Sir Hilary Bray (riot at parties)
Tiger Tanaka
Commander Carter
Hugo Drax
Octopussy

Zorin

I suspect being in the same room as Kerim Bey, Draco and Columbo would be a knockout

Mr Mendel
Dr. Molly Warmflash
Fighting Gypsies
Prof. Dent
Davidov
Mishkin

What was so memorable about Davidov?

Subject: Re: Your favorite characters. Tue Nov 20, 2012 11:58 pm

I liked his desperation. Reminded me a little of Prof. Dent.

Eh, Davidov is about as big as the chauffeur Dr. No sent.

I liked Mishkin, too bad he had such a small role. Originally the role was gonna be Pushkin when Dalton was still on board before being renamed and shortened.

He was a bit like ol' Dent, wasn't he? Just couldn't catch a break, and ultimately got out-smarted by Bond, with pistol shots to the chest!

He's like Dent, minus any personality.

Virtually every Bond-girl but aside from that I got to go with the Fleming inspired supervillains.

In this order

1. Charles Gray as Blofeld
2. Donald Pleasance as Blofeld
3. Doctor No
4. Telly Savalas as Blofeld
5. Goldfinger
6. Mr.Big/Kananga
7. Hugo Drax
8. Scaramanga

Also like the animated wise-cracking Leiters.

Norman Burton,David Hedison and Cec Linder.

Wint, Kidd and Willard Whyte are great too! Wint is my favourite henchman by a landslide. Camp-villainy done to perfection.

I don't think Ali is part of his name. I saw this discussion way back on the old Mi6 board. A guy that knew the language said that she was calling him. "Ali" effectively translated to "come here" or something to that effect.
