    Wavekrest crew quarters when Bond sneaks aboard?

    More good guesses, but not correct. Let’s also eliminate Moonraker and LTK. We’ll get there!
    Another hint: Bond is not in this exact frame, but he is instrumental in the scene and visible interacting with this area before/after this exact shot.

    I looked at the escape pod curtain from TSWLM, more rounded off sides and doesn't quite match the fabric.

    @RichardTheBruce - that’s smart thinking! This area is smaller than that. Let’s go ahead and knock out TSWLM as well.

    Absolutely stumped, but it looks like the Miami blue of Goldfinger, a fleeting glance of a sheet draped over a sun lounger at the hotel maybe (I mean, I'll try anything at this stage!)

    That's not it either. To keep things moving, I'm zooming out to more than a quarter frame. Eagle eyes may catch it now!

    Cool. It was the upper right corner of the envelope that gave it away in the larger image.
    I don't have time for a new round before tomorrow evening. If someone has an image ready, feel free to go with it.

    Bravo @goldenswissroyale ... and as for you @JTW for putting us through such torture (and for coming up with such a great puzzler) ... ;)

    I thought someone might recognize the pattern on those decorative blankety things lining the tomb case thing.

    I don’t think it looks quite right but have to throw this out anyway…
    A bust from Whittaker’s collection in TLD?
