Thanks for that folks!


One other question for you Brian, a question of semantics, I think.

Who played James Bond in the original Casino Royale.

I am unsure whether to put Barry Nelson or not as the programme wasn't actually called Casino Royale, although it was based on the story.....

What d'ya reckon?
 
Brian's answer to the first question is out of date because there was a new winner last night. Sorry, I don't remember her name.


Found it: Victoria Jenkins

You are stuck with the typical professional quiz contestant's dilemma. The proper answer is Barry Nelson. The television episode in which he played American agent Jimmy Bond was called Casino Royale.

In the Charles Feldman mish-mash of a film (and I cleaned that up a bit) James Bond was played by all of:

David Niven
Peter Sellers
Woody Allen
Terence Cooper
and Mata Bond by Joanna Pettet

Personally I'd answer: "In the original cinema film there were a number of James Bond's (list the four men above) but the first actor ever to portay James Bond on screen was Barry Nelson in a US television play of Casino Royale."
 
Cheers Brian - I think I'll go for that.


And thanks to everyone else for your assitance as well. :D Haven't got the answers yet but I believe that the lived in Northumbria is probably the answer to the Mills/Ferry/Johnson question.

Victory is now assured.
 
Poor Macca. He is in a bloody divorce with a one legged ex prostitute psychotic and John is still the most interesting Beatle.
 
There's a new twist to the Macca/Hopalong divorce case.

Apparently, he's got some sort of judgement to prevent the publication of some tapes made by Linda (talking, not singing) where she says things that ALLEGEDLY cast a somewhat different slant on their idyllic marriage.
 
Ferry covered a Beetles song "She's Leaving Home" I think? which then means I've got find a tenuous link into AC/DC. :lol: There's an animal cruelty type link with HMM and Ferry I supose, but since they're on the opposite end of the spectrum, I can't see that one holding together either. HMM was born in Surrey I think, though I've got some notion she was a journo of some description on the local Newcastle paper. The Northumbria connection looks too loose to me, unless they were all linked to a specific place in the county.

Give up, a google enquiry is needed me thinkz

It's interesting that her accusations of bullying etc only came out after she was informed that if she had ever worked as a prostitute and hadn't told her husband then a cout wuld almost certainly rule that she was entitled to not a penny as a divorce settlement.
