    I'm sorry that noone guessed recently. I like the clues but it didn't click so far.
    All good mate. Not much more I can add clue-wise now except which era/film they are from.

    I think it’s the fidgety soldier sitting across from Bond in the jeep in OP PTS

    It seems so obvious now. Great one!

    That's a great guess and the correct one, but what does this guy have to do with ferrets?

    Clues explained:

    1. People smile at me.
    Bond smiles at me in the jeep, then Bianca smiles at me in the Range Rover.

    2. You can't really tell as we're all sitting, but I'm much shorter than the others.
    Earlier, when Bond is discovered by Colonel Toro, I walk up beside Toro, Bond and the other soldier who would later accompany me in the jeep. I am much shorter than them. You can see me in this photo, to the right:

    3. The stars don't fall - they rise.
    There are star patches on my uniform and helmet. When Bond pulls my parachute, the stars rise.

    4. Let's just skirt the issue, shall we?
    Bianca pulls her skirt up, and I turn back to Bond momentarily to check if it's a trap.

    5. We don't have a shoot-out, but it sure sounds like it.
    We don't have a 'shoot-out' - we have a 'chute out.

    6. Steal male ferrets.
    Another word for 'steal' is 'nick'; male ferrets are called 'hobs'. Nick Hobbs the actor.

    7. Is he pulling my leg? No, something else.
    Bond pulls my parachute cord.

    8. I'm not very good at my job.
    I should be guarding Bond, but...

    9. I clearly like women.
    And Bianca is all woman. (dangerously young, mind you!)

    10. I'm looking quite green for someone who isn't ill.
    I'm in military uniform.

    11. You'll never find me with a map.
    I'm located in a fictional Latin American country.

    12. The chicken and the egg came later.
    After Bond shoots the tyres of the jeep, we see it nearly hit a chicken. Later, the Faberge egg plot.

    Congrats @R1s1ngs0n, the round is yours!

    Thanks @QBranch that was quite an entertaining round.
    I'm taking a little break now, so anyone up for starting a new round is most welcome.

    No worries @R1s1ngs0n, glad you had fun.
