Charles Gray was Dikko Henderson in YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE and Blofeld in DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER.
This one counts. In Octopussy, M’s real name was Admiral Myles Messervy.
Ah. I thought you were replying to post #12 and missed mine. No idea on the second female.
Good one!.
Clew: Character initials are VL and HR
Even without those hints (to Vesper Lynde and Honey Rider), I knew it was Ursula Andress.
UA
edit - beaten to it.
edit again - clew?
The initials gave it to me. Kicking myself.
Quite a few, as has been noted. There’s also Ed Bishop, who played Klaus Hergesheimer (cjhecking on radiation shields…") in Diamonds are Forever and an officer in You Only Live Twice
And, of course, Walter Gotell played S.P.E.C.T.R.E. goon Morzeny in From Russia with Love before playing General Gogol in a bunch of other Bond movies.
There are others.
Hah! And here’s a listing of them. But you have to sift out the actors in the same roles:
Besides the ones noted above, there are:
Martine Beswick in From Russia With Love and Thunderball
Tsai Chin in You Only Live Twice and Casino Royale (2006)
Michael G. Wilson in cameos in 14 different Bond film (!)
I’m sure this isn’t an exhaustive list – they don’t have Ed Bishop in it.
:eek: I recognized her from The Joy Luck Club, but had no idea she was Ling!
Also an extra in a crowd scene in A View to a Kill, or so I’ve read.
And let’s not forget Shane Rimmer. He was a submarine commander in The Spy Who Loved Me, and had uncredited roles in Diamonds Are Forever and You Only Live Twice (unlike Maud Adams, he appeared with Connery and Moore). I would swear he had a speaking role in YOLT, as the ground controller of one of the hijacked spacecraft. Don’t remember who he played in DAF.
While we’re on the subject, what TV series had guest appearances by two Bond henchmen?
And they missed Burt Kwouk! Never mind playing Cato opposite Inspector Clouseau; he was Mister Ling in GOLDFINGER and Spectre #3 in YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE – and that’s without even counting him in CASINO ROYALE, alongside Vladek Sheybal of FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE.
No one’s even gonna take a stab at it?
Okay.Gilligan’s Island; Richard Kiel (Jaws) and Harold Sakata (Oddjob) played visitors to the island.
